Proper Family Life Is Cure

 Francisco.
 San Francisco, April Tt is vain vorce by imposing conditions upon which it may be granted, for once it is allowed passions will overleap all restraints. It will find a way open to it, and the courts will be besieged daily with petitions for dissolutions. Experience in every country demon strates this lamentable fact.
 Some persons justify the law which grants divorce by saying that certain couples need the dissolution of the cannot live longer together the church tolerates separation from bed and board; but it never permits new nup- tiaIs
 What results in a family in which divorce has taken place? It has be- come a labyrinth in which blood is crossed with alien blood, life with life, name with name, a group Of diverse physiognomies, a heterogeneous null titude of half-brOtherS and half-SiSterS strangers and relatives at the same time And what of these children? What will happen to these creatures demarcated by diverse paternity and maternity? Worse Than Orphans
 They are worse than orphans, for they imbibe, with maternal love, ha- tred for their father or take lessons in Gursing their mother from their faith CTS lips. They are brought into the world, but they cannot be properly formed or educated in it.

EMPIRE


 Frank Mayo adds credit to the name which his illustrious grand ther first established on the Amert- can stage in 'sRavy Crockett" and other legitimate Successes, in his star ring performance in Tracked to Earth,'' at the Empire theatre.
 It is a Saturday Evening Post story written by William Neidig. It was filmed at Universal City as a Untver- sal special attraction under the dtrec- ton of William Worthington.
 Mayo has been a star with Univer- sal too many years to do badly in anything. And the main figure in Slipping Tongue" is that of an in triguing, fascinating fellow who in- cidentally happens to be honest. The natural result of putting a good star and a good part together follows.
 The story has to do with a slick tongued man of the West who could talk himself out of any trouble even horse-stealing when a typical Western girl is his captor.
 Virginia Valli contributes a charm ing impersonatton to the general ef- feet. Principal players who deserve commendation are Buck Corners, Duke Lee, Harold Goodwin, Arthur Mi1lett, Percy Challenger, Jack Wal ters and Lon Poff.
 Good photography of a hard sub ject-the barren wastes of great stretches of sand hills in the sand hills country-may be credited to Leland Lancaster, and the choice of excellent scenic spots for background to the director.

Iu1ns. That would be only to entomb thise who had no home. But the family would perish. Unity, heredity, tradition, beauty, harmony, strength and fecundity all would be lost.
 Too often hurried thinkers would check an evil by striking at the eff fects rather than the cause. The Southern Pacific did not stop the Salton Sea that way It built a dam, a work of tremendous labor, across the point where the Colorado River broke it's banks.
 The divorce laws should be stiff fened. the suits should be heard in one specially appointed court whose judge should be a man to inspire the confidence of the litigants, a man with enthusiasm in this line of work with sufficient tact and sympathy to be made confidant in these pitiable tales, to bring the wavering together.
 Awakening Must Come.'
 But the real reform will come in the body polite, the awakening must be from within. The normal and spiritual teachers of our country are raising the warning cry. Our women are taking it up in their homes, clubs, and societies. Some day the divorce problem will settle itself. Marriages will be contracted with such care that few will find their way to the courts to be dissolved by law.
 The true remedy lies in the moral teaching of the young and the exam pie of the elders. Girls brought up with a sense of wifely duties of the burdens that marriage entails, to feel the disgrace of being a, household or nament. Boys must be taught to re- spect the opposite sex, to consider marriage as binding for life, to weigh the future and be sure of being able to provide.
 Unhappy marriages will exist in the world so long as men take after Adam and women after Eve.

 'rI am a stamp collector and would like to know whether you would send me some stamps used in those islands, the Kansas City man wrote.

Poli Review

J.. Rufus Wallingford and G. Hor- ace Daw, characters known to all readers Of fiction, appeared on the screen before the, audience at Polls theatre last night, when "Get-Rich- Quick WallingfOrd," Paramount picture and @ Cosmopolitan produc- tion, was presented with excellent re- suits.
 "Get-Rich- Quick WalIingford" and "Blackie" DaH arrive in the town of Battlesburg, where "Blackie'' Daw, Wallingford'S advance agent, discov- CTS there is plenty of money awaiting investment. It is the ambition of the two confidence men to remove that money and themselves with it to other parts as soon as they have made their pile. How their fraudulent schemes turn out honest in spite of themselves, and the results of their careful plannings offer Lhany sur prises to the audience. There are many laughs.
 great skill, and "Blackie'' Daw is played by Norman Kerry with equal ability. Doris Kenyon, Billie Dove and Diana Allen have the other lead ing parts in @ large and wholly ade- Quate cast.
 Charles Chaplin in "Pay Day. needs no further comment than to say the picture was retained for the remain der of the week by popular demand. "1922,00 although not Leap Year, has brought far in advance the proper methods of proposal for the ladies to pursue when it arrives Ladies choice" will teach all the young la dies how to catch a man when Leap Year comes. It is a bit of musical comedy well rendered. Redmond & Wells in '"The Gyp," is quite the fun niest act shown here in a long time. Sankus & Silvers are exceptionally clever tumIblers. Mack & Lee in Milk and Melody are entertaining. Max Gier's Musical Ten is composed of a 50-50 combination, five men and five women, all very talented musicians Their act is a rare treat.
