SATURDAY EVENING POST STORY NOW ON SCREEN

Henry Payson Dowst's great story, "The Man From Ashaluna," has been transferred to the screen as "On the Stroke of Three" by the Associated Arts Corporation. With Madge Bel lamy and Kenneth Harlan in the star ring roles it is shown at the Liberty theatre tonight only. How we'll the picture has been cast and interpreted may be judged from the fact that such capable artists as Mary Carr, John Milan, Dorothy Damn, Eddie Phil | lips, Robert Dudley and Edward and MT. Harlan. The settings of the story, involving as they do the con- | trast of the rush and whirl of New York with the peaceful setting of a rugged mountain country, are parti- cularly beautiful pictorially and add considerably to the unfolding of an
 entertaining story F. Harmon Weight directed the production, which was picturized by Phillip Lonergan. None of the power and charm of the ori
 ginal has been lost in transferring the story to the silver sheet.

THE BOTTONLESS ROAD

State engineers finished paving main highway in
Ohio near the Indiana border and opened to traffic
Then 300 feet of the road fell into the earth Thousands
of tons OF earth have been dumped into the hole only
to disappear. Al the end of the days work some
progress seems to have been made. By morning the
hole is deep as ever.
Still more mysterious the fact that the level
of surrounding fields has been raised
Some scientific guessers believe that once upon
time-say few thousand years ago-there was lake
nthe spot. 1t became encrusted with lly-pads and
grasses, soil formed gradually and eventually
there deposited enough material to present

THE SKYSCRAPERS SCRAP

Harvey Wiley Corbett, leading American architect,
comes to the defense of the skyscraper, saying:
Nearly every foreigner who to this country
is impressed beyond degree by tall buildings which
soar into the air with magnficence that lifts them
off their feet.
THE skyscraper is the only thing which modern
architects and engineers have added to the worlds
architecture. 1t has been magnificent as it
is today
Fhereupon James R. Gordon president of the New
York Society of Architects replies that some of the
more modern skyscrapers very nice, but most of
them are not designed with the idea of harmony"
Also that while the tall building standing by itself,
like Pixies Peak is all right, when they them
both sides of the street, to make canyon they
create bad conditions and eliminate the opportunities
for architectural effects
In other words the merit of skyscraper depends
of what kind of skyscraper it is and where it stands
and how many skyscraping neighbors it has.
Most of the criticisms of tall buildings in general
is stirred up by people who insist that all tall build
ings good because the Woolworth building is good
because New York has wonderful skyline
from the bay Chicago ditto seen from the lake
1t is never safe 10 assume that architectural ef-
feet giving distinction to city will be good thing
for another. In this matter level-headed architect
advises small cities not needing high buildings and
having proper setting for them to go slow.

THE SUNDAY BLUES

1t is probably worth while to invoke an old blue
law, as done lately in Irvington, n j., for the
sake of the object lesson.
Nearly 100 street motormen and conductors taxi
cab drivers druggists decaessen men, shoe polishers,
BARRIERS and others engaged in service entertainment
Sunday arrested released bail and allowed
to go back to their jobs while awaiting trial for their
offenses.
This was done under law enacted by the New Jer
sey legislature in 1854 which forbds any sort of work
not absolutely necessary, any sport games or
any music that might be construed sung "for the
sake of merriment.'
That law might be invoked and enforced anywhere
in the state If it were it would put stop to almost
endless activities which though they might have been
dispensed with in the simpler life three-quarers of
century without public hardship, regarded as
essential today and sanctioned accordingly by pub
lie sentiment
1t hardly be said that such enforcement helps
religion morals. What does is to strengthen the
general desire for personal freedom of thought and
action.
