IVES OR NOT" IS A
 STUDY IN CONTRASTS

Few photoplays of recent years have offered such decided contrasts as "Yes or No?" the latest of best offering of photodrapla distributed by First National, in which Norma's double life is shown in it, the story shifting from one to the other with startling rapidity. This is at the Coliseum on Sunday and Mon day. In the home of Margaret Vane we see the social elite frittering away their time while a moment lat CT, whisked by the magic of the nov ing picture camera a few blocks east we encounter Minnie Berry, la boring amid squalid poverty to keep aer home and babies in a manner worthy of the love of her devoted but preoccupied husband
 Of course Miss Talmadge handles both roles. And she does it with a rare skill and charm. Both of her characterizations are excellent, her beauty contributing much to the en loyment of the picture Even as Minnie Berry in gingham and with hair bedraggled this delightful little actress is good to look upon, while in the gorgeous wardrobe she has equipped herself with for the part o! Margaret Vane her beauty is ire sistable.
 Natalie Talmadgc, sister of the star, is also in the large cast.

 The New York critics have to say Of "The Blot" that the exhibitor need have no fear of not pleasing any public.

PEST HERALDs PROSPERITY

Time was when the boil weevil
was the nightmare of the cotton
growers. Today they are invit-
ing the whole country to honor
the pest as the advance agent of
returning prosperity. The boil
weevll has, done what the various
attempts TO curtail the cotton
acreage failed to do, reduced the
crop by IFS ravages to produc-
tion small enough to hurry
panicky buyers into the market
and boost prices.
Champions of the theory that
there is good in everything point
TO the boil weevil's success as
justification. What the cotton
buyers think of it is something
else again. But in their exuber.
ance the cotton growers go so far
as to proclaim the pest a national
benefactor, arguing that the up
turn in the cotton market has
been the starting point towards a
general revival of business. As
one enthusiast. mixing his poetry
and his metaphors. saws. "the
weight of the boil weevil's appc.
lite for cotton in the Young and
suceulent boil turned the pendu.
hum of business and economic
conditions and started the back
swing towards better times"
After this we may expect the
cotton growers, instead of mov-
ing heaven and earth to extermi-
nate the boil weevil. will be found
