Strand


 Opening in a blaze of glory, playing to absolute capacity throughout the day and evening, '-The Furnace" Will liam D. Taylor's special production for Realart, began it's Phoenix engage ment at the Strand yesterday.
 ."The Furnace" is one of the most unusual motion pictures Phoenix has enjoyed for a long time. Combining a smashing story with a magnificent and lavish display of beauty in settings, gowns. costumes and appointment. it is flaming appeal for sincerity in the marriage relation.
 The subject is intimately and broadly discussed. Every detail is perfect, every climax is carefully moulded, the story and lesson being sent home with the sledge hammer blows of accuracy and directness. Dramatically 1t IS a jewel, it's influence spreading itself over an audience before the first reel is half finished, holding attention with the characters as they review on the silent screen the story of hundreds and thousands of married couples.
 Agnes Ayres, Milton Sills. Theodore Roberts, Betty Francisco, Helen Dun bar, Mayme Kelso, Lucian Iitchfield, Robert Bolder and Edward Martindel, are among the featured players, several sets introducing hundreds of people in the brilliant assemblages.
 The Hip
 William Russell continues as the star in the Hips offering of William Fox s feature photcdrama, "The Challenge of the Law It is a story of the Royal Northwest Mounted that will prove an excellent entertainment for all who relish stories of the big outdoors. The story has it that Bruce Cava- naugh (William Russeil), a captain in the Royal Northwest Mounted, accom- panied by Tom Wallace, son of the commander are sent to break up the traffic in smuggling furs across the border. Bruce falls in love with the daughter of the chief offender without knowing her identity. The arrest of the smuggler brings down the con- demnation of his sweetheart, and the rescue of the imprisoned man causes the death of Tom Wallace and starts Bruce on the trail of the guilty-a trail | that carries him to the southern bor- der of the United States. where the action on the desert is of the most in tense nature. The meeting of Bruce and the people he seeks is one of the most dramatically perfect climaxe: Russell has yet woven into a picture plot. The story builds rapidly from this point 60 the denouement, bringing to close a rattling good adventure story.

What Senate Bill 133
 Would Accomplish

ing to the construction of roads, as IS done under the present law.
 Section of the bill deprives the board of supervisors of the right to call an election for the construction of county roads The present law the bill ali election can only be called upon petition Such a procedure is a step backward, further complicates the method, and opens the door for further legal attacks on any attempt to issue bonds- Complicated legal machinery has a tendency to scare bond buyers limit the market for bonds. increase, their cost and decrease their sale value. The uncertainty ol section l will do all these things. If the object of this bill is to make it inn possible for the counties to issue road bonds, the author of section 1 has gone far toward accomplishing this object
 A comparison of section 1 of the bill with section 1 of chapter 121, Laws oi 1919. will reveal the makeshift char acter of the former As a. further H. lustration of this point, the phrase
 such bonds" occurs near the end oi the section in the bill when, as a mat ter of fact, bonds have not been men toned before
 In this bill no authority is conferred upon the board of supervisors con. ttIitlH+ llc QtAdiLS Ot tne clecIiDA u be held hereunder, as is provided fol in the present law. (See Laws of 1917 ch 31. sec. 5) Of course, it may b, that the board has this power, bu this once again illustrates the make shift character of the bill, shows it shortcomings. and sfves the bono buyer another excuse not to purchase Section of the bill is a modification of section of Chapter 31. Laws 1917 Section is well drawn, covers the sub ject and the writer can see no reasol why it Should have >been changed a i it is in section 2 of the bill, unless was to still further increase the uncer tainty already existing in the bill. Tn ! present law limits the consolidation o districts to six. Under senate bill 13 there is no limit. This probably is no an, improvement. As the writer under stands this consolidation: -Ordinar | precincts are established for genera and special elections when all tn voters participate. There being onl

