"SNIFFLES" BREAKS OUT IN ANCHORAGE; KIDS
 BECOME SLECTHS

SiZeaDle number or Anchorage school children have the "sniffles, '" today. but there's reason for it.
 Announcement of Deputy Marshal Harry Staser yesterday that he would pay s5 to children of school age who report the existence of stills in Anchorage has already pro- duced results. with precincts to Lear from. The only string attach ed to MT. Staser's offer is that the investigation by officers of his office proves that the place reported ac- tually has a moonshine still in 1t.
 Mir Staser has promised not to di- vuige the names of his juvenile aS- sistants.
 One hot tip" already has been re- ceived from school student-and q girl at that-and Marshal Stasesr expects real results.
 We're going to drive the moon sinners into the hills" said the dep uty this afternoon. "I think we've got them on the run righ, now
 The above article was printed in The Anchorage Times recently and
 is worthy of few comments.
 The extent of some of our public officials maniacal tendencies and fanatical ideas are set forth by the actions of this deputy marshal, men toned in the ;lbive artice. evidently realizing his own inability to cove with a problem confronting his of flee, this brave officer Of tne law at tempts and it seems that he was sue cessful in drawing to his aid some of the SCHOOL CHILDREN.
 Is it not a pitiable occurrence when a man wearing the badge of United States Deputy Marshal has to call for the assistance of school children to assist him in making ar rests? Just because the particular offense of moonshnng is the cause of this officers attempting to enlist the aid of the school children. has no bearing on the case whatsoever There is term applied to people who turn informer in such cases tha, one of these innocent school children make the mistake Of needing this public officials invitation to make $500 in the way he desires them to, and should the name become known, would the name STOOL PIGEON stay with the child the remainder of it's life?
 We do not sanction the name Stool Pigeon, but that fact does not retard the public from applying the name. Such men as this are either at tempting to advance their own per sonal aspirations at the cost of young America or through ignorance are perpetrating crime that shoul1 be nipped in the bud. We al! rc- member what was thought of the child al school who was considered a "Tattle Tale" or in other words. one who would be continually telling the teacher something of no conse- quence that occurred on the play ground.
 The proposition offered by this of- ficer makes the blood boil in the veins of a real, red-blooded herman. These are the tactics of a village Constable which very seldom occur except in the movies. Anchorage has our sympathy. if that is the only resort to the enforcement of law in that noble city Anyone who could see the length of nose ahead of them would realize serious complied tions arising from such an attempt as the above advocated by Staser. in practically no time after such an attempt would be started.

BECKY SHARP R0LE UNUSUAL CREATION
"vanity Fair" Heroine Out side Popular Pale; Film To
 Be At lOeW'S

Thackeray called his great story Vanity Fair" a novel without a hero, and those who will see the Goldwyn picturization of this great | novel at Loew's Bijou, in addition to the regular vaudeville bill, on Mon | day, Tuesday and Wednesday, Au- gust 20-21-22, will also discover a new kind of a heroine.
 For Becky Sharp, one of the most interesting characters in all litera- ture, is far from the popular con- ception of heroine. She is schem- ing little person who practices her wiles without scruples.
 Mabel Ballin, who is starring in Hugo Ballin's production of the Thackeray classic, made at the Gold ideas about Becky, whom she calls ''an adventures with sense of humor." She also believes that audi ences will recognize the humanness of Becky's inhumanness and be be- guilcd thereby.
 There is not the slightest doubt that Becky was interruptions" says Miss Ballin. Mrs. Fiske, who played Becky Sharp on the stage for long time, and afterwards, about II years ago, made a picture from the story is said to have insisted that Becky was more sinned against than sin" ming. l wonder if her opinion was not the actress's desire, perhaps sub consciously, to play for sympathy.
 "The incest thing about Becky and her greatest asset Is her lack of nor bidity She is buoyant. She enjoys the game of living. Her quest for life is more wholesome than that of many so-called good people. To all appearances, helpless and gentle, her will and scheming are not apparent, and she throws the people she comes in contact with completely off their guard Certainly, Becky defies all precedents for heroines."

BRASS" NOW AT CAPITOL THEATRE
Opens Today For Two Days Run-FiIm Of Marriage
 And Divorce

Marriage, as practiced nowadays by the cynical and careless, gets an aW- ful body blow in Brass" a powerful Warner Brothers classic of the screen adapted from the novel of Charles G. Norris, which opens today at the Capitol Theatre, for two-day run with Monte Blue and Marie Provost in the featured roles.
 Nearly everybody knows the story, from the popularity it enjoyed as a "best seller" Phillip and Marjorie Baldwin, young and married, sud denly wake up to find themselves ut ter strangers. A mother-in-law par tially accounts for their distance, but especially does Marjorie's weakness for cabarets and good times. After a quarrel she leaves him forever, and Philip picks out the scattered threads of his life as best he can. Two wmen come into his life, the while Marjorie divorces him and re- marries. The ending is led up to in masterly fashion, with thrilling cll- maxes that surprise and fasclnate.
 Brass" formerly played the Al cazar Theatre here for 30 cents ad- mission, but will be shown here We'd nesday and Thursday at the regular admission prices charged by the Capitol.
