AT THE START
You May Pay IF You Don't

When you realize that about 300
of all sickness begins with constipa-
ton, you won't want to take chances.
If you have the symptoms - bad
breath, coated tongue, always tired
put a stop to them now!
But do it the natural way. Not
with pills and drugs, which give
but temporary relief and must be
taken in increasing doses. Eat

ing deliciously favored cereal.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN sweeps the
system clean of wastes and impuri-
ties. Its action il natural; the
roughage carries with it the poisons
which clog your system.
In addition, ALL-BRAN Is rich
in iron. Scientific research shows
that nearly all this iron goes into
the blood, making it give the rich
glow Of healthy color.
You'll like ALL-BRAN. Ready
to-eat with milk or cream-fruits or

mend it. And we guarantee 1t to
relieve both temporary and recur-

LIONS GET REPORT
 0N FROLIC PROFIT
S7o0, Partly Distributed to
 Children, Realized On Show

A profit of approximately s700 was made on the Lions frolic last Feb ruary, according to reports made at the luncheon of the Lions club to- day at the Burritt hotel.
 The sum has been partially dis tributed to the klngberg home, the Swedish orphanage at Cromwell, the Polish orphanage, the Newington Home for Crippled Children, and an orphanage in Avon, s250; for glasses for needy school children, S2OO. The balance remains undis- tributed pending the final settlement of the affair.
 Dissatisfaction with the last frolic, acknowledged sub rosa by Lions club members for some time, was expressed publicly during a general discussion today, and it was unani- mously conceded that the next affair will be a great deal less complicated.
 Francis P. McGauley, who presid- ed in the absence of the newly elect ed president, James E. O'Brien, of fered a suggestion which members have had under advisement for sev- eral weeks. He recommended that the club have a series of Is or 16 boxing matches throughout the year, forming for the purpose of consider ing advisable an auxiliary organiza- tion to be known as The Lions Athletic association"
 The suggestion met with popular approval, but no definite action was taken.

AT THE EMBASSY

Fannie Brice, star of the United Artists all-talking, all-singing pie ture, 'Be Yourself" directed by Thorntoh Freeland, at the Embassy theater tomorrow. discovered during the production of the feature that she was being paid good money for doing something that she formerly had to pay to have done.
 This is the life for me" com mented Miss Brice. 'The first thing that impressed me about motion pictures was the fact that the producers pay you for having your picture taken.
 Tn all my years of vaudeville I've had to pay neat sums for the privilege of sitting for a photogra- pher. Now they pay me good money for the pleasure"
 The famous story which has been a novel, a play and a musical show under the title The Lady in Ermine" has become motion pie ture as Bride of the Regiment" It is to open it's local run at the Emba ssy theater starting tomorrow

AT THE STRAND

A compelling and extremely nov Ing narrative of the effects of prison environment on a young boy is told in "The Big House." now playing at the Strand theater.
 George Hill, the director, achieved a masterful touch in playing a searchlight on the devastating aspects of contact with hardened criminals, the illustration of con- flnement and the pathetic separa- ton of the boy from the girl he loves.
 Using powerfully staged peni- tentiary riot as the climax of the story, the director has built up a series of episodes which hold the attention from the first moment to the last and leave one at the con- clusion of the picture with plenty of food for thought
 One of the outstanding things in the picture is the manner in which the love interest is worked in. It was said for years that a prison picture couldn't be made because one couldn't introduce woman into it. How Miss Marion and George Hill, who directed the pie ture, got around that was remark able.
 On this same bill. Laurel and Hardy in "Hay-Wire."

 fore Doors Swing Open

Change for a dime" was the cry local chain store yesterday, an em- barrassment which lasted through out the entire day.
 A customer entered the store al- most simultaneously with the open ing for the days business. She made five cent purchase, and offered a dime in payment.
 Change had not yet been distribut- ed to the cash registers The sales girl called Manager Ray c. Young, for Nange. He did not have two nickels so turned to the safe.
 Thesafe was so safe it wouldn't open. The correct and series of incorrect combinations evoked no re- sponse. That nickel was as safe as the safe. Some one found the cus- toner's change and the manager sent for help.
 A local safe expert arrived with drills, chisels. hammer, torch and whatever it is the perfectly honest safe breakers use. He worked for three or four hours, but the safe still remained unopened. The mana ger called Elmer, w. Pape. presi- dent of the Adkins Printing Co.
 At 4:15 o'clock yesterday after noon, Mir. Pape, coat off and sleeves rolled up, was prespiring over the stubborn safe.
 A customer purchased 10 cent ] Young and Pape.
 Just before the doors were locked at the close of the day business, MT. Pape heaved sigh of relief and the safe door swung open.
