The Stage show this week has
several mighty we'll known names.
Rome and Dunn, two singers of the
type Of Van and Schenk, are well
known at the Palace. These men
have an easy way in putting over a
song. They do not become quite as
dramatic in singing Laugh, Clown,
Laugh" as many others do. And
that is relief. Personally, I care
for this song only once a season, but
we will have it for many moons be-
cause the public likes it and it gives
singers a chance to "act."
Ossman and Schepp are banjo
players, but they go beyond just
that title, they are artists. This time
they are featuring 1.-THE Indian

ROMANCE is
THEME OF MARIE

He was the captain Of a whal-
ing ship and she was the new
belle of Barbary Coast dance hall.
And they met with the assistance
Of the owner of the saloon.
That is the start of "Shanghied."
Polly really didn't have anything
to do with robbing Capt. Hurricane
Haley, but he shanghied her to
make her pay back the debt.
Polly tried not to take it seri-
ously at first, and then when Haley
ridiculed her in front of the crew
and made her work in the galley,
which is a nautical term for the
kitchen, she made up her mind to
pay him back every cent taken from
him.
Then Haley sent her back to the
Barbary Coast and she sank lower
until she was working in Tai Fu's
place to get the money she need
ed. Haley finds his mistake and
takes her back to sea with him.
Patsy Ruth Miller has the part
VI Ol1Jf Vic AclAASC ian AdNOA AeC.
She is. good in the role of the
dancer and aslo as the schullery
maid on the ship. She shows a
real depth Of feeling in the latter
part and as a dancer at Tai Fu's.
Ralph Ince has the part of
Hurricane" Haley. A hard sailing
master and a tough bird who hates
not to have the upper hand. He
is good. Gertrude Aster has the
part of Big Bess, the favorite of
the dance hall before Polly came
there.

Here is the best juvenile purlesque
we have had on the screen in many
day. But it does seem to me that
the director or the story writer was
wrong in changing the tempo of this
burlesque to melodrama, that is the
actual blowing up of big dam.
Harold has his own conception of a
high school football game and the
director here has again used some
new tricks.
It seems to me when movie &C
complishes it's purpose then that
movie is not failure, miles away
from it. Harold Teen" brings
healthy modern high school hero
to the boys and girls of this coun-
try. Harold talks their language and
he gets a whale Of a big response
from his pals.

orchestra. One has a chance to
study the technique of these two
men. They begin where most banjo
players leave off. Their closing
tropical song should be done in
louder voice because this type of
song demands that intimate, clear
touch to put it over. The stage set
this week is one of those vast things
and the color scheme and arrange
ment and the way the lights are
used, absolutely prevents that init
mate touch. A little too much vast
scenery this week, especially when
the success of the stage show de-
ponds upon that intimate touch. Joe
Ross is a good dancer, in fact a
mighty clever hoofer. Emil Seidel is
directing and mastering the cere-
monies. The overture is one of the
Hungarian rhapsodies.

Harold is not fashioned, moth
ing ancient about this Tapping
flaming youngster. 1t is this element
of youth that gives most of the
winning qualities to this photoplay.
The story is weak in spots, but 1
believe in all fairness that Lake COW

is mostly juvenile, headed by Mary
Brian and Alice White, a girl that
the movie lords hope to make an
other Clara Bow. She sure has the

this week that people will talk about

Mr.. Raleigh Isaacs, 28, we'll

Friday morning, presumably about 9
o'clock, by rolling log, while as
sisting Mr.. Marion Reese in getting
out rail timber On the mountainside
near his home.
Mr.. Isaacs was alone at the time
the accident occurred and was
thought to have been dead perhaps
80 minutes when found. A log was
lying across his body and it is
thought his death was almost instan-
taneous, although the exact way in
which the accident occurred could
not be determined.
Interment was at Mabel Saturday
afternoon, Rev. E. C. Hodges con-
Quoting the funeral services. Surviv-
ing are wife, two children, his
mother, Mrs. Hiram Greene and two

