Red Mirage" !. A. r. Wylie's SEN
s~ational novel. as its feature picture
beginning today. This should be
good news for local motion picture
enthusiasts. rs the picture Is her
aided as one Of the finest ever pro-
duced.
The novel was a gripping story of
love and duty, set against the chro-
matte background Of the French
Foreign Legion in Algiers. The pic
ture is said to excel the book in
the colorful presentation OF the lives
and adventures, the passions and the
impulses of these iron soldiers and
the steely discipline under which
thye live.
Norman Kerry and Lewis Stone

have exceptional roles in this pic
ture. Opposite them are two popu-
lar women, Mary Nolan and June
Marlowe, one Of the exotic. heart
breaker, the other the adorable
sweetheart type. Miss Nolan is re-
membered as one of the most glori-
u of the famous Ziegfeld's Follies.

ciety man and army officer who be-
zones infatuated with an unscrup-
ulous woman, a blonde Of indescrib-
able beauty. Her kisses spell dis
aster. His fate is t. be cashiered

Foreign Legion, as a private under
the command of his own father, who
had similarly dropped out Of sight
before him. The dangerous blonde

hero's real sweetheart. her sister.
How father and son, their identities
unknown to one another, lock horns
over the adventures, the unusual
military results that ensue and the
final working out Of the

dramas ever screened. Stone plays
the father, Kerry the son. Mary No
Ian is the adventures and Miss Mar
lowe the younger girl.
Craufurd Kent is also seer 10 ad-
vantage in a principal role. Edward
Sloman directed the piiture.

It was started by Sunday School teacher who secured cheap rates for his Sunday School excur- sions specializing in cheap trips to London These developed into Cooks Tours that covered all parts of the world Customers from the United States, boarding steamer at New York, had no more worries about their trip Cook & Son made it possible for persons with small means that, left to their own individual initiative and action, would have been beyond their finances
 Recently Cook & Sons sold out to a new european Travel Trust At that time the com pany had capital of $5.000,000 and banking company with assets of $15 ,000, ,000. The new travel corporation is capitalized for $140,OOO 900 u Will extend its services even beyond those offered by Cooks. It will not only convey tray. eers but will transact banking and exchange business. It's travellers checks will be an inter national currency.
 The desire of people to see new things i, back of this gigantic enterprise Tourist trave has long been recognized as 'big business" h Alaska, where it is still in it's nfancy there ars sufficient attractions to bring many more thou sands than now make the trip.

More or Less True

A husband likes to see his wife wear smile, but every woman knows that's one thing she can't wear while she's wearing last years clothes.
 One of the surest ways for a woman to find out why man. s first wife divorced him is to be come his second adventure.
 Father may think he would en. joy little more silence arounl home in the evening, but every time he is left alone in the house Ill evening, and can have plenty of it, he is so grouchy by tha time the family gets home mother would like to spank him.
 Another reason why couples who have been married before have a small wedding is because they have learned most wedding presents are just so much junk they have to keep around where he donors can see it.
 When a woman makes fool Of man she simply is making com plete job of the one he's already made a lot of headway on.
 It is getting so anything that an be bought on the installment nlan is something the family knows father can afford.
