PALACE DELEGATES
new ORGAN SUNDAY
Night of Love" is Feature
Picture

Sunday marks another "red letter"
date" in the history of the Palace
Hamilton's Theatre Beautiful. 1t is a
foregone conclusion that this Easter
Sunday will live long in the memory
of Palace friends and patrons, for it
is the day on which the Palace man
agement will formally dedicate their
new $4,000 Mighty Wurlitzer Unit
Organ, installation of which has just
been completed. And as the feature
picture attraction on this memorable
occasion, Old Man Palace has selected
"The Night of Love-" a beautiful ro-
mantle drama co-starring Ronald Col
man and Wilma Banky.
"The Night of Love" is staged
among scenery exactly duplicating
certain localities of Spain, and with
sets designed from authentic Spanish
edifces of four hundred years ago,
the picture may be called faithful in
every detail
"The Night of Love" is real ro-
nance in nhistorical setting, and
throughout the picture it is the ebb
and flow of tense and throbbing love
which the spectator follows with sus-
pense-filled interest. Feudal Spain
is there, before your eyes, with its
courtly grandees, beautiful women,
adventurous vagabonds and soldiers,
each character drawn and etched by
the master hand of Director George
Fitzmaurice!
The love story is the paramount
theme of the picture and romantic
love surely has never been better por-
trayed-nor has the hot blood of
Spain ever pulsed more passionately
than in many of the scenes between
Ronald Colman and Wilma Banky.
Miss Banky as the beautiful Prin-
cess Marie is intensely alluring, yet
only subtly voluptuous. Colman is
the perfect lover, strong, manly, and
fired by genius for love-making.
Kidnapping Miss Banky on her
wedding night, Colman finds himself
hating and fearing and at last loving
the woman he has sworn to Destroy
From her attitude Of proud distrust
in the early part of the picture Miss
Banky slowly changes her characteri-
zation until at last she becomes a will
ing victim Of the urge that has crept
into her heart to conquer her.
Through the whole story runs the
thread of beauty and romance, pictur-
esque settings, colorful scenes, brave
men and fair women-which will
make The Night of Love-" a picture
to be remembered.
Needless to say, Old Man Palace
has put forth every effort to make
the dedication of their new Wurlitzer
organ an outstanding event in the
history Of Hamilton's theatrical cir
cles. In his endeavor to present a
musical program befitting the occa-
sion, Old Man Palace secured the
services of one of the foremost Wur-
liter masters Mr.. Frank G. Will

European governments that have
picked off concessions" in China,
fearing the loss of these, are propa-
gandizing furiously for American
"joint action" in China. SO far they
have been careful not to say just
what that means. But Americans
ought to know it is something the
United States wants nothing to do
with. American desire is for Chinese
freedom and nothing else. American

INTERNATIONAL TRUST NEXT?
Are we about to make the acquain-
tance of an international trust :?
There are indications that such COM
binatiOn is In view.
An international electric trust may
be the next great economic and in
dustrial development of interest in
this country. American, German,
French and Belgian interests are said
to be dallying with the idea of form
ing coalition to control the trade
Of the world.
The chief electrical companies men,
toned in connection with the project
are the General Electric Company in
the United States, the Lowenstein
group, in which the French and Bel
gian companies are represented, and
the Allegemaine Elektrizitaets Ge-
sellschaft and the Siemans Company
in Germany.
Representative of the latter COM
pany are quoted in cable dispatches
as saying that the plan has been
known by their concern for some time
and that deep consideration was being
given it.
Well, why not? We foster, en-
courage and fatten our national
trusts. Sometimes the interests of
the local trusts make them most war
like and bristle-backed. With vast
international interests would they not
become power for peace? Exploit
alton by trusts may yet have it's val
liable usages.

close until June 80.
1t is more than probable that the
convention this year will be asked to
amend the constitution of the fedora
tion so as to permit the holding of the
annual conventions in the late spring
or month of June.
1t is expected that this years con-
vention will be the most important

