NEW STYLE VAMP USES PSY-
GEOLOGY IN THE LOVE GAME

1.-THE vamp is dead. Long live the
vamp!"
Scarcely anyone will deny that the
old vamp, with her crude methods of
physical appeal, her allure of the
flesh, is gOne-and good riddancel
Consumed in her own flame, she is
only ashes, from which rises, Phoe-
nix-like, the new vamp, with another
name, different method, and more
certain and lasting results.
The newest type of vamp is intro
duced to the screen in Realart pic
ture by Harvey O'Higgins, "The Love
Charm" starring Wanda Hawley, at
the Kenworthy Saturday
For girl or woman can win the
man she wants without sacrificing
her self-respect by using the almost
infallable law of symbols, and playing
upon his subconscious memories of
the people and things which were
dear to him in childhood

THE INFLTENCE OF TRUST

Who can know the heart of half
breed. Who can measure its sad
ness; know it's longing for sympathy
and understanding; feel its hope, its
desire, it's fear, its love?
Buck, the noble central character
of ACROSS the Divide" the Play
goers feature at the Liberty Theatre
Sunday, was the son of an Indian
mother and a white father In the
village he was an outcast and abused
by all. His father had deserted him
and his mother and married the
daughter of wealthy rancher.
Buck hated his father; he hated
the white blood in him that called
him to civilization. TIE Indian strain
brought out a fatalistic melancholy.
He was perhaps the saddest, most
for1orn man in the world-nobody on
the road to nowhere when a great
trust was given him.

MONDAY AND TUESDAY

His fathers wife was dying from
her husbands cruelty. She feared to
trust her little son and the fortune he
would inherit when he was twenty
one, to his brutal father. In despera-
ton, she appealed to Buck to take
care of his baby half-brother.
The baby's arms clung appealingly
to Buck and he could not withstand
their appeal. 1t was the first answer
to that call Of his white blood for
sympathy and understanding. From
that day on his life was devoted to
making an upright man of the son
of worthless father.
Rex Ballard plays the role of the
half-breed and also that of the father
in ACROSS the Divide" CO-starring

Missed Main Section.
The two sections in the path of the
storm are in the outlying sections and
few persons in the main part of the
city knew of the tornado having
struck until this morning. Organized
plans for a search of the debris is be-
ing effected and preparations are un-
der way to care for the homeless.
Approximately 100 persons are with
out homes and their household and
personal effects are strewn for blocks.
Barely a dwelling in the storms path
escaped the terrific wind. Portions of
houses were carried for hundreds OF
feet.
An unusual incident was the fact
that but one house in the southeast
section escaped destruction. The wind
failed to topple it over, but literally
swept it with flying debris from the
other wreckage.
Preceded by Heavy Rain.
The home OF Harve Shelton in the
northeaBt-portion was completely de-
molished, but none of the seven MEM
bers of the Shelton family received
more than slight cuts. A terrific rain
preceded the tornado. Halloween
celebrators who were still out at that
hour said their attention was at
tracted by a heavy roar and then OBJ
served the tornado's approach.
Two persons were taken to a local
hospital shortly after the storm, which
lasted but a few minutes, had passed
Others were treated for injuries of
more or less seriousness by physicians
who were summoned. -.
