227 Spring Suits
SIS

Once upon time, before the days of
smoke barrages and camouflage, SIS bought
mighty good suit. The suits in this
group are reminiscent ofthose days. Broken
lots of SIS to $50 suits marked at one low
price because we want to sell them quickly,
and because we know that there are two
thousand, much less two hundred men, who
will gladly pay SIS for a good suit that
will give them service the year round.

THE COVERED WAGON
A MOVIE MASTERPIECE

One of the masterpieces OF motion
picture land is The Covered Wagon, A"
which will come to the Colonial and
Rialto theaters for a weeks run be-
ginning October 13. Delta is exteme-
ly fortunate to have this picture, ac-
knowledged as one of the greatest Of
all time. come to the city. People go
for miles to see this picture wherever
it is shown and are praising it in
every way.
James Cruze, known as one OF the
leading motion picture directors, pro
duced The Covered Wagon" and was
ably assisted in making it the wonder
tul production it is by an all star cast
OF Paramount actors. Stars who take
leading parts in the picture are Ernest
Dorrance, Lois Wilson. Richard Dix
and Charles Ogle, as well as many
others who are OF stellar importance.
Several hundred actors and actress
es are in the cast, and over 500 cover
ed wagons with their oxen teams were
actually used in the filming of the
picture.
The picture is a real western one,
and portrays vividly the hardships en-
dured by those who braved them 10
to cross the country in the early
days. The spirit OF the pioneers has
been caught and reflected in the
play. 1t is an inspiration to the pres
ent generation to reach out in the
same spirit Of their ancestors. The
play is not overdrawn. The story is
fun Of human interest and exciting
spots, but there is none Of the cheap
melodrama with impossible escapes

PEOPLE URGED TO WATCH

Finding a coyote in the kitchen Of
his home, the eight-year-old son OF
Mr. and Mrs. f. c. Payton called his
dog and together they killed the ami
NAL Saturday afternoon. The dog, a
black shepherd. worked yaliantly to
kill the animal.
From the appearance OF the coyote
81 was feared that It might be infected
with rabies, and Dr. W s. Craig.
veterinarian. was called. He sent the
head OF the animal to Dr. George w.
Stiles. government bacteriologsit, who
yesterday sent telegram to DR. Craig
saying that the brain OF the beast
showed positive symptoms OF rabies
and advising that the dog be killed
and the boy treated II he had been
bitten.
It is thought that the boy was not
close enough to the animal to be harm
ed by the poison.
Or. Craig asks everyone to watch
their dogs and livestock for indica-
tions Of this dread disease. II more
cases are found II will be necessary
to quarantine the district on this ac-
count Rabies Is a dreadful thing to
have in a community for animals and
humans alike fall prey to its ravages
SO II behooves everyone to keep a

from Indians and other perils which
are shown all too often in pictures OF
this kind. 1t is a true picture of the
actual life of the people who crossed
the plains in the covered wagons.
Many things which are not usually
found and not usually thought about
are in this picture, which shows how
life really went on during the long
days when a few miles progress was
made from sunrise to sunset So
realistic is the story, even in the
minutest details, that it has failed to
received a single criticism. The
u, 600 feet OF film are full of human
interest and truth.
From London to Sydney, Australia,
the picture has met the instant admir-
alton of all who have seen it and in
this country it has been phenomenal
runs. In one theater in New York
City the picture was shown for 90 con-
secutive weeks; in Los Angeles the
play ran for so weeks in succession.
These are but two examples of the
popularity OF the picture. 1t is excel
lent in every respect, and. as said be-
fore, Delta is fortunate to have a NOV
ing picture management which will OBJ
tain films like these for the public.
1t is a matter OF great expense to
procure these big pictures but the
Colonial and Rialto theater manager
is always anxious to serve. This is
but another indication Of his splen-
did spirit.

you, didn't vods"
almost before I knew Il his arms
were around me; a. he bent to kiss
me felt his heart beating against
my own.
When Lawrence stepped back and
looked at me there were tears In my
eyes: was so happy that 1 just
couldn't keep from crying.
"Dodo. you knew II all along,
didn't you--knew that loved you. !,
mean" he said softly.
"Yes. I thought did. but some
times I felt pretty doubtful" an,

Il was on the verge OF telling you
that I loved you when YOU went OF
TO Cape Cod with John Seward"
Lawrence went on, holding me close
to him again. But I could see that
he was mad about you. and sort Of
thought that YOU cared for him. So
] decided that the only thing to do
was to wait and see how things
turned out. He's a much richer man
than I am, and much more prom
incnt and attractive"
"Oh. he IL not more attractive" I
cut In. You're the best-lookins

you have plenty OF clothes" he re-
piled.

II was impossible to think OF any
