Cherry shrank against the back Of

She glanced helplessly at her sister,

when in presenting certificates of merit to eleven
1nechanics who had earned them for the excellence
OF their work on the new John Jay Hall at the
University he said "In this university we try to give
marks of distinction that will be ecognzed all over
the world because CT the standard that is used to
measure the performance. When man or woman

testimonial that is recognized in any part of the

The Philippine Report

There will be general satisfaction at the news
that the essential parts and perhaps all Of the report
of Colonel Carm Thompson On conditions in the
Philippines will be published. The public is justi-
fiaby curious as 10 the content of this report and
President Coolidge, whose emissary Colonel Thomp
was, has announced that very little, if any, Of
the matter in the report will be kept confidential
to himself.
The situation in the Philippines is not much diff
ferent today than it has been for long time past.
There is great demand. for autonomy and great
demand for complete independence from the United
States, but there is but little doubt that a close
analysis CT this demand will reveal that it is but a
subterfuge whereby certain educated Filipnos hope
to loot the country under the very noses IF their
more stupid and uneducated fellow countrymen.
One thing we do hope is that Colonel IT. mpsons
report will enable the matter to be cleared up fer
a long time to come From all indications the
report will look with extreme dsfavor Upon COM
pcte independence at this time and it is to the end
of complete justice t. the Filipino that indcpend-
be withheld for some time to come The
rich, undevelsped resources Of the islands are a
tremendous temptation to those who wish t. profit
greatly, at the expense of the islands and their in
habitants We're the Philippines independent at the
present time, with the inhabitants in their present
uncducated state, they could be looted of their
birthright without having the faintest idea it
being done.
The conservation of these resources can 9nly be
accomplished through the United States at the
present time and the Filipino will be better off for
the time if he forgets lot of sentmentaity about
independence and Insiders for a moment his Geo.
romc, future.

CAPITOL THEATRE

Time and tide wait for no man,
But q role in a motion picture will
wait for an actor for an entire year
if the actor is deemed necessary to
the success of the film play.
Universal was forced to. wait
twelve months to secure the service
Of Charlie Murray for one of the
leads in "The Cohens and Kellys," the
picture which will be shown at the
Capitol Theatre, beginning tonight.
Having purchased Aaron Hoff-
mans famous stage play, Carl Laem-
nile felt that no man was so suited
to the role as Charlie Murray, SO it
was decided to hold up production
until Murray was available.
At the time, Murray. was busy and
also had five contracts in his pocket
to play in other pictures. Universal
got next in line and after patiently
waiting year for the great come
dian, Harry Pollard was assigned to
direct the picture. George Sidney
and Vera Gordon, meanwhile, had
been signed to play the other fea-
tured roles. In this comedy drama
of a Jewish and Irish family.
Carl Laemmle saw the picture i'm
mediately after its completion and
was overjoyed at the result. "Wait
five years next time, if necessary"
he said. -.
Others in the cast of this picture
are Kate Price, Jason Robards, Olive
Hasbrouck, Bobby Gordon and Mickey
