MYSTERY MOVIE
NOW AT CIRCLE

S. S. Van Dimes popular mystery
story, "The Canary Murder Case"
opened at the Circle today in pic
ture form with William Powell play
ing the important role of Philo
Vance, criminologist and amateur
sleuth. It is another Paramount
all-talker and, like others from the
lots of this producer, shows marked
Improvement over its predecessors.
Powell is supported by such stars
as Louise Brooks, James Hall and
Jean Arthur. The story has be-
come quite familiar since the popu-
lar edition is now considered one
of the best sellers, particularly in
indianapolis, according to reports
from stores here.
Miss Brooks plays the part of the
Canary" a beautiful New York
chorus girl, who has no Scruples in
employing her charm for the pur-
pose of ensnaring millionaire vic
Tins.
She soon tires of mere money,
and all that goes with it, however,
and decides that she wants to
marry one of New York's most
aristocratic sons.
When she is refused, she resorts
to blackmail and it is shortly after
making demands from her list of
victims that the murder occurs.
Her death, however, is the result
of such a carefully devised scheme
that it nnystifies everyone.
It is then that Philo Vance gets
in his work which is very refresh
ing because of it's freedom from
slapstick detective methods more
commonly employed in pictures of
this character. Following situations
are very interesting ard make of
this one of the best taking pic
lures thus far produced.
Dessa Byrd plays an organ solo
and the bill also includes talking
novelties and a sound news reel.

F. 4. WALDO IS BACK
FROM CONVENTION
Kiwanians Had Big Time, He
Says; Reduced Charter
Member Minimum

F. H. Waldo is back from Mil
waukee, where he went to represent
the Bismarck Kiwanis club at the in
ternational convention. He said the
weather was fine and comfortable
during his stay, there was a large at
tendance Of social delegates, and the
social features were SO generous that
they did not provide time for sleep.
One Of the most important actions
of the meeting was the reduction
from IS to Is of the minimum of
membership to form a club. The limit
of IS has operated against the forma-
ton of clubs in many localities, no.
tably in this section. The Lions, with
a minimum of 20 charter members,
showed that it was possible to organ
ize the smaller communities well, and
the Kiwanis International decided to
adopt a smaller minimum also.
MI. Waldo said North Dakota was
split on the next place of meeting.
Some were for Miami and others for
the winning Atlantic City. He himself
was unable to be present when the Sc
lection came up, SO he paired his
choice of Atlantic City with the Mi
not delegate. who was for Miami.
A full report of the convention will
be made to the club next Thursday by
the delegate.

CUSTER hangs over
REGISTER OF DEEDS
IN MORTON COUNTY
Question Of Collection Of Fees

crux Of Dispute

Possibility that James T. McGilllc,

yanced here today by Harold Hopton.
manager Of he state bonding depart
nent.
In the report of an examination Of
The registers office. filed by the state
oank examiner with Governor George
F. Shafer. it is stated that McGill!c
aas failed to turn over to the county
fees collected by his office. McGil-
.ic. Hopton said. claims that the fees
are rightfully due him as register
If deeds and a court action may
determine the question.
The examiners report shows a
shortage of $3.50 in 1925; $l85 in 1927,
and $235 in 1923.
In addition. the examiner found,
the International Harvester company
had paid McGillic SLIT for credit in
formation from 1927 to 1920. In
addition, the examiner said, other
companies bought credit information
but the amount paid was not learned.
The law provides that elevators
may apply for abstracts of all mort
cages and liens on grains grown in
the county and establishes the fee to
be charged. 1t provides that such APP
piicaticns shall be made before June
! Of each year. The law specifically
states that the fees are to be turned
over to the county.
McGillic contends, however, that
fees collected from firms requesting
this information after June l are his
own. HOptcn said. and therein lies the
difficulty. He said the bonding de-
partment wants a decision OH the
question. as a guide TO handling SINH
lar cases which may arise elsewhere
throughout the state.
In an opinion to the bonding de-
partment, Attorney General Jim
Morris held that all fees collected by
the register of deeds must be turned
yer to the county.

Pension Bank Plans
Made for Veterans

London = R) The ministry Of
pensions is considering a scheme
whereby. the government would
"bank" war pensions, at a request
of the pensioner, instead of paying
them and leaving it to the recipient
to invest the money if he has no inn
mediate need for it.
In explaining the plan in the
House of Commons, Major G.. c.
Tryon, minister Of pensions, said
the greater majority of pensioners
are working at full wages.
"They cam" he said, "and in many
cases do, save the pension; but or
binary methods Of saving do not
always meet their needs"
If adopted, the "pension bank
will allow money to pile up in the
hands of the government, drawing
compound interest, until such time
IS the pensioner needs it for the
purchase Of a home, education of
his children. or to add to his monthly
income in later years.
