Georges Carpentier
 At the Eagle Today
 Biz Feature Picture

Georges Carpenter, heavyweight champion of Europe by grace of his victory over Joe Beckett last year, this city as an actor of the silversheet in "The Wonder Man." the Robert son-Cole production which opened at the Central theater Friday and will be the feature attraction at the Eagle theater today and Monday.
 His field being strictly the drama, the reviewer is in no position to com ment adequately on NJ. Carpenters ability as fighter. but he can say and truthfully so-that NJ. Carpen- tier. regarded solely on the strength of his performance last night, is a. capable and convincing actor. Had he not chosen pusilism as his sphere the noted visitor from France might have achieved as great a success as movie actor as he has in his own calling.
 NJ. Carpenter, with his blonde locks and dimpled smile, and his well-set-up and strictly tailored form. is a note- worthy advent to the screen. As the hero in The Wonder Man." an American society drama he gives a capital interpretation of French secret service man at work in the very heart of diplomatic and fashionable Washington.
 How Carpenter solves the riddle which is the basis of the plot of the Robertson-Cole picture should not be divulsed, but it will not detract from the interes of the story to state that in the many scenes of fashionable life in which Carpenter is seen he is always the courL:. dignified gentle man that you have nicured after hay ing read the slowinc reports of the French idols arrival in Az, erica. his sayings and doinss
 Observing the really clever acting of this rather remarkable perscn. one can hardly believe that he had been in the prize ring for fourteen. years and that he is the contender for the worlds championship title nwo hold by Jack Dempsey. Lovers of boving are given a rare and unusual oppor tunity to see this strange anomaly Of the ring in action. Besides appearing in a form-showing exhibition in the early part of the picture he fights

Mir. Raccoon, used in several of the scenes of "The Whirlpool" the latest Select picture in which the versatile young star. Alice Brady will appear at the Lyric theatre on Saturday. was the international cause for holding up the scenes for at least an hour while star, cast and director tried to persuade him from .his hid ing-place around the corner of rock.
 The raccoon, in cage, had been left at the foot of a mountain with Miss Virginia Lee and her mother. Mrs. Louise Lee. on guard, while part of the company climbed farther up for several scenes.
 Suddenly Virginia's voice rose to the top in the anguished vail: "Oh, help me. somebody! The raccoon has gotten out of his cage and I can't get him back"
 Raccoons with histronic talent do not hide behind every rock in North Carolina, so the company dashed with one accord to the pathetic scene. Miss Lee in tears. was direct ing her mother who, on her knees, was attempting to wheedle a very nonchalant raccoOn from his seclu- sion behind very sufficient-looking stone.
 Time rolled away-not so the rock and the raccoon remained firmly on location. playing prisoner, though every excited member of the cast ex- pected to see him disappear forever into private life.
 Miss Brady coaxed and pleaded. 10 nc avail.
 "I suppose we ought to smoke him out" said Miss Brady who always knows what ought to be done, any way; and after far more smoke than should have been necessary for enc small raccoon had been used. he strolled out with dignity and allow ed himself to be caged.

Nothing But Truth"
 Promises Cure Blues
 At Eagle on Thursday

Nothing But the Truth" the riot ous farce starring that inimitable commedianh Taylor Holmes, will be theatre Tuesday and Wednesday nd Eagle heatre Thursday. This is perturbation of Frederic s. Isham's diverting novel that was made into a stage play for William Collier by James Montgomery, and it is an nounced as sure cure for the blues The management assures its patrons of entertainment of the most hilari- GUS kind in this screen version of a famous farce, for it is a vehicle ideal ly suited to the fun-making talents of Taylor Holmes.
 The farce concerns the adventures of Bob Bennett who goes week on a wager telling nothing but the truth to everyone he meets: and aside from getting him cordially disliked by ev- erybody. he gets his three best friends ''in bad" with their wives.
 Taylor Holmes is the happiest sort of a choice for Bob Bennett. for he is the character all over again in all his many and amusing eccentricities As a farceur Taylor Holmes is ab- solutely without peer. and he is seen to uproarious advantage in this new est and funniest of screen produc tions.
 In MT Holmes support are such we'll known screen players as Elsie Mackaye. Ned Sparks. Marcelle Car roll Ben Hendricks, Edna Phillips Radcliffe Steele, Elizabeth Garrison Charles Craig. Colin Campbell and Beth Franklyn.
 Nothing But the Truth" was di rected by David Kirkland and photo graphed by Jacob A. Badaracco. II

