NEWS OF THE THE A TRES
RELIEVED CHEATER-TOMOR-

No better acted or produced photo
play has been seen upon the screen
this wear than "The Beloved Cheat
er" the Robincole-Cole special, Wh1cn
comes to- the Grand theatre Tor TWO
DAYS, beginning tomorrow. This L. J.
Gasnir picture has been pronounced
and not unjustly, one Of the ten Dig
pictures of the year, from all stud1os'
and once again it offers in type
which fits him exactly, that screen
idol, Lew Cody, who is OF the hand
some bachelor type.
In 1.-The Beloved Cheater' Mr.
Cody plays a man who is just tnat'
He knows all the girls, loves them ALL
trifles with them, wins them, casts
them off, and goes back to his Chi
nese valet, who, he maintains can
sew on a button or warm pair OF
slippers with greater diligence and
care than the most faithful OF wives:
The reputation which The Beloved
Cheater" has won as a LADY killer
is directly responsible for the compl-
cations of the very original story told
in this picture.
Briefly it is related that the fiance
of Kingdom Challor, friends OF 1.-The
Beloved Cheater," is engaged to mar
nv a girl who says she will never
give her fiance kiss until they are
welded.

POLITICIANS UNCERTAIN
HOW WOMEN WILL
VOTE IN NOVEMBER
W;seazres Wonder Which Way
New Electorate Will Sway
in Their First Vote
By l.. G.. Martin

UNITED Press Correspondent
Washington, April S.-Facing the
that the Women of the
United States will vote next Novem-
Der, politicians are seriously taking
stock OF what the female vote will
mean.
That it will have more than usual
Importance because of some of the
issues of this years campaign is rec
ognized by all political observers
here.
The strong probability that prohi-
bition enforcement will be one OF
the issues, and that the treaty and
the league Of nations will form an
other is one Of the reasons more than
perfunctory attention is being given
to plans for capturing the woman's
vote.
Time was when the "drys" regard
that both men and women want
cast in their favor. But from reports
brought in from various parts of the
country to party headquarters here.
the women this year would be just
as likely to vote for a more liberal
policy of prohibition enforcement as
their menfolks.
The same is true of the treaty is
sue. Advocates of the league laid
much store by the fact that the wo-
men of the country, if they ever get
a chance to vote on the league ques-
tion, would be overwhelmingly for it
as q war preventative.
But political scouts reports that
the women are no more enthusiastic
about the treaty than the men, but
that bottle men and women want
some kind Of league or organization
that win prevent war. 4
So that-when the political wise
men here sit down to figure out the
effect Of the women's vote this year,
they can't do it, They say the old
saying that women will vote as the
men vote has been exploded, and that
the women will form an indepen-
dent electorate. Not only are

classified and the effect of their vote
on any particular issue might in a
degree be measured, politicians said.
But as things stand, If the women get
the vote next November, they are
due to be "courted" by both parties
most assidiouly.
Women speakers will be sent out
in large numbers, to WORK with small
audiences of club women, and civic
organizations of women.
In presenting campaign issues, the
woman vote will be played up to on
the cost of living and kindred issues,
political leaders said.
