'.MY OLD KENTUCKY HOME"
 FEATURED AT ALCAZAH

My Old Kentucky Home," screen adaptation of Anthony Paul kelly's story of the same name, is show ing this week at the Alcazar. It features Monte Blue, supported by an all star cast. MT, Blue is one of the screens most popular ar lists and his work in this picture is considered his crowning achieve ment.
 The story is of charming theme with true "old southern" flavor. It introduces an aristocratic young man of Kentucky, who through being falsely accused of crime is sen fenced to two years imprisonment. After serving his term he comes out, discouraged and penniless. He is be- friended by two semi-crooks whom he happens to meet and takes re- fuge m their shabby home. Later, when the youth expresses the desire to go back home, they divide their meager little pile and generously furnish him with the necessary funds.
 Back home he goes; to a little white haired mother in great white mansion She knows nothing of his imprisonment and seeks to find out why he has been absent so long. See ing his pain upon being questioned, however, she abstains from forcing him to explain. There Is also an- other who would like an explana- tion, s"the girl he left behind, but, rather than tell his tragic secret, he allows her to think that he has neg lected her.
 1t is then that the audience is treated to a thrilling race at the Kentucky derby at which Dixie" prancing race horse owned by the little mother, wins with honors. Everything would have been fine had not the vanquished opponent. in a jealous rage, acquainted the moth CT with her sons prison record, which brings about climax which is highly dramatic and full of sus- reuse.
 In addition to this gripping dra- ma, the Alcazar Is, also showing A Rag Doll Romance" comedy.

FARM LABOR NOW EXCEEDS
DEMAND AND WAGES NORMAL

The supply OF farm labor has now
practically reached its normal pro.
portions, according to . statement by
the United States department of sg-
riculture. Two years ago there was
barely three-fourths Of a normal sup
ply. Expressed in percentages, in
1920 the, ratio Of supply to demand
was 50 per cent. On April this
year, it was Ill per cent. In other
words.~St present farm labor is offer
ing its services in larger degree
than farmers are able to employ. The
decrease in price Of farm machinery
combined with the decrease In price
Of farm labor and the abundant sup
ply of it justifies the prediction that
the crops OF 1929 will be produced
at less cost than for six or seven
years. s@s

JAPAN IN An UPHEAvAL
I'm the Far East the cost of living
is highest in Japan and there is
much turmoil in that country. Much
money was made in Japan during
the war and it shipped vast quaint
ties OF goods.
The Japanese substituted as far
as possible. sent out poor goods and
much Of this is now being returned
AS a result. Japanese goods can't
be sold. And the Germans are max
ing trade invasion,
what many Of the Japanese need
is real standard OF honesty. They
are the greatest imitators in the
world
"Bolshevism Is also having a
strange effect upon the Japanese
masses. During my stay in Japan
there was much excitement over the
woman suffrage question, and
coolie attempted to force his way
into the enperor's palace, using
bomb in the effort.
MODS formed for either Industrial
or political purposes and police
charged them. The japanese ship
yards during my stay attracted
much attention.
