"The Invisible Divorce" Probes Mari
tai Secrets That Are Seldom

tai Secrets mat Are oeioom
Known
A stab into those dark chapters of
marital unhappiness that never are
probed by the light of publicity is
revealed in The Invisible Divorce,
a National Picture which is at the
Johnson Opera House today.
1t is one of the most absorbing
photodramas shown here in months,
departing from the beaten path and
sounding secrets that men and wom-
en- have kept strictly to themselves
for ages. Instead of one triangle
there are two; and one of the trl-
angles touch a wife and husband
leaving another husband and wife,
respectively surveying the blasted
wreck of their lives. Each knew that
the one they had promised to love
and keep was unfaithful. yet neither
was willing to undergo the inevitable
publicity of divorce. So the two
triangles formed parallelogram OF
unrest and sadness that required the
sunshine of love to pierce.
The climax is magnificently hand
led. Walter McGrail, Leatrice JOY.
Grace Darmond and Walter Miller
have never appeared on the screen
to better advantage.-Adv.

 ployed by the United States Forest Service as clerk and ranger under F. S. Breen, who was forest supervisor in those days, and who did and does and always will swear by Joe. His promotion comes as a recognition of his ability and faithful service to the 1 bank and will be welcome news to his many friends in Flagstaff and throughout the state. And when the term friends" is used it means that in every sense, for Joe bulks big in the hearts of many people. The new cashier, MT. Haight, has been in the banks service for about a year, coming here from Los Angeles, where he held responsible position with the Federal Reserve Bank of that city. His former home was in St. Louis, in which city he had been connected with the Mississippi Valley Trust company for about eighteen, years in various capacities, holding the position of assistant secretary at the time he resigned to come west. He is an experienced banker and the knowledge gained in his previous posi-  tions will undoubtedly prove of much value both to the bank and to the communities which it serves. Both MT. and Mrs. Haight have made many friends during their residence in Flagstaff, who will be glad to hear of his election.
