CHARMING PICTURE
AT LIBERTY

Shirley Mason the vivacious com.
sedienne has scored a distinct hit by
her clever work in her new Para
mount picture THE Rescuing Angel,
which will be shown at the Liberty
theatre tonight and Wednesday
This picture heads long list OF
successes in which Miss Mason has
starred. Her work in Goodbye
Bill" in. which she co-starred with
Ernest Truax will be recalled by
film patrons.
In her latest production Miss
Mason has an excellent part in an
excellent adaptation of the play OF
the same name which was written
by Glare Hummer. In the role OF
Angela, the charming and winsome
daughter of bankrupt, Miss Mason
has an excellent opportunity to dis
play her talents as a screen com
edienne. Nor is she lacking in the
power successfully and forcefully to
portray the character from an emo.
tional standpoint.
Miss Mason's sparkling personality
makes the picture TEEN with inter
est throughout She is excellentiy
supported, Forrest Stanley being the
loading man.

Boys from So nations will be
represented at the international
Scout meet in London this coming
summer according to an announce
ment made public on March IL at
Scout headquarters in New York.
The Boy Scouts of America expect
to be represented by 200 scouts in
charge of an adequate number of
leaders.
The selection of 200 boys to make
up the, delegation, representing the
Poy Scouts of America will be left
to the scout field--150 boys to rep

Council organizations and SO. boys
from the unorganized field, accord

displays and contests have been
arranged. The National Council
will determine what contests the
American boys will compete in. At
ter the participants have been select
ed they will be placed in a prepare
tory camp and given the necessary
training and instructions. This
camp will probably be at Interstate
Palisades Park and will be con-
Quoted just before the sailing date
with experienced and able leaders in
charge.
THE displays are to be represent
ed by teams of Scouts, the teams
consisting of not less than "a or
more than $50 boys each. Each
display must fill the arena and
none must take more than Is min
utes to show. Marks will be given
for the most original treatment OF
any of the following subjects: Fire

sorts, such as train collisions aero
plane accidents shipwrecks, floods
earthquakes, runaway horses, cook
ing and other original troop dis

most prominent in the movement on
this side of the water. including
Colin H. Livingston, Mortimer Schiff
who has 900-acre park in Kent,

That an international organiza-
