PARTLY GOOD Or BAD

While taking the hide Off a
Washington police captain in the
Senate the brilliant and caustic SEN
ator from Arkansas, Caraway, re-
marked: "Men are not honest and
dishonest in spots. They are either
honest or they are dishonest"
That is an interesting and arrest
ing statement. 1t sounds plausible,
but it is not entirely accurate. A
man is neither all good nor all bad.
He is different from anegg in that
respect. He is more like a book or
poem which may have a few poor
pages or a weak verse or two yet
still be good on the whole. He is
more like song that may be better
in the high notes than in the low
ones, or the contrary. The most
truthful man has told him little lie
one time or another, and the biggest
liar has occasionally told the truth.
No man is so honest that he would
not quickly remove his feet from
the nice furniture upon hearing his
wife approaching. In fact, we are
mixtures of good and bad-all of us,
even senators. And our conviction
in the matter will be firm until we
see senator vote on conscientious
grounds against an appropriation
for his state, or against a pension
for one of his constituents.-The
Pathfinder.

MARRIAGE SAFEGUARD is
THEME OF NEW FILM
"Marriage BY Contract" to Play At
Reese Theatre, Harrington, We'd
uesday and Thursday, March 1928

Arguing that the old-fashioned
marriage, founded on love, respect
and mutual forbearance has more
safeguards for woman than the So
called companionate or trial mar
riage for a limited period, MAR
riage by Contract" the John M.
Stahl special production for Tiffany
Stahl which plays the Reese Theatre
at Harrington on Wednesday and
Thursday, March 81 and %, will no
doubt stir up many an argument.
Beginning with her first compan-
ionate marriage, as a girl Of twenty,
to a young man-resulting in a bro
ken contract after three weeks be-
cause of her unreasonable anger at
his too literal Interpretation of the
personal freedom clause in their
contract-through her next three
trial marriages to the amazing and
unexpected climax, Edward Clark,
the story's author, is said to have
put forth some most interesting
ideas. It is declared that even those
advocates of more elasticity and
freedom in marriage will have to adj
nit that Clark's choice of episodes
reveals serious flaws in the social
ed modern union.
The featured players are Patsy
Ruth Miller and Lawrence Gray and
the cast also includes such notables
as Robert Edeson, Ruby Lafayette,
Shirley Palmer, Ralph Emerson and
RAYMOND Keane.

$3,746,O55 TO RUN
STATE NEXT z YEARS
[Continn<d from fri paae1

decreases by $1O,62O the total
amount recommended by former
Governor Robinson in his budget
bill for the first year and increases
| by $13,2S0 his recommendation for
the second year or a total increase
for the two years over that recon-
mended by Governor Robinson of
$266O.
The amount of this bill is $685.
2S1.02 in excess of the budget bill
passed two years ago. This increase
is made up largely through increas-
es granted to state institutions and
state departments made necessary
by the growth of those institutions
and departments. The substitute
bill does not change materially the
figures in the Robinson budget bill,
it having been the policy of the bud
get committee to adhere as near as
advisable to the recommendations in
the Robinson bill.
The total appropriations in the
substitute bill which was reported
from the House appropriations COM
mittee of which Representative Hyn-
son is chairman for the first year
ending June 30, 1880, is $1,S35, 144.17
and for the second year $1,912,9 11.67
The principal reason for the in
crease for the second year is the
fact that the expenses of the 1881
session of the Legislature are pro-
vided for that year.

may not prove uninteresting in view
of the announcement that "a Wo-
man of Affairs" now is launched
upon its career as vehicle for en-
tertainment, and will be presented
in this city.
In author, stars, cast and direc-
tor it is obvious that the makers of
this film did not have in mind any
ordinary program feature. They
were out to catch the public fancy,
with every facility at their COM
mand, as indeed was frankly adj
mitted.
That they did not care to rest
their bid for applause merely upon
the admittedly unusual public cur
iosity with regard to Gilbert and
Miss Carlo, not only with reference
to their romantic juxtaposition be-
fore the camera, but also as regards
their attitude towards one another
i'll private life, is equally apparent
from the evidences of care with
which the other ingredients of the
picture were mingled.
In the matter of research alone,
it is reported that Mrs. Natalie
Bucknall, technical expert of the
company spent several months
abroad collecting data for the re-
of scenes in London's
Mayfair, and particularly for a Sc
quence showing an Oxford-Cam-
bridge crew race, which is said to
be one of the charming scenic cpl
sodes of the picture.
1t was added that Brown used an
airplane exclusively on his location
hunts, in order to be back at the
studio every evening for consulta-
ton while the script was being put
in shape by Bess Meredith.
In any event, the facts show that
a maximum of studio energy was ex-
pended in trying to make "a Woman
Of Affairs" as attractive as possible
10 a large public. 1t is the belief
1t the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio,
anyhow, that Gilbert and Miss Carlo
together are the most fascinating
figures of the screen world
ust now.

JOHN GILBERT-GRETA GARBO
IN "A WOMAN OF AFFAIRS"
At New Plaza Theatre Mon, Tues.
And Wed, March 25, 26 And %

Michael Arlen wrote a story some
time ago which was acquired by
Metro Goldwyn-Mayer for picturiza-
ton. Information that came from
the studio from time to time was
that thes intention, at least, was to
make the film something that would
stand out even among photoplays of
the variety which producers have
come to label as Special"
After some months of specula-
ton came word that the decision
was to call this picture "a Woman
Of Affairs" and make it the occasion
for the third appearance together on
the screen of John Gilbert and Greta
Carlo, in whose close-ups, first in
Flesh and the Devil" and then in
Love-" the cinemagoing public
showed a rather more than lively
interest.
Then announcement was made
that Clarence Brown, director of
Flesh and the Devil" would be
the director, and that an exceptional
supporting cast would be assembled.
The cast included Lewis Stone, HO-
bart Bosworth, Dorothy Sebastian,
John Mack Brown and Douglas Fair
banks, Jr.
AS is the case in such instances
in picture-making there was the
added notice that no effort would be
spared, so far as lavishness and
sumptuousness were concerned, to
form a proper background for the
united stars, who have been sig
nally successful individually, and
for the cast, of the sort which gen
orally is referred to as "all-star,"
and the director, of whom it has
been said, that he has had no screen
failures.
This outline of the process of MAX
ing this story ready for the screen

IN MEMoRIAM

In remembrance of our dear father,
James Carlisle, who departed this life,
March 16, 1926.
1t is not death. or. no. tits but a quiet
sleep,
He rests from all turmoils of nfe's
stormy deep;
Our lOVeu one Is not dead,
Redeemed ones never die;
They only take their flight from earth
TO dwell beyond the skies.
Oh, how hard it was to part on earth
with him 1 loved so dear,
The heart no greater trial knows;
No sorrow more severe.
What happy days we once enjoyed,
How sweet their memory is still
But they have left an aching void
This world can never fill.
Leaf by leaf the rose falls.
Soul by soul the Saviour calls
Not one, but for all,
We must go when the roll is called.
Sadly missed by his Daughter, Min

In sad but loving remembrance of oul
dear son. Chalmer L. Gray, who de-
parted this life, March 20, 1928, age 2;
years:
Gone in the best of his days
Blighted in manhood bloom.
Torn from the hearts that loved him
He sleeps in the silent tomb.
We often wish we could have kept you
The vacant chair to fill
But when we stop to think it DER
1t was Gods and not our will.
God knew the sorrow of this world
That for you had in store
And so he took you home with Him
Where sorrow is no more.
Dearly loved and sadly missed by
Mother and Father. tip
