Twice on the seventy five mile

Blaine was stopped by motorcycle
traffic cops for speeding, and twice
his reporters badge and q guarded
statement Of his mission-that of fol-
lowing clue as to the whereabouts
Of kidnapped Crystal Hathaway
won him permission to continue as
swiftly as Nils Johnson's very fast
sedan could carry him.

Ing story had done away with all
necessity for Harry's doing any pre-
liminary detective work in the neigh
borhood Of Beamish, where the ran

had also caused the reporter to have
stckening doubts of the truth of the
theory upon which he had been work.
ing that Crystal Hathaway, for
neurotic reasons Of her own, has kid
mapped" herself. It was a white
faced. thoroughly frightened boy who
bent low over the steering wheel Fore
ing the car to give every ounce of
its power. Not frightened for his
own safety. but for Crystals. He had
loaded automatic In his pocket, and
grimly hoped that he would have
occasion to use 1t upon the fiend who
had tortured Crystal so that she
screamed. Conjuring up the scene in
the shack BY means of Lon Edwards
story, Harry Blaine saw, in his minds
eye Is the sedan sped through the
night, the girl Of whom he had be-
come genuinely fond struggling in the
grip OF her kidnapper. Saw her free
herself momentarily, heard her
scream torn from her throat in an
agonixing effort to acquaint Lon
Edwards and Grace Storm with her
desperate plight: saw her strike the
gun from the kidnapper's hand, Just
g the fiend's other hand clamped
over her mouth.

Cold sweat was breaking out on his
grim. white face as Harry Blaine
turned the car into the lane that led
to Peter Holidays shack in the
woods. The cabin was q popular re-
treat both summer and winter. Young
Peter Holiday. son of old Peter Holli-
day, publisher of The Stanton Press,
on which Harry worked, spent almost
every weekend there for fishing in
the spring, summer and fall. and
hunting after the season opened in
November. Harry himself had helped
chop the great pile of wood stacked
against the rear wall of the cabin
now.
Harry swerved the car sharply
from the end of the lane toward the
shack, his front bumper striking with
dull report against the wooden
coping of the well. Cursing himself
for q fool not to have killed his
engine in the lane and walked to the
shack, SO that the kidnappers, II they
were still guarding their captive,
might not be warned of his ap-
proach. the reporter tore open the
door of the car. and with drawn and
cooked pistol, ran to the porch.
There was no light in the shack,
no smoke rising from the chimney.
He had remembered to possess him
self Of Nils Johnson's flashlight.
What scenes would it reveal?
Hello! Hello! Open in the name
of the law!"
The boy was too frightened of
what he should find inside that
dark, silent shack to smile at his
melodramatic demand. There was no
answer. After waiting moment, he
shouted urgently. terror making his
voice harsh: "Are you there. Crystal?
Crystal! It's Harry Blaine!'
Next: Fever, delirium and thirst.

Washington. Feb. 4.-South Amer
lea still remains highly competitive
market. European nations are de-
termined to regain what they can of
the proportionate share of South
Americas import trade which they
have lost to US In the past Is years.
Leaving aside the complicated ques-
ton Of tariffs, 1t may be said that
the struggle for this trade in the last
few years has been a case of our
efficient mass production methods
pitted against the cheaper production
costs Of Europe. With better organ
ization and more efficient methods
In Europe the real fight may be yet
to come. A few expensive manufac-
lures are now bearing the export
load which now gives us the largest
share Of imports in this territory.
Brazil Is good example OF the
situation. We have nearly 80 per
cent Of Brazil's import trade, Britain
81, Germany IL and France 6. In
1913 the division stood: Britain Is,
Germany ID. United States Is, and
France 10. The imports of Brazil
now amount to about $40O, 00O, 900 a
year. We took the lead in supplying
them In 1915. but as late as 1922 and
1923 we we're led again by England.
Our principal sales to Brazil are
now automobiles, gasoline and oil,
motion pictures. flour, agricultural
and industrial implements and ma
chinery. barbed wire. hardware,
paints and varnishes, coal and cleo
,rical goods.
Eight years ago we sold Is per cent
Of the automobiles bought in Brazil
and now It's 81 per cent. But we
export less than 70 per cent of the
imported gasoline, whereas we had
nearly all that business once.
Our machine tools and machinery
such as Is used In cotton and sugar
mills runs IS to 20 per cent more

