THE BARRIER" COMES TO PALACE ON SUNDAY

Manager Dpickett announces another big seature for next Sun day-it is "The Barrier"
 Here's a film full of action! ac- tion. action! A vigorous story of early Alaskan days when men fought with their fists for their diggings in the gold fields and for the women they loved with equal readiness and fierce delight. A vivid and rugged love story conceive and told as only Rex Beach could conceive and tell it. portrayed against picturesque background of primitive life in al Alaskan village populated by fur trappcrs and seal fishers.
 Rex Beach is one of the best known of American writers. And The Barrier" is one of his best sellers. It has been read by mil Hons. Beach's stories are full of swift action, forceful characterize ticn and deep romance-elemenss nss that make them unsurpassable material for the screen. "The Spoilers" proved this. And so did Flowing Gold" "The Ne'er-dc- we'll" and "The Winds of Chance. l" The Barrier" proves it all over again.

Bob Lang don, pony express rider, army scout and friend of Gen. Custer, through Senator Stanwood, gets an appointment to West Point. There he meets Lawrence Stan wood and tho latter's sister, Betty. It is case of love at first sight.

Custer is aided by Senator ~Stanwood. In order to get Stanwood, the plot ters involve lis son with Lucretia Belden. at West Point. There is a scandal and to shield the Scna. tor, Langdon takes the blame and is expelled. He returns to Gus ter's command.

QUITS CAREER
 OF DARING AT
 AGE, A YEARS.
Captain Kettle" British zFher, Has Retired from
 Flying Forces

''UpAVON, Eng.an', Let. 27w- Air Commodore Charles RumndY; Samson, known familiarity in ilng- land as the Captain Kettle of the air force" has retired
 With his retirement there ends the most adventuresome career m the royal air force. He has pur- chased house in Wiltshire and will pass the remainder of his life in quiet contrast to his first A years.
 During the war Commodore. Samson, small, dapper man. with a short, rakish board, was such a tcrrcr to the Germans that they put price of $5,0o0 on hss head, dead CT alive.
 But one branch of the service was not sufficient for him. In the morning he was an airman After luncheon he drove an arr mored car. And he found time io odd moments to run an armored train.
 He was awarded the distin- guished service order for his dar- ing work in command of naval airplapes and armored cars nt Dunkirk. He was in command O. successful air raids on Bruges, Zeebruggc and Ostcnd in 1915.
 He was mentioned in dispatches five times and was awarded bar to his D. s. O.. the Legion of Honor and the Croix de Guarre.
 Since the armistica Commodore Samson has carried out many dar ing flights, his last one when he led four Fairey-Napier machines on a round-trip flight to Caoe7 Town
 Captain Kettle was ono of England'p pioneer fliers. He be- gan flying in 1909, when he was in the navy. The admiralty then possessed no machines, so Sam son and other officers who took to the air had to learn to fly in two aiplanes placed at their dis posal by Sir Frank Mclean. Among Samson's pioneer feats were the first cross-country night flight. the first ascent-in 1912- from the deck of man a war while steaming, and the first sea plane experiments.
 Commodore Samson is the son of Charles Leopold Samson, for-j mer president of the Law Society. !

 With five days still in front Of them before the initial perform. ance. chorus and east of the forthcoming American Legion show are already through Sith study and memorizing, and Stage Director Mack is devoting re- hearsals in finesse and stage de- pertinent, and, judging from a pre-view of the comedy it will be presented by the local players in manner that would do credit to any average stock organization.
 The play itself, while possessing somewhat more of plot than the usual musical comedy. is of that airy. helter-skelter, non-seri- ous kind of amusement so pleas ing to those theatre-goers wishing to laugh, while enough dancing specialties. songs and chorus num- bers are introduced ts add diver sity between laughs.

Is poor regulation of voltage at the

not seem possible that there could be
voltage variation to any considerable
extent without changing the connec-
tens or without having the electric
light plant speed up or slow down.
But here are the facts:
The voltage delivered by an elimi-
nator will vary with the load. If
the receiver requires more current at
Ons. time than another the voltage
wifi fall in accordance with the in
crease in load. Even if the set is con-
nected, let us say, to the 90-volt tap,
the actual voltage may rise way

40 volts would not be unusual il the
load were decreased from 10 ma to