c. E. Miller Must Pay
Town of Boone $4,000

Claude E. Miller, High Point brok-
er, was last Thursday directed to
pay the town of Boone $4,000,
proceeds of a note given to him last
April 3rd on his promise to secure a
loan of $4,000 for the town. Every
contention of the towns counsel,
Trivette and Conner, was upheld by
the jury in its verdict
W. C. Newland of defense counsel,
attempted to have the situation &C.
cepted as a simple debt, so that no
judgment could be taken against the
person of Miller. He contended that
Miller was not acting as agent for
the town, since the note was made
to bearer, and was, therefore, Mil
ler's property when it was given to
him. The jury, however, decided
that Miller was acting as agent for
the city and that he further know
irgly and willfully misappropriated,
misapplied or converted to his own
use" the money received for the
note.
The testimony of R. L. Pope, cash
ier of the First National Bank Of
Thomasville, established the fact
that Miller was paid by that bank
$4,000 and accrued interest for the
note on April 4thy or 5th, one or two
days after; it was issued. @a-.
Only three witnesses were placed
on the stand, Mayor W. R. Gragg,
A. Y. Howell and Mr.. Pope, for the
prosecution. Defense did not offer
any evidence.
After cashing the note, Miller is
alleged to have sent the town of
Boone two checks, both of which
were returned unpaid by the Com
mercial National Bank of High
Point, on which bank they were
drawn. The town filed bad check
charge against Miller, but it was
continued until the spring term of
Watauga superior court.
Miller is under bond in the sum of
$1,000 for his appearance at the
term of Watauga superior court to
answer the bad check charge. He is
also under bond of like amount pend
ing the return of the judgment sign
d by Judge Harwood last Saturday.
Upon return of this judgment, if it
should not be satisfactory to the
of Boone, the sheriff of Guilford
county will be asked to arrest him
and deliver him into the custody of
authorities here.

McNINCH FIRES OPENER
FOR ANTI-SMITH GROUP

Charlotte, Sept. 1S.-Frank R.
McNinch, chairman of the anti
Smith Democratic faction in this
state, fired the opening gun of the
opposition campaign to the Demo-
cratic presidential nominee here to-
night with a spirited arraignment of
Governor Smith and Tammany Hall.
Assailing the Democratic standard
bearer for his alleged "repudiation"
of paramount planks in the party,
Mr.. McNinch at the same time de-
Tended the anti-Smith organization,
which he said had been formed to
eight for the true Jeffersonian prin-
ciples of Democracy and to save the
party from having Al Smith cram
med down our throats."
Speaking at public meeting
called at Charlotte, he said: THE
Democratic anti-Smith organization
is composed of Democrats exclu-
sively, manned by Democratic en-
ployes, financed wholly by Demo-
cratic money and is preaching the
simon-pure Democratic gospel We
are fighting only to preserve the old
Democratic ship from wreck in the
storm and stress of this tempestu-

was entirely too good to keep. Two
men, with unquestionable charac-
ters-maybe you know them-took
their bags from the hotels and de-
posted them in their car standing
not so far away, and stepped back
into the lobby for some purpose.
They again went out to the ma
chine. On arriving they found two
policemen, heavily armed, on either
side of the aforesaid roadster.

gun. "Nice county, that; great
people, and fine scenery; but say,
boys, what have you got in that bag?
Whiskey, l suspect" "No, sir, nary
a drop in there" came the response
in a gutteral voice.
"But l forgot to ask you, mobiles
how do you like Asheville?"
"How do we like it? 1t is the
general consensus of opinion of the
five thousand "read heads" in assem-
bly, here that this is unquestionably
the best city in the south. Great
commercial center; the finest sum-
mer resort to be found; the hotels
and other facilities for taking care
of the wayfarer, as well as the sum-
mer tourists, cannot be surpassed.
And we forgot to mention the beau
ty of the women and the chivalry OF

Will Rogers Says:

I was kinder disappointed in
APs speech of acceptance. l
thought he was smarter than he is,
thought he would refuse.
Just think how much bigger
man AL would have been if he had
refused. If he gets elected he will
be only one out of thirty that's
held the presidency. But if he
had refused he'd be the first in
history to do that-and probably
the last.
A Democrat is naturally windier
than a Republican. He is out of
offcie more and he has more time
to think up things to say. All
Republican has to say is "well l
am in, try and get me out" While
with a Democrat he has to say
something that will get the Re-
publican out and also that will get
him in.
AL said he would take the NOM
ination because "this country IS
the country that had raised him
from obscurity to the standard
bearer of his party. Now Al
didn't have any monopoly on OBJ
scurity at birth. There is awful
few babies very well known at
weaving time.
The part of his speech that
kinder hit me was where he said
that if he was elected he would
have our government quit mess
ing around down in Latin Amer
lea. In other words if marine
went sightseeing he would have
to pay his own way.
AL is honest about farm relief.
He says he don't know corn stalk
from jimpson weed and that a
tractor might be mouth wash so
far as he is concerned. All in all,
AL did mighty fine job of prom
ising. Now l think my platform
is more constructive. l will make
!; mine up after l get in. Nobody
knows what they might want by
l'next March anyhow.
