THE TEMPTREss' \ BR[ATHLEssLY
 THRILLING FILM

"The Temptress," much heralded Cosmopolitan Animation of Vicente Blasco Ibanez' noted novel, opens to- night at the Liberty theatre. It shows several things-it shows some hting new in gigantic thrills and pow erful drama-a screen story that fair ly thunders it's import to a startled audiences; it shows the Swedish beau ty, Greta' Garbo, as dramatic actress and emotional artist, perhaps unequal ed on the screen and its power and her wonderful artistry leaves an as- founded audience almost breathless.
 The sweep and magnitude of the story are almost indescribable; it bares human souls and makes human emotions living, breathing realities
 Miss Garbo and Antonio Moreno prove an ideal combination as the Russian enchantress and the Spanish engineer-one a pampered pet of the rich who is capable of turning into a human tigress when love finally comes to her; the other man of nature, battling the vastness of nature in gigantic engineering problems-but unable to conquer a woman's soul.
 The spectacular bull whip duel; the wreck of the great dam; the climax of the drama; these are all huge incl dentals to huge story; a romance that will never be forgotten by those who see 1t.

RED PROPAGANDA
IN j. S. ASSA|LED
Rev. J. S. Montgomery Urges
KiWanians to Fight Radi-
Gals and Atheists.

Declaring there are "47 organiZa
tions in this country seeking to wipe
out all the white and blue in the
United States flag and make it en-
tirely red" Rev. James Shera Mont
comery, chaplain of the United States
House of Representatives, yesterday
urged members of the Kiwanis Club
to use their power to suppress radl'
cal and atheistic propaganda. The
address was delivered at the weekly
luncheon of the Kiwanis Club in the
Washington Hotel.
DR.. Montgomery declared there is
one publication in this country which
has as it's slogan Take God AL
mighty out of our way; another
which declares that Gods prayer is
only the prayer of capitalists, and an
other which declares The flag of
the United States is not as good as a
bull fighters flag" Without actually
giving their names, he mentioned
other publications and organizations
equally as strong in their condemna-
ton of religion and criticism of the
United States.
Describes Organized Camps.
In the eastern section of the coun-
try, DR.. Montgomery declared, there
are organized camps in which exists
a rule that the red flag must be
flown over the doors at least once a
day.
The speaker then mentioned great
capitalists who have given their time
and money to aid humanity and the
welfare of the United States, and i'm
piled that members of the kiwanis
Club can best aid by setting an exam
ple as they have done.
Announcement was made that the
annual dinner of the Kiwanis Club
of the first division. Capital District,
will be held in the Washington Hotel
Friday night, November IS, at $50
o'clock. Harry G. Kimball, lieutenant
governor of the district, is general
chairman in charge of arrangements
and is to preside at the meeting. The
clubs in the first division include the
following:
Washington Kiwanis Club, Will
mington and Seaford, Del; Baltimore,
Havre de Grace, Cumberland, Fred
erick, Hagerstown, Fredericksburg,
Manassas and Alexandria.
Women to Be Guests.
Announcement also was made that
a women's night will be held by the
local Kiwanis Club in the Mayt1ower
Hotel Saturday evening, November 5.
Mark Lansburgh is chairman in
charge of arrangements for the latter
occasion.
A unique method of stimulating at
tendance at the luncheons was
brought out at yesterdays meeting,
when it was announced that the en-
tire membership of the Washington
Kiwanis Club has been divided into
five teams, and that the one having
the best attendance record is to donate
$50 to some worthy cause.

And they must be before any group

have liberty to do wrong. The empha-
sis is never that merely of opposition
to wrong things in the life of either
individual or of the community, but
always upon the positive virtues that
would drive out the others by the tex
pulsive power of new affection"
Here again is a group of three, all
fruit of the Spirit and all expected in
each life. The first three belong to

others see in my action. Faithfulness,
meekness, self-control are the things
that God is looking for in our living

the Spirit of Jesus to take possession
of us then this will be the result in
personal character. And such we
should be.

Paul had no belief in a quiescent

they would be rendered impotent.
