MALE AND FEMALE"
 BIC HIT AT STRAND

Male and Female" the photoplay that discovered man, continuing on it's unprecedented run at the Strand. where it is daily delighting capacity audiences, has proven in truth a starring vehicle for every member Of the cast. To be sure Thomas Meighan. and Gloria Swanson have the handling of the lead ing characteriZations, but there is so much meat" in every part assigned ia the production, that to every artist to whom has been entrusted even the smallest bit" the opportunity has been given to score. Theodore Roberts for years recognized one of the best character men on the screen, scores perhaps the greatest hit of his entire career in, Male and Female" and this in comedy, a quality that before his appearance in this latest DeMille mas ter piece the public never knew he pos sessed.
 There is Raymond Hatton, always a factor in any supporting cast, but he shines with the brilliancy of a star m difficult portrayal-and one that could have been ruined by little over doIng.
 Lila Lee-a star in her own right it is true-but it took Male and Fe male to firmly establish her. and she divides honors with Gloria Swanson in popularity and finished portrayal.
 Robert Cain. in the role of the aristo cratic suitor for Lady Mary's hand. is credited with the best work he has ever done.
 And so on down the Hne-"Male and Female" is considerably more than motion picture-it is a starring vehicle for an entire cast of exceptional talent.
Arizona republican., 1920-02-05

the result is and always will be that in a Griffith production, the public finds something way out of the usual.
 Romance of Happy Valley" is dis tinctly Griffith production. It's charm lies in the very nature of it's simple theme. Griffith has taken the peace ful life of the country folk. and around their uninterrupted communion with natures glorious abundance he has woven a heart interest story that will grip and hold the attention of all who see it.
 The same Griffith cast of excellent artists which has been associated with the master producer in all of his sue cesses are on hand in this, production. among which are numbered Lillian Gish. Robert Harron, playing the leads. and the usual supporting talent which Griffith has culled from his wide ex- perience in handling actors and actresses.
 The Romance of Happy Valley" is a folk play. It makes it's appeal to none in particular but to everyone in general for there is no one who can see it and escape it's tug at the heart strings, the story records the events is compelling continuity.

NO DECISION YET
ON WATER CHARGES

Bismarck, N. D., May mo de-
cistonsshasf BEN forthcoming yet.1rom
the state railroad commission in the
case Of the demand. of Bismarck
water consumers for q reduction in
the rate charged by the Bismarck
Water company, q concern owned by
Alex Mckenzie.
Evidence in the cas- was taken
several months ago, but it is UNDER
stood that the railroad commission
has not yet required Of the company
completion Of briefs that were as
sured as q means Of rounding up the
aae
The. Mckenzie witnesses told the
railroad commission that the water
it .a should be privileged to earn a
t~esttfying In behalf OF the citizens
fixed the plant value at $751; 600. -.
The Bismarck Water company
maintains reservoirs on a hill north
west Of the city, and the water is de-
livered to the city by force of grav-
ity. Water is pumped from the Mis-
SQUIRT into the reservoir of the
tract rate for this service being 2 1-2
cents per 1000 gallons, according to
contracts filed with the railroad COM
mission.
The 'company's present charge for
water is SO cents per 1000 gallons.
AS a result Of the water fight, the
city commission has taken steps to
establish a municipal water plant,
and it proposes duplicating the dis
tribution system of the Bismarck
Water company. The municipal
plant would be constructed by as
sessing abutting property for the
mains. and by mortgaging the pump
ing station
