CAPITOL THEATRE

The difficulties encountered by div
ers in trying to reach the lower
depths are forcibly presented in Col
umbia's mighty drama Of the sea, en-
titled Submarine" The picture in
one Of its most thrilling moments
shows several divers trying to reach q
wrecked submarine embedded 400 feet
below the surface. At 200 feet the
pressure overcomeS one. He loses
consciousness and bleeds at the
mouth. Through the window in his
helmet the audience is allowed to see
the mans face as he descends. The
effect is highly dramatic.
The precaution taken to prevent
injury to the man is shown. He is
raised slowly to allow the body to
adjust itself to the pressure, then
upon reaching the surface Is placed
In a compression chamber until 1t
Is safe for him to come out into the
natural air. One of these chambers
Is shown in Submarine" which is
coming to the Capitol Theatre to-
night. 1t resembles huge white tub
with door at one end. The pressure
and air within the tank regulated
from without and registered by me-
tiers.
The most exciting moment shows
Jack Holt descending the full depth
Of 400 feet few yards at q time to
allow him to get used to the pressure.
The audience sees the heavy boots
weighing twenty -four pounds
pounds Of lead forming the soles Of
each. These weights carry the diver
down and tend to overcome the
huoyance of the water.

TURNDOWNOFFERS
TO STICK TO STATE
Students Prefer to Advance
Agricultural interests at
Home; Teachers Needed

Three promising positions with out
of-state agricultural interests were
turned down recently by North Da-
kota Agricultural college students.
They contend that North Dakota
holds more in store for them.
The requests came to DR.. H. L..
Walster, dean Of the school of agri-
culture, for men trained to fill such
jobs as manager Of a four-section
farm In Minnesota; assistant man.
ager Of a 20,O0O-acre Shorthorn ranch
In the upper peninsula OF Michigan.
and position as graduate assistant
ship in corn production work on the
Kellogg farm Of the Michigan State
college.
Within the state the demand for
teachers of vocational agriculture in
the Smith-Hughes systems in the
high schools will require more long
course graduates In the future than
the number Of men now maioring in
agricultural education. This demand
Will continue, for within five years
the number Of high schools having
ASAA-AAA9AAC0 vVV&tAOk101 G4kIlCultuIAl
departments will be greatly increased,
owing to the recent passage of the
George -Menges-Reed vocational agri-
cultural bill by congress. During the
past year there were only half enough
qualified graduates to supply the
needs IN Smith Hughes schools in the
state.
The newer developments in mar
keting are creating a large demand
for men trained in the grading of all
types of farm products, as well as in
the business side of marketing, ac-
cording to Dean Walster. The spread
OF the dairy industry, with a large
number of new cooperative cream
cries being established, is another
opening of great promise to school
OF agriculture graduates.

THOUSAND BANKERS
OF VALLEY STATES
TO SIT IN CHICAGO
Problems Originating Out o,
Changes IN the Last Ten
Years to Be Studied

More than 1000 bankers, repre-.
senting 1900 banks in the 20 states
OF the Mississippi valley. will discuss
the vital problems Of their business,
In Chicago. March % and %. Dur
Ing the last 10 years, banks in larger
centers have been participants in the
general prosperity Of the country. but
country banks in q great many com
munities have shared the adverse
conditions affecting agriculture" said
Craig b. Hazlewood. president Of the
American Bankers association and
vice president Of the First National
bank of Chicago, in announcing the
program for the Mississippi valley
conference on commercial bank man.
agement. This conference will be
held under the auspices OF the clear
inghousc section Of the American
Bankers association. and will be at
tended by bankers In the territory
from the lakes to the gulf, and from
Ohio to the Dakotas.
Nature Of Banking Chansed
THE economic changes in the past
decade have developed q new con-
ception Of the functions Of I bank" "
declared Mr.. Hazlewood. Instead OF
being merely safe place to keep
money, make loans, and buy bonds.
the modern bank has become one Of
the most important agencies Of mod
ern business. Striking changes have
come In banking in recent years.
The shifting of world gold supplies,
the rapidly increasing wealth Of the
American people. land speculation,
the growing tendency for business
concerns to finance their operations
through sales of stock, the entry Of
corporations into the call loan mar
ket-theSe are some of the economic
problems which have affected Amer
lean banking and which must be rec
ognized by every banker who would
keep pace with the times. Mounting
costs OF operation, lowered margins
Of profits. increased competition and
the broadening scope of services Of
the modern bank have made bank
management infinitely more difficult
than 1t was before the war. The
banker who would combine safety
and profit in the operation Of his
bank must be thoroughly conversant
both with important economic factors
and the principles of modern bank
ing practice.
First Conference Of Kind
This conference, which is the first
Of its kind" Mr.. Hazlewood con-
tinued, will provide the banker with
information Of practical value to him
In the operation Of his bank. There
will be addresses and discussions on
such subjects as loan administration,
profit and loss operations, secondary
reserves and security buying. person.
mel administration, group and chain
banking, clearinghouse, and other
phases of bank administration.
1.-THE bankers at this conference
will have an opportunity to ask ques-
tions and get answers. Successful
country bankers, state banking COM
missioners and experts in every
branch Of bank management will be
represented on the program. Because
Of the practical nature of the con-
ference, social and entertainment
features will be given q minor place."

"Gct me some water-Quick!" Ruth
first on her feet and first to reach
the side of the unconscious scrub
woman, commanded Jack Hayward
who had stepped into Borden's office
just as that terrible scream had
broken on its ultimate high note OF
horror.
Whats happened to poor old
Letty?" Jack asked, as he sprang to
obey.
I'm afraid she's hurt her head
against my chair in falling" Ruth
answered. "I'll see If it's cut"
And to the amazed horror of every
one in the room, the girl belied the
tender compassion in her voice by
giving q sudden, hard jerk at the
dank gray hair that hung in wisps
about the ashen-pale face of the
woman on the floor.
"Ruth!" Jack Hayward cried out
angrily.
The girl did not appear to have
heard. Her small hand gave another
tug at the gray hair, SO sharp that
the woman's scalp seemed to have
been torn off. Ruth cast the thing
from her and Immediately after it
went the cheap, steel-rimmed spec
tacles that had shielded eyes now
closed in merciful Inconsistencies.
MY God! Martha Manning!"
1t was McMann who voiced the
identification, his flinty gray eyes
wide open at last and staring incred-
uously at the small, aristocratic head,
wrapped tightly with smooth bands
of fine, black hair.
"Yes, Martha Manning! Didn't you
known" Ruth answered, but ther.
was no triumph in her voice-only
infinite pity. "Give me the water.
Jack. -. Thanks! Her poor head Is
hurt. There's q great lump swell

But how did you know?" McMann
demanded with angry bewilderment.
Ruth did not answer until her COM
passionate fingers had dipped into the
glass and dabbled cold water upon
the death-like face now pillowed
against her arm. Then. with her free
hand, she reached into the pocket
Of her smart little brown velveteen
frock and drew out the tightly folded
sheets upon which she had written
what Birdwell had called her serial
story" earlier that afternoon.
