At THE CRESCENT

Beautiful little Marguerite Clark,
who has been called the sweetest girl
on the screen, will appear" at the Cres-
cent theatre today and tomorrow In a
new Paramount picture entitled,
Girls" The photoplay is based upon
a delightful comedy by the late Clyde
Fitch, n noted dramatist, and affords
the charming little star a spleL.fid We
hicle. The story Is original in plot and
is considered to be one of Clyde Fitch's
best plays. 1t concerns the attempts
of a young and beautiful self-styled
man-hater to dodge Cupid's darts, n
her final surrender to the god of love.
Larry SeInon.
Thu most fashionable restaurant In
the city is always the easiest place in
which to get a free meal, according to
revelations made by Vitagraph's latest
Larry Semon comedy film, THE Head
Waiter This production, which will
be the feature attraction at the CreS-
cent Theatre today and tomorrow.
Larry Semon, the funny mar star Of
1.-THE Head Waiter" reveals in this
picture that If a person is hungry and
broke al the same time, all he has to
do is walk into the finest restaurant
in the city, order the biggest meal on
the menu, and then sign a check and
walk out. The process as portrayed
by Larry, results in some sidesplitting
comedyj but 1t also recalls exploits
really performed in New York at diff
ferent times by audacious young men
who were free with the pen and ink
and who ended in court.

WAGON TRACKS" TODAY
At THE ROYAL THEATRE

Where will you find a greater
screen hero than 'BIll" Hart, the
famous motion picture star? Echo
answers. where? In his newest Art
craft picture, Wagon Tracks," which
will be shown at the Royal theatre
today and tomorrow, he portrays q
guide In the fifties. leading a wagon
train across the deserts and noun
tains toward the golden west by way
of the historic old Santa Fe- trail.
There are battles with Indians. a
struggle with gamblers, a revenge
motive, and lov and adventure ga
lore. Withal it is an accurate his
torical record of q period of Ameri-
can life that Is romantic to h last
degree-that period when men and
women of every walk of life trekked
to the sunset cro the wild lands,
peopled by hostile Indians, herds of
buffalo and threatened with every
possible danger.
The role selected for the star is a
great one-that of a typical Plains
man-of the Kit Carson type of
frontiersman. He is a man who fears
nothing. who is quick to champion a
just cause and as quick to punish
those he deems guilty of wrong.
Jane Novak makes a charming hero
Inc and there is a fine supporting
cast. Lambert Hillyer directed the
picture which was written expressly
for Mr.. Hart by C. Gardner Sullivan.

Girls, talk about girls, well in the
first place there Is Alice Morley. the

and tell stories that will keep the

couple are the Ticilds, Sonia AMI
Florence. The former does a jazz

their impersonation of the Dolly Sis

and daintiness. AS far as singing Is
concerned, when 1900 people break
out at once into a round of applause

II PEOPLE PERISH,

awful truth of the picture drawn by
the chairman Of the Red. Cross. Gem
trail and eastern Europe, is, as Mr..
Dawson said, the scene OF zone of the
most terrible tragedies in. the history
of the human race" 1t should be also
the scene Of one OF the most disastrous
political follies in the history of Euro
pean diplomacy. These stricken. lands,
idle, wasted, and rotten with. disease,
are none other than the sanitary cor
don of the Versailles peace. The
%wretched peoples are one of the essen
tial links Of the blockade, and it's chief
victim. Even while they starve and
decay they are whipped into an insane
war by criminal men for whom no pun
ishment and no contempt Isl adequate.
With the best will in the world it is
not possible to bring light and life and
happiness to these people until the
criminals in Warsaw and Paris and
London are stripped of their power for
evil. There can be no social %restora-
ton without political peace. There can
only be succor, and that Of the most
temporary kind. But if the problem il
to be met, relief must be accompanied
by a radical change in the major poll
tics of Europe. The people perish be

''REAL AMERICANISM"

BY BASIL M, MANLY
Noted Economist and Former Joint

0OdEOs
The great adventure in economic and

the Nonpartisan League is real Ameri-
canism.

ting into effect a new declaration of
Observation-Disclosures of the f.

can agriculture, trade and industry.
Individual enterprise has been the

vidual, rich OF poor. will have an OPP
p%ortunity for the full development Of

The recent decision of the Sup eliie

Sugar 2 Cents a Pound in cuhS.

