COMING STAR LYCEUM COURSE
Will Be Given by Antrim Bureau Ben
eft of High School Athletics said
to be the Best Talent Ever


The Athletic Association is to have
another boost this year in a course of
entertainments by the Antrim Ly-
ceum Bureau that promises to be the
best ever and of as high or higher
than anything ever brought to Smyr-
ma thru the Chautauqua. The first
entertainment will be Tuesday even
ing, October 10, at the Century Club
House. A committee of ladies will
call on you or you will be able to buy
course tickets at Clifton & Jones drug
store. The course in Smyrna leads
off with the famous Shakespearean
play: "The Merchant of Venice" This
play is one of the most finished pro-
ductiOns of Shakespeare and inter-
preted by Mr.. and Mrs. Pierre Pelle-
tier and their Elizabethan Players
who will come to Smyrna, the COM
munity Is promised a treat. There is
perhaps no actor in the field better
able to portray the part of "Shylock"
than Mr.. Pelletier. He has been as
sociated with E. H. Sothen and Julia
Marlowe's Company and knows his
part and how to act it. Mrs. Pelletier
plays "POrtia" with gentleness and
authority. Her youth and beauty com
bined with twelve years of profession
al experience in different roles, makes
her performance a distinct addition to
the play. The remaining members of
the company are all trained Shake
spearean artists. Don't forget the
date.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTABLL TEAM

Franklin COrley Elected Manager
First Game With Delaware City, Friday
Franklin COrley, was elected mana
ger of the football team, and is work
ing hard on the schedule for this fall.
The team is in fine shape and is run
ming thru signal practice every night.
From the showing the boys have made
in the field, there should be no trouble
in their making an enviable record.
Delaware City is getting in shape
also, so there should be a struggle
next Friday, when the two teams meet
on the latter's ground. All those in
terested should make the trip to Del
aware City so as to cheer the boys on
to victory.

HALL-M|lLS CASE
Court Tells New Panel He Hopes
Murder Mystery Will Soon
Be Solved
DETECTIVES ARE OPTIMISTIC

Special Dispatch to Evertno Public Ledoe-
Someryillc. n. j., Dec. 10. -- The
unsolvpd Hall. Mills murder case was
formally laid before the Somerset Coun..
" Grand Jury to lay when 1t convened
for the December term.
Supreme Court Justice Parker gave
no definite instructions on the case,
but said II was one thet should be
.. up Nv the grand jurors. The
justice added he hoped the mystery
would hn solved as soon as possible.
a break seems to have developed
between Wilbur \. Mott, special
Deputy Attorney General, and the
county officials who investigated the
murder of the Rev. Edward Wheeler
Hall and Mrs. Eleanor II. Mills.
Mott said yesterday no new evidence
has been uncovered since the previous
Grand Jury ended its session. Somer d.
set County detectives asserted today
that new and important evidence" has
been obtained since that time. Once
more they came forward with the cx-
pressed belief that indictments can be
obtained.
There are two women on tho now

DOLLAR FALL ST|RS ..
GERMAN BUSINESS
Berlin Shoppers, However, Fail
to Find Any Drop
in Prices
IS EQUAL TO 5000 MARKS
By Associated Press

London, Dec. 1o.--Berlin dispatches
printed here today assert that the sud-
den fall Of the dollar TO approximately
5000 marks, following rumors OF an
American loan. had strange and star
ting results in Germany last week end.
The writer's say that the whole country
was bewidered, and that everybody's
calcula tions. long adjusted to holding
the dollar at something like 5000 marks,
were completely upset.
The people, TO whom every rise in
prices has been represented as due to the
rise in the dollar. logically expected
that its fail would be Immediately fol.
lowed by drop in the cost of living.
and on this assumption thousands Of
persons thronged Bcrlin's shopping dis.
trict on Sunday in the hopes of in
dulging in purchases hitherto beyond
their means.
1t was ''Silver Sunday" the last
before Christmas, on which the police
allow the shops 20 be open and the
shoppers were confident thnt prices
would be way down. To their disap-
pointment, however. the merchandise
they had longed for was rs high as
ever, and consequently they bought
little.
The tradesmen, taking notice of the
peculiar situation. on Monday marked
their goods down 20 per cent. but it was
too late. The people, half eXpcctan'
that a further risc Of the mark would
bring another price cut. kept theil
purse strings tight and the merchants
now have visions of large Christmas
stocks remaining on their hands.
Another striking effect Of tho mark
appreciation Is seen in the fart tha
British coal j. cheaper today il; Ger,
man coast towns than is German coal
! and IL is feared hat il the mark!
improvement is mnintained the doman,
for British fuel will increase md th,
German will become unsneablc Tn,
steel trade also shows the effect Of th
activity in exchange.
Dispatches say that under the cir
cumstnnccs the manufacturers an,
tradcsmcn welcomed yesterdays new
that the dollar had risen again.
