AT THE REPUBLIC TONIGHT

1.-THE Gay Lord Quex," from the
noted stage success by Sir Arthur
Wing Pinero, presents Tom Moore
in the stellar role in this new Gold
wyn picture which will be shown al
the Republic Theatre tonight.
In this production, Tom Moore is
seen as the type of wooer that popu-
lar opinion has named its favorite
His adventures in Cupid's realm are
frequent and merry. and just spicy
enough to bring out the humorous
side of his entanglements when his
several sweethearts are brought to-
gether.
The action of the picture is quick
and spirited, and SO well does the
star enact his part that sympathy
swings wholly to Lord Quex when he
gets into difficulties. He has an ag-
onizing time trying to prove his sin
cerity and reformation to his prom
ised bride in the face of most ac-
cusing circumstances, but his efforts
are rewarded and all ends happily.
Supporting Mr.. Moore in THE Gay
Lord Quex" are such favorites as
Gloria Hope, Naomi Childers and
Hazel Daily and Sidney Ainsworth.

MORAL CRUSADE
FOR MORE CLOTHES

Summer clothes have slways been
the subject of jocose comment. es-
pecially the bathing suit; but this
summer they seem to be more than
ever to the fore What with a New
Orleans clergyman refusing to per-
form the m rriage ceremony for one
bride until she had "arayed herself
properly" with the dean OF Hood Col
legc demanding 10 see II evening
dresses before they are worn in pub
lie and with the police at various re-
sorts chasing unsatisfactory attired
bathers by the score off the be ches.
1t seems like coalition of church.
State and school gainst that time
honored and exceedingly capable trio,
the world. the flesh and the devil
While the public will watch the out
come of the summer clothing contro-
yersy with more amusement than con-
Germ, there is very real question of
public morality involved. The in
fiuence of immodest dress upon the
young is undoubtedly bad, but it is
one of the hardest things in the world
to reach by law. Where the finger of
fashion points and personal inclina-
ton follows, the law has herd sledd-
ing. Public opinion could bring about
a quick reform, but public opinion re-
fuses to take the matter seriously.
What is needed is greater sanity on
the part of those who set the fashions;
but common sense has never played a
conspicuous part in fashion and prob
ably never will. The eccentricity of
dress which has been prevalent for
the past few years is doubtless only
another manifestation of the national
hysteria which is part of our legacy
from the war But American women
are intrinsically sane, and this will be
outgrown, as has many other and
greater evils. - Philadelphia Public
Ledger.

Use OF RAD|UM;;
WORLDS GREAT FIND
Most Remarkable Discovery In
Physics, Says DR..
Kelly
AN EXPENSIVE CURE

Radium is growing in Importance
in the medical world and now is firm
ly imbedded in recognized medical
practice. according to Dr. Howard A
Kelly. writing in the Journal of the
Medical Society OF New Jersey. In
his introduction Or. Kelly estimates
that radium is the most remarkable
single discovery in physics. chemistry
and medicine which has ever been
made in the history of the world.
After explaining the characteristics
of the alpha. beta and gamma rays OF
radium and the many methods of ap-
plication of the radium itself or its
emanations, DR. Kelly tells of the eff
fects of the different treatments and
then enumerates the diseases which
apparently respond most readily to
radium treatment.
Humorous growths, such as lympho-
sarcoma, enlargement of the lympha-
tic glands, such as Hodgkin's disease
various kinds of other tumors and
several forms of cancer are mention
ed particularly as having yielded to
radium treatment.
Throughout his article he en-
phasizes the fact that radium is q
dangerous thing in the hands of any
but an expert and that, as in sur
gerry and medicine, the earlier a dis
ease is brought under treatment the
more likely is recovery.
1t is also revealed in the article
that there is another substance Sc
closely resembling radium that even
the United States Bureau of Standards
cannot distinguish between the two
The other is called mesothorium, and
has, apparently, the same properties
as radium The difference is that II
lasts about eight years, while radium
lasts about two thousand years, and
that mesothorium was worth about
$4,000 a gram before the war, COM
pared with $4,000 for a gram OF
radium. Dr. Kelly says that appar'
emily more or less mesothorium is
being sold as radium, the sellers
reaping an enormous profit.

For Weak Ankles

A simple exercise for weak ankles,
that may be taken night and morning
is to rise on the toes and then gradu-
ally lower the foot to the floor. Re
pest this 10 or 20 times.
The movement develops strength
and endurance in the muscles and
bones. Another special exercise is to
raise one foot'off the floor and hold II

movement for bodily poise and 10

on one foot while the other is raised
some distance off the floor. The arms
