They planned to take their canoe down the Sacanada river and then up the pretty Kunjumuck to Elm Lake, their objective.

 Tomorrow the challenger will again settle down to the last stretch of intensive training at his camp here. He will keep at it ac- cording to present plans up to the last minute before leaving Monday for Stroudsburg, Pa, where his new training camp will be established, in preparation for the championship fight in Philadelphia September 23.

The vaudeville bill is opened up by Laurie and Rayne, who do some very clever steps. Rule and Penney are simply riot in their song and piano act. Both Rule and Penney put over their numbers to perfection. Then a comedy sketch on married life showing the days before and after, is very pleasing and scores a good number of laughs. Packard and Ford, known on the vaudeville stage as the two nuts In a garage, carry off enough laughter and applause to assure the entertainment in their act. Glynn Valjean and Go. present a very novel hoop act that is very entertaining.
 The feature photoplay, "The Shamrock Handicap" contains a cast that sounds like a directory of who's who in Hollywood. Leslie Fenton, J. Farrel Macdonald, Claire Mcdowell, Willard Lewis, Brandon Hurst and many others.
 There is enough action, romance and comedy in "The Shamrock Handicap" to please everyone.

NEW TYPE STEEL
 WILL CUT COSTS
"Jalcose' Tried Successfully in
 Manufacturing Problems

Pittsburgh Aug. 27 P>-Use of 'jal cose" steel, a substitute for some of the steels now utilized in the manu- facture of many kinds of machinery will undoubtedly tend to reduce the strain on the nations pocketbook as the production cost is declared by its makers to be considerably lower than that of materials now used. The new product. a hard surface steel with touch but ductile inner core, has been perfected by the Jones and Laughlin Steel Corpor- ation after years of research.
 The field for the new steel, an officials of the company has point ed out, lies in the fact that there has arisen an insistent demand for a steel for parts of automobile and air plane engines as well as labor saving devices for the home, office and fac tory which would serve the same purpose as special alloy steels with out being as costly.
 Severe tests of 'jalcose" in leading automobile factories and elsewhere in machinery where there are parts subjected to severe wear, repeated shocks and high stressed have re- suited in speeding up production and at the same time reducing cost Other reports on the substitute for the all hard steel declare it extends the life of cutting tools, augments drilling speed and has full qualifications for case hardening and forging
 These advantages the company contends, will contribute toward lower selling prices of a large num- Der of commodities in general public use.
 "Jalcose," which is a product of the open hearth furnace. will be ex- hibited at the exposition of the American society for steel treating in Chicago, next month, in the form of hot rolled and cold finished bars and automobile and other machinery parts.

1.-THE FRESHMAN AT LYCRuM

Enjoy a good laugh? Sure, everybody does! Then do not fail to visit the Lyceum theater and see Harold Lloyd in his greatest comedy bf all-"The Freshman" A scream from start to finish, the spectator will gigle with the crude country boy as hemakes big plans for col lege. they will snicker when the nick arrives at school, they will laugh when he attends his first formal affair and they will simply roar when he tries to make the football team. Yet with all the mirth and comedy, thereis vein of hu- man interest in sympathy that makes this more than farce comedy. Harold Lloyd in "The Freshman" represents the very pin- nacle of this actors career as an outstanding American comedian.
 On the same bill the Lyceum is presenting another film drama, My Old Dutch," a picture with a setting in old England, with many scenes laid in quaint old London town and with May McAvoy taking the lead ing role.
