 The puzzle about Greta Garbo's next picture grows more compli- cated each day.
 Metro Goldwyn- Mayer now has bought Inspiration" an original story by James Forbes, and is con- sidering it as a vehicle for the Swedish star.
 The choice lies, to date, between Red Dust" a story that has been in possession of the company for some time; "Matahari," play re- gently purchased from Barney" Glazer, and Inspiration or, it may be something else entirely.
 Finding a part for Greta pre- sents obvious difficulties. More Eover, in her case, the studio is not satisfied with mediocre success, ] as it might be with other stars. LGreta must be sensational or noth- ing.
 Incidentally, the theatre men are putting up bitter fight here against the proposal. They point to the fact that when daylight sav- ! ing first went into effect in New York, there was a 30 per cent drop in box-office receipts.
 l The theory is that when it does not get dark until around g o'clock, the average. man will butter around the house until too late to start i for the theatre.

BY Times Special
VALPARAISO, Feb 17-Modern
Woodmen lodge members of this
city plan to protect their fraternal
rights.
The lodge has voted to finance
an appeal from Lake circuit court
concerning Judge E. Miles Norton's
decision in case of Mrs. Glare Phil
lips of Valparaiso, against Modern
Woodmen lodge, James Phillips and
Rose Stevens of Hobart.
Norton held an insurance policy
of $4,000 on Alva M. Phillips, who
died recently, should be paid to his
second wife, Mrs. Clara Phillips,
instead Of Phillips children, basing
his ruling on pre-nuptial contract
between Phillips and his second
wife.
Lodge officials contend the pre-
nuptial contract not binding because
of a clause in the policy rendering
null and void any change in
beneficiary based on contract.
Woodmen officials say they will
carry the case to the highest
courts, if necessary.
