rap at Secretary Weeks for his
failure to announce decision on
the Muscle Shoals proposition He
charged that the fertilizer trust was
flooding congress with propaganda
against the selling Of the govern

More than three hundred Chinese ap- pear in the big wedding celebration scenes, one of the features of "The Cup of Life" which shows at the Elm press theater for the last time tonight, and which is reported as one of the most gorgeous and kaleidoscopic Ori- tai spectacles ever filmed.
 In order to secure such an unusual number of Mongolians, it was neces- sary to comb every nook and cranny of the Chinese quarter of Los Angeles. In spite of the fact that the "cinema capital" boasts one of the largest Chi natoWns in America, difficulty is al ways experienced in mastering a large number of the quaint yellow people, for they are very reticent in appearing before the camera.
 A number of Orientals, unable to speak or understand but little English, were handled through interpreters, young Chinese-Amarican students, many of whom have made a careful study of motion picture production, and who are considered authorities in Chinese dress, architecture and GUS toms. Also two-reel comedy.
 One of the strongest novels written in the last twenty years was Lady Roses Daughter The author is Mrs. Humhhrey Ward, famous as one of the best of English novelists.
 That "Lady Roses Daughter" should have been screened with Elsie Ferguson as the star, will be hailed everywhere with pleasure Miss Ferguson plays three roles in the picture - grand mother, mother and daughter, the lat ter born out of wedlock Her portrayal of these leading characters of one of the most talked of books of the last two decades, is at once artistic and dramatically effective.
 Produced by Hugh Ford, a master director the star supported by a cast of exceptional merit, the photography of a high order of excellence, Lady Roses Daughter" is in every sense a remarkable picture production, which no Ferguson fan should ignore.
 It will be shown at the Empress Theater tomorrow.
