DRESS PARADE" NOW
 SHOWING AT COLISEUM

The main fight sequence of Will liam Boyd's star picture, Dress Parade" a splendid Pathe-DeMille Special, which was filmed at the U. s. Military Academy at West Point, under the supervision of Donald Crisp, was photographed on the historical Revolutionary War Site, Fort Putnam.
 The old Fort was constructed under the guidance of General Putnam, in TIT and it seems na- tural that this place should be the site where the various differences between the Cadets are adjusted by force of arms.
 The fight was between William Boyd, the star of the picture and Hugh Allan, who is his rival in the suit of both for the hand of the Commandant's daughter, played by Bessie Love. The cameras were all set and Director Crisp kdNC llC NOAu lO otiOOt. AllGI number of feet of film was shot, MT. Crisp called halt and pro- ceeded to demonstrate how a real fight should be fought. MT. Crisp was an amateur boxer for many years and in his prime he knocked down Kid Mccoy in a friendly amateur fight. Under his guid- ance the fight of Boyd and Allan progressed according to Queens bury rules.
 Bessie Love plays the feminine role opposite William Boyd, in Dress Parade" which is at the Coliseum for the last time to- night. Others in the cast are Hugh Allan, Louis Natheaux, Clar- ence Geldert and Maurice Ryan.

ing Placed on Church by
Maryland Pastor

Dcs Moines. Iowa. Oct. l6.-lH,-
The Rev. w. Howard Bishop of
Clarksville, Md. today told the Cath
Ollie rural life conference that The
most fundamental and far-reachins
needs Of u farm people today arc
educational needs" Virtually all OF
the farmers problems, he said, can
be solved by education.
Upon the shoulders Of the church
he placed the responsibility Of this
education. which he termed q ncces-
sary forerunner to adoption of the
federal farm boards proposed farm
relief program.
Calling attention to the federal
farm program. Rev. Bishop pointed
out that 1t necessitated an organized
farm population. which. he said, Is de-
pendent on cooperation. He called
upon farmers to put aside their in
tense individualism and their distrust
of n another" as a means to accom-
plish the cooperative program.
The farmer. he said. must be edu-
Gated before he will become "organi-
cation minded and cooperative mind
ed" What institution" he asked,
can give more effective aid toward
this end than the church. which
teaches brotherly love and self dis
cipline for the common good and ul-
timately for our own good?"
Speaking Of the temporal needs OF
the farmer. Rev. Bishop said vast
resources for self improvement are
offered to the farmer and the farm
family in the educational programs
of the extension services of our state
universities. The best experts In the
land are constantly ct the service OF
I'll farmers for the mere asking. The
county agent and the home demoal-
stration agent arc ready ct his beck
and CALL"
There are perhaps few In each
community who seize upon every such
advantage that Is offered to improve
their farming and their home plant
he added. But I fear . good major
ity make little or no response ct all.
Among the large class Of tenant farm
ers. particularly. little thought Of i'm
proyement through such methods Il
ever entertained. The most haphaz-
ard and INDECENT OF all. they IRE at
the same time the most difficult to
help to better their conditions"
