ANNOUNCEMENTS
THE STRAND

The Strand has arranged for a spe- cial holiday program of the bigger and better sort This program appeals to all Armstrong and Downey have very clever comeoy bicycle variety ack that has gone over big. There is some very clever bicycle -iding and comic tricks in this act. Fields and Max well appeared in their own original sketch entitled The Battle of Bay Rum. This act is of different com edy novelty. Special scenery is used. The Four Arrenssis is a whole family full aofz entertainment. Father, mother and children are in this act. The young sters in this act have the makinss of artists at their profession. This act received great deal of applause which they were surely entitled to.
 Earle Williams, the screens favorite, was shown in Winchen Smiths cele- brated stage play entitled The Fortune Hunter. This is a seven part special production.
 The swirling city is too busy to give many people time to think. So it's not uncommon that when a city man goes to a small town he begins to think and becomes somewhat of a philosopher.
 Nathaniel Durham, played by Earle Williams, was no exception to the rule. It was true that Josie Lockwood was very pretty, and no one questioned her being the richest girl in town. And from all indications she was very much in love with Durham.
 Then there was Betty Graham, play ed by Jean Paige. Durham could read l volumes and volumes of unspoken words i'll the depth of her sparkling. worshipful eyes. Brown eyes, they were. Rich and deep and calm and secretive. Durham watched those eyes and unused on them much like one looks on the inscrutable Sphinx, won dering what lies behind the calm, i'm movable, mask-like face that hides the secrets of the ages.
 But the test decided the matter. When he was arrested on a charge of grand larceny Josie Lockwood showed her colors in ways unmistakab1e. She didn't wait to investigate if the 1 charges were true. but forthwith launched train of invectives that an old sea-dog might have envied.
 But Betty Graham was different and stle-do see The Fortune Hunter. It's wonderful!

SHORTAGE OF SILVER TO
 MEET DEMANDS OF TRADE

London, Feb. 7.-Use of the silver standard in oriental countries, coupled with the enormous commercial expan- sion now in progress between the west and the east, indicates that there is an immense shortage of silver to meet the demands of trade, says the Ameri- can Chamber of Commerce in London.
 One result of this shortage, says the American chamber, is that American and Mexican silver mines may look forward confidently to an era of un- preced tented prosperity for many years to come Silver, it is understood, must also be found to back over $30,o00,0 ,0o0,- 900 worth of paper money issues float ing in Europe today, in addition to which Americas increasing volume of trade with India and China calls for almost unlimited supplies of the metal
 The United States and Mexico fur nish nearly three-fourths of the worlds yearly output of silver, the larger portion coming from the United States. As the price of the white metal advances it has become profit able to most countries to convert minted silver into bullion. Small change continues to disappear on the European continent with remark able rapidity, postage stamps largely replacing the former silver coin. Of small value.
 The United States is said to be the one country in position today to buy silver for coinage without debasing it's standard coins

TO ORGANIZE A LEVANT
 HOUSE IN NEW YORK CITY

Constantinople, Feb. 2.-The Amer ican Chamber of Commerce for the Levant has undertaken to organize a Levant house in New York city for the mutual benefit of business men and others, either here or in America, who are interested in the near east. The suggestion originated with G. B. Ravndal, American commissioner and consul general here and honorary president of the local chamber of com merce. @
 It is proposed to establish the Le- want house along the lines of the India house, one of the historic clubs of New York, but with the modern equipment Of other well known business, engi- neering or foreign trade organizations already centered in New York. One of it's purposes would be to record and commemorate Americas contribution to the advancement of civilization among Egyptians, Arabs. Armenians, Turks, Greeks and Bu1garians. Lit erary research and lectures upon this topic would be actively encouraged.
 The American Chamber of Com. merce for the Levant has named. part ly among it's officers and directors at large, a group of active business men in the United States to whom it has entrusted the work of carrying the LeVant- house scheme into execution. These are C. F. Tydecler. Ralph Mill ton Ode11 Edward Neville, Vose, Lu- cien Irving Thomas, Edward Ewing Pratt, SEE. c. Porter, H. M Hitchcock H. M.