HAYS HIGH SPOTS

AGE-41
 BIRTHPLACE-Sul Sullivan, Ind
 EDUCATION-Waba college.
 FESSION-Lawyer-

 CHILDREN-One, Will H. Hays, Jr, ,.
 RELIGION-Presbyt
 ORDERS-Member and national president of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity; Mason: member of nu- merous clubs in Indianapolis and elsewhere
 INDIANAPOLIS There seems to have been only one vent in the life of Will Hays, national Republican chair man, who is slated for postmaster gen. eral in President Harding's cabinet, that has not in some way been con- nected with politics.
 That was his birth
 He was born on the day after cleo tion, Nov. 5, 1879, making him 41. But he cast his first vote on his birthday.
 Hays spent much of his boyhood in his fathers law office. where he ab- sorbed law and great deal of politics. Before he was 21, he was a precinct committeeman. and at 23 had made a losing race for prosecuting attorney.
 Honors Come Fast
 After that political honors came thick and fast. He was first county chair man, next Indiana state chairman, and finally national Republican chairman the youngest man ever to hold that of flee.
 Hays has two chief aides in poll ticking the telephone and the taxicab. When Bell invented the telephone he must have had Hays in mind.
 Hays drops into the office of a gov ernor or political leader in the middle or far west. Some argument comes up during the conversation about what say Elihu Root had said on some. sub ject relating to the party. Does Hays argue? Not he. He puts in a long distance call for Root at Washington or elsewhere and settles the matter.
 When Hays spent considerable time in Indianapolis, his table in the Severin hotel dining room was furnished with long distance phone and he talked with Chicago and New York between bites.
 Taxis Everywhere
 No matter how short the distance to go Hays rides in a taxicab- He always taxis from the state house in Indiana polls to the Severin, five blocks away And nine chances out of ten he writes part of a speech or letter on the way. When the recent investigation of na- tional campaign expenses was on some Indiana wag said he was not surprised mo doubt Hays taxicab bills during the campaign amounted to hundreds of thousands

The following analysis of the Ia" creating county highway commlsslon CTS and senate bill 133, proposing liis repeal of that law. have been prepared for. careful study by members or the legislature:
 Present State of the Law
 The present law relating to the lssu auce of bonds for the constructor anu improvement of county highways IS to ho found in Chapter 31, Laws or lsll and the amendments thereof contalheu in Chapters 2, 63 and 121 of the Laws of 1919.
 These laws set forth complese plan that enables counties to proVide for and issue bonds for the construc- tian and improvement ftheir high fion and improvement of their hlgn- propertv taxpayers determine whether or not the county shall issue it's bonds. These elections may be called by the board of supervisors or upon petluon of the electors. All other necessary details are provided for in these acts Several counties have availed them selves of the provisions of these acts and have issued bonds thereunder. So far as can be learned. the law IS satis- factory and no difficulties have oc- cured. either in it's operation or with the machinery provided by it for the issuance of the bonds.
 The Proposed SIIl
 Senate bill 133 contains nine sec lions. Seven sections contain what purports to be provisios for the issu- ance of bonds by the counties for the improvement of their highways One eection repeals the existing law on this subject. and the last section consists of tho emergency clause.
 This bill is very loosely drawn whether through design or negligencf tho writer is unable to say. By re- pealing all existing law on the subject of the construction of county roads and being substituted therefor, there are omitted in this bill many of tho necessary features of the present law
 The bill provides no means and confers no authority on the board O. supervisors to investigate the condi- tions of the county roads and deter mine the improvements to be mad, and the cost of the same. This is fully provided for in the present law. (Set Laws 1919, .ch. 121, sec. 3.)
 This bill abolishes the county high way commission and provides that 'al proceedings and work pend ing at the time this act becomes oper ativc shall be taken over managed and completed by the boar, of supervisors" In other words. tn board of supervisors may complet work begun by the highway commis sion, but no power is conferred upol them to initiate any new work relat

 Ramona
 Two excellent phases of entertain ment combine the double program of fered at the Ramona, and it has proved one of the most enjoyable bills the popular house has presented for a long time. Miller and Wakefield's big girl revue. offering a highly pleasing pro- gram of musical comedy, carries away high houors with the bill presented. The newest song numbers are ex- cellently interpreted not only by the principles of the company but in the numbers of the chorus. The comedy is all new, the costumes all new-it is new show in it's entirety and one that is making big hit with the Ramona's patronage.
 The picture program leads off with The Law of the Yukon" ReaIart's feature based on Robert W. Services poem of the Klondike, of the same name. Strong and virile in nature, the picture presents scenic marvels in the snow scenes and the "shots' of the big outdoors in the northlands.
