 The story Is an adaptation Of George Gibbs novel. The scenes are laid in Lake Louise, Canada; in a little village in Brittany New York and Washington, D. C. It is against these contrasting backgrounds that the plot unfolds in absorbing detail the life and love stories of two ss- tcrs, whose characters stand out in startling dissimilarity
 The newly installed Robert Mor- ton mammoth pipe organ was heard yesterday for tho first time and was well liked. Its mclodious tones and incidental muGic for the picture was greatly enjoyed. Xob Nasco. q noted organist from New York is at the console and his music was surely appreciated at the performance yesterday. The Keith vaudeville bill is beaded by "The Love Boat, a farce by CayanauGh and Lester and a big cast Other acts include Cannon and Lee in q bicycle novelty: Clifford and Marion, delightful comedy pair; Mahoncy and Talbot, q melodious team of chaps; and Mack and La Ruo in sensational ekatng act.

THE TRIILERS"-IYCEUM

"The Triflers," the feature uttrac- ton at the Lyceum. is something more than good photoplay. It is a warning 10 the reckless youth Of today who may think that life is just one filtration after another. Mac Busch Eva Noyak, Frank Mayo, Lloyd WhtIock and Elliott Dexter are starred. The story concerns a wealthy young miss who toys with the affections of her admirers. Eventually, for protection, she goes through a marriage ceremony with q young man who also is something of trifIcr but who cares nothing for her. In inc end of course, inc two fall in love and make their mar r1ge a real one, but not until both have passed through some mighty serious as well as some ludlcrous situations, The picture has all the elements of popularty-romanco heart interest, pathos, tragedy and genuine. comedy. It will continue through Wednesday,
 On Thursday inc I.yccum will show, in connection with The Dark Swan," "Tho Daughters 4of the Streets" special Italian picture which has titles and words in Eng lish as well as Italian. This picture will he shown two days only, but "The Dark Swan" will be held over for the remainder of the week.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., May 49,
The attack of the coal operators on
the coal miners union was continued
at the convention of the National Coal
Merchants Assc citation, when Walter
| Gordon Merritt counsel for the an
thracite coal operators association,
declared that increases in wages
would be denied the anthracite min
ers and a reduction in wages would
be attempted. The agreement be-
tween the coal operators and the
miners union, covering the anthracite
fields, expires on August 80.

rift. who is about to succeed S. d.
Warmer as chairman of the anthra-
cite coal operators committee, de-
clared.

violation of existing agreements" The
strikes in the anthracite fields have
been brought about by violations Of
the existing contract by the operators
The operators highly praised Presi-
dent Coolidge and admitted that he
has been their best friend in their
moves against organized labor. "It
is particularly gratifying to note that
President Coolidge has taken cogniz-
ance Of the widespread dissatisfaction
with the policies and practices Of the
federal trade commission" said Rod
erick Stephens, in his report present
ed on behalf Of the governmental re-
lations committee. Stephens urged
that governmental Interference" be
stopped, except when the government
decisions are against the union.
at is also gratifying to note that by
a recent appointment President Coo
lidge has given a majority of the
votes to the republican members, thru
whose action there has been announc-
ed a change Of procedure" Stephens
said.

rocco be brought home.
The socialists, as usual, have to date
made no active protest against the
foreign invasion Of the French army
They have been content to with
hold support" in parliament when ap-
propriations were voted for the bloody
Morocco campaign. But they are
participating in the Painleve govern
ment, which is sending 100000 French
workers to suppress the colonial work
ers.
Meanwhile the Riffians are concen-
tRating large forces in the Chechouan
district. The neutral tribes in that
district have joined Abd-el-Krim in
the fight to save their native soil from
the foreign foe.
PainIeve Works for Capitalists.
Premier Painleve has sent all
available troops to Morocco. Three
hundred airplanes are now dropping
bombs on the Riflan natives. The
French attackers are under the com
mand of Marshal Lyautey, military
dictator of French Morocco. In the
past week, colonial troops stationed
in France have ben sent across the
Mediterranean into Africa, and the
metropolitan regiments have now
been instructed to follow.
Painleve is attempting to Justify
the attack by stating that the slightest
set back at the hands of the Moroc-
cans Nigh mean general revolt
against the French occupation Of the
north African territories.
The Moroccans have been Cypress
ed by the French military dictator
ship because of the valuable natural
resources in Morocco, which are be-
ing exploited by French capitalists.
The workers are being slaughtered
to protect the property Of these i'm
perialists, which was stolen from the
native Africans, the Communists
point out.
