NEW TARIFF NEED
 STRESSED BY SIMS
Exchange Club Speaker Says
 European Conditions Bad

Unless our tariff policy is changed the United States is threatened with industrial collapse within the next three years," declared H. U. Sims in an ad- dress to the members of the Exchange club at the Tutwiler hotel Monday. MT. Sims, who has just returned from tour
 If Europe, during which he visited nine countries, says that while superficial view of the situation indicates returning prosperity, the real situation is bad. r The European nations must sell their goods to America to re-instate them selves financially and America must export her goods to Europe for our pres ent prosperity to continue, he declared.
 As an evidence of big misleading a casual view of the situation might be, Mir. Sims cited conditions in Vienna, where the shops are filled with splendid merchandise and the people are buying great quantities of goods and spending money, despite the fact that economic conditions of the country as a whole are in a precari0us condition. Mir. Sims asserts that Russia is the stronger au- tocracy the world has been in centuries masquerading under a cloak of com munism. ."%
 The attendance prize, donated by Tom Gragg, was won by Milton Bustch.
 Jas. Craik, who won a golf tourna- men at the recent national convention of Exchange clubs in Nashville, was pre- scented with a large silver loving cup, donated by the national organization. A speech of presentation was made by J. Frank Wilson.

Patricia

John Robinson's circus departed radically from the cut and dried num- bers of yore in it's 1924 edition. It was circus, vaudeville, and fairyland, all brought together and presented to the public amidst riot of color and song, yet lacking nothing of the atmosphere of the sawdust arena which had made the circus come to be known as the great est of all amusement institutions-ty- pically American.
 From the moment Robert Thornton, equestrian director, blew his silver whistle for the opening number of the Monday afternoon performance until the hurdle races, there was something of interest going on under the big top. Il was a diversified program, evidently prepared with a thought for the grown ups, yet never forgetting that the circus is essentially for the children.
 The big show program opened with 'Peter Pan in Animal Land" as billed, musical extravaganza" glittering with gold and velvet, featuring mag nificent horses, beautiful women, the knight of old, the rythmithis drum of toms and the music of the Orient, all enacted into the dream of Wendy, a little girl who had fallen asleep in front of a cottage in the park.
 But to many, the real thrill of the show came when Miss Patricia Salmon, find" of newspaper men in the far west, entered the hippodrome track rid ing her magnificent snow white mount, Katie"

MARRYMORE AT TEMPLE

Meriting a really dramatic story ana adequate setting, with exceptional acting on the part of it's distinguished star, Lionel Barrymore, in "Meddling Wo- men," caused quite a furore Monday at the Temple theater. This is one of the biggest productions released this year by Chadwick Pictures corporation and will make a strong bid as one of the screen achievements of the current year.
 With Lionel Barrymore, start of the first water, heading the cast of eminent players, there was enough of first-rate acting to satisfy the most hIase reviewer. Besides Mir Barry more, there were Sigrid Holmquist, Dagmar Godoksky, Hugh Thompson. Ida Darling. Alice Hegeman, Antonio D'Algy, William Bechtel, and others
 In addition to "Meddling Women,' the Barrymore production, the Temple also offers our old friend, Bobby Yer non, in one of his latest and best come dy skits, Bright Lights" This comedy is only two short reels, but how much they have crowded into these two reels can best be appreciated by seeing it.

Circus Scores CoLorfuL Hit
 Tn One Day Appearance
Patricia Salmon Proves Outstanding Star
 Among Stellar Attractions

Ziegfeld Follies. This young woman, with a marvellous yodeling voice sings with the band; and draws one of the biggest hands of any number on the pro- gram. It was the highest of high spots.
 There's much more of interest to write about, but too much to mention it all.
 Peter Taylor delighted the audience with his mixed group of jungle bred savage animals, including Bengal tigers, Nubian lions and ionesses and black mane African lions, sixteen in number, and one of the outstanding acts on the program. It was a real thriller in every sense of the word.
 Among others might be mentioned the work of the Morales family in hair, teeth and foot slides; Cheerful Gard ner and his 75 tons of giant and baby elephants; Miss Rogers rendition of the Dove Song;" animal acts under the direction of the Guilfoyles the work or the clowns and many more.
 Educated Horses
 Especially interesting were the high school and jumping horses featuring Ola Donovan, riding "Lady Miss" Ova Thornton, riding "Cleveland;" Edna Correon, riding Ruby" Anna butler, riding Captain" and Billie Burton, riding Atlas"
 John Robinson's circus is to be con- graduated, however, not only because of its splendid program, but because also of the courteousness of its em- ployes, the freedom from graft and 'girl'' shows, and because it presented every single act and feature which it's advertisements had led the public to believe would be fortrcoming.-R.W W.