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 29.-Pennsyl-
vania for Harding by 100000 majority
is the fond hope cherished by the Re-
publican organization. They are also
rraying to the goddess Of political
fortunes for full Republican delega-
tion to Congress, but in this they are
reckoning without the new woman vot-
er and her pencil. The same is true
Of the vote for Senator Boies Penrosc,
who is candidate for reelection.
The city as q problem in political
mathematics is the easiest one in the
Republican party's test. Statistics. #
available, probably would show ratio
OF increased majority for the Repub-
lcan ticket almost parallel with the
increased registration due to the ad-
d.tion of woman voters. Men ia
miliar with political conditions predict
Harding's majority in Philadelphia will
be close TO 175,000.
The Republicans will elect a new set
of state representatives and a part Of
the membership in the state Senate.
Few voters, aside from those with
political connections, pay any at
tcntion to the state Legislature in Penn
sylvania The Democrats go through
the formality OF naming a ticket for
organization purposes, but in only a
few upstate districts arc they able
to elect genuine Democrats.
So lax have the voters become that
they permit the state to 90 undiS-
trictcd for Congressional representa- :
tiyes for ten years OF. stretch. Four
congressman at Large will be chosen
and unless the Legisl;. ture is forced
t. perform its duty as provided by
the state constitution the same per-
formance will be gone through until
Il new generation is born.
Hope is entertained, however, that
the new woman voter will inject into
the affairs of Pennsylvania respon-
siveness to the common political prac-
tees, as carried on in states like New
York But to accomplish that result,
she will have to leave the dyed-in-the-
wool organization legislators at home.
The campaign has been listess ef-
fair. Governor Cox almost ignored the
state as a factor in his fight for the
Presidency, and the Republicans are
so cocksure that they nave made little
effort except in districts where they
wish to displace the seven Democratic &c
congressman.

tricts are working hard where they

His Revised Vi e7U of the South

THE editor of the Putnam Patriot, which
is published in Putnam County, Conn,
recently has returned from tour of
the South that was to him an eye-opener. He
writes: Years ago, during the days when
the South was still under the torpor produced
by the Civil War, when the atmosphere Gre
ated by George w. Gable, Thomas Nelson
Page and Hopkinson Smith was yet a truth,
some merry drummer coined famous par
ody on Dixie It ran something like this:
AWAY down South in the land of cot
ton,
Bum hotels and. business rotten
etc. ,"
The Jingle sprang into instant popularity
because it was so brimful Of truth, accord
ing to the Putnam Patriots editor, and this
picture of the South fingers in the mind OF
many a Northerner.
But the Connecticut scribe now laments
that the author of the quoted parody cannot
be resurrected and taken 'a-marching
through the South in 1920" AS he sees it,
zone conclusive fact that single voyage of
vision demonstrated clearly was that the
New Southland it is as times painfully new
COntfaSC0d WIN the Olu-lS very idpluly
forging ahead of the Old North in many di-
rections and that we of New England, in
our century old complacence, are losing many
...4uS OF progress which the Southerner OF
the second generation since the War has
gained and benefited by in a single decade
of commercial and industrial revival"
Bum hotels and rotten business are
as much Of a memory today in the South as
is the Ku Klux Khan, according to the OBJ
servant New Highlander. The "colonade-
fronted and rockingham veranda" type OF
hotels that formerly sheltered the traveller,
has been replaced by hostelres, modern in
every detail and affording unsurpassed serv-
ice. The narrow trails through the red clay
hills and sand beds that formerly served an
inconsiderable traffic have given way to
good roads that carry the wheels of per-
centage of automobiles that is astonishing"
1.-THE South has learned, too fact which we
are rapidly forgetting in our Northern cit
ies,' remarks the Putnam Patriot '"That is
the necessity for the high maintenance of
public works. Those who remember the
grass grown streets of the old South can but
be astounded at the miles of excellent pave
ment that have been built and are being
splendidly maintained in the principal South
ern cities Above all, the South appreciates
fully the value of municipal cleanliness and
ordef. these are lessons which we in the
solloarlty or our years of comfortable prog
ress are prone to forget. The South has
changed. 1t is advancing by leaps and
pounds. 1t is losing the old atmosphere of
the novelist and cavalier. 1t is, however,
developing an American quality which has
us basis on all the tradition of the past"
The editor of the Putnam Patriot is right
The South has changed, though her devotion
to the "brave days of old" is deathless. No
section of the country has shown greater de-
velopment or more real progress in the last
two decades. The commercial and indus
trial awakening has been general, and the
