FRANK MAYO AT THE PALACE LAST TIME TONIGHT

Frank Mayo adds credit to the name which his illustrious grand father first established on the Ameri- can stage in 'Davy Crockett" and other legitimate successes, in his starring performance in Tracked to Earth" in the Palace Theatre for the last time tonight.
 It is a Saturday Evening Post story written by William Neidig. It was filmed at Universal City as a Universal Special Attraction under the direction of William Worthington.
 Mayo has been a star with Univer- sal too many years to do badly in anything. And the main figure in Slipper 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 slick tongued man of the West who could talk himself out of any trouble-even horse-stealing when a typical West ern girl is his captor.
 Virginia Valli contributes charm ing impersonation to the general ef- feet. Principal players who de- commendation are Buck B Connors. Duke Lee, Harold Goodwin, Arthur Millett, Percy Challenger, Jack Wal ters and Lon Poff.
 Good photography of 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.

"A DANGEROUS PASTlME" LAST TIME COLISEUM

Lew Cody's latest production. "A Dangerous Pastime,v which will bs seen at the Coliseum for the last time tonight, is an entirely different story and an absolutely new char acterization than anything he has heretofore appeared in.
 Ever since Lew Cody has had his could dictate as to the type Of photoplay in which he was to ap pear, he has adapted the policy oi never adhering entirely to one line of parts, not only because he be lieves that the public likes variety but because he believes the differ ent lines of characters tend to in crease his ability as an artist.

which had substantial rise to their

for the markets underlying strength
and made itself felt in the second
hour, when realizing sales showed
signs Of slackening.
BY that time Baldwin was taken In

a beneficial effect on the entire list.
Motor stocks were quick to respond,
buying being based on predictions
that next years business by these

steel shares continued at high pitch,
due to reports from Chicago Of an
increase in the price Of pig iron.

announcement of an increase in the

Reserve Bank Condition.


The weekly Federal Reserve state
ment issued late yesterday shows
that last week was one Of contrac.
ton. As a result of increased gold
holdings and of smaller deposit and
note liabilities the ratio was up both
in the system as a whole and in the
local institution. The ratio shown
in the combined statement rose is
points to TIL per cent, while that
of the New York bank was up 5.5
points, taking the figure to S5.2 per
cent.
There was somewhat less gold III
the vaults of the banks, but addi-
tons to the metal held by the board
In the settlement fund more than Off
set such decline, with the result that
total holdings of the system rose by
about $500, 900, to $3,212, 1871 900.
The local institution made large
gains through the settlement fund,
largely, it is thought as result of
nationwide sale by New York houses
of certain bond issues within receu,
weeks. The total holdings of the
bank rose over $50,000,000 to $751;
O00, 200.
There was g. shrinkage Of about
$41 900, 600 in the deposits at the
twelve banks and an accompanying
decline of about equal proportions in
outstanding notes, SO that the re-
spective figures stood at $1,941, 00O,-
goo and $2,223, 900, 900 at the close
of the week. TotaIl bills on hand
declined by about $4,000, 900. At
the New York bank there was drop
in deposits and circulation respective
~ Of $6,000,000 and $4,000, 900 de-
posits at the close of the week being
$717 900, 900 and circulation SAB, 0O0,-

to 100000, a decline during the
week of about $30,000.000. This APP

SOME ABORTIVE CRITICISM

Critics of the men and women who have been leading the fight for the elimination of the convict lease sys- tenn in Alabama are not furthering their cause by their words. They will find abortive any attempt to side track the issue by questioning the mo- tives of those who are actively en- gagged in seeking riddance of this great evil. The anti-lease movement is not new. It has been a statewide cam paign for more than ten years, having had in all that time support of men and women in all walks of life. For mer legislatures investigated the op- erations of the system, pronounced it inhumane and untenable, and on their report the legislature declared that it should be abolished last January.
 The present activities of. men and women for elimination ofvthe lease system are a continuation of an un- broken application of public sentiment of ten years standing, and in keeping with the nationwide demand for final and complete abandonment of the use of convicts for private profit in what soever form it be attempted, and re- gardless of safeguards against cruelty and injustice which may be under taken. Criticism of the earnest men and women engaged in this campaign is avoidance of the issue, and is cal culated only to muddy the waters. But the waters cannot be muddied to the extent of obscuring the will of the peo- pie of Alabama in demanding that this stigma be wiped out.

TO AVERT COAL SHORTAGE

The coal-mining problem will be solved when and only when ample provision is made for storage of coal during the dull season so that all do not rush for supply at the same time during the season whom the coal must be had for immediate consumption. The federal coal commission is direct ing it's special attention to this phase of the problem and the Federal Amer ican Engineering Societies have more than hundred committees making study of storage in different coal fields. One for Alabama headed by Erskine Ramsey, one of the ablest mining engineers of the South, and embracing in its personnel other skilled and experienced engineers, has under taken a coal-storage survey of the Alabama field. They are competent to evolve much light on the subject and to distinctly aid in suggestion that will bring about more coal storage and minimize the customary annual scram- ble.
 In this connection it is noted that the railroads object to the recent as signed car order of the Interstate Commerce Commission which ruled that the carriers must not prefer mines affording them fuel over mines not furnishing them coal in the mat ter of distribution. The carriers have complained that this ruling will force them to pile much more coal than they do now; to keep larger stocks on hand. That is precisely what the country wants the carriers to do and what in their wisdom wrought by ex- perience the carriers are now doing as never before. The rail carriers are the largest coal users and ought to do the maximum of storage for their own sake as we'll as that of the public. If the railroads do not pile coal in dull seasons the entire scheme of re- lief will fall to the ground. With the railroads out of the way early in the fall, there will be no danger of coal famines.

CHILDHOOD DANGERS


 Dr. Bowling warns parents not to let their children play with strange animals or with household weather. Rabies is more preva- lent among dogs during the hot season.
 The thought of a mad dog" ter rifles the mother of little children It is a very real and vivid danger that the mother can easily visual ize. Beause she does visualize 1t she observes the warning and pro- tects her children as she can.
 It is a pity that other dangers to children equally real are not more easily visualized. Mothers have been warned against these dangers many times. but since they are not apparent they are overlooked or ignored. Their very commences causes them to be tolerated, for Familiarity breeds contempt"
 Some of these same mothers who accept the mad-dog warning so seriously and take precautions against hydrophobia daily shut their eyes to more common dan gers to their children. They are careful about flies in the house; they are negligent about steriliz- ing the baby's bottle; they buy milk from a dairy without taking the trouble to find out whether or not the dairy has complied with the health laws, and they let their children play in automobile crowded streets. Disease, tuber- culosis from milk infection. crip- pied children and dead ones are the natural results.
