ALICE LAKE FEATURED.

A fascinating story of treasure is that unfolded in "The Golden Gift," " Alice Lakes latest starring picture for Metro, which will be shown at the White Grand, Tuesday, matinee and night. But the treasure is not that usually associated in the public mind with golden gifts; it is treas ure far more precious, about which is woven a stirring story of love and adventure.
 It is the story of an opera singer who with a young child to support finds herself thrown upon her own resources through the desertion of her husband She goes to a border dance hall and, leaving the child to be taken care of at the old Mission, be- comes famous opera singer. At the height of her success she discovers that the man she loves has become a guardian to her child and she finds the treasure she seeks is really a golden gift.
 The picture gives Alice Lake a chance to display again her wonder full dancing ability, and this star, who won fame for herself by her artistic dances before going to the screen, takes full advantage of it in her latest picture.

SLIGHTLY CREDIT
 NEW TAYLOR CLUE
lBv the Associated PressN

Los Angeles, March 6.-Further in vestigation of the latest confession of William Desmond Taylor, contained in a letter from an unnamed Con- necticut city, was planned today by officials assigned to the case.
 In the confessional letter, the slay- CT is said to describe himself as an avenged husband,' who planned the murder with his wife and succeeded in killing the film director without being detected. Taylor, the letter said, once had an offair with the slayer's wife and later scorned her, which supplies the motive for the murder pact. The night of February l, when Taylor left his bungalow and stepped to the curb with Mabel Nor mand, the wife entered the house and unlocked the back door through which her husband entered. Both faced Taylor when he returned.
 Police officials say they are inclin- ed to give some credence to the al- legged confession.

IDEAL SHOWS COMIC
 FILM BY MARK TWAIN

Mark Twain's masterpiece, "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" has been made into a motion picture by William Fox on scale worthy of the subject. Issued as a special production, it will be exhibit ed at the Ideal theatre today, Tues day and Wednesday.
 Known to the multitude of Mark Twain lovers as "The Yankee" this story IS regarded not only as a great classic of American humor, but also as forceful satire directed against those who sigh for the good old times" Mark Twain set out to show that the world we live in is the best of all possible worlds, and the time we live in is the best of all possible times.
 This he did by taking a typical young American, bright as a new penny, filled with smart, up-to-date ideas, and setting him down in a medieval court, where he could judge for himself whether the knights of old were more courageous than the men of today, and whether life as whole was more comfortable then than now.
 The result is exquisite fantasy and delicious fooling, with a sharp ly drawn conclusion. "The Yankee" is rated high among Mark Twain's books. Certainly it IS one of the fun niest.
 The picture was directed by Em- melt J. Flynn, noted for his skill in fidelity to detail. The Yankee is play ed by Harry C. Myers, a well-known licht comedian.

The Ku KIpx Klan is avowedly a
protestant organization. As such it
is anathema to the Catholic church.
Because Of the regalia worn by the
Khan, it is perfectly possible for men
who are not Klansmen, to wear a.
similar regalia, and thus thrust upon
the Khan the blame for unlawful acts
done by hooded men.
Without full and complete evidence
ii is not possible intelligently to dis
euss the claim made that the Klan
has interfered with or dominated
the sovereign State Of Louisiana. No
such evidence is being presented.
Various unlawful acts have at times
been done by hooded men. Opponents
Of the Khan charge that all such acts
are done by Ku Klux Klansmen. The
Khan denies that such acts are done by
authority and consent OF the order
Defenders of the Khan say that it is
no more reasonable to say that all
crimes committed by men who wear
a white hood and mask are committed
by Klansmen, than It is to charge that
all thefts committed by masked burg
lars are the work Of society gentlemen
who wear masks at masked ball.
Theer is much discussion, pro and
con, going on in Congress regarding
the charges and the countercharges
about the Klan. The wise heads III
Congress holding the radical element
in check, agree that if the Khan does
that which is un-American and un-
lwaful, the Khan should, and will be
punished. But until it is proved that
un.American and unlawful acts done
in the regaiia Of the Khan are in fact,
done by the Khan, the Klan deserves
the same treatment accorded any &C
cused under our system Of juris-
prudence; it Is innocent until proved
guilty. All the thunderings Of Jesuit
cal mouthings, all the priestlv protests,
and ali the intolerant fanaticism Of the
church which is its enemy, can not
make It otherwise. II is evidence, not
opinion, which must indict, and a court
Of law, not priestly accommodation
which must convict.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

WHEN the shades Of evening gather
w And the Christmas time is here,
And you 60 home from your labor
To enjoy the Christmas cheer
When the Christmas tree is lighted
And the children gather round,
There Is one thing must be present
II the greatest Joy Is found.
There must be inner conscience
Telling you with truthful voice
That you've done something for someone
That will help that one rejoice
Some poor stranger, widow. orphan,
Someone that you did not owe.
All. the gift need not be costly
To relieve another's woe.
And the greatest gift at Christmas
That person e'er received
Was to know that through his efforts
Someone's suffering was relieved:
For the Master, on whose birthday
All the Christmas gifts are given,
VIII see that act and send to him
A Christmas gift from heaven.
