 At the same time it was said infor- nation which the Department of Az riculture :c collecting on farm ten antry and other problems will be made available to the delegates.

 Relief of the farmers financial sit uation will be urged through a plan which it will be suggested that Con- gross enact for longtime credits com- modity financing, based upon ware house receipts, personal rural credits secured by proper insurance features, and the creation of machinery that will allow cooperative systems to obtain money directly.

Appealing to People
 Through the Posters

in the history of the country has there been so much Poster propaganda. An appeal is being made to the people of the country through the medium of bill-boards to impress upon them great trutha effecting political and social status of the country. The bill board and the advertising columns of the newspapers are no longer con- fined to sounding the praises of some new article tof wearing apparel, new model of automobile or the com m nplace necessities of every day life
 Acting upon the theory that the composite mind of the country can be influenced by trite phrases shout ed from billboards and new pages, the churches, the civic organization and even the government are resorting to this method of driving home admoni- tions that if needed will tend to re- lieve the country from the stress and strain under which it is operating This general tendency appears in the flaming poster, THE SPIRIT OF TODAY" in which we are advised that if you THINK PROSPERITY, TALK PROSPERITY, YOU WILL HAVE PROSPERITY" One of the notable posters of this character which has been displayed throughout the United States quotes the words of President Harding: 'These People of Wash ington and Lincoln are conquering the difficult problems of today no less worthily and with the faith and confi- dence which they bequeathed us. We are sure to find the ways to restored prosperity and our own need of hap piness." Among the numerous other posters which have been exhibited may be noted the following:
 YOU CAN HAVE PROSPERITY.
 If You Are Willing to Pay for It.
 In FAITH, WORK and
 COOPERATION.
 Another one reads:
 THIS IS OUR COUNTRY.
 Yours and Mine
 We Fought for It
 Now Let's
 WORK FOR IT
 anG still another carries this message:
 BUY, BUILD, WORK
 And Create a Job
 For Every Man
 PROSPERITY FOR ALL.
 Even the church is using the pastor to drive home scriptural truths and the advertising space of the newspa- pers is employed by the churches more generously than ever before. Numerous posters throughout the city admonish the passerby, YOU SHOULD GO TO CHURCH. A favor ite quotation is John 3:16-"For God so loved the World that he gave His only begotten Son that whosOever be- lieveth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life" Another favorite quotation is from John 3:9, Jesus said, Except man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God

''Trifling Women" at the Astor
a Grewsome but Well
Acted Story
By Harriette Cnderhill

A picture which Rex Ingram calls
"Trifing Women" but which we in
sist on calling "Black Orchids" it's
original title. opened at the Astor
Theater Monday night.
Mr.. Ingram wrote the story as well
as directed the picture, or perhaps we
should say not quite so we'll, for the
most interesting thing about an In
gram picture will always be the direc-
ton. Close on the heels of this comea
the fine performance of that ardent
young actor, Ramon Navarro, and the
gorgeous beauty of Barbara La Marr.
Navarro is real actor, for IN appear
ance and personality he is totally
different man from the one who
played Rupert in "The Prisoner Of
Zenda." AS every one has been
anxiously awaiting hfs appearance in
this picture it may be as we'll to finish
with him before going on to the other
high lights in the new picture.
Ramon Navarro seems to us to make
every. man who ever wore the hero's
laurels look to his wreath. He is sin
cere, extremely handsome, and his act
ing is facile and intelligent. In an.
pearance he is cross between Ro.
dolpho Valentino and Richard Bar.
felt that he spotted an embryonic star
when he spotted Navarro, for he is a
graceful and expert fencer. an athlete
and a splendid horseman. What more
can the camera ask?
The story Of the black orchids is a
grewsome one, but it has a happy
ending 1t is a story which Leon de-
Severac, French novelist, is reading
to his daughter, Jacqueline, because
she trlfies with the affections of her
ffiance. Just why he should read this
horrible tale to his young and only
mildly f1irtatious daughter and Offer
1T as a warning is something that wa
never shall be able to understand.
1t is palpably dragged in situation
so that the story may have hanpv
ending, but by the time Zareda. the
lady of the black orchids, dies with
her dead lover in her arms in a dun.
geon filled with crawling things, YOU
forget that there is such person az
Jacaueline, who is being taught les
son.
Barbara La Mari, more lovely even
than in "Thc Prisoner of Zenda," is
seen as Jacqueline, and again as
Zareda, the wicked woman. Navarro
is seen as Henri, the young lover Of
Jacqueline, and in the black orchid
part he is again the lover of Zareda
Needless to say he is excellent in both
roles.
Jacqueline displeases her father by
trifling with the affections of young
Henri, and he is pictured en- route for
the lake where he threatens to drawn
himself. Then her father tells her
about Zareda, the enchantress of Paris,
