On each of two previous mornings
this column had half dozen good
items of encouragement describing
notable improvements going on at
many points in Southern Colorado.
Below is given another cheering
buncn, more on the order of forward
action and effort:

a new schoolhouse. Frost voted in
favor of a new school building; Ci-
marron voted two buildings; Oak

The American

The new American dancing palace is delighting the lovers of the light fantastic nightly and becoming more and more popular. The only draw back now is that the American is hardly large enough to accommodate the throngs that nightly enjoy the wonder orchestra which has aston ished all Phoenix and the Salt River valley It's the music that makes dancing a delight, and the American peerless orchestra is pronounced by all the dancers, by far the best music that has ever been brought to any Phoenix dance pavilion. But because the public has responded so cordially and have supported the efforts of the management of the American danc- ing palace, the Brandon Brothers are from time to time adding new fea- lures, and keeping in mind their promise to make the American the peer of Americas dancing palaces. Beginning Friday night, November Il, Mir. Al Wright one of the three best of America's saxiphone players will join the already peerless orches- tra and help with the regular nightly festivities. Dancing begins promptly at S:30 every evening and discrim- mating dancers will meet with the most courteous attention at the American, where the management will be glad to hear your desires and to act upon any good suggestions for your comfort or your pleasure.

Coming to the Rialto.

very popular motion picture an- nouncement comes from the Rialto in the statement that starting next Sat urday that screen will be devoted to the presentation of George Loane Fuckers production for Paramount
 Ladies Must Live" with Betty Compson in the leading feminine role. One cannot mention the name of George Loane Tucker, without in the same breath remembering his great achievement-"The Miracle Man"-that masterwork which swept America off it's feet-and then on the other side of the world-duplicate the same success in every country. The combination of George Loane Tucker and "The Miracle Man'-is one that will ever remain green in the estimation of the picture de- votees-and the fact that this master producer has again brought to the silent drama a production which the reviewers and critics are frank to admit even excels the former tri-
 umph-is indeed an event of ex- traordinary interest Tucker has ever been associated with the better class of pictures-his ideals lofty ~his endeavors nspired-therefor the very utmost in screen entertain ment. His art combined beauty with force = entertainment with teaching-uplift and influence for good with eye pleasing and thought satisfying action and theme. and 1t IS little wonder. therefore, that he rapidly forged to the very top of the ladder. Deviating entirely from the theme of "The Miracle Man, Geo Loane Tucker has produced in Ladies Must Live" perhaps the greatest woman's picture ever

which contains a wealth of ridicu lous situations, splendid comedy with frequent climaxes, giving the big ac- tor cast of the Broadway Girls com pany plenty of opportunities. The new breezy song numbers and the excellent speciality numbers arranged for this bill gives the principals and chorus girls as well as the big or chestra chance to score with the audience. The Broadway Girls com pany carry their own scenery, ward robe and stage settings and comprise sixteen artists in all. most of whom are dainty bits of femininity who just can't make their feet and eyes behave. Add to this a real orchestra of six pieces and the new Ramona stage and you have the best family stock company and theatre in the state. The big Paramount Aircraft feature "The Copperhead," starring Lionel Barrymore and adapted from the story of the same name by Au- gustus Thomas will furnish the counter attraction on the silver screen with a select Century Com edy added.4 Two shows nightly at 7:S0 and 9:30 p. m.. is the regular Ramona policy.

him to be a neat sort of thing to do. The lawyer rose in horror.
 Do nothing of the kind." he said. This judge is an unright and honor able man; under no circumstances could he be bribed. In fact, he is of such rectitude that were you to send him a brace of ducks in ad- vance of the trial. he would prob ably lean so far backward that he would be against you. Forget all about the duck scheme"
 In due course the case came up and the decision was given. It was in favor of the man who had planned the gift. He met his lawyer. 'sW ell,' he said, i've won our case"
 ''Yes." said the lawyer. land aren't you glad you didn't send the judge those ducks2"
 But did send 'em," said the cli- ent.

