"Our Leading Citizen" nj the
RivoIi and "My Wild Irish
Rose" at the Strand
By Harrictte Undchill

"Our Leading Citizen" may be classod
as one Of our leading photo-plays. II
is Al the Rivoli this week and is mostly
tho work Of George Adc. The picture
delighted us because Of the gently
satirical mood in which il has been
produced, and evidently Mr. AIDE per-
suaded everybody 10 keep their hands
OF after he had done his work. IL Is
easy 10 spoil a story like that. George
Ade wrote the original story and he
and Waldemar Young made the scenario;
Alfred Green directed the picture,
and they seem % have left out every
thing which We do not like in pictures,
though we do not Aatter ourself that
that was their sole purpose in doing
the thing just ns they have done H..

without any warming, she mas become
chic, slender. vivacious. charming ana
beautifully gowncd. Her hair - ar
ranged more becomingly. she seinulates
and every thing she does is interesting.
Never have we encountered so complete

So declared Judge Hayne F. Rice,

Berlin Taxes Electric
Lights to Aid City's Poor

Berlin, Oct. s.--Berlin's bright
lights are to be used as source Of
revenue to provide money to tide the
city's poor over the winter. Assist
ance for the homes where only can
dies and oil lamps are burned will
come from the users Of electricity
and gas. The prices of these two
commodities are to be raised suffi-
GENTLY to provide a found of 200,-
100000 marks. Eighty millions OF
this sum will be used for the care Of

Officials of the association stated
last night that Mr.. Pope was the
only member out of the over 11,0O0
members of the association that 1t
has been forced to bring legal pro-
ceedings against. Not another allie
cation of violation of the contract has
been foced to bring legal proceedings
against. Not another allegation OF
violation of the contract has becn
made, it was said.
Under the provisions of the special
act passed at the 1921 session of the
general assembly any member of the
association violating the contract is
liable to a penalty of five cents a
pound on all cotton sold outside of
the association.
"The great majority Of the farmers
who signed the contract did so be.

Harry G.. Hammer, president and gen.

night "There is practically a unanl'

Cuba Promises Better
Treatment for Laborers

Havana, Cuba, Oct. Better
treatment for the thousands of sea-
sonal Spanish workers in Cuban cane
fields is being sought by the Spanish
minister, Alfredo de Mariategui, In
negotiations he is carrying on with
the Department of Agriculture, Com
merce and Labor.
Secretary Pedro Betancourt has
promised every assistance int remedy
ing conditions complained of by the
minister, who asserted that thou.
sands of his poor country1nen were
not paid for their labor last year and
had to appeal to charity for food and
transportation back to europe. In
lesser degree, he added, this has
happened again at the close Of the
1922 sugar cane harvest.