RICHARD DIX
In BREEZY
COMEDY

The Earle's big picture
month" reaches a brilliant
climax this week with The
Love Doctor" starring Richard
Dix and affording a very merry
time. Adapted from THE
Boomerang" q great stage
success, the current picture by
virtue of the synchroniSation
loses nothing in transition to
the screen. Hilarious comedy
from the opening scene to the
final fade-out, 1.-THE Love Doc
tor" is one Of those films that
should not be passed up"
Dix, handsomer, though q
little heavier, is well chosen
for "The Love Doctor" The
story, rather might have been
made TO order for the talented
actor, who makes the most Of
every amusing situation. The
young doctor is established
for business with only one
drawback, there is no business.
A lovely young person arrives
who proves to be a nurse seek
ing a position rather than
medical aid. June Collyer Is
the nurse, who has little to do
except look beautiful, and this
she does to perfection.
The whole affair gets going
with a rush when an effemi-
nate youth escorted by mama"
arrives for treatment and the
doctor with remarkable acu-
men. diagnoses the ailment as
jealousy. The pointers which
that man gives his first case
on how to manage women,
what to do and what not to
do, are bound to tickle the
risibilities Of any and every
one who succeeds in getting
into the Earle this week. Three
rules are worth learning, girls.
The delightful Miss Collyer
turns the tables and with the
doctors own prescription gets
her man, the doctor, of course.
The girl who plays the office
girl gives one of the best char
acter bits of the season, just a
little part, but excellently done.
This reviewer is still chuckling
over her performance. A large
supporting cast is notably cap
able in roles which might all
too easily be CLOSED over.
The subsidiary features are
chosen with the usual discrim-
nation; two comedies, both
highly amusing, and a varied
newSreel rounding out a worth
while program.
The Earle orchestra under
Daniel BreeSkin's direction
presents as overture group of
favorites, which is delight
full. X.

RITA" IN
SECOND WEEK
AT KEITH'S

Rio Rita" romance OF love,
music and laughter, made
RrK-O Keith's the mecca Of
a large portion of amusement
seeking WashingtonianS yester-
day. With the standing room
only sign hung out early in
the afternoon, it looks as If
this colorful attraction is in for
another big week.
Flo Ziegfeld's musical comedy
has furnished the screen q
notable example of his art in
Rio Rita" The story adaptS
itself readily to the possibilities
of picture production and offers
most agreeable entertainment.
A fine story, a touch of humor
here and there to bring the
smiles, and a wealth of Turing
melodies to find a responsive
chord in those who love good
music. Add to this all the
light, color and action of a
ziegfeld production, and you
have the entertaining elements
of Rio Rita"
Bebe Daniels, long a favorite
on the silent screen, reveals
talented acting and a sweet
voice. John BoleS charms us
once more with his vocal
melody and makes quite a hit
in his character portrayal.
Robert Woolsey and Bert
Wheeler are splendid in lighter
roles.
The best of the song num-
bers are You're Always in My
Arms" and Sweetheart, We
Need Each Other" The feature
Is supplemented by newsreel
and a novelty. The music ill.,

hghtful at all times.-H. S.

THRILLS MARX
THIS TIGER
HUNT

Tiger hunting In the. jllngIes
Of India Is more simple than
Il would seem at first blush
One needs only about 100 eie-
plants, 400 elephant attendants,
800 men for odd jobs, and a
shifting population Of camp
followers.
This Is brought home to US
In an effective way in COmdr.
q. M. Dyott's talking picture.
Hunting Tigers in India,
which occupies the screen Mt

throughout the picture, which
takes the audience through q
great part Of India, the gentle
English accents Of Commander
Dyott accompany the film, ex.
planning the screen action and
throwing interesting light on
customs of the hunt.
Although there are interesting
photographs of leaping deer,
elephants sliding down MUD
bankS-like the hippopotami in
The Four Feathers"-and q
racing rhinoceroS, most Of the
thrills are saved for the last,
when the great tiger hunt is
shown.

cede the action in the jungle,

wherein three tigers lie hidden.
The doomed beasts seem to
spring into the camera as the
rifles bring them down. Then
it's all over but the skinning.
Hunting Tigers in India"
was made under the auspices Of
the American Museum of Natu-.
raj History. The photography,
In some instances, is made
quate. For the most part, it Is
very good indeed, considering
the conditions under which
Commander Dyott had to work.
Obviously, the picture was
synchronized with music and
the Doytt monologue after The
hunters returned to civilization.

and amusement for those who
like travel films.
