Lionel Barrymore, who is starred
in "Jim the Penman," the Associated
First National Pictures, Inc, produc-
ton, which will be the attraction at
the Rialto theatre, tuesday, Wednes-
day and Thursday, enacts a role in
this photoplay entirely different from
any he has ever done for the screen.
The production is an up -to-date Amer
icanized version of melodrama that
has been popular on the English and
American stage for many years.
] Mr.. Barrymore has the role of
bank cashier who has remarkable
ability for initiating signatures. The
first time he uses this talent dis
the bank, who is also the father of
the girl the cashier lopes, from dis
grace.
The forgery is discovered and he
barters his services to a ring of in
ternational criminals for a period of
twenty years. The climax comes
when the criminals insist on him COM

engaged. Domingos world famous

Vivid Cattle Stampede in "Sky Pilot"
A cattle stampede, so realistic that
even the most blase of Broadway's
motion picture fans were moved to
applause, is a feature of "The Sky
Pilot" a Cathrine Curtis production,
| released as an Associated First Ma
tional attraction, which will be shown
beginning Friday, for two-day en-
gagement at the Rialto theatre.
Since the beginning of motion pic
lures, directors have attempted to
reach the superlative in making their
audiences thrill with the emotions of
fear and suspense; and many times
have they succeeded. But never, it is
declared, has the equal of King Vidor's
striking stampede scenes been alloy
ed with celluoid. Four thousand head
of cattle in mad lunge toward the
camera provide dramatic tension that
stands in place by itself in motion
,1,o+,,ca
In order to film these scenes it was
necessary to plant" the cameras in
an eight-foot- pit. Nine different
cameras and cameramen were called
upon for the filming.
Featured in "The Sky Plot" are
Colleen Moore, John Bowers, David
Butler and Harry Todd. The story
was taken from Ralph Connor's book
of the same title. The musical pro-
gram of the world famous Doningo's
Filipino Serenaders will be entirely
different from that rendered the early
part ofthe week.

Miss Hammerstein plays the part
of Nadia Castleton, impetuous, inde-

daring, wholly adorable, and she
makes her character completely dis

whimsicalities through action which is
actually Kaleidoscope. The story it.

WHY WAGES ARE LOW

Boston.-Inefficiency and exploita-
ton are causes Prof. Felix Frankfur-
ter, of Harvard university, assigns
for low wages.
Wages are low not because busi-
ness cannot afford to pay more, but
because business is Inefficient" he
said. "The tremendous waste in ad-
ministration and organization is re-
vealed by Mr.. Hoover, whose business
opinion, / am convinced, you will re-
spect. Then, too, wages are low be-
cause they are kept low through ex-
ploitation."

Officers of the State Federation of
Labor declare that the new program
will undo the humanitarian work of
the former warden.
"The new warden" it is stated, "is
one of the men in our state least
fitted to successfully administer the
affairs of our state penal institutions,
as demanded by the rules of modern
civilized society. Modesty forbids us
suggesting the place he is best fitted
to fill in the penitentiary."

HUGE TOBACCO PRO

New York.--The world has a rose
ate hue for stockholders of the Amer
lean Tobacco Company, which an
nounces that record profits were made
last year. These profits total $751;

these profits can be appreciated when
it is recalled that they are exclusive

for Alden l.. Bailey

A part Of the time of the morn-
ing service Sunday morning at
Grace Methodist church was very
appropriately devoted TO a mem
orial to the late Alden L. Bailey,
who for forty-six years was al
active and honored member of
that church.
The pastor, Rev, DR.. George w.
Hylton spoke foelingly of Mr..
Bailey's devotion to his church
and home and called attention to
the fact that he had given the best
years of his strength, foresight,
devotion and sacrifice to the
church he loved.
Judge Harry Blodgett, a long
time business friend and associate
on the official board of the church,
read an appropriate memorial 20
Mr. Bailey, speaking intimately
of his long acquaintance and inter
est in him.
Mr.. Bailey's accustomed pew
on the middle right aisle Of the
church was marked with white
satin ribbon, and a bouquet g.
white carnations for the service.

