"THE, ROAD TO RtEN'

The picture is very frank in it's treatment of it's subject. This is necessary to be effective and at the same time it is not overdraWn. The characters on the screen enact a story the parallel of which is pub liShed in the newspapers almost every day.
 It has the faculty Of opening the eyes of parents to modern cOndi- ,lOns and the experience of the fam lily, around which the tragic story evolves should go far to create a better understanding between moth CT and daughter on matters relative to sex.
 ''The Road to Ruin" deals more particularly with a pretty blonde high school girl. The merry capers ct this youngster with her boy friends in the early part of the story furnishing contract to the tragic experience to follow.
 She believes herself in love with a young shaik and this leads to drink ing parties and general wild esca- pades. There is a strip poker game that leaves very little to the imag inatiOn, while the causes leading to the girls death are plainly outlined.

Japan Says Level of
 Naval Farley Too High

Tokyo, Sept. 2S CP-It is learned here that the Japanese government through Ambassador Matsuidara in London and Ambassador Debuchi in Washington has informed Great Britain and the United States of it's belief that the level at which Anglo American cruiser parity has been tentatively fixed is so high that it will compel other nations to enlarge their fleets instead of reducing them.
 It is understood that Tokyo au- thorities have expressed the earnest desire that Anglo parity,

 The Sells-Floto management is paying the screen star and his beau tiful chestnut horse the highest weekly stipend ever paid to any single circus feature. md Mix not only does some of his famous wit1 west stuff at every performance but also puts Tony thro, yh some of the paces that made the horse the most popular animal in the United States.
 Tom Mix is known wherever the civilized tongue is spoken. and the adult and the youth of the land have never tired of speaking words of fulsome praise for his ability to entertain on the screen. But seeing him in animated adventure on the silver sheet does not give one half the thrill that the public gets in Tom appears Tony will be with him. The two are inseparable.

 For herself, Nan was fiercely glad that the food was meager and no: too good; it made her eating or It less of a crime somehow, for it was shameful to break bread with a woman whom she hated ana whose husband she loved. But for John Curtis Morgan Nan felt a ho, surge of angry pain.

Now that she found herself there she was tasting to the fuir the horror of the realization that had come upon her the night pe- fore.

The most complete mining in- vestigations ever made in a single season in Alaska is now under way in the interior and northern section of the Territory. it is made known in the Juneau Elm pire. Three engineers-N. L. Wimmler, Irving McK. Reed, and Earl Pilgrim, former professor of Mining at the Alaska College, are making the studies.

 7 When he finishes there, he will cover all of the mining areas di- rectly adjacent to The Alaska Railroad
 NIT. Reed has covered the Fair banks district After that he went into the Koyukuk region, making the first examinations that has been conducted there in several years. He used a plane in travel ing between Koyukuk and Fair banks and shortened the time re- quired by several weeks.
 He will leave Fairbanks by plane for Seward Peninsula. He will cover that section as far north as Candle, unless prevented by abnormal weather conditions. He returns via Tacotna, covering the Innoko and Ohpir areas.
