The vehicle chosen for Grange,
wagon, still could not be termed a
chariot of fire" for originality of
structure or action. The story-that
of a college youth whose school
career is nearly blighted by an un-
sympathetic parents dictum against
playing foot ball-is punctuated
throughout with diverting college
humor and typical campus scenes.
The remarkable feature, aside from
Oranges individual performance, is
the clear-cut action photography of
the foot ball game. which forms the
climax. This game, as foot ball
games go, is not as thrilling as it
could have been with a little more
foot ball science injected into the
scenes preliminary to Oranges great
getaway, which furnishes the real
thrill of the piece. But the incom-
parable ball carrier is there at his
best, and his famous zig gag trail
through the enemy line is shown TO
perfection. AS an action picture of
foot ball, "One Minute to Play" has
never been equalled. A difficult feat
has been accomplished with signal
success.
Red is supported by Mary Nc
Allister. sister of the coach and
Reds" sweetheart: Charles Ogle, in
the role of the dad" who revoked
his dictum in the dying moments of
the all-important fracas; Ben Hen
erickson, jr.. who makes a realistic
coach, and a we'll selected cast of
collegians and university char
acters.
More college life is depicted in the
added comedy reel. THE CollegianS."
and the orchestral overture carries
out the general theme with Il medley
of campus airs. The usual news reel
completes the program.

WARDMAN PARK-"Tl1e GOlem."

The Motion Picture Guild, continu-
ing work which it undertook a couple
of months ago. is presenting at Ward
man Park Theater picture which is
remarkable in many ways. although
its principal claim to greatness lies in
its superb delineation Of the Teutonic
mind. Practically twin to "rhe
Cabinet of DR.. Caligari," which was
shown at the Wardman Park a few
weeks ago, THE Golem'' has an in
dividuality which is marked. But it
also, paradoxically. has an element of
type that makes it universal.
The story of the picture is a de-
velopment Of the old ankenstein
legend, which to the Anglo-SaXon mind
is merely grueSOme. but to the Ger
man is one of fantasy as Well 1t has
many characteristics that are repel-
lent, but back of it all lies q moral
the old moral that all of the German
fairy tales possess, that of the triumph
of good, especially of childish inno-
cence and grace, over the evil factors
Of everyday life. The great clay
statue started on its career of de.
struction and fury by a man is finally
stopped through the heroism and
power of a child. To those who have
not yet completely grown up and who
never expect to it is a story full
of charm, despite its terrible moments
1t is the kind one liked to hear Just
before going to bed, and then all night
long one saw it enacted over and
over.
The Golem" is another triumph in

to aid the work Of the guild in "re-
viving an intellectual interest in the

CALIFORNIA STRAIGHT AHEAD

Reginald Denny becomes the 1925
pioneer" OF the open road in Cali
fornia Straight Ahead" his latest
starring Universal-Jewel feature
which comes to the Plaza Theatre
next Monday and Tuesday nights.
In this picture, Denny sets forth
for a motor trip across the contl-
nent in an elaborately constructed
trailer. The trailer had been built
for his honeymoon, but the honey
moon didn't come off because he
showed up late for his wedding and
his bride wouldn't marry him be-
cause she thought he'd been drink
ing.
That starts Denny off on a picture
packed full of strange situations,
mishaps, adventures, thrills ana
laughs, which makes California
Straight Ahead" one of the funniest
light comedies of the season.

and Mrs. Ebe Davidson from this
place. There may have been more,
but the large congregation did not
permit seeing everyone.
At IL o'clock, the sermon by Bish-
op Mcdowell of Washington, d. c.,
was an impressive one, from the 18th
chapter OF Exodus, where Moses
cried unto the Lord; and the LORD
showed him tree, which when he
had cast into the waters, the waters
were made sweet; there he made for
them a statute, etc. And the twenty
six verse states "for / am the Lord
that healeth thee" Then in the af-
ternoon, ordination services were
impressive, when elders and deacons
were appointed by the Bishop. Then
the Boys Conference, which COM
prised over a hundred young men,
marched into the church, nine OF
whom cOnsecrated themselves to the
ministry.
Mrs. A. B. Frye attended the NJ. E.
Conference.
Rev. A. B. Frye has returned TO
this charge with his faithful Wlle
and two sturdy sons.
This will be the third year for his
services as our minister, and We
trust it will be a season of blessing.
These good people are beautiful ex-

other, and pray for the Holy Spirit
to abide in our hearts.

The United States Steel Corpora

announcement that its employees,
who attend the camps, will receive
full pay from the company during
the thirty days they will be away
at Plattsburg or at some other camp.
Referring to the generous attitude
OF these concerns toward their em-

"Far-sighted business men look up
on the thirty days training given to
young men at the Citizens Military
Training Camps as a sound invest
ment." Then, going into statistics,
the General explained that dividends
in health were paid by these camps.
From last years figures" Cen
eral Summerall continued, IAN av-
erage gain of five pounds was made
by each candidate at the camp and
this year, with improved training
facilities, the averages should be
higher.
"By supporting the Citizens Mill
tary Training movement, business
executives are giving the Regular