VencQ LnlS morning, SIlI Uiiuei
discussion.
When the Dali was convened
this morning canon de Valera
arose and placed his resignation
as president of the Irish republic
formally before the House. Mrs.
James J Clark moved the re-elec-
ton of Mr.. De Valera as president
and Liam Mellowes seconded the
motion.
Michael Collins, supporter of the
Irish treaty, which was ratified
Saturday, said that no one in the
Dali wished to be put in the posi-
ton of opposing Mr.. de Valera.
He pointed out that the Dali was
now faced with the problem OF
taking over the government from
the British. He suggested the for
nation of committee whose mem
bers would be chosen from both
sides of the Dali to keep the
peace. He said work was needed,
not talk.
Arthur Griffith, speaking after
Collins hade concluded, said tn
question of the treaty had been
constitutionally settled and that
there was nothing to prevent its
terms being carried out. After
the nomination of Dc Valera for
the presidency, Collins said ad-
dressing the Dali, he would not OBJ
iect to the reelection of Mr.. De
Valera but that if Mr.. De Valera
was elected the people would turn
out the Dali as the Dali would be
the laughing stock of the world.

TROJAN FIVE
INVADES TOWN
TUESDAY NIGHT
New York Basketeers
Will Give LegiOn-Co. D
Snappy Contest

Fans looking for a good basket
ball contest will not be disappoint-
cd in the game which Manager r..
II. Caswell has scheduled with the
Troy, N. Y, team for Tuesday
evening. The Trojans have been
on an extended toud of New Eng
land, recently invading the state
of Maine. In a series of games
with the premier aggregations in
the Pine Tree state, the invaders
have managed to break even
which is a good record for any
quintet continually on the road.
A team always shows up con-
TSieterably better on its own floor,
but if it can win half of the con-
tests away from home it is doing
well. The size and shape of baS-
| ket ball courts on the road, AMI
the necessarily disadvantageous
jumping from town to town, tend
to lend the home five a distinct,
if slight, superiority. Neverthe-
less, the Trojans will arrive in
st. Johnsbury with plenty of rest
and will give the locals a snappy
contest at the Armory.
The visitors are carrying four
forwards on their roster, includ-
ing such stars as Helwig, Liney
Burnam, and Bingham. At the pi-
votal position will Jump "Curley'
Burns, who appeared here last
season with the fast Windsor. five
which defeated the Company j
team. Costello and Paulson will
be seen in the invading backfeld
and guarantee plenty Of opposi-
ton for "Chick" Burch and
"Lucky" Fisk, the local forwards

held at the Armory Saturday af-
ternoon. Albert GoSlant who eX-
perienced some difficulty with his
hip is expected to be in the best
Of condition for the game Tuesday
night Fisk was also a casualty
of the hard game played against
the Hanover A. c., but when the
whistle sounds tomorrow evening
he will be on the floor groomcd
for action.
Beginning Tuesday evening re-
serve seats at so cents will be of
fered for sale. The reserve seats,
in number about 100, will be the
first two rows on the entrance
side of the hall at the Armory
Manager Caswell announces tha.
they will go on sale at Searles
drug store at 600 Tuesday even
ing.
The regular admission of 35
cents is continued and will be in
force as usual. Reserve seats are
offered to those patrons of bas-
ketball who do not wish or who
have not the time to wait before
a game. 1t is believed that the
new idea will be welcomed by the
fans.

IMPRESSIVE
FUNERAL FOR
MIR. THRASHER
Rev. L. A. Edwards Pays
High Tribute to Pro-
minent Newport Man

Saturday afternoon in the
Congregational church old friends
and business associates gathered
to pay last tribute of respect
and esteem to life long friend,
one prominent for many years in
the business and social life Of
Newport, Homer Thrashcr, who

officiating clergyman and paid d
high tribute to Mr.. Thrasher'S S
memory, and the place he held in
the hearts of those who had been
so intimately associated with him
during his long and active life in
Newport. His going out brings
an especial feeling Of sadness to
older residents Of Newport who
see the figures familiar since child
hood too rapidly disappearing.
Mr.. Thrasher was of genial
friendly nature, interested in the
affairs of the day and ever alert
to help with his time or advice in
any movement for the bettcrmcut

ness man. and was honored by

and lister for many years and rep
resented his town in the Legisla-
ture of 1890.

80 years of age at the time of his
death. He was the son Of Charles

| ter a two years experience with
