TO PUSH BILL FOR
NEW PIKE TO SHORE

The Black Horse Boulevard Assoc
iation and the business men along
the pike, assisted by delegations
from Camden Atlantic and Glouces-
ter Counties, are ready to push their
bill at the session of the state legis-
lature which opens next month, to
have the pike added to the state
highways and opened as new bou-
levard to Atlantic City and other
seashore resorts.
The bill will be in charge of the
three assemblymen and Senator
Woodruff. 1t wills be introduced
early in the session and it is the be-
lief of the sponsor that it will be
passed. Another route to the sea-
shore is needed because of the in
creased traffic, and when the new
Delaware river bridge is completed
the traffic will be still heavier
The Glassboro pike route will all
be paved by next summer, but with
this route in good shape it is the
claim that the extra route will be
needed. Atlantic county board of
freeholders appointed committee to
work for the Black Horse pike, and
the representatives of the three coun-
les will meet in Trenton next week
to organize for the movement.

Thief Of Bagdad' Now Playing Twice Daily
 At Jefferson

Douglas Fairbanks glorious fantasy of the Arabian Nights, ''The Thief of Bagdad," now playing at the Jefferson theater. Two showings are being given daily, at ? 80 and S 30 D. m. Some in teresting facts regarding the making of this extraordinary pictures, are:
 The first secene was made July D, 1923 and the last scene January 26. 1924. Previous to actual shooting eighth months were. spent in research and planning. Over 10000 feet of film, the equivalent of four ordinary five-reel pictures, was used in making tests of makeup and costume.
 The Bagdad set occupied about six acres of space; the bazar set alone covered over two acres with a solid con- crete floor four inches thick. This was enameled black and while being used was re-enameled several times a week. Being laid in so remote a period and environment it was impossible to ob- tain props of costumes of the proper character without making them to order. Even the shoes for the thousands of extras were made to order. Some of the propos were imported from the Orient, some reproduced from museum originals and some from old paintings.

 Some laugh-provoking features are supplied for this weekend in the com edy act, "IIer Father" by Billy DuVal and Merle Symonds, as well as by Charles F.

 The title role of '"The Silent Accuser is played by Peter the Great, famous police dog, who is making his screen debut and thus leaps into immediate popularity. A large cast is headed by Eleanor Boardman, Raymond Mckee and Earl Metcalfe. Although the main interest centers on the dog, the human actors and the exciting story also grip the interest.
 At a field meet for California police dogs held recently at Pasadena, Peter the Great, the dog star, won n silver cup presented by Mrs. Elliott Dexter fol being the best trained dog in all around sports.

D'AUGERS BUST
 UNDER QUESTION Attorney General Reveals Probe
 Of $1O,OOO Art Fund

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Authenticity of mcrble bust of George Washington, believed to have been a sculpture by David D'Angcrs. which recently was sold for about $10,c00 after being found in q junk yard, is questioned as re- suit of an investigation, United States Attorney Stone revealed yesterday.
 The bust, which junk dealer had bought for $25 and had let lie in his vera for 10 years, was sold through thn Anderson galleries after an artist had discovered it.
 Mitchell Kennerley, president of the galleries, made the sale to Henry E. Huntington of San Marine, Cal. Mir. Kennerley then announced it had been identified by several artists as a sculp- ture presented the United States by France and that it had stood in the congressional library at Washington un- til the fire of 1851.
 Attorney General Stone stated that the investigation which has been made by the architect of the capitol and the librarian of congress fails to develop any evidence that such bust ever was presented to the United States or was ever in the library of congress-"

MAMMOTH PIPE
 ORGAN GETTING
 FINAL TOUCHES
Temple Instrument Will Be Ready For Playing
 In Two Weeks
Within two weeks the mammoth new

Within two weeks the mammoth new
 ,e organ, which is being installed M
 Temple theater will be ready for
 aying, according to announcement Jade Thursday. The theater is to reopen soon under an entire change Of management and the great organ is ex- peeted to add immeasurably to the pleasure of patrons. Experts are now engaged in the final process of tuning the organ pipes and completing details for the formal opening and presenta- tion of the instrument to the enjoyment of the Birmingham public.
 The Moller-Temple organ is, with the exception of two other organs, the larg- est instrument in the United States. It carries over 5000 pipes, which will be in constant use, this being almost double the number of pipes used in the famous Capitol pipe organ in the Capi- tol theater, New York. It contains pipes from three to thirty feet in height Some of them large enough for man to stand in. The Temple organ has four manual console containing miles and miles of copper wires, rubber tubing and other accessories used in organs of this size and build.
 Answering n letter from the Masonic
 
 company, builders of the magnificent or gan, MT. Moller replied that they were hot trying to see how early they could get the organ completed, but were try ing to see how good they could install and complete it.
 The experts who are installing 1t are men who have served years in the larg- est organ works in the world and who, besides knowing every piece of me chanism which their organs contain, are musicians in the true sense of the word and know to the minutest sound when the huge pipes are properly pitched and tuned. The famous Moller organ factory perhaps has the finest and most efficient force of musical ex- perts of any factory in the entire world and they are constantly in touch witt every part of the huge factory. which manufacturers the Moller organ.
 When the Temple theatef reopens, under the new management, there will be highly efficient force of employees. Many changes will be made, including new seating arrangement and the n- stallation of aisle lights of the latest types and models.
