zation. Here is a real artist. Some
day he is going to get a great vehicle

1 believe that the director Of 1.-THE

sense of humor, because he pokes fun
at the story every time he gets a
chance. He seems to kid" the author.
Here is just about as merry a bur

Mickey Moore Wins
New HOnOrs on Screen

One Of George Barr McCutcheon's
stories of old world royalty has been
screened, and Is on view at Mister
Smiths all this week.
This story is ''Truxton King" The
action takes place in an imaginary
principality in southern Europe,
Graustark.
The story is one Of series that Nc
Cutcheon has written, centering
around this little country.
John Griffith has the leading role, as
King, an adventurous American, who
is searching for excitement in Grau-
stark. He finds plenty of it during his
stay there, and also completes little
romance.
Little Mickey Moore should get a
great deal Of credit for the way he
played the child king Of Graustark.
He made this a real and lovable char
acter, and made it seem natural for
his subjects to bow down to his di-
minutive highness.
"Truxton King" Is interesting, has
speedy action and a satisfactory love
story. And it has Mickey Moore.

indians in Canada
Seek Independence

That the Indians occupying the
Six Nations reserve in Canadian
territory, have imbibed the spirit
of independence along with
countraband spirits contained in
bottles, is indicated by recent
movements in mounted police
circles in the Dominion.
III Reports from the reserve have
of late referred frequently to the
fact that a faction of the Six Ma
tions, under the leadership OF
Levi General (Deskakeh) and
David Hill, have been agita,ine
the question of forming an indie
pendent state, with no subsection
to either the British or Canadian
governments.
Violations of the laws regula
ting the sale of liquor are report
ed to have been numerous, and
this, taken in connection with the
revolutionary spirit which appar,
emily has been growing Of late,
has brought forth Statement,
from Hon. Charles Steward that
the government intended to bring
law and order to the reserve, even
ifit meant the establishment of a
post of the mounties.
This declaration was shortly
followed by the departure from
Brantford, Ont, of Staff Sergeant
Bridger and eight troops of the
( Royal Canadian Mounted Police,
with full equipment. 1t was
stated that their deLination was
Ohsweken, capital of the Six Ma
tions reserve, where they were to
establish a post, with a view to
maintaining law and order among
the Indians. 4fts
This movement of the mounted
force would indicate that the Can
adian government was taking the
revolutionary talk more seriously
than was generally known and
speculation is rife as to whether
or not the near future will wit
ness a serious Indian outbreak in
an attempt to sever relations with
the Dominion government.