screened. It is a resume of the fair sex-their fads-their fancies-their dealings with life-their dealings with men-for after all-'ladies must live"-but how-that's the theme hit on by Alice Duer Miller in the original story which appeared in the Saturday Evening Post, and vis- ualized so wonderfully well in the screen version which will hold the Rialto screen starting next Satur- day. Ladies Must Live" just fin ished it's engagement at Graham's million dollar theatre Sunday-and reading of the press of the coast town will leave no doubt in the mind of anyone as to its reception not only by the reviewers and the crit ics. but by the public who were prompt in their response in greeting a picture the entire nation has awaited since the publication of "The Miracle Man'-and emphatic in their unlimited praise. Tucker has gathered many of the foremost lumi- naries of the screen in the cost which will be found in the production. Leading off with Betty Compson whose Rose" in The Miracle Man" earned for her stardom, the players include Robert Ellis, Mahlon Hamil- ton, Leatrice Joy, Hardee Kirkland, Cleo Madison, Snitz Edwards, Gin son Cowland. Lucille Hutton, Jack Macdonald and Arnold Gregg.
 Ladies Must Live" will be screened without advance in prices. and the management is early urging attendance during the matinee shows.

YOUNG PEOPLE IF CITY ID APPEAR IN
 VAUDEVILLE SK|T

Three local young people-Ben Henshaw, prominent young business man, Eleanor Stephens, daughter of Ed Stephens of the livestock com mission, and Connor Johnson, son of Dave Johnson of the corporation commission, are the "troupe" which will present-for the first time before the public their own vaudeville sketch Squirrel Haven''-announced as nut act"-Thurs,sa and Friday evenings at the Rialto-the act ap- bearing between the first and second screenings in the evening of the De- Havens in their roaring farce-"The Girl in the Taxi,-tIe feature pie ture.
 The announcement that these local folks had written and produced a vaudeville act aroused a world of in terest among their friends and acquaintances, second only to the an- nouncement that the Rialto would stage the public ''tryout' on the even ing specified.
 The act is an amateur affair. and according to the principals, a pot pouri of humor and wit. snappy and fast, alive with the keenest satire put across in ''big league" style by the embryonic headliners. The sin- stigators'' are very anxious that the public pass their judgment on the merits of the affair, and through the arrangements made with Richards & Mace, Squirrel Haven'' will be the first "speakie" to adorn the stage al the beautiful Rialto.
 George J. Hayes has consented tC handle the 'ivories" of the big mighty voiced Wurlitzer pipe organ during the presentation of the act Oh yes-there is music scattered through the performance-for where would a pot pouri get without musi- cal establishment. Just what the nature of the music is and what

Tom Moore at the Strand

The final screenings of Tom Moore's exceedingly clever comedy, Made in Heaven" will take place at the Strand today. Made in Heaven is a thrill
 ing farce comedy, very romantic in theme, very funny in execution, and very appealing in the fascinating manner in which Tom Moore presents the leading character. that if New York fireman who becomes involved in love affair in which a society belle is the other party. The comedy gets under way when Tom Moore rescues Helene Chadwick from a burning building. In a few days he meets the girl in the park, and she tells him her identity and that she was in the burning building, as re- suit of her leaving home to escape a distasteful marriage. The gallant Irish lad Suggests a marriage with him. he to leave her immediately the ceremony is performed, to seek to communicate with her in no way, and to grant her a divorce the moment she asks for it. The idea is to give her the protection of the wedding ring against the intrigue of the girls folks. The scheme worked beautifully until the Irish lad found himself in love with the girl, and the girl found herself in love with the Irish lad-and then romance, and romance as only Tom Moore knows how to put it across. Between the wit and the hu- nor and the romantic appeal the au- dience is kept in a perfect atmosphere of happiness throughout the entire filming. Tomorrow starts the en- gagement of Jackie Coogan in Peck Bad Boy,'' which will hold the screen for three days, with a kiddies' special 3-cent matinene Saturday afternoon.

