A TRULY GREAT
PICTURE AT THE
PALACE THEATER

A. the Palace theatre today and to-
morrow ''Humoresque." a truly great
picture is being shown, and one that
every lover Of the screen should see
1t is a picture full of human interest
and runs the gamUt of emotion from
laughter TO tears, with an artistry
that is seldom witnessed. The picture
is from the story by Fannie Hurst.
More pictures of this character and
less of the "Vamps," "Wild and VOL
lies" and Domestic Entanglements"
would settle the question of censor
ship and Sunday exhibitions that is
being carpcd at present by profess
sional reformers for all time, and
would not only have a wholesome
moral effect but would be reflected
at the box office as well.
While the well known actress, Alma
Rubens was announced as the star,
and she does play her part well, yet
the stellar role was taken by Vera
Gordon, who played the part of a
mother. 1t is said that this is her
first picture and for that reason her
name was not featured. Vera Gordon
is truly a great artist and great ac-
tress and If these qualities are to be
considered she has undoubtedly made
name for herself in screenlnnd. The
cast in its entirety is exceptionally
good amd there is nothing to mar the
beautiful theme OF mother love which
runs throughout the story.
Not the least of the performance
is the splendid musical score by Low
ensteins orchestra, which lends addi-
tional power to the picture.
Preceding the performance last eve
ming 16 violin pupils of Sol NJ. Lowen-
stein played Dvorak's 'Humoresque.
Ground which the story also weaves
in unison The young pupils played
with much feeling and their part OF
the prognm was greatly enjoyed. They
will play each evening just before the
| 8 o'clock show. Those taking part are
Lynn Kincaid, William Colvert, Stuart
Whitsett, Louise Brown, Austin
George. Florence sStonum, Clell But

WEo delivers address at First Chris
!ian church, Sunday, in the interest
OF the "Anti Saloon League
DR.. !. d. Hitchcock, field secretary
of the Anti-Saloon League Of America,
spent today here completing final ar
rangements for Annual Field Day, to
be observed in this city Sunday.
On Sunday four prominent speakers
Of the league will occupy the pulpits
OF local churches at the morning
services. DR.. Ira Landrith Of Chicago.
will speak at First Presbyterian
church; Hon. Lewis r. Horton of
Spokane, will be at First Christian
church; DR.. G. +. Swift of Philadel-
phia, will be at Carter Avenue Meth
odist church, and DR.. G. NJ. Hammond
of Kentucky, will occupy the pulpit
at Broadway Baptist church. This
is the fifth week Of a nine week S
campaign Of the state, during this
period the speakers are scheduled to
deliver as many as 800 addresses.
The Anti-Saloon League was or
ganized q years ago, Dr. Hitchcock
stated, and was the outgrowth Of
sentiment against the vice Of liquor.
DR.. j. Howard Russell and Dr. y. A.
Baker, both of Westerville. Ohio, who
were among the founders are still en-
gagged in their fight. The League is
entirely supported by voluntary sub
scription.
"The principal thing we are doing,
DR.. Hitchcock continued. "is to get
before the public the purpose Of the
organization. Some Of our own friends
and our best supporters have appar-
emily gone TO sleep since the Eight
eenth Amendment is in effect, but
there was never a time when our
fight should be stronger than at this
time. When such an authority as

trict Judge OF Kansas. states that re-
peal of the eighteenth amendment and
other prohibition measures Is abso
| lutely necessary, or We will face q
revolution that will destroy all the
cherished institutions OF the country
It Is time indeed that every friend OF
prohibition be alert To the grave re-
sponsibility and the necessity for act
i've work.
"The Anti-Saloon League has one
and only one purpose and that is tt
keep America dry-we are combat
ting the liquor traffic. We are no
talking Blue Laws-that Is not oul
mission. but we are fighting for pro
hibition and until the issue is def
nitely settled, We viii continue ouI

as large as was expected, but Secre-
tary Wills says it is satisfactory and
nobody else need worry. Smooth run

harkers and a delightful fall day made
a combination that would be hard to
beat at a country fair.

for today and tomorrow the rate was
fixed at 75 cents and war tax Friday
