lRefe appears little question, on
the other hand, that Dempsey's re-
turn to the ring would stimulate
tagging interest in the heavyweights.
No new figures have come along to
capture popular imagination as the
former champion did. The ring
around-the-rosy appears to be on
again in much the same fashion it
has been going on for the past few
indoor campaigns.
1t is no secret that Tex Richard
would have much preferred last
summer to have staged third and
final Tunney- Dempsey fight than
the Tunney- Heeney match that
proved d financial as well as artistic
1lop.
So long as Dempsey is around the
borders OF the racket" there will
be insistence that he take zone
more fling. 1t is a business propo-
sition and the punch is the main
factor involved. 1t disregards entire
ly the fact that two additional years

 PERCH OF THE DEVIL" AT PALACE ON SUNDAY

The dull and lonely life of a prospector's wife palled on Ida Hook. She was glad when Ora Blake, rich and beautiful widow persuaded Gregory to let her go to Europe. The two women toured the continent together and became pals. Ida told her every thing.
 But Ora proved to be a false friend. By the time Grego ~ cabled his wife that he had dis covered gold on the ranch, Ida had awakened to the fact that she loved her husband more than anything in the world. She told him so in a brief message. When Ora cabled the message shs , changed the wording and made it appear that Ida was nothing but a married gold digger, eager to get her fingers on the new. found wealth.
 Ida rushed home, taking the smiling Ora with her. How changed everything was! Her husband did not meet her at the train. He did not come to see

DEAF MUTES
 NOW WANT TO
 DRIVE AUTOS

PARIS, Jan. 5.-Deas mutes object to being barred from the ris.s to drive automobiles in France. Through their organ, the Gazette of the Deaf Mutes. !" they contend the prohibition is unfair.
 Nature, they say. compensates them for the loss of the two senses by making their vision more acute, increasing their eau tion and generally speeding up their intellectual reactions
 One of them, Maurice Meni- ardet, deaf but not mute, who is an automobile builder and is re- puted to be remarkable driver, gives 1t as his conviction that the loss of speech and hearing does not make his fellows unsafe on the road. He reminds the public that driver who ultimately be- comes deaf is not deprived of his license to drive although he is less to be trusted than deaf person who passes the driving examination in spite of his af- hiction and also has had long training and experience in over coming the disadvantages of his physical defect.

Attractions At Theatres
"SO THIS IS PARIS"
 AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

Monte Blue and Patsy Ruth Miller are again to be seen to. gether, in the new Warner pic ture, directed by Ernst Lubitsch "So This Is Paris" which opens at the Coliseum Theatre tonight.
 "So This Is Paris" is an ex tremely clever adaptation of that paragon of French comedies Re veillon, or The Midnight Revel, done by Meilhac and Halevy fin the last part of the nineteenth century, but as alive, in Paris, as though done yesterday. Lubitsch the wizard of shadowland, has made it into a photoplay, not even of yesterday, but of the heel-and. toe-and-away-we-go spirit of to- day.
 It is modern of the modern Starting as radio, which by the way, plays unique part in the story. Jazzy as Jessel-but, like Jessel, possessed of qualities that reach the deep places of life Whimsical. light, tender, bewild- eringly beautiful, yet of the earth earthly, is this transcript of life "So This Is Paris"

the original story and the con tinuity is the work of Lanier Bartlett. Mr. Pine has turned out the most entertaining vehicle that this good looking star has had to date. The comedy afforded by the highly amusing character of Smiling Morn" the grouchy oli cook of the K bar ranch, is de. lightful. and the hearty laughs with which the tale is filled are nicely interspersed with thrilling incidents and fast action. Ada Mae Vaughn is charming hero- inc in the role of Ruth Castlemau while the rest of the cast, which has evidently been hand picked, is excellent. Bob De Lacey, .he young director who brought Tyler out and who has handled him Tn all his previous pictures. has done an excellent job in directing the production.

GROW WEARY OF FREEING
 MURDERERS
French Being Stirred to Protest Against Pres
 ent Conditions

PARIS, Jan. 5.-"The \ Crimes of Juries." as one critic describes the acquittals of husbands, wives, and lovers who shoot to kill, are stirring many to protest against conditions.
 Many jury reforms have been debated in Parliament but noth- ing has been done. There re- mains, however, much agitation for the jury's participation in fixing penalties, now the prero- gative of the judge. It is argued that in murder trials juries often return mot guilty" verdicts rath- CT than take chance on the judge being too severe.
 This element of sympathy for the defendant is because most murder trials now involve wom- en, either as the killer or the killed.
 Women, of late, do more shoot ing than men, in Paris and their aim generally is good.
 A peculiar feature of these cases is that the old triangle" where an outsider does little family wrecking, soon followed by gunfire, figures more often in the provincial courts while in Paris. the bright light, night life center, family quarrels re- suit in criminal deaths more often than do the extra-legal love affairs.

NOISES
 COST BRITISH
 MUCH MONEY

LONDON. Jan. 5.--Jazz and other pesky noises cost Britain more than ( 100000 weekly, says Professor II. J. Spooner. an authority on Industrial fatigue.
 ''I estimate the aggregate econ omic loss in this country due to impairment of working capacity owing to noise at more than one million pounds every seven days" i" the professor told the Society of Women Musicians. adding: '1rhe loss due to illness and premature death cannot be estimated"
 Professor Spooner referred to jazz bands in the restaurants. quoting this epigram: "Take the din out of dinner and put the rest in restaurants"
 Many persons appear to eu- joy this terrible di1 in the rss- taurants and elsew here to such

 It is pure fallacy to think that if people become so accustomed to noise that they no longer mo- tice it, the nerve orce suffering in any case, the professor averred in his talk favoring public health noise abatement act.
