THEATERS
SHUTTLE ALONG"
COMING TO GRAND

The big record breaking musical
comedy shuttle Along" which ran in
New York City for over two consecu-
tive years viii be the attraction at
the Grand Theater, Sunday, July 20,
for the first time in Aberdeen.
The book is by Miller and Lyles
while score and lyrics are by Sissie
and Blake, and have a wealth of mel
ody and beauty that promises to rival
in popularity the most successful of
the musical hits of the day. There
are said to be more real delightful
song numbers in Shuttle Along" than
In any other production of It's kind In
existence, and the dance numbers are
so varied and numerous, and are given
such fast and furious pace, that you
hardly get time to think, and rave
for more.
Many prominent colored artists are
included in the cast, notably Emma
Jackson the well known prima-donna,
Nellie Brown, Billy Dewey, Edgar
Connors and the famous colored Val
entino, Theo. Mcdonald.

GARYISM IS SCORED
BY ALL CHURCHMEN

Churehmen of all creeds are united
in opposition to Judge Gary's letter
to the President that the 12-hour day
will be abolished when there Is a sur
plus of labor. DR.. Harrison In ad-
dressing the convention of the State
Federation of Labor at Bellingham
did not overlook the steel trusts in
human workday in his address,
Without exception the clergymen
and laity oppose the steel trusts ex-
cuse for perpetuating the long work
day. In not single instance can
the trust point to one friend among
the church men.
The church mems position is illus
trated by this statement by the de-
partment of social action, national
Catholic welfare council:
This statement Thy Judge Cary
assumes that even IL common labor
in the steel mills get good wages,
an eight-hour day and decent work
ing conditions, the steel industry will
still have to depend on new immi-
grants and negroes brought up from
the cotton fields to do its work.
ut also assumes that men working
an eight-hour day will work at no
higher efficiency than men working a
12-hour day, and that the steel com.
panies intend to get the same high
profits, store up the same surpluses
and not increase the efficiency Of the
management"
The manager of the Colorado Coal
and Iron company has already stated
to the churchmen that after four years
experience with the eight hour day,
the cost per ton OF steel has actually
decreased, decreased after granting a
raise in wages of 10 per cent at the
same time that hours were reduced
from II to 8. AS profit and produc-
ton seem to be Qary's only aim,
there seems to be no reasonable ex-
cuse why he should not gladly in
augurate the shorter workday.

Alfred Lunt and Mimi Palmeri, the
two new discoveries of the screen,
are coming to the Weir theater on
Friday and Saturday in Distinctive
Picture Corporations picture of Har-
old MacGrath's wonderful story OF
China and the South Seas, "The Rag
ged Edge" Alfred Lunt, known as
one Of the handsomest actors in Amer
lea, is heralded as a new idol of the
silver sheet. With him is the beau
tiful Mimi Palmeri, whose transition
from fashion model to movie stardom
is one of the most talked of events of
the year.
Harmon Weight directed the pic
ture from an adaptation by Forrest
Halsey. The story is that of two
young FOOLS" Their adventures in
the old city of Canton, China, and
subsequently in the South Sea islands
are as swiftly moving as any you
have ever seen. The two people
are runaways who are cast together;
one saves the other from "The Rag
ged Edge" and brings to herself the
joys of an everlasting love and de-
votion.
1.-The Ragged Edge" is the second
feature to be distributed by Goldwyn
under the new contract between Dis
tinctiye and that company.

This extraordinary bill is headed by
Anderson Young & Co, Americas pre-
mier 'travesty artists in an elab rate
production of Caesar of 1925" a spcc-
tacular novelty brimful of surprises
and ludicrous situations. a most en-
joyable bit of vaudeville showing the
humorous side of the popular pro-
auctions of the present day.

Sunday Picture.
You will also see Dustin Farnum In
the role of woman tanner in his
latest William Fox PRODUCTS THE
Buster" which comes to the Bijou
theater Sunday.
It is novel and fascinating part,
and the robust movie idol aequits
himself in fashion that will thrill
the most blase of pictures oers. '1The
Buster" tells the story of the rough,
handsome Westerner, who is called
upon to tame a beautiful, but temper
amental society belle from New York.
How he tackles the most difficult of
tasks and how he succeeds, goes to
the making of an interesting picture.
The direction of the photoplay was
in the hands of Colin Campbell, and
the adaptation of the story by William
Patterson White was made by Jack
Strumwasser. The photography re-
produces many picturesque nature
sets" that were "shot" in the Amer
lean Rockies.
The director has artistically brought
to the fore the infectious smile, the
splendid physique, and the manly ro-
business of Farnum and wrought them
all into the Western tale. Romance
and action are the keynotes of the
theme.
In support of the Fox star are Doris
Pawn, Grancis Mcdonald, Gilbert
Holmes and Lucille Hutton.
