ADJUSTMENTS

Marriage Morals" /. Lawrence
Weber and Bobby North An.
nounce Another Success by the
Gifted Director, Will Nigh
What promises to be super-pic-
ture decidedly out of the ordinary is
the booking of Marriage Morals"
by the Opera House today and to-
morrow.
The story in unusual in many re-
spects. First, the apparent hero
turns out to be something else again
while the apparent villain and the
author of all the leading woman's
troubles develops into pretty
decent sort of chap, after all.
Second, in a show down, the two
rivals develop very -movie-nke
traits. The rich man proves to be
a regular sort Of a fellow and not
at all the yellow devil his gold had
painted him-while the poor man,
when he acquires a modicum OF
wealth, shows up to be a very poor
specimen of a man.
Third and most unusual circum-
stance Of this unusual picture is the
fact that Will Nigh. its author
director, went to real life for his
story and made a real picture OF
real people, instead OF OOlnS the
usual thing of making rehash OF
some twice-told story, with a set OF
stereotyped characters. snow white
heroes fast black villains, etc.
Marriage Morals" tells story as
old as Time and as fresh as the last
edition of this evenings paper.
Marriage is it's theme-and that
effort to stay married its problem.
The cast of stellar calibre includes
Tom Moore Ann Forrest, Edmund
Breese, Florence Billings, Harry IT,
Morey, Shannon Day, Tom Lewis
John Goldsworthy, little Russell
Griffin, Charles Craig, Mickey Ben
nett and others.

COmm'r. Parsons
Pleads for More
Roads, Lafayette
National Park

Commissioner Willis E. Parsons of
the Maine department of inland
fisheries and game represented the
State at a hearing Wednesday at
Washington, d. c., before Secretary
of the Interior Work on the propo-
sition to abandon the road building
program for Lafayette National
Park, Mt. Desert Island.
Commissioner Parsons in his re-
marks at the hearing declared that
there was much move involved than
group of men. THE interests of
the people of the entire eastern
section of the United States are in
volved," he urged. To make the
park what it should be, to place it
upon an equality with other recrea-
ton spots of the National Park sys-
tenn. Lafayette National Park should
be made as accessible to all the peo-
pie as possible, was the Commits
sioners view.
Make it so that old folks, who
could never climb to the mountain
tops of the park. can get up there
and see the beauties of this park,
was the thought Mr.. Parsons eX-
pressed.
He told the Secretary that he had
been sent to the hearing by Gov
Baxter who was greatly interested
in the park, to express the views of
Maine. The people of that State. he
said, were very much interested in
this park. AS yet but few of them
had visited it, those few were en-
thusiastic. Others were planning to
go. The road which it was proposed
to abandon would add to the attrac-
tiyeneSs of the park, both to Maine
people and to those of other states
who visited it.
The hearing was conducted for
those who want the road building
program combined by Congressman
Nelson, who in a brilliant and peace
full opening address set forth the
reasons for carrying out this pro-
gram, as it's friends saw it.
