presented out of the abundance of its
natural phenomena, more and more IA
cilities for public. comfort and pleasure
have been provided. Its widely increas-
ing popularity has been attested by un-
precedented travel. This has been its
most successful year in every field of
activity, according to official reports re-
Gently compiled.
The total travel was 230,934 persons
as compared with 200, 1926 last year, the
previous high record. There was an in
crease of 80, 159 or about is per cent
over the record figures of last year.

eighty-two visitors arrived prior to June
20, the official opening date, as compared

was snowfall on Jun IT exceeding c
inches in depth. 1t is the only June OF

Stickers are banned from auto
mobile windshields and windows

ter, card, sticker or other non

ests of public safety, pointing out

ELECTRIC USAGE sTR1DING

The year 1927 might be called a
magical extension era of new and
greater uses of electricity-the sill
ent indescribable current making
the outstanding contribution TO the
progress of industry, commerce
and transportation,
Giant generators produce great
er power than ever before; milea-
minute railroad ears; electric steel
mills, controlled and operated by
one man-these are among the a.
chievements of 1927.
The worlds largest searchlight
of 1,3S0,000,000 candlepower
thrown from a distance of three
miles illuminated Monticello, the
old Thomas Jefferson home.
America has marched in advance
Of all nations in developing new
and greater uses for the electric
current.

CAPITOL THEATRE

H
Does your young daughter drink :?
smoke pet?
OF course not. You have never
seen her do any Of those things. You
need not worry about the wildness
of the present day youth, which is
puzzling educators and police Of
ficials throughout the country. The
fact that $4,000 girls were reported
missing in the past year does not
cause you anxiety, for your daugh-
ter is safe.
You surround her with wholesome
home environment, she goes to choir
practice and to church, and you give
her everything to make her happy.
Your daughter would never run
away.
But
It is in just these conditions that
your young girls disappear, many of
them from exclusive colleges and in
"The Port Of Missing Girls" this
situation is pictured. Ruth King is
the daughter Of wealthy lawyer,
her mother is prominent in philan-
thropic and social welfare work, and
Ruth is reared in ideal surroundings
and associates with young girls Of
similar station in life. In spite Of
this, she becomes entangled in q web
which causes her to disappear.
Her parents are shocked and
grief stricken when their daughter
becomes one Of the great host Of
missing girls, and her rescue is the
sensational climax Of the picture.
"The Port Of Missing Girls" is
being shown at the Capitol Theatre
Monday and Tuesday. Matinees at
2:30.
