THE MIDNIGHT suN' Is | SUPER MOVIE.
 LAURA IA PLANTE

In ''The Midnight Sum-, at the Lib erty theatre tonight, Dimitri Buchow- etski, noted Russian director, has produced one of the biggest screen spectacles of the year. It is a Rus sian story staged in lavish setting that rivals even "The Phantom of the Opera" and other great screen suc- cesses.
 t It's action takes place in 1913, just year before the outbreak of the great war that eventually was to sweep the Romanoffs from the throne.
 By her beauty and charm and through the influence of the coun- try's most powerful banker, young dancing girl has brought herself up from the chorus to the position of premiere hallerina of the Imperial Russian Ballet. Sought after by the great of the Empire, she finds her two most persistent suffers in the persons of the banker and the Rus sian Grand Duke.
 The dancing girl plays one against the other, but gives her affections to young officer in the Dukes personal guard. Then follows dramatic story of the intrigue and romance fringed with all the luxurious ele- gance of life in the Russian capital of that period. The girl is found in seemingly compromising situation by her sweetheart The youth in suits the Grand Duke and for this is condemned to death. The picture is marked by many lavish and costly scenes. One of the outstanding of these is the Battle of JeJwels, one of the most magnificent dance specta- cles ever screened.
 Laura La Plante heads the impos- ing list of players that protray the thrilling story of "The Midnight Sun. Miss La P1ante plays the part of the dancing girl who has captured an empire. Eat o'Malley is the cold over-bearing Grand Duke. Raymond Kearne, playing his first big part in his first big picture, is the hero George Siegmsnn impersonates the character of the grasping, licentious banker, rival of the Grand Duke for the affectins of the dancing girl.

TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS WHILE
YOUR CHILD'S AT PLAY
But. in addition. to seeing that the child j. not
injured in his home. parents also should impress
their children the necessity of being extremely care
ful while at play outdoors.
Don't let them go swimming at beach where there
is not competent life guard.
Don't let them go roller skating in the street.
Warn them about hopping rides on automobiles and
trucks. Many children arc killed in this fashion,
If possible. have them cross streets only at points
where traffic signals are located OF where policemen
are available.
Don't let young children 60 out alone in rowboat
or saiboat.
Keep your boys dog muzzled at least during the
summer.
Warn the child against building bon6res.
Don't let children play their games in the streets.
In the winter. don't let them go coastng except on
streets reserved for this purpose.

Instruct the child as to why he should nor tease

LEW CODY AT H|s BEST IN PICTURE AT
 TIE LIBERTY TONIGHT

Lew Cody has undoubtedly been pro- vided with, the greatest role of his career in John M. Stahl's production, The Gay Deceiver", from the great stage success which opens at the Lib- erty theatre tonight. It provides wide range of dramatic expression and full play in the whimsical, casual style that is so distinctly his own.
 The work of the remainder of the cast is of distinguished merit.
 Carmel Myers, playing her first big role since her triumph in Ben Hur", has a part nicely adapted to her siren style. As "the lady who is bad but awfully good company, Miss Myers offers characterization with de- licious undercurrent of ,humor.
 Roy Darcy, the villainous crown prince of "The Merry Widow, is seen as the volatile count blatantly cuck- olded by "The Gay Deceiver" He contributes generously to the humor of the picture.
 Handsome Malcolm McGregor, the ideal American type" is seen as Rob- ert, the young lover and in this role is cast opposite Marceline Day, new conner to the screen, whose last ap- pearance was as the ingenue lead in "The Barrier"
 Here is a young actress who will soon be treading on the heels of the established favorites. For a girl of her tender years she is as accomplish ed an actress as has fitted across the silver screen in some little time.
 Dorothy Phillip, returning to the screen after the retirement occasion ed by the death of her husband, Allan Holubar, has the role of "The Gay Deceiver's" wife, who forgives and forgets after an arrangement of 19 years. Her performance is of excep- tional merit.

To the Taxpayers
By Hans Rasmussen

In the past have each year given
a report to the taxpayers through the
Producers News. This l have done
because l feel the taxpayers should
know, and should be interested In
knowing, how good or bad their coun7
ty is run.
At this time l am not going to dis
cuss the good or bad part of it, just
give you the figures as get them
out of the records, which l have
handled for you the best | knew how
for the last five years-the last IA
months without any pay.
Five years ago the road and bridge
funds were $4,000 in the hole,, one
year ago both funds were on a cash
basis, being about ST., 900 to the good.
Now the road fund is again back into
the hole to the extent of over $4,000.
The bridge fund is still on cash
basis but is $4,000 behind what it was
last year.
To give you a better idea about
what has been spent for road and
bridge work l will go back a few
years:
1922, $67,179.12, Link in charge
average for next four years, $50, 499
rs, Rasmussen in charge; 1927, $87,
652.O2, Commissioners in charge.
In 1927 our total taxes for road anC
bridges was $69,951.75, but we spen
$87 ,652.O2, or about $4,000 more thai
we took in.
Last year we received some gaso
line and other taxes amounting u
7 about $1,000, which we are not goinl
to get this year, so our road am
! bridge funds will get about $6S, 90
r this year instead of about S7O,OOO las
D year.
f What is going to happen then,
$4,000 is again spent. the same a
last year? We will simply run an
other $4,000 in the hole, that's all.
If the majority of you think thu
this is all right, why should | worry
So if you say: 1--WE don't give a darl
o we want roads,, then it is all rlgi
with me, but, if you want more none
