State of West Virginia,
where the money is also
spent.
We must hand it to
ex-senator Mccullough
for building a road for
the benefit of fox and
coon hunters, causing
Oakland and Garrett
County to loose what
would make it prosper
Gus.
The Emmons Coal
Co. and the Althouse
Coal Mining Co. have a
pay roll each two weeks
of $4,000 and the Ma
son & Grove Lumber
Co., with a pay roll of
$4,000, all located near
German and within ten
miles of Oakland, are
all cut off from here be-
cause of the bad road,
and most of this money
is being spent in Key

This sure would BEN
eft Oakland and Gar

spent here.

"OLD SOAK STAGE
SUCCESS COMING

"The Old Soak" has gone on the
screen.
Don Marquis famous play has been
screened with Jean Hersholt in the
starring role and Edward Sloman be-
hind the megaphone. In addition, it is
coming to the. Iris Theatre on Friday
and Saturday.
The fact that "The Old Soak" played
on Broadway for two years attests to
the popularity of the stage version,
and according to those who have been
favored in seeing pre-views, the screen
version will doubtless prove even more
popular.
Sloman did his best work in this to
put the character of the old topper on
the screen in the most aesthetic man
ner possible without at any time
breaking away from the charming hui
mainly of the man.
With rigid censorship laws on one
hand and the boiling liquor problem
on the other, Sloman achieved the al
most impossible of slipping through
this Scylla and Charybdis.
AS a result he has touched on a
particularly timely subject that is
being much argued in America at the
present time. The liquor question is
not dealt with dogmatically in 1.-THE
Old Soak" In fact, no stand is taken
on the question. 1t is treated merely
as an incident in the story, a sort of
mellow background to the life of the
Old Soak himself.
In the cast are George Lewis, June
Marlowe, Louise Fazenda, William V.
Mong, Gertrude Astor, Lucy Beau
mont, AIDA Gleason, George Sieg-
mann, Tom Ricketts, and Arnold
Gregg.
