another man, without the oilers con

My early life is perfectly charac-
terized by a single line fro Grays

The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1923-05-15
AT THE MOVIES
CAPITOL


At last a photodrama, constructed
on gigantic lines, that sings the
long delayed praises of the firemen
of this country. 1t has been a long
time coming, to be sure, but now
that it is here in lavish reality, fire
men and their hundreds of thous-
ands of friends are rejoicing be-
cause it shows in vivid and logical
sequences the degree Of service the
fireman gives to his employers-the
we'll known public.
The production is appropriately
titled "The Third Alarm" and is
scheduled . for its initial exhibition
at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
That the fireman is vital factor in
the welfare of any community Is
brought out with smashing dramatic
power in "The Third Alarm. it
shows not only how diligently he
serves but it also depicts in thrill
ing scenes the dangers he confronts,
the perils he faces uncomplainingiy
in the daily pursuit of his duties.
"The Third Alarm" is not propa-
ganda for the firemen. Keep this
point in mind. 1t is powerfully
dramatic story about fireman and
his little family, of his struggles
for happiness, of his failure under
the weight OF increasing years, of
his dismissal from the department
and of his comeback in conflagra-
ton so staggeringly big in It's
scope as to put other screen fires to
shame.
Then, too, there is delightful

Maj. Gen. Allen, who commanded

be for 1000 more.
He thinks maybe France has lost

He adds that nobody can tell how

The American Conference in
Chile has had to give up its effort
for an armament limitation agree

The scheme fell so fiat that the
Latin American members Of the
committee wouldn't even report. The
North American members had to do
so alone, in general terms deploring
war but saying nothing definite.
South American newspapers say
the stumbling block was the en-

United States to Brazil to strengthen
her navy.

has held that foreign ships mustn't

do so. They talk of reprisals, too.
