of the revolt in Mexico.

MARION DAVIES
RETURNS To
R|ALTO
Little Old New York" Brought
Back in Response TO Popu-
lar Demand.

A demand unprecedented In Wash
ington film annals is responsible
for the return today and the bal
ance of the week, at Moore's
RialtO, of Cosmopo1itan's great pic
turization of Little Old New York !"
starring Marion Davies.
Only a fortnight age this picture
ran two weeks at the Rialto, and
the attendance during the latter
part of the run indicated the pic
ture could stand up under another
week or two, but previous book
ings made necessary it's ousting.
Tom Moore accordingly introduced
another film only to find that public
demand for a longer run of little
Old New York" did not abate.
Now the demand has been so
imperative that the picture booked
for this entire week at the RiaIto
finds its run interrupted and
Little Old New York" substituted
Little Old New York" is story
of America and it's premier city
when both were at the swaddling
age. So graphically have the Cos
nopolitan studios turned back the
clock to that formative period fof
American history, that professional
critics and students Of history have
thrown caution to the winds and
heaped superlative praise on the
film adaptation and on the acting
Of Marion Davies.
George Wild's orchestra will re-
introduce the specially written score
which accompanied previous show
ings. The new bill begins today
and continues through Saturday
night.

When he arose after speeches by
Senator Wheeler, who spoke of the
problems confronting the party in
the Northwest, and Mrs. Antionette
Funk, he said that his position re-
minded him of the colored minister
who told his congregation that the
sermon consisted of three. parts, the
text, the subject matter. and the
"whooping it up" You've had the
text and the subject matter so I'm
going o "whoop it up he said. He
did it.
Bryan told his audience that he
though President Coolidge was as
high-minded, capable and sympa-
thetic as any man in the country,
and that he felt it his duty to ex-
press himself favorably of the Presi-
dent if not of the party. He also
spoke at length concerning the
merits of the soldier bonus and
flayed the methods used in spending
vast sums of Government revenue
for other less important things, while
the ex-soldierS were allowed nothing.

CHANGES ARE PLANNED
IN GRADE CURRICULUM

First steps toward changing the
grade school curriculum, made neces-
sary by the transfer of seventh and
eighth grades of many schools to the
Junior High schools, were taken by
the supervising principals meeting
at the Franklin School. A rearrange-
ment of the centers where manual
training is taught will be effected SO
that sixth grade pupils will be able
to take the work.
Another change that was adopted
was the proposed teaching OF ele-
mental home nursing in the grade
schools.
