"SUDS"

Mary Pickford, who has delighted
so many millions as the glad girl in
"Pollyana" will be seen at the Grand
theatre April 1921 in her latest
United Artists Corporation produc-
ton, Studs" in a role said to be en-
tirely different from anything in
which she has heretofore appeared.
The story was adapted from the
stage play "Op O. Me Thumb in
which Maude Adams appeared with
such great success in Charles Froh
mans Empire theatre in New York
city.
The story has to do with the at
fairs of Amanda Afflick, a pug nosed
homely little slavey in a French
laundry in the slums of the English
city. Amanda is the most woebe-
the other girls in the laundry have
their sWeethearts, and no man has
ever deigned to notice the little
slayey, she weaves a wonderful ro-
nance for her own benefit and the
benefit of the girls in the laundry,
about the owner of a shirt which
had been left to be washed some
months before the story opens.
Amanda tells the girls that she is
really of very high station in life.
but her father, the arch-duke, has
sent her to work in the laundry to
be sure that she will be loved and
eourted for herself alone and not for
her vast fortune. She informs the
eager listeners that when Grace
Greensmith, the man whose name is
on the laundry ticket accompanying
the shirt, appears for his wearing
apparel, it will be a signal that all is
we'll and she can return to her right
ful station in life.

"THE TESTING BLOCK"

Bill Hart is some scrapper, as ev-
erybody knows. but in his new Para
mount picture, THE Testing Block, ~
which comes to the Liberty theatre
April 1924, he is a veritable super
man.
A straying minstrel band, with
lovely girl who plays the violin,
winds through the trails of the Cali
fornia Sierras in the days of gold.
Mr.. Hart is chief of the bandit gang.
They force the players to entertain
them in the heart of the redwood
forest. The half-savage outlaws are
avid in their desire to capture the
girl and Sierra" Bill, (Mr. Hart)
forces them to fight him, one by one,
for the right to claim her. He beats
them all and then, himself half
crazed, seeks the girl and forces her
to marry him. That is the beginning
of story of human tragedy and joy,
which unfolds in might sequence
of compelling incidents.
Mr.. Hart wrote the story. Lam
bert Hillyar adapted and directed it.
The photography was by Joe August,
A. S. C. Eva Novak is the leading
woman.

ton to winning the hand OF a pretty

Winsome Elaine Hammerstein
will appear in what is said to be the
most dramatic role of her entire ca
reer, when her latest Selznick pic
ture, THE Miracle of Manhattan, )"
is shown at the Grand theatre April
24-25.
Distinctly novel is the construc-
ton of plot of Bradley King S photo
play and the Selznick producing
forces under direction of George
Archainbaud have exerted every eff
fort to make this picture one of out
standing interest.
The story in brief relates to a
strange wager made between Evelyn
Whitney, a gilded society butterfly,
and Mary Malone, a destitute girl
who is on the point of starvation.
The woman of wealth claims that
she can start from exactly the posi-
ton the other woman is in and main
tain herself for two months. The
results of this strange pact are most
unexpected and the young woman
in a short time finds herself in a
most dangerous position in which
her life itself is in danger. The out
come of it all is shown in a series
of very dramatic scenes and the final
climax is both original and surprfs-

ship Declared to be Necessary.

london, June 23.-Baron Hava-
shi, the Japanese ambassador to
Great Britain, in an interview to-day
expressed entire agreement with tho
views expressed at the imprial con-
frence concerning the Anglo-Japan-
ese alliance, adding that he was sure
his opinion was shared by the Jap
anese government. Obviously, said
the ambassador, no Japanese govern
ment and no sane Japanese could re-
gard the alliance as in any way en-
visaging strife with America.
"Friendship with the United
States" declared the ambassador, "is
an absolute necessity for Japan, not
only politically but also CONNER
clay, for trade reations with the Uni
ted States Is one Of our greatest as
SETS"
Contending that it was essential
for the peace Of the world that the
utmost friendliness should prevail
between France, Great Britain, the
united states, Japan and China, Bar
on Havashi referred to what he was
pleased to term the existing misun-
derstanding about China, saying:
I'VE regard China as in no way
inferior and wish her to be on terms
Of equality with other nations. We
want politically what we already
have financially in the international
consortium."
The ambassador concluded by de-
ciaring that naval disarmament
would be an inestimabe boon for
the world, and repeating the convic-
ton that the Japanese government;
was ready to discuss disarmament;
and come TO an arrangement with
France, Great Britain and the United
States.

It was while sitting in 'front.' OF the
iron wall Of the treasury vault at

closer to 1t in longing. That Iron wall
reacted on me-"
Mr. Burroughs realized, Of course,
the necessity Of money to provide the
comforts OF existence, and his books
brought him handsome return. And
this recalls an incident of fox hunt
IN which he and his brother, Eben,
Joined about a dozen years ago. Eben
Burroughs lived at Hobart, in the
Catskills, and on this particular hunt
the honors went to Eben, who shot the
fox. At that time fox skins we're

SOUTHERN PINE FOR PAPER.

Birmingham Age-HeraId Ships Wood
to Northern Factory for Trial.
A dispatch from Birmingham,A Ala,
says:
The Birmingham Age-Ferald will
tomorrow morning be published on
paper manufactured from Southern
spruce pine, which grows along the
banks Of the Warrior river and in
the hilly sections Of North Alabama,
covering many thousands of acres.
The paper was manufactured from
wood shipped to Northern mills and
is declared by experts to be the equal
in every respect Of the newsprint
made from Canadian spruce.
The Alabama pine, which is unfit
for lumber, contains an unusually
fine fibre, which has thin bark,
virtually no heart, and contains only
a trace Of rosin. 1t grows for miles
along the Warrior river, averaging
from four to twenty-four cords to the
acre. 1t requires one ton Of wood to
make ton Of paper pulp.
Additional tests are being made
and movement has been started to
establish a large paper mill on the
Warrior for the manufac Vlre of news

Periodical Forays Were Until Com

Thing In tho Island.

Until six years ago head-hunting was
In full swing along the coast OF New
Guinea. writes Rev. E. Cappers In
Catholic Missions, and describes ono
Of these expeditions by the tribe Of
the Marind-anim or Kaya-Kayas. The
practice, he says. has been consider
ably checked by military expeditions
Nevertheless hsad.hunting is still quite
frequent In the interior. On the ap-
pointed day men. women and children
would hasten to the point Of embarkR-
ton. At the approach Of their goal
the boats were anchored, and the en-
tire party stealthlly entered tho forest,
taking care not to give the alarm.
Extra care was needed once the de-
signated spot had been reached. On
the day before the attack the hunters
kept hidden In the bush. and during
the night they advanced far enough
to launch the attack early before dawn.
Occasionally, the hunters were hotly
received. but most Of the time the in-
tended victims were reused from their
sleep by the sudden war-cry Of the
whole attacking party. and had no
time to defend themselves Victims
were felled by the dozen, many Of
them pierced through by the sharp
pointed arrows
The vlctors yelled their war-cry and
repaired to their native haunts, where
days and nights Of feasting awaited
them with song and dance, around the
gruesome trophy.