The United States treasury reports
that holders of Liberty bonds have
allowed $35, 100000 due them as in
terest to remain in the treasury un-

Bond holders forget that the cou-

interest and should be clipped and

ROUND TWO IN ELECTRIC
PLANT CASE FOR PEOPL

Round two in the battle to thwart
them in their efforts to rebuild and
enlarge the city's electric light plant
was awarded the people Monday in
the circuit court of appeals.
It was away back in September,
1920, that the people voted $650,000
for the purpose of extending, enlarg-
ing, improving and repairing the cleo
trio light plant. The vote stood 1889
for and 703 against. At that time
there was no big electric company
after the city's business but very,
very shortly thereafter there was an
awakening to great possibilities, and
from that time on there has been
much activity to halt the city's pro-
ceeding with the rebuilding and the
enlargement of the plant.
For some reason, best known per-
haps to others, there was much leth-
argy apparent in council on the ques-
ton, and not until the present coun-
Gil took hold was there any effort
made to further the project. On Feb
ruary "a, 1926, council, by ordinance,
ordered the work to proceed.
On September Is, 1926, the morn
ing on which bids were received for
the work, action to enjoin the city
from awarding contracts was brought,
in the name of taxpayers, by three
well-meaning, perhaps, but misguided
citizens.
On December Ia, 1926, three
months later, Judge Risinger render
ed a decision, upholding demurrer
to the suit on the ground that the
taxpayers petition did not state a
Cduoc lOI dCtlOli. DlSiIllSSdl VI lIle
petition was ordered.
Now comes the court Of appeals, to
which the case was appealed, and sus-
tains the lower court in its decision
and says: "It requires no citation of
authority on the proposition that the
court will not interfere with the dis
cretion Of council and the city author
tiles in the business management of
the city"
1t is likely to mean a three-round
affair, as the counsel is considering
taking the matter to the states su-
pFeme court. However, the people
have the opponent groggy, with two
rounds to their credit, and are con-
fident of ultimate victory. The peo-
pie, it seems, always have a hard
battle to get what they want, but
they usually stick till they get it.

THE "Y" DRIVE

One hundred and fifty of Hamilton's
live wire men are at this time up on
their toes, in the heat of battle, de-
termined to put the annual current
expense canvass of the Hamilton
Y. M. c. A. across successfully. And
that these faithful workers will be
successful in their efforts is most GER
tain, and deservingly so. The goal
set for this year is s25, 400, or nearly
5000 less than that asked for last
year. 1t is believed the drive this
year will go way over the top.

when the "Y" is dues-paying insti-
tution-why the dues or membership
fees are not increased so as to make
the institution self-sustaining. They
argue that those using the "Y" should
pay for it and keep it up. This can't
be done very we'll for the reason that
if the institution charged full price
for the service it renders, many of
the boys and young men, who really
receive the greatest benefits, would
be barred from it because of the high
price for membership.
Because of it's character building
of boys and young men, the "Y" is one
of Hamilton's greatest assets. 1t is
here the character molding of our
future citizenship is taking place.
For this reason alone, and many 9TH
ers could be enumerated, the Y. M.

CURE FOR LAME DUCK" EVIL
The "lame duck" and the filibuster
can be removed by the Norris amend
ment to the constitution. This will
abolish the session of congress and
that body will not adjourn until all
business is completed.
Congress now adjourns on March A.
This makes a filibuster possible.
Members are elected in November and
do not take office until 13 months
later. Those who have been repu-
dated by their constituents continue
to legislate during that time. AS
they are generally interested in soft
federal berths, it is easy to conceive
where their interests lie.
The Norris amendment has been
passed three times by the senate, but

in the house. 1t is significant that
the senate, which favors the plan, is
attacked by special interests, while
the house, where a "gag" on debate
operates, opposes the amendment.
Those who denounce the senate ia

rather than end the "lame duck" sys-
:em which is useful to them.