"A Wise Foorr at Riaito

Today will see the final screenings at the Rialto of George Meiford's spe- cial Paramount picture, "A Wise Fool" the screen adaptation of Sir Gilbert Parker's stirring Canadian novel, "The Money Master" No more soul-stirring exposition of human na- ture has possibly ever been written by Gilbert Parker than '"The Money Master" With wonderful regard for logic and reason. he has in the story of the Quebec citizen, whose life was guided by a cheap philosophy, woven a powerfully appealing theme, a plot towering in it's strength, and with it- all a document so simply and so fun damentaIly true that it is inspiring in it's influence. And with that same regard for the authors intent that made Behold My Wife" one of the biggest features of the season just closed, George Melford has trans ferred the novel. page by page, to the silver sheet, maintaining at all times the environment of thrills and rug gedness reflected in the panoramic wonderment of scenic grandeur which the production reveals. The central character is Jean Jacques Barbille, wealthy and successful citizen of Quebec. He has married a Spanish woman. but through all the years of married life the wife never fully un- derstood the husband. His unmean
 ing coldness struck as neglect, his views of life so foreign to hers that her life settled itself down to mis- cry, a condition from which she saw no escape except in flight. Through all the years of fortune building by her husband the wife nursed her heartache, the climax coming when she deserts her husband, and shortly after their daughter elopes with the man of her choice. a marriage to which the philosopher" objected These two blows were but the fore runner of financial ruin, and it is in the wreck of a lifetime effort that the philosopher finds his grave errors and snts a11t tn ractify them. Through

the latter chapters of the story Sir Gilbert Parker has struck perhaps the richest vein of human appeal he has yet woven into a story. making for climax that will live long in the memory of all who see the picture. Tomorrow brings the De Havens in ''The Girl in the Taxi" with the added attraction in the amateur vaudeville act to be presented by Ben Henshaw, Eleanor Stephens and Connor John son, three well known local young folks, who will present an original skit written and produced by them selves. This act will be presented between the first and second shows of the evening at about g o'clock.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE JOURNEYS END
 6 TO OPEN AT TIE COL J M 3 IA TODAY

Bringing feature film of more tnan usual interest Mauk's Coluu- pla theatre has booked Hugo Ballin's masterpiece, "The Journeys End" Tor a three-day run beginning to- day. The Journeys End" is the iirst serious drama ever brought to the screen without a single subtitle from beginning to end. This is very unusual feature; as heretofore suotftles have been relied upon to carry out ideas that could not con- Veniently have been relied upon to carry out ideas that could not con veniently be expressed by action. and were considered a more or less nec essary evil. In "The Journeys End" however, the plot unfolds the utmost lucidity and sub stitles would be superfluous. None of the story is lost and all the ideas are clearly ex- pressed by action alone.
 The story concerns a cultured con vent girl who comes from Rome to vislt her uncle, in a mill town in Pennsylvania. Through force of cir cumstances she marries mill hand who is infinitely her inferior. The years fly by and she finds that she can never be happy ip her present level of life. Then she meets the mill owner, a man who is her equal in every way. A strong attachment is formed that soon grows into love and her fight with her conscience in trying to decide between her duty to her husband and baby and the die tate of her heart, is a masterpiece of acting. How fate intervenes at this stage and clears things up for the lovers, makes one of the most in- teresting stories ever screened.

INFLUENCING THE JUDGE

In the days when strategy and subtlety may win as many victories as oratorical explosions, we com mend to the careful attention of pol iticians and others the account of a certain law case which occupied some slight local attention up in Northern New England some years ago. It was a land case; and one of the parties, eager for a verdict, consulted his lawyer as to the ad
 visibility of sending the judge fine brace of ducks. It appeared to
