LEGION MEMBERS AID POLICE

In conformity with the stand FOR

menaced life and property in larger
cities all over the country, according
to reports received at Legion national

New York department headquarters

the orgy Of murder and robbery was

WHEN TO WEAR THE UNIFORM
Too Modest in Appearing ia
Army Toys.

FORMER service men are too modest
to appear In Uniform on special ecca-
sions. according to a letter from Z
member Of the American Legion.
Tie letter follows:
"Armistice day brought with 1t some
new revelations Of viewpoint on the
wearing Of the uniform at ceremonies
and celebrations, and, inasmuch as In

way or the other. / am neutral on the
subject md am willing to do as the
bunch does.
Since their discharge the majority
Of both officers and enlisted men have
shown more than a little hesitancy In
putting the uniform back on for special
occasions. The true spirit Of the Le-
gion Is NOT manifest in any parade
when the majority of the men appear
In civilian clothes and a handful march
In uniform. On such occasions the uni
formed man Is in an embarrassing pO-
sition, and he vows: Never again.! l
think modesty IS responsible for most
mems preference for 'civvies' on formal
occasions. but I know that some argue
that they do not want to be in uniform
with a bunch Of men wearing officers
uniforms and insignia.
II am sure there is not an ex-oficer
in the Legion who would not willingly
discard his insignia if 1t operated as a
barrier to harmony. But let's have q
standard rule-either civvieS or uni
FORMS"

VERY FEW WILL BE DROPPED
Leqionnalres Are Rushing to Pay 1927
Post Dues; Many New Members
BEING Added.

The 10000 post adjutants Of the
American Legion. according to reports
reaching national headquarters from
all over the country, are finding them
selves now In the busiest weeks OF the
years as regards work.
The rush Of Legionnaires to get In
their 1921 post dues within the time
limit set, with the penalty Of being
dropped from membership, II delin-
quent after that date, piled necessary
clerical and other detail work onto
the shoulders Of post adjutants In an
unprecedented manner.
To Judge by the returns thus far
available, the list of rnen to be dropped
from membership for non-peyment OF
their 1921 post dues within the speci-
fed time will be only q small fraction
Of the Legion and will be more than
offset by the thousands Of new mc1n-

Alice Lake, beloved little star of
the screen world, will be seen by local
motion picture goers in The Greater
Claim" the Metro special which will
have run of Tuesday and Wednesday
at the Eagle theatre and Thursday
at the Central theatre as the feature
attraction.
The appearance of Miss Lake is al
ways an event of Importance, for she
lends to whatever role she essays,
buoyancy of youth, wonderful charm,
and a great gift of acting.
In 1.-The Greater Claim" adapted
from the Izola Forrester-Mann Page
story, she has the part Of Mary Smith
the Follies beauty, who marries a
wealthy youth, only to find that his
father soon kidnaps him so as to sep
arate them. She furiously annuls the
marriage and proceeds to disgrace the
family lame. Shady schemers use
her and her child to get hush money.
The climax comes with big vital sit
uation, where mother love surges and
where a man is called upon to make a
clever move to discover who is really
the mother and who the adventures.

Film Hound-but motion picture fans
prefer to call him the Dog Star--es-

Teddy plays the part of Teddy, the
little lame dog who brings happiness
into the life of the little lame brother
of Joe Sands, the hero, played by Jo-

forms with an art so finished as to
bring envy to the heart of more than

Winston Churchill
Novel, Filmed. Will
Be at Central Soon

Every reader of current literature
will recall the sensation caused by
the publication several years ago of
Winston Churchills powerful novel,
''The Inside of the Cup" The story
attacked the alleged hypocrisy of GER
tain clerrgymen and men of wealth
identified with churches as vestry-
men. The philosophy of the book was
criticized by churchmen in this cOun-
try and in England as an unwarranted
attack upon religion and the cloth.
The picture rights having been OBJ
tanned by Cosmopolitan at great ex-
pense, the story was picturized by AL
bert Capellani, a famous director and
the film version will be shown at the
Central theatre Friday and Saturday
and Eagle theatre next Sunday.
The essential features of the story,
which is one of great dramatic force
have been retained while the anti
hypocrisy philosophy of the author
necessarily has been subordinated to
the general theme.
The story deals with the Rector of
a fashionable church who turns upon
his wealthy practitioners when he dis
covers them parading under a mask
of hypocrisy and invites the common
people. to attend his church. Eldon
Parr, a vestryman. INSCRIPTIONS and
tyrannical. alienates his son and
daughter and is finally killed by al
man whom he has ruined. There is
a pretty love romance between the
Rector and PARIS daughter which
ends happily. The leading roles are
played by William p. Carleton and
Edith Hallor.
