impressive photoplay and one that
Will not be easily forgotten. She
makes her first appearance in a
modest little street costume saun-
tering into the midst of the laugh
ing, whMling couples in the barn
dance. No matter in what gown
or what particular type of indiVid-
ual Miss Frederick may be portray
ing, she always adapts herself to
the characters circumstances,
making her role as realistic as pos
sible. In the barn dance she en-
tors the throng and laughs. jollies
end enjoys herself with the crowd
of extras as though she were ac-
tually living in the oden days
when the barn dance with the old
fashioned music and surroundings
was the regular nightly amuse-
ment. The young folks arrive in
a big hay rack and the lighting for
the hall is furnished by oil lamps
with typical glass pendants tink-
ling from the chains and one can
imagine the sweet musical sound
as the wind catches them each
time the door opens. The atmo-
snhcre in this new picture Is per-

The costumes are of the kind
that your grandmothers wore years
ago. Every setting in the picture
is faithful to the last detail of the
country interiors and eXteriors
Many Of the members of the older
generation who see this picture will
recognize familiar scenes attended
in younger days.

CANDY STORES REDUCE
PRICES ON SWEET GOODS

People are greeting with delight
the announcement by the leading
candy stores of the city the reduc-
ton IN the prices of the finest candy.
Although the price of candy came
down from its high wartime perch
several weeks ago. it was not until
this week that the price of the
sweets dropped to pre-war level.
However, this is just what happened
and in most cases the drop came so
that the Thanksgiving buyers were
able to take advantage of the reduc-
ton.
The reduction has been SO great
in many of the lines that at first 1t
was almost unbelievable. In some
instances the cut in price was more
than fifty per cent. of former prices
Only the best OF material is used IN
the candy offered by these stores
and the reduction is one that candy
eaters, and almost everyone IS eat
ing candy these days, may be thank
full for. The reduction not only af-
fects stock on hand. but also the

SWEEPS CLEAN

Few people know that the mere
act of sweeping is dangerous to
good health if not done right.
A dry broom is the best instru-

cupants.
This may seem an absurd1y trivial
thing to warn women of, yet a par
ticle of dust often contains many
disease germs. The dust particle
is often a tiny dirigible that carries
disease germs from n place to an
other.
Then, too, the dust itself is a men,

lungs in any quantity. In addition
to the disease germs that it may

conference according to plans,
though it may likewise implicate a
number of Chinese in league with
the military party of Japan.
Through this agreement, the
terms of which have never fully
been made public. China. according
to president" Sun Yat-sen, has
been corrupted, disrupted and bur-
dened with continuous civil war.
Hundreds of japanese officers
have been loaned" TO the armies of
Northern China, and there they ex-
ercise a subtle but practical con-
troll of Picking itself.
These secret loans and military
pacts, the Chinese point out, are in
direct violation of the Anglo-Japan-
csc alliance guarantying the status
quo in the Far East. They demand
the deSunciation of this alliance.
Japan's secret pacts slam shut
the open door to the Orient. the
Chinese contend: and this doctrine
is American; so they expect the
support of the United States.
England. France. Italy and Amer
lea will stand by China. Only
Japan appears reticent. She may
yet wriggle out while appearing to
yield.
Japan's instructions, ostensibly.
come from the japanese prime min
lister. In reality they come from
the hidden hand of Prince Yama-
ga ia. head of the military party
and the power behind the throne.
