 Mir. Smith will be here several days. He is travelling for. his health, and visiting with friends along the route. When asked yesterday concerning the probable attitude of the new Mexican government towards horse racing at Tijuana he refused to give a definite opinion, but vouchsafed the belief that the sport will be continued when the eastern meets are finished. His req sons for this belief are founded on the facts that racing at Tijuana was con- ducted according to the best standards and that it was not allied with the other forms of amusement there.

by nearly every theatrical organization using a repertoire.
 It is, in it's picture form, a really delightful and refreshing entertains- ment. The comedy is clean and fast. the situations decidely clever, and the action sustained to the surprise climax.
 The supporting cast includes Wanda Hawley, Sylvia Ashton. Leo White and Walter Heirs.
 Charles Murray is starred in the Mack Sennett added comedy, The Speak Easy" while the Patne News is being shown on the same bill.
 Ramona
 Harry T. Mercy has in 'In Honor's Web" playing engagement at the Ramona for today and tomorrow, a particularly strong modern story, and one that cannot but entrench him in the hearts of his audiences as a very capable and finished emotional actor.
 The story revolves around the eter- nal triangle, although the triangle is not entirely of his own making-he being rather the victim than the aggressor. Nevertheless, when the bubble bursts. to shield the woman in the case, he assumed the blame, and is punished. Silence on the altar of sacrifice is the price he paid for a woman's honor, @ silence misconstrued by those with whom he came in con- tact, and a silence tha cost him months of misery and suffering. But the manhood won out in the long run, and the reward was we'll worth the suffering he had endured. 1t forms a compelling story, rich in heart inter est and human appeal, and finds Mercy is one of his strongest studies.
 William Duncan furnishes the added attraction in "The Silent Avenger.''

THE ATHLETIC CLUB

The organization of an athletic club
among the men of Main street is a
new idea which is fast gaining in
popularity. Already large number
have signed up, and it is expected that
the list will soon include over so
names.
1t is planned to equip the Co. "a"
armory, over the Jensen & Halsted
garage, with complete line of ath-
letic paraphanalia, and to have the
members of the new club share the
use of it all with the members of
Co. az. Besides the athletic equip
ment, there will be small club room
on that floor for the business men
and clerks and shower baths for the
use of all members
This will give the business men
and clerks of the city an opportunity
to enjoy the benefits of well equip
ped gymnasium, handily situated, and
at the same time unite them with Co.
"A" to the mutual benefit of both.
Co. "a" will have the duty of keep
ing the rooms and equipment in con-
dition for use, and the place will
always be available for the club
members except when used for drill
or for public entertainment by the
soldiers.
