SUPERNATURAL
STORY OF A
Sci FISH SNOB

A supernatural story Of q super
selfish snob in the Metro super-spe-
cial feature is good way to describe
the big offering at the Colonial thea
ire today. In other words, Bert Lyt-
ell. the handsome and popular Metro
star. will be seen in "A Message from
Mars" a Metro adaptation Of the
great stage play of the same name.
In this feature, there are many I'M
usual things worthy Of note. The
Metro people, through tho door Of
Maxwell larger, the director. proba-
bly, established a record for double
exposures for there are 800 in this,
all made necessary to represent the
transparency Of the mysterious mes
senger from Mars. Then, too. tho
world famous Serova ballet appears
in the picture in the Christmas Fes-
tival scene.
The story deals with the regenera-
ton from selfishness of a wealthy
young Englishman, who takes every
thing for granted, and puts every
thing in its subservient place, his n
ancee included. She leaves him final
ly. and everything is tottering around
him when a sudden conversation OF
soul at the sight of suffering hu-
mainly brings him to the right goal.
This is due to messenger from Mars
condemned to haunt the most selfish
man on earth.

MANY CATTLE BREEDERS WANT
TO HAVE ACCREDITED HERDS

The work of Kidding the country of
bovine tuberculosis thru the accredit-
ed-herd system. which is based upon
Federal supervision and the issuance
of certificates by the United States
Department of Agriculture is making
steady progress throughout the coun-
try. The state of Minnesota has been
leading in the number of fully accred-
tied herds and the number of cattle
certified free of the disease, but the
report for September shows that the
lead has gone to Wisconsin. The lat
ter state now has 1909 accredited
herds containing 30. 001 head of cat
tie. Minnesota has LII accredited
herds with 2S,0S9 cattle.
The total numbe.. of herds accred-
tied in the United States is 1859.
The number of cattle in the country
certified free of the disease is 230.704.
There are II, 999 herds and s4s,244
herds of nettle that have been tested
once and, presumably will be on the
accredited list. There are 1,546,s14
cattle in 1O3.046 herds now under
Federal supervision.
The demand for inspections and
tests under this tuberculosis cleanup
plan. is so great that the inspector
can not keep up. AT present there are
1861 herds on the waiting list.
These herds contain nearly quarter
of "a million of cattle. During Sep
tember 1853. 742 cattle were tested In
the various states. On these, 6,093 or
81 per cent, reacted.
