 The opening title announces this yie- ture as an R. A Walsh production Ii Is developed from Paul Armstrongs and Wilson Nizner's famous stage play, The Deep Purple" and is an excellent screen melodrama, frSe from the cheap trfckeTy and exaggerated situations which usually feature film thrillers.
 In the cast are Miriam Cooper in the leading role, with Stuart Sage playing opposite and Vincent Serrzno as the villain. Miss Cooper makes a mosf ap- pealing country girl and Stuart Sage Is real tvo-hsted mining engineer whe brings into the story vholesomeness oi the great outdoors. Helen Ware, who wiD be remembered btst as Broadway star does some. character work as an under world type which makes deep impreS- sion on the audience. It Is through this character that Director Walsh carries his message of good. The sincere effort of this woman to prevent the dragging down of an innocent, winsome girl into the abyss of indency that is the lot of all women of the underworld wins great sympathy from the audience
 There are all the elements l nthis play which go to make up good entertainment Your money will be well spent if you | choose to sec it.
 The second feature Is Bryant Wash burn is "Mrs. Temples Telegram" ax part Aracraft special
 Mir. Washburn is SO spontaneous, ., exuberant and full of high spirits in th' characters which he plays in the pictures and withal so wholesome and thoroughil normal that one can easily see the req son for his popularity.

SPLENDID PRO GRAM
At TODAY N EET

Lured by the prospect of a good
chicken dinner such as the ladies Of
the Presbyterian church are famous
for serving, a fair summer attendance
Of Rotarians met today for the regular
weekly luncheon. The dinner was all
that had been anticipated and was
thoroughly enjoyed by the members,
and the enjoyment was augmented by
a musical number rendered by Mes
danes n. C.. Wood and Cecil Williams
with Mrs Don Lacy at the piano.
Following the introduction of the
guests, Rotarian Barron explained
briefly the need for financial assist
ance for the National Guard com
panies which are TO leave tomorrow
for n two weeks encampment at Ft.
Sill. According to the present laws
the men are paid two dollars per day
with an allowance in addition of 81
cents per day for meals. Since it
is apparent that this is not enough
for the men to i've on while away it
is necessary that aid be given them
solicit subscriptions to raise an amount
necessary to provide for the mei
while in training.
President Fell called on Rotarian
Champion for an explanation Of the
ways and wherefors of the results
of yesterdays primary election, but
the member called on merely gave a
cold statement Of facts based on the
returns and left the club to decide
upon the reasons individually.
Rotarian Gray reported the latest
developments regarding the proposed
amendments to the city charter &c
provide for the managerial form OF
government. and President Fell supple
mented his report by telling of the
stand taken by the American Legion
to fight for the amendments till they
We're adopted if it took till every
member was dead.
