THE BLACK SHEEP

Of course, Helen always had been the black sheep At school she was constantly in some kind of a scrape and it wasn't all harmless mischief either. I remember one very nasty business about taking d pony into the examination hall. and a few other things that probably helped ito pre- maturely gray lovely little Mrs Ath- ertoh's hair
 And then when she got to the court ing age, Several times, they say, she veered pretty close to the edge of the precipice, and it was a heaven sent relief to the family when she aston ished them all by marrying good old Tom Roles
 And now, as a married woman with children. her tantrums get more seri- ous and more dangerous Everybody knew she flirted outrageously with poor Mrs. Smither's husband, and she was certainly intoxicated at the club dance. Poor Tom-for a while things will go all right and then all of a sudden up goes Helen at a tangent and runs away for a few days, No, she isn't crazy, just erratic-and some people ay-well-worse
 What nobody can understand is how her family stand by her, help ing her out of things. almost one would think condoning her escapades.
 Everybody knows friend of the family said to me, about a mothers passion for her black sheep. But when 1t comes to a woman with a good husband, it would seem they should help him to discipline her in stead of making her feel safe in their protection"
 The reason is safe in the family

THROUGH A WOMAN'S EYES
BY JEAN NEWTON

closet, expressed only at rare times like when Helen was caught cheating at school and her mother said to the older twins: We must not blame Helen too much-she came by it hon estly. I don't like to talk about it." wiping away d tear, but you know what happened before I saw your father for the last time You know. too. about his sister, Agnes and the weakness that sent her where she is. Well, none of that touched either Of you--thank God. For that. you and I should never cease to be thankful and be all the more kind and charit- able with poor Helen, who seems to have borne the brunt of it all.
 There is nothing in particular wrong with Helen-she just seems to have her fathers tende1cy toward weakness. I don't say she couldn [ be otherwise. You know, I have al ways taught you that the right and wrong are before us to choose as we please. And 1 do believe that we can shape ourselves to our own choice. But if Helen is having harder time of it than either of you, you know something about that which should make you stand by her always and help her to overcome it"
 , So that was why the family was so patient with Helen!
 The merits of her mothers reason ing we must leave to those who speak with authority in such things-the question is a big one all round. But this does throw some light on the passion of mothers for the black sheep and family tolerance of other Helens.
 They know something about it. and to understand is to forgive.

6he[1lQatoI WEDDING BELLS
 RING OUT AT ELKS

Once in while a, theatrical produc- tion has charm enough or novelty enough, or humor enough to run full season in New York without ad verse criticism. This is the record of Wedding Bells" one of the great est hits that Roadway has ever en- joyed. which will be seen at the Elks theater matinee and night Sunday, April 8. To miss it will be to lose one of the funniest plays that has ever caused thousands to rock in their seats until they literally wept with merriment Wedding Bells" has chased off more glooms than any other comedy on record.
 When Wedding Bells first opened at the Harris theater in New York, it was prophesied that the piece had all the ear marks of success. Even the most optimistic, knowing the fly . by-night character of Broadway's ap- proval, did not expect the comedy to score as it did. The fact remains that it played to packed houses for a solid year, a record that very few comedies are able to boast of in these days when the temper of the public is for
 something new all the time
 Wallace Eddinger, Margaret Law renee, Jessie Glendening, Percy Ames and George Burton were among the famous players who ppeared with the New York production of Wedding Bells" and were with the road com pany that toured the larger cities of the country with such marked success immediatel following the New York run. Locally playgoers are to be con graduated on the opportunity to see this great production of the SelWyns at the Elks theater next Sunday. The seat sale opens at the box office this morning at o'clock

Peggy Behave" Is Full of Laughs

A laugh per minute and few thrown in for good measure is what Del S Lawrence, Wilma Steck and the balance of the clever company are giving their patrons at the Elks theater this week in the fascinating and exciting farce comedy. Peggy Behave"
 Owen Davis, the author. has con tributed a gem to the stage and the play in the hands of the Lawrence company is going over with such snap, pep and ginger that the audi ence goes away chuckling with glee after each performance. If there are any better comedies written they have not yet been brought to Phoe- nix, and Wilma Steck has never been seen in a more delightful role
 Today is the regular mid-week matinee day, which has become al most a distinctive ladies' matinee. The performance starts at 2:30 this afternoon and S:15 tonight, and each night throughout the week, with an other popular children's matinee on Saturday.

