Freeport Man First ConUicted
Under New State LatU.

At a trial at Freeport. L. l., yesterday
in the Justices Court, before Judge john
son, James Pisciotta, proprietor OF the
Eagle Shoe and Repair Shop, was found
guilty of unlawfully renting out and
selling Long Island Railroad commuta-
tion tickets and was fined $3.50.
This is the first conviction brought
about by the Long Island Railroad Com
pany under the law enacted April s.,
1922, by the New York State Legisla-
ture making it misdemeanor to mis-
use Communication tickets and other
transportation sold at reduced rates.
Violation of this law is punishable by
Imprisonment In penitentiary or county
jail for not more than one year, or by a
fine of not more than $500. or by both.
1t has been estimated that about 200
monthly communication tickets are being
unlawfully used for passage between
Freeport and New York and between
Freeport and Brooklyn. The commuta-
ton rate between Freeport and Penn
sylvania station is $11.61 a month, or
about SO cents a round trip. AS the
round trip excursion rate between the
same two points is S1.76, the railroad
company actually loses S137 every time

Cardigan Is Real

Cardigan" romantic, historical
drama based on the we'll known novel
by Robert w. Chambers, embodies
true and honest ideals. Never before
in the history of the motion picture
theatregoer have so many vicissitudes
stared him in the face. Scandal has
barred the lives of the favorite screen
stars and actors and the cry has now
gone up: Give us better motion pic
lures; the one ito which we can send
our children and feel that they are
seeing the bright side OF life. With a
view to distributing only the better
motion pictures, the American Releas-
ing Corporation has prepared pic
ture based on the history of America
which has one of the most tremendous
appeals ever put on the screen.
Cardigan" romantic, historical
story of the days before the Revolu-
ton, is to the Revolution what the
Birth of a Nation" is to the Civil war
1t revives the Spirit of 1916" and is
pronounced historically accurate.
Cardigan will long be known as the
Great American Picture. Lit EN-
bodies ali the ideals of true and hon.
est citizenship, and is capable of doing
more toward the Americanization oI
aliens and of kndling anew the fires
of patriotism in the hearts of young
and old than many lectures or month:

ready won renown wherever showr
