Every country has its caste system, In England those who are born to nobility hold themselves aloof from the less fortunate, who, purely be- cause of a matter of birth, are class ed beneath them.
 America has what seems to amount to a caste system, but here the barriers are based on wealth and family tradition.
 An outstanding example of this philosophy is seen in Doris Kenyon's latest feature, ''Mismates" which is now playing at the New Palace. Warner Baxter plays opposite Miss Kenyon. The story treats of the romance of a beautiful young mani- curist who dared to fall in love with and marry the idle son of a wealthy woman who refuses to recognize her as her daughter-in-law. It presents q scathing indictment of the mod ernized version of an ancient caste system.
 In this picture the unreasonable ness, of a naughty mother who by her power over her son sends his wife to prison for a crime she has not committed and breaks up a hap py romance that might have gone for lifetime.

BONDS WERE PART
 OF BELLS ASSETS
Pittsburgh Labor Bank Trouble
 Involves Convicted Banker

Pittsburgh, Pa, Oct. 1S.--tP}-The Liberty bonds for which the Broth erhood Savings and Trust company and several individuals paid $320,- coo to Charles Knapp, missing bond salesman, were part of alleged hid den assets of John A. Bell, former local bank head. recently conYicted of embezzlement, the Pittsburgh Gazette Times today declares. Police have been informed by Bennie Dia- mond, of Pittsburgh. Bell was presi- dent of the Carnegie Trust company which failed year ago.
 The bonds, part of alleged hidden assets valued at SS,000,00O. were be- ing sold by several men, including Knapp and Diamond, through a "prominent attorney" the newspa- per asserts. Diamond, according to the Gazette-T Times, was released by police after questioning.
 A country wide search has been Instituted for Knapp, who disap- peared last Friday after he had re- ceived the S32O,OOO in payment for the bonds which he was to de- liver at about half price. He never delivered the bonds.
 Bank is Closed
 The bank, a labor institution, has been closed pending an investigation by state banking department off cials, but it's officers insisted there were sufficient assets to pay all de- positors in full.
 R. A. McCrady, president of the bank, who has been released under s125,000 bond on various charges placed against him in connection with the case, defended his action in turning over the money to Knapp before the bonds had been delivered.
 Knapp had a good record behind him." he said. Tn entrusting the money to Knapp we did no more than any bank would do in entrust- ing money to a third messenger"
 McCrady's statement placed the total bank funds involved at $102,- 500.
 With four persons arrested Fri day, police added fifth yesterday, when they took into custody Frank Smith, alias Frank Guimario, alleg- ed companion of Knapp's and want ed for a S6,5O0 stock swindle he and Knapp were said to have perpetrat- ed in Clearfeld, Pa. He was held on a technical charge of being a sus- picious person and authorities would not indicate what connection he | might have had with the case. William Kelley and J. l.. Nelson vice president and secretary, re- spectively, of the institution. and Frank T. Redman, one of several persons who contributed to the funds which were paid Knapp, re- mained in jail today, unable to raise bond.
