POli Review

A story with a unique plot ana unique characters is the photo-play feature at PoH's theatre when ''The Man Who Saw Tomorrow" starring Thomas Meighan, is shown. This is really two big pictures put into one. Meighan is seen as a handsome young diplomat who fancteS himself in love with two women but does not know which to marry. There was a beauti- full and simple little maid, the daugh- ter of sea captain whom he met on e South Sea Island whose gift to him i. in marriage would be her whole heart. her whole interest and her whole self; then there was the attractive, faS- cinating, egotistic English noblewoman who would commercialize her mar T riage to the clever diplomat and use her husband as nothing more than q stepping stone for her ambitions.
 Meighan consults a friend who is supposed to have mystical power and who gives him a glimpse of what his life would be with either woman. MT. Aeighan, is assisted in the picture by Miss Leatrice Joy, Theodore Roberts, Eva Novak and other wen-known players

 Tax for StratfOrd

Stratford, Dec. 12.-Stratford's tax rate for the fiscal year 1922-23 should not exceed 25 mills. Council Chair man Donald Sammis said last night when Councilman Walter A. Keeling asked for information relative to the rate which twill have to be set to meet appropriations in the Council budget at a Council meeting.
 If the back taxes come in as we expect there is no reason why the tax rate for the 13 months covered hy this rate should not stay within p mi1ls.'' said Chairman Sammis.

Over their graves the poppies blooming,
Red the petals which kiss the moss;
Over them softly the blue skies bending
Tell them, wild bird who sings in the forest
That kept faith with heroes who fell
And if they stir in the midst of their sleeping,
Sing of their victory and whisper "Alls WE'LL
Soft in the haze of the magical moonlight
Cleaning like silver the gently flows;
Sweet the breath Of the southwind is waited
Scent of the jasmine lily
Tell them, O river whose have been crimsoned
With the rich blood that flowed from their VEINS
through the their shall be honored
By Of their birth they protected
Brilliant with splendor the sunlight is falling
Soft as the dew the leaves of the trees,
And in the twilight when shadows falling
Sweet is the music that's borne the breeze;
Somewhere from far the call of a bugle,
Faint in elfland, yet clearer by far;
the spirits of the legion that's fallen
To gather by night meath the light of the star
Rest forever, ye brave! The which you carried
Was caught and held high brave spirits fed,
And here at your shrine the Nation pays homage
Columbia will remember her dead.
In the shall leave you forever;
No spot is than that where you fell;
From the Argonne we'll scatter garlands
WHO sleeping, and whisper "Als we'll"

Gistency spf Methodist leaders to pro-