S08Hs SSsSO VVotO III ~Vo0s' H
Last winter when l was In Cuba
the president of Cuba sent me around
to the sugar plantations, some OF.
which he himself owns. 1 saw 1907
900 sacks Of sugar packed underneath
sheds that were already filled. 1 saw
$500. 900 tons of raw sugar in Cuba,
{ asked n Of the superintendent:
Tell me just what you can sell that
sugar f. o. b. for and he whispered
to me: Two cents a pound and then
there are millions of profit in it for
u.s.
Arriving in this country again I
inquired of some of our sugar refners
and was told that they could refine
this sugar for three-fourths Of a cent
per pound.
There is no sugar shortage, or at
least should not be any. Early this
year 100000 pounds of sugar were
lost in New York city. By this I.mean
that this amount of sugar disap-
peared. Neither the government o
any n else appears to know where
it went to. 1t simply disappeared
from the market. In face of this we
are so busy, so absorbed by our daily
business that W. allow things like
this to go on and continue to pay the
price.
GAS a result of this condition the
world is going to pieces. We can
save it. We can do it if we want to.
We must think clearly about it, frank
ly, coldly, and when the voting time
comes, cast u ballot for the common
good" -

DANGEROUS TO READ"
SAYS SUFFRAGE PAPER

In these days OF the c%apitalistic
press, when the vicious and ~subversive
interests carry on their subtly poison
GUS propaganda through the pages of
the daily newspapers, there is a grave
danger in learning how to read. The
constant perusal of falsehoods results
in a biased attitude of mind, and, since
much of the matter that meets the
eyes of the average American at his
breakfast table is without any founda-
ton of truth, it might be well for him
in order to keep his mind clear.
1t will be Of interest to the readers
of the Maryland Suffrage News to get
the straight facts included in this
issue regarding the Farmers Nonpar-
tisan League, for the garbled state
ments chronicled by the daily news
papers in regard to this organization
are so wide of the truth.
The opponents of the Nonpartisan
League, like the opponents of suffrage,
use IS their principal weapons tho
venOmOus darts Of falsehood. They
accuse the Nonpartisan Leaguers of
being Bo%lshevists, Free Lovers, l. w.
WIS, and the like, but they consistently
fail to adduce any proof Of their accu-
sations. They also attack the patriot
ism of the members of the League, and
claim that they are pro-German, or
pro-Japanese, or what not. All OF.
which is arrant nonsense, but very
convincing when seen in print.
While the American newspapers are
permitted without penalty to print
such malevolent untlIthS, the only way
out seems to be to fall in with the
present %educational standards in Mary
land and to refuse rising generations
the opportunity Of learning how to
read
Plunderbunding.
10 upholders of existing economic
injustice all proposed changes look
alike. The proposition may be sound
or %unsoundr fundamental or superb
cial, desirable or undesirable, if back
Of it is, a sincere desire to relieve vic
tins of predatory privilege, the plum
derbund will fight it. And in fighting
the plunderbund is INSCRIPTIONS. In
New York state it fights with equal
vigor and venom the timid welfare"
measure pushed by the League of
Women Voters, headed by Mrs. Frank
Vanderbilt, and the voters of five legis-
lative districts who have elected So
cialist representatives. In North Da-
kota it fights the Nonpartisan League.
In Minnesota it also fights the Non
partisan League, and happening to
have the power, does not scruple to
prosecute speakers. and writer's. In
California it fights the single-tax
amendment, and in order to, gain its
point, strives to deprive the people of
the initiative and referendum. And
throughout the nation it is actively en-
gagged in stirring up ignorant preju-
dice against radical thought Of all
kinds, and waging a formidable and
dangerous fight to turn the United
States into a duplicate of Russia under
the Czar.-Maryland Suffrage News.
