Nor ma ,Talmadge at Trianon
 Monday In Her Latest Picture

Within the Law" which will be presented at the Trianon this week, makes even more secure the leader ship of Norma Talmadge as dra- matic star.
 The classic of the American stage, in Which Jane Cowl made her big gest hit. this Bayard vellier play is now classic of the silent drama. with Norma Talmadge winning fresh laurels. Love, romance and thrills combine to make it as fascipa; 4ng and as exciting as motion rsture can be. Much credit, of course, must go to the genius of the direc- tor, Frank Lloyd, and to the splen- did support of an unusually fine cast.
 Norma Talmadge, in the role of Mary Turner, girl railroaded to prison for theft she did not com- init. is a heart stirring figure. on the completion of her prison term she vows to "get square" with the store owner who was responsible for this miscarriage of justice, but de- termines to stay always "within the law" es~
 Thus does she become the head of an organized band of .blackmailers and homebreakers and entraps Dick Glider the son of the merchant. only to learn that she herself loves the young man.
 A stool pigeon endeavors to get Joe Carson, accomplice of Mary Turner, into frame-up to rob the Glider home. Though Mary refuses to go into the affair on the grounds that it is -"outside the law" Carson goes ahead with the plans.
 She follows to prevent the rob- bery. The son. Dick Glider. 10 hor- rified to see Mary. whom he had secretly married. with these crooks. The stool pigeon becomes terrified and is about to blow his whistle for the police when Carson shoots him.

GOOD MANNERS

When a lady and gentleman are at restaurant. where there is danc- ing, is it permissible for her to accept an invitation to dance with gentle man in another party?" asks young woman reader. And the answer Is No"
 Dancing at restaurant is not at all the same as f one were attending a formal dance or dancing in d friends home. In a restaurant you are the guest Of the young man. and unless you go there in a crowd you are indebted to him and owe all your dances and attention to him. lf Of course, a. group of young men and women are introduced this alters con dtions, but a young woman is not supposed to desert her escort simply because she recognizes another young man in the restaurant.
 The program or dance card of pun- lie halls and college class dances has undeniable advantages. A gitl can give as many dances as she chooses to whomsocver she chooses. Why the dance card is unheard of at private dances is hard to determine, except that fashionable society does not care to take it's pleasure on schedule
 When man standing in the door way sees passing young woman with whom ne wants to dance he steps forward and lays his hand on the shoulder of her partner, who pc litely relinquishes his place in favor of the newcomer. But after she has danced once around the room the frs partner may cut in againlif hesMishes. This seemingly far from polite "cut- ting in" Is considered correct behavior in the best society in Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Chicago.
 If young girl and her partner prefer to sit dance out. however, and are talking quietly together. no man of refinement will try to "cut in."

EAST LAKE OPENS WEDNESDAY WITH LABOR IN CHARGE
"First Look Week" To Start Ball Rolling At Resort
 Here

East Lake Park is about to spring into life for the spring season and to become an animated thing from now until September, where the merry throngs will gather and marvel over the transformation East Lake park you should see it. First Look Week" begins Wednesday. May 2. Wednesday night organized labor will have it's inning.
 Sponsored by the Allied Trades Council, J. W. Kelly. national organ izer for Mexico is coming to Bir- mingham with message as to what has been accomplished for the cause in the former hot-bed of revolution ists. Congressman George Huddle- ston has agreed to talk and Commis- sioner William Harrison will intro duce Mir. Kelly.
 The layman doesn't really realize what has been accomplished in the way of rebuilding East Lake park. Take for intance little comparison. Last year four rides graced the park. and while they were all meritorious. they were not enough to accommo- date the crowds. This year IA rides have been erected, the feature ot which is the roller-coaster. This structure has been an entire winter in the making. Also, it's as sturdy and safe as the old family rocker at home, 1t is claimed.
 With specially built playground for the kiddies and d worker to en- certain them and supervise them, with the entire park beautified by landscape gardener who knew hls business, with the bathing beach re- modelled and showers installed, to say nothing of the beauty parlor and electric ir-dryers for feminine bathers. with the most elaborate and convenient picnic grounds in the entire district; yes, with everything that goes to make /p a modern amusement resort, i. is small wonder that those at the helm are planning to double any previous attendance record this year.
 The grand, formal opening is set for Wednesday, May 2.

---------@7----=---sSs HOW TO SELECT VEAL

Veal is not so generally used by housewives as the other meats both because it is not so easily digested as other meats and is less nutritious than lamb, mutton or beef. However. veal has a delicate flavor and if prop erly prepared makes a savory meat course. It is in season now, being at it's best from April to July.
 The first requisite to a good veal dish is the selection. If the flesh is white do not take it. as this indicates the meat is unwholesome. The flesh of veal should be light pink and the fat white. It requires longer cook ing than other meats, also more sea- soning. The choice portions of veal are the loin, filet and best end of the neck
