 Outlining the questions before the conference, Mir. Hoover declared mo problem can be adequately approach ed Tor solution without knowledge of the facts" There was needed, he sad, first "a determination of the volume and distribution of unemploy- ment,' then, "a determination of what emergency measures should be taken to provide employment" and a consideration and statement of what measures must be taken to re- store our commerce and employment to normal, or to put another way, what obstacles need to be removed to promote business recovery-the only real and lasting remedy for un- employment is employment"

1.-THE CHILD THOU GAVEST ME" PLEASING DRAMA AT TRIANON


 emotions is "The Child Thou Gavest Me" at the Trianon. Contrary to the fact that the title implies a mother love story, the photoplay Is really q very compelling story of early mar ried life. It is of very early married life, in fact, for dramatic events 1 egiu to happen at the very wedding, made mockery by the appearance of the unknown child of the bride, and they come in a compelling sus- cession. until the end of the play.
 The Child Thou Gavest Me" is T well written photodrama, being pre- sented to the spectator in a way that makes the ending a complete mys- tery. and all of the action full of d great suspense. When the climax does come 1t is very unexpected solu- tioa of the problems that have arisen in the story.
 The picture opens with a very real wedding of the two principal characters. During the wedding the child of the bride whom she has be- lieved dead comes 10 the house and finds it's way to her room and she finds it there. When the happy groom comes for his wife he finds her clasping the child. Then follows the unraveling of this tangle of a house deyided, and most interesting series of events transpires.
 Lewis Stone gives a very strong portrayal of the husband who finds himself in this tragic situation. He is naturally called on for great display of intense feelings, disap- DoInted. revenge and the final mom- ents when he finds that the revenge he sought is to be denied for suttt- cient reasons.

Thin Red Line, While UnCer- tain This Year, Should De- velop Into Powerful
 Combination
By JACK FREEMAN

University, September 26.-(Spe- ciaL)-After two weeks of practice the Crimson squad is now getting into real football shape. Many pes- smists have been foreseeing a bad year for Alabamas gridiron tssre- gation, but those who are following the team closely in its daily work outs are feeling more confident every day As everywhere else in the south, the extreme heat mas greatly hampered the progress of training, but the CrimsoRs have worked he roically in spite of it every day since practice began. There has been such q large number of candilutSs thIs year that no man has had his place cinched, consequently every man has been putting everything he had in the struggle for a berth on tie var sity.
 A few of the new men have al- ready forged to the front and proved themse ives football materlal 5f she very highest ealibre, while others wto have not made such sensational progress are gradually workins u9 to the top, and are sure to make 6 landing in the end.

sTHE AFFAIRS OF ANATOL" WITH TXYELXE STARS AT STRAND

Wallace Reid, at all times hand some and debonair, is altogether fla cinating in his role of Anatol in The Affairs of Anatol" at the Strand. Anatol Is a too chivairous young husband who idealizes every fair face as belonging to damsel in dis tress, and Reid with his idealistic appearance looks the part.
 Like the knights of old, Anatol, a modern Don Quixote. is quick to the rescue of these maids in distress but as the story progresses and we learn more of Anatol, we wonder If he would be so anxious to rescue the maids had they not pretty faces, or if they would be so willing to be saved" were he less handsome.
 Could any role suit Wallace Reid better than this one of the over gal lant Anatol2 Those who see the pie ture and have seen Reid in many pre- vous pictures are going to be em- phatic in declaring that this is the best thing he ever did. His perform ance here is so far and above any thing he has ever done that it will undoubtedly prove his most popular appearance.
 Aside from Reid in the title role there are a dozen or more other stars and one of the most pretenti- ous efforts in production from q standpoint of settings to ever reach the screen. The numerous interiors are rich to a point of being exotic.
 "Of the stars. there is Gloria Swanson, the wife. Miss Swanson is glorious Wanda Hawley has found her best role as frivolous girl of the gay white way. She gets every thing into the role that could possi- ply be expected. Agnes Ayres is also an interesting character as the "in- nocent" country girl who gives Ana tol one of the best lessons he gets in this amusing drama. Bebe Daniels

 Conroy and O'Donnell amused and entertained the audience with a non sensieal comedy act portraying two postmasters, with interlocutor and black face methods. A good solution as to figuring out your income tax is presented that is about as feasi- ble as a number of others heard of and tried out in the past with equal results.
 The Molera Revue offered a num- Der of classical and semi classical songs. They are a seXtet composed of three women and three men ac- ! ,fa ad i,xyt mi vf offer chorous and solo songs from operas and a piano solo well rend cred.

MAX BLOOM, FuNNiER

 The Joe Jenny Trio, in new and original song hits, was well re- ceived, and continued the good humor of the capacity house. Their singing was harmonious and the comedy clever.
 Max Bloom scarcely had gotten on the stage before the audience made up of his friends and admirers, ac- corded him quite an ovation. As he always has done heretofore, Bloom kept the audience in an uproar every moment that he was on the stage. and he never left 1t from the time he came on until they finally had 10 fairly beg the audience to let the last act give it's offering.
 Bloom opened his act with his part ner. Alice Sher, in a new skit. "A
 
 said of it Sunday this new sketch was funnier by far than the act That's My Horse" that Birmingham enthused about last year. New jokes and fun making kept every one alive and wanting more. Miss Sher has a gor- geous repertoire of gowns this year that added a great deal to the act. Just when everyone had settled down to thinking that nothing could be funnier than Bloom in this skit Max pulled his Making Love" stunt including cave man diversion that Is about the funiest piece of com edy ever seen on the local stage.
 The Edwards Duo presented some trick and novelty sharp shooting that rounded off the bill to a finish and left everyone well satisfied with the programme for the first half.

"TURN TO THE RIGHT" AT MAJESTIC-N FINE PLAY

most successful plays to be given by the Maddoeks-Park Players at the Majestic this season. It is a play that has been very fortunately select ed to please by it's breeziness good humor and real drama. The story of Turn to the Right" Is very interest ing and full of incidents that appeal straight to the heart as well as to the love of romance and fun.
 There is always something that ap- peals in the gradual regenerating and winning over to a better life of confirmed crooks. It Is especially at tractive when it Is done in the anus ing way that it is done in this play. Though the story is at bottom a real drama about young man who left home and returned jailblrd posing as successful man, there are two others. his pals" who are very in- teresting figures in the action and create great deal of amusement. These two crooks are enacted with a fine sense of humor by Sam Park and Tex Perry. They occupy the center of the stage much of the time and never do these two fine comedians let them get tiresome, and they are more than fnny. they are a bit pathetic.
 Mae Park is particularly sweet and natural in this, as the rural heroine, | daughter of a man of means. Myrtle Bigden has different role as in- genue. and does 1t well. Jimmie Stone makes an ambitious country chap one of the breeziest characters In the. play Marie Davidson makes an engaging mother and, in fact. the whole company should be congratu- lated for fine performances, all SC natural that there are moments when i the spectator actually forgets that Turn to the Right" is only a play and not really happening after all.
