Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1920-05-01

This is one of the most unusual stories that has ever reached the screen, some thing on the order of Marie Corellis fan tastic tale of The Vendetta, yet it has a better ending and does not leave such gruesOme feeling. He came back from the grave and when he played the "Phontom Melody, his sweetheart rec ognized him through his hair had turn ed white. A picture dealing with two soldiers but not war picture. Also a Briggs comedy of boyhood days.
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1920-05-01

Here we have, the very best comedy droraa that ever was screeEai. Al.o-
 lutely guaranteed to bring relief to grouches, peeves and ingrown dispOsi- tions Fine for that heart-achy, down. n-the-mouth feeling. One dose cures a pain in the conscience and turns blue funk into a rainbow of joy. Use freely afternoon and night. A picture with a thousand laughs. Also something new in Nature Picture taken in natual colors and the most beautiful ever seen.

beautiful story, full of heart interest in which Elaine Hammerstein takes the leading aprt. Miss Hammerstein has won a first place upon the screen all though young in years and screen ex- perience she has forged ahead until now she is considered by the critics as one of the coming big ones. Look out for her, as she is sure to be among ,he very best. Also another Episode of the thrilling serial, which has been the best one we have yet shown.

That lies within the tomb,
The soul has been transplanted.

Though she has passed away,
But think Of her as dwelling
In realms Of endless day.

Where walls are built Of precious gems
And streets Of purest gold
There God shall wipe away all tears
With His own blessed hand
And living waters ever flow
Within that happy land.

Charity at chrlatmas

There can be no hOlier sentiment at
tached to a gift on Christmas day
than charity, for charity combines all
that is good and tender in human
ideal, impulse and emotion. There IS
a double Joy in charity, for it blesses
two. It not only gives happiness In
the act itself, but It qulckens and de-
velOps, for all after life, pure. pre-
cious qualities Of mind and heart that
are a well-spring Of peace. Charity
comes nearer to spanning the immeas-
urable space between the sin of this
world and the holiness of heaven
than any other blessing that mankind
knows.
An ideal Christmas which would
really mean genuine good will among
men is one in which none should be
cold, hungry, shelterless or frlendless
one in which they who have would
think first of them who have not
