tire tomorrow. This touch is found
in the prologue which shows the
North country in the days of the
French Chevalier. when knights

comes in decided contrast with the
story itself, which deals with the
North country at the present day.
All the scenic beauty of the North

the roles, make this picture one OF
the biggest Curwood productions to
be presented to the American public
Tt has been said of James Oliver
Curwood that he is one of the few
writers who write action. and that his
stories are more easily adapted to
the screen than any other work.
Flower of the North is consider

books.

DAVE THEATRE.

Mother takes a hack seat and
father comes into the limelight in
1.-The Good Provider.'' featuring Vera
Gordon and Dore Davidson, which
will be presented at the DAVE thea
ire tomorrow. This picture bears
considerable resemblance to 'Humor-
esque," but differs from it in that it
is regarded by some critics as even a
better production. Like f'Humor-
esque," it was written by Fannie
Hurst and directed by Frank Borzage.
The Good Provider," a Cosmo-
politan-Paramount picture, is an epic
of fatherhood. Its General character.
Julius Binswanger, is a merchant who
by dint of unceasing toll, self-inlim o.
lation and devotion raises his wife
and two children from the status of
Russian immigrants to comfortably
situated small-town middle class folk.
And no sooner are they prosperous
than Becky, Izzy and Pearl, the chill
dren, tire of the country town and
long for the city-the haven Of girls
searching for husbands.
Few men can long resist the plead
ings of wife and children, and event.
ually they go to New York where
Julius soul is daily scared by the
blatant music of cabarets and soaring
expenses. The old man is driven to
the wall, his health is breaking. his
family neglects his wants and jibe at
his ''old-fashioned ideas. Then the
break comes and bankruptcy con-
fronts him.

producers in this district are plan

inland waterways in an effort to
avoid high freight rates. The Jones

experiment by loading a barge feet

effort that other fleets have been

Pine is used in nearly all prescrip-
tons and remedies for coughs. The
reason is that pine contains several
elements that have a remarkable
effect in soothing and healing the
membranes of the throat and chest.
Pine cough syrups are combinations
OF pine and syrup. The syrup" part
is usually plain sugar syrup.
To make the best pine cough remedy
that money can buy, put 2k ounces
of Pinex in pint bottle, and fill up
with homemade sugar syrup. Or
you can use clarified molasses, honey,
or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup.
Either way, you make a full pint
more than you can buy ready-made
for three times the money. 1t is

yesterday afternoon and arraigned
on a charge CT completely in the

Trottnow declared that Foster was
one OF the two men he saw running
out of the Midland company Office
after the robbery had been COM
mitted, and after Miss Alice Sam
uelson, Office employee, had been
beaten and choked.
Miss Samuelson also testified at
the hearing. She said that she did
not get a. good look at the man who
beat and choked her, but that Fos-

like her assailant.
James "Gampey" Powers, alleged
confederate, was also arraigned,
but there was no evidence con-

ADJUSTMENTS
AT the Spencer Square.

The Goldwyn film sensation,
Theodore" which is now showing
at the Spencer Square theatre, is
declared to be one production that
is critic proof, an important state
ment when it is taken into consid-
Grafton that it is the biggest crea-
ton that the screen has ever seen.
In the first place the drama it
self is the work of one of the
worlds greatest writer's, Victorien
Sardou- Theodore" on the speak
ing stage, served as vehicle for
Sarah Bernhard and many other
famous actresses. The screening
of Sardou's famous romance is
built around the histronic person
age of Empress Theodore, who
ruled the Roman empire in the
sixth century as the wife Of the eel
ebrated Justinian.
Historians have disagreed for
many centuries about the virtues
and faults of the great Theodore,
but all agree that she was of sur
passing loveliness and exquisite
charm. Theodore, discovered of
humble origin, a girl of the circus,
is soon seen in her elevated SPLEEN
dor as a grand courtesan, not in a
hovel, but in magnificent gardens,
by the seashore, arrayed in finery
such as Sheba may have worn when
she tried to captivate Solomon A
young prince becomes enamored of
her. His succession to the throne
takes her with him and she be-
comes the empress of ByZantium.
Not satisfied with the splendor
Of the palace, however, she goes
into the streets incognito on love
affairs. On one of them, she meets
Andreas and falls in love with him.
He calls her Myrta and worships
her beauty He is one of the con
spirators against Justinian and
has his companions tortured or
killed but would save her lover.
At the Columbia.
Dennis Chabot is getting the big
laughs at the Columbia for the first
half of the week. He's French, a |
natural comedian, and combines a |
remarkable talent on the piano with |
a lot of hokum to keep the house |
wanting more. His partner, Mo- |
nette Fortine, adds materially to !
his stuff, but her greatest respon-
sibiity is displaying herself in a |

tre1nely abbreviated costumes.
