This production will mark his return 10 the stage after two years In motion pictures.
 Change of Name .... 4

Another reason was be- cause he did not want his friends to know 1t If he should prove a failure. MT. Miltern has been on the stage for the past 2S years.

'MANSLAUGHTER' ID
 HEAD PALACE BILL
John Miltern Appears in Demille
 Triumph

In keeping up with the policy to of- fer the best attractions in the photo play world. the Palace will present for a four day run starting Sunday night Cecil B. De Miles greatest photoplay triumph ''Manslaughter," as taken from the novel of the same name, by Alice Duer Miller. The selection of Thomas Meighan to play the leading male role in this picture was the re- suit of a widespread popular request, according to MT. De Mile.
 When 1t was announced that Para mount had secured the screen rights to "Manslaughter," critics and fans throughout the country showered both Mr. De Mile and MT. Meighan with letters in which the writers pointed out the particular fitness of the latter for the part of Daniel O'Bannon, district attorney.
 Yielding to this popular request, Adolph Zukor. Jesse L. Lasky and Mir. De Mile decided at a conference held while Mir. Zukor was at the West Coast studio. to hold up the plans of the next Meighan starring vehicle and permit the star to play
 
 the role. ... .-..
 Leatrice Joy was chosen by Mr. De Mile for the leading feminine role. ..
 There were no photographers to re- cord the dress and customs of the day when the barbarians overthrow an clent Rome. Nevertheless, Cecil B. De Mile has produced an historically faithful reproduction of this.
 The episode in question is a his torical cutback which vvidly depicts the descent of the barbarian hordes upon Rome.
 Leatrice Joy. who is one of the principals of the modern portion of the story, Is the hostess at lavish ly beautiful Roman bacchanal which is interrupted by Thomas Meighan in the role of the leader of the Goths. Lois Wilson. John Miltern and Casson Ferguson are the other members of the notable cast who appear in this sequence.
 A strikingly realistic gladiatorial combat is one of the many interest ing features of the bacchanalian en- tertainment
 Good Vaudeville On Bill.
 The Keith vaudeville bill for the first half of the week has an excel lent array of talent that will prove quite entertaining. Fern, Bigelow and King will offer a comedy skit in pan tomime that is said to be riot Pan tomine acts are scarce in vaudeville these days and this one will be en- joyed immensely: George c. Davis the oldest and best of the present day monologists, will offer talk on topics of the day which. will bring many a good laugh: the Three Zanys are musical comedy favorftes and will present an excellent singing, talking and dancing act that will make them a hit on the bill, and the Jack George Duo, considered one of the best mu- sical acts in vaudeville come here from great success on Broadway.
 The change of bill on Thursday will bring as the feature attraction Marshall Neilan's photoplay hit Bits of Life" This is a real novelty in the movie line as four distinct stories are unfolded during the showing of th, film. The cast is one that has }1fany popular stars including Lon Chaney, Wesley Barry. Noah Beery, and Anna May Wong. Lon Chaney, the famous character actor, plays the greatest role of his career.

PRESENTS REPORT
OF YEARS WORK
CIRCULATION OF LIBRARY
BOOKS OVER
100000

The annual report of Miss Cora Lam
sing, librarian, shows an increase of
over 800 in the circulation of books
of the Wausau Public library during
the past year. The report, read at a
meeting of the library board last
Thursday afternoon, shows the total
number of books circulated during
1921 as 104, 249, and the growth in
circulation during the past few years
as averaging about 5000 year.
The largest circulation for ane one
month was March with 11,430 books
drawn and the busiest day was Feb
ruary &c, when 1,018 books were loan
ed. New books have been added to
the total of 1858 and 75S were with
drawn The net gain therefore, is
610.
The public schools of the city make
large demands on the library for ref
erence books and the Y. w. c. A., Boy
Scouts, women's clubs and other or
CARNATIONS are using the library ia
cilities to a large extent. reference
work having shown a steady growth.
The county board appropriated $500
for the purchase of books to assist
the county circulation which for 1921
stands at 62S1. Stations in the coun-
ty at Elderon, Unity and in the town
of Reid make it easier for residents
of the county to obtain books, and
boys clubs have taken advantage of
the opportunity to procure re ference
works on the subjects they are inter-
eSted in.