Peter Rabbit made a face at Jimmy Skunk "I don't like being preached to-" said he.
 I'm not preaching; I'm just telling you what you ought to know without being told replied Jimmy Skunk. If you don't like your name, why don't you change it?''
 What's that?" cried Peter sharply.
 T said, if you don't like your name, why don't you change it?" replied Jimmy.
 Peter sat up. and the disagreeable frown had left his face "I-l-never thought of that he said slowly. Do you suppose I could, Jimmy Skunk ?'
 Easiest thing in the world. replied Jimmy Skunk Just decide what name you like, and then go tell all your friends that that is your new name and ask them to call you by it.

 Well, let me know what it is when you have decided said Jimmy as he started for home. And all the way up the Crooked Little Path Jimmy skunk chucllled to himself as he thought of foolish Peter Rabbit trying to change his name.

It is still running on it's initial run in Los An geleS at the kinema theater after a week at the S6.O00,0 900 Ambassador.

"Outside the Law"

There is only one Priscilla Dean when it comes to playing lady crooks and her portrayal of the role of Silky Moll Madden, daughter of the reformed Madden. in Outside the Law" at the Mauk's Columbia thea ter for the last time today is as clean cut as cameo. As the cold, caIcu- lating girl of the underworld whose heart is finally touched when the ma ternal instinct is awakened. she runs the gamut of human emotions
 Lon Chaney again established him self as the peer of character actors by his performance of the role of Black Jack" Mike Silva, the San Francisco gangster. His portrayal of the wolf of the underworld, fearless and unprincipled, is masterpiece that ranks with his work in The Miracle Man and The Penalty
 The picture is not without it's hu- morous and human touches. Princi- pal among the heart gripping incl dents are those dealing with little Stanley Goethals. a newcomer to the screen. whose chubby arms and win ming smile do much to turn Silky Moll from her life of underworld vengeance. Stanley is the most natu- ral youngster on the screen.

 Douglas Fairbanks, when he was on the Aircraft program, made the best pictures of his career to that time on the screen He Comes Up Smiling was one of the fastest that he created while with Paramount. and it opened yesterday to a splendid business at the Hip, where he is on again today and tomorrow. It is just the kind of picture in which the famous acrobatic comedian of the screen does his best. He comes up smiling' no matter what the blow. and if you are an admirer of this strenuous comic of filmdom, 'He Comes Up Smiling" will surely please you. With the feature is seen a se- lected Christie comedy and the two make strong bill for the little Washington street house. The added feature tonight will be the second showing of the motion pictures taken of the valley schools and the Indian school. This feature alone should pack the house.

BOBBY CUILFORD PLANS
TO APPEAR IN ENGLAND

The British golf world seems to be
pleased with the announcement that
Jesse Guilford, the national amateur
champion. is going to make another
pilgrimage to the British amateur
championship in the coming spring.
Guilford was a member Of the team
of amateurs that went across this
year, but like the rest Of the team he
did not fare well, being defeated in
one of the early rounds. With the
confidence given him by his victory
in the national event, the Bostonian
will be a greater factor in the event
this season. %
Along with the same announcement
comes word that Jock Hutchinson Is not
at all certain of defending his title
won at st. Andrews this year. The Chi
cagoan is now on a tour of the West
with Barnes and is credited with hav-
ing stated that, In all likelihood, he
would not cross the water this year.
In no case will there be any such pre-.
tentious invasions as there were in
