At The Movies
CAPITOL,


"The Silent Rider" Hoot Gibson's
latest starring vehicle for Universal.
Jewel. which comes to the Capitol
theatre for tomorrow. Friday and
Saturday, is the latest moving and
most thrilling western of the year
according to critics who have been
able to see previews.
Gibson himself is excellcntly cast
as a hard-riding cowboy who falls
in love with mysterious girl who
comes to the Bar Z ranch to wait
on table. Blanche Mehaffey as the
girl displays histrionic talent hith-
erto unknown even to her most loyal
fans and the rest of the featured
cast is correspondingly good
Several thrilling stunts, new even
to the athletic Gibson, are enacted
in THE Silent Rider and the action
is fast moving throughout with a
logical and pleasant ending.
Otis Harlan, who plays the part
of Hoot's partner in a hop,esteading
venture, does some splendid acting
as does Nora Cecil as the house
keeper at the Bar z ranch.

THE worries and fear Of the un-

day are rapidly passing. 8 in 10
bctter-class women employ a new
way called Kotex.
" Kotex discards like tissue. No
Z laundry, no disposal bother.
Being 5 times as absorbent as or
binary cotton pads" it permits
lightest gowns and frocks without
danger. Dance, motor, go about for
hours without a moments doubt.
Dcodorizes, too, thus ending all fear
OF offense. Doctors urge this way.
Many stores have Kotex already

TaOerns Played Big
Part in Social Life

Taverns In the Colonial days and
In the early days of the republic, es-
pecially In New England, were the
most important part of all American
social Institutions. In addition to
furnishing rest and refreshment for
the traveller the tavern was town
hall, court of justice, an auction
room, a dancing assembly and some
times a church and a playhouse.
In New England, until the repeal
of the anti-theatrical law In 1888, play
acting was vigorously banned as the
most wicked of all the contrivances
of the devil for destroying the virtue.
of the world.
However, from the motives OF pm
ternal kindness toward the populace,
and In order that they should not he
wholly without amusing diversions,
pIllories, stocks, whipping posts and
bllboes were always set up near tav-
erns so that when petty Offenders
were subjected to the operations Of
these pleasant devices the guests or
lolterers OF the taverns could hear
the groans and cries Of the victims
while slipping their flip, punch or sack.
Thus did our pious forbears furnish
free moral entertainment OF realis-
