Of the recessions. As the glacier melt

at its base. An outlet toward the
north had not yet formed. There was
only one direction for the water to go
and that was in the general direction
Of south. The discharge of the Maui

possibly for a length Of time to be
measured in centuries, the icy, milky
waters from the base Of the enfeebled
glacier reached the sea through the
valley Of the Mississippi.
Three series of sand ridges to the
west and northward into Michigan are
records of three lakes, each ridge an
old beach against which the waves
beat and upon which the ice cakes
piled and melted away-places as
bleak as Greenland shore and far
more lifeless. Making broad sweep
the beaches come around to where
the river began, south bound to the

1.-THE WISE GUYn

Frank Lloyd, who has given us 'The Lost World" and many other famous films, has not only pro- cured an unusually fine story for The Wise Guy" which opened up today at the New Palace for a three day run, but gathered a cast for this picture which shows itself eminent in every particular.
 Movie-goers will have far to seek before they find another az gregation of such glowing excel lence as is present in "The Wise Guy" It is no exaggeration to state that every member of the "Wise Guy' company is a triumph unto himself - and that includes the female stars as well.
 James Kirkwood has positively the best role of his career. He is seen in the title role of the picture, that of a hypocritical evangelist.
 Most of the others are seen in roles which for them are distinctly unusual. Mary Carr, the celebrated screen mother, for instance, is seen as a crafty and sanctimonious old sinner in 'The Wise Guy"
 There are five new acts of vaude- vile on the bill and the show as a whole is highly entertaining.
 The management announces that Lon Clancy in his greatest role as Blizzard in "The Penalty" is book. ed for a four day run starting Sun. day.

 Eugene Meyer, chairman of the presidents cotton committee, made this announcement last night.
 Action of the Texas Banking asso- citation in forming the finance cor poration assures the success of the plan for storage of the surplus of the 1928 crop pending better times, Mir. Meyer said.
 The Texas corporation, with s5,- 000,000 capital, will form the basis of $50,000,000 credit, or half the to- tai for the six states already organ ized. North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and combina- tion of Louisiana and southern Mississippi have formed corporations of S1,000,000 each.
