NELLIE" MAKES
HIT AT VALLEY

Last night the program at the
Valley theater featured "Nellie,
the Beautiful Cloak Model in
which Claire Windsor is starred.
This film is an adaptation of an
old time melodrama by Owen Da-
Wis which won so much acclaim
many years ago. 1t has many thrill
ing episodes including a fire, fist
fight, racing elevated train, which
threatens to run over the heroine,
and many other thrills equally ex-
citing.
Miss Windsor, noted for her
beauty who has the role of Nellie
carries the part we'll and really
plays the entire part. even when
the heroine is t.ed on the tracks and
awaits death from the onrushing
train.
Others in the east who portray
their roles pleasingly are Mae
Busch, Lew Sody, Hobart Bosworth,
Raymond Griffith and others. The
picture will be shown again tonight

Last Friday the Junior College
student body held elections for the
coming year. The main offices are
filled at the end of the school term,
and the others are elected or ap-
pointed at the first of the next

chosen student body president and
Margaret Julian, vice president. Two
executive board members were also
elected, Lucille Bathrick and Jose

Several less important positions
have been left vacant, in order that
they may be filled by the coming

tarv and treasurer, athletic mana
ger, member to the executive
board, and several places on the
annual staff. The associate editor

vanced to editor. This arrangement
keeps the control of the annual in
the more experienced upper class

Local Barber
Puts In Shop
For the Women

The growing popularity of bobbed
hair, i'll women S circles, and result
ing demand upon BARRIERS to acco-
modate feminine patronage, has led
James F. Davis, long Il leading
barber of this city, to make exten-
sive additions to his shop to take
care of this class of trade.
Tomorrow Davis Beauty Shop,
will be opened for the benefit of
the women of FL Centre and vicini-
", and is certain to fill a long felt
want.
Heretofore, many women have
hesitated to visit barber shops to
have their hair cared for, con
sidering it place for the men
folks. The latter, too, have resent
ed the intrusion by the women.
The views of both have been con
sidered by Mr.. Davis, the Beauty
shop being separated from the
barber shop. Entrance to the form
er is through the Vrecland Photo
shop, next door to the barber shop.

convenience of patrons.
Women may visit the Beauty
Shop and depart without coming in
contact with the men patrons of
the barber shop.
The Beauty shop has been fitted
up with four sanitary BARRIERS
chairs and four operators will be
on hand to take care of the needs
of patrons. These include two male
BARRIERS, expert in bobbing and trim
ming hair. Miss McGlashan and
Mrs. Bryan, experienced marcellers,
will have charge of this department,
both being experts in their line.
In addition to taking care of all
beauty requirements, the Beauty
Shop will carry a full line of toilet
requisites, including cosmetics, IA
cial creams and soaps, and necessi-
ties for the woman who takes pride
IN her appearance.
Appointments can be made by
telephone by calling 227 and these
will be kept punctually.
A cordial invitation is extended
to the women of EI Centre and
