LASALLE.

What is Lies Greatest Question?
If we are to believe the text of
the famous novel, If Winter
Comes" we might be led TO believe
that the finding of love, and happi-
ness is the greatest question the
average human being is called upon
to solve.
Bankers preach that the solution
lies in the starting Of a savings ac-
count. Flaprers probably preach the
theory that the greatest question is
how short TO wear the skirts and
whether or not smoking in public
should be allowed.
All of which is merely another
way Of saying that the thing that
presents the greatest question to
some. might not be so regarded by
others
Robertson Cole has brought an
amazing answer 10 this tremendous
question in a new photoplay which
will have its first showing at the
LaSaue Sunday. It's the story of the
remarkable and altogether strange
manner in which a young girl work
ed out her theory Of happiness. and
