NEW MOON" TO
RUN AT CAPITOL
FINISH TONIGHT
White Shoulders for Mid
night Matinee and To-
morrow Night

New Moon" with lawrence Tib-
bett and Grace Moore in the lead
ing roles, will be shown for the
last times tonight at the Capitol
theatre. "One of the Smiths" fea-
turing Charley Chase, is an added
attraction.
White Shoulders" starring Mary
Aston, Jack Holt and Ricardo Cor
tez, which will headline the new
program tomorrow, will be given
at the preview matinee at l o'clock
tonight.
New Moon" besides offering
vocal selections by it's two grand
opera stars, Tibbett and Miss
Moore, tells a story of love, in
trigue and adventure in colorful
Turkestan which never lets up
in interest from its spectacular
opening aboard a Russian steamer,
to the exciting concluding sequen-
ces in which an attack of Riffs is
quelled.
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1931-12-21

''One of the Smiths" concerns
musical instruments, stills, hill-bil-
lies and an irate conductor. The
four of them cause Charley Chase
much agitation, but Charley is at
his funniest when tangled in
complicated situations.
white Shoulders" directed by
Mel Brown, moves through the
glamorous settings of New York's
upper crust to the Riviera and
other fashionable Continental re-
sorts, and to South America in
procession of dramatic episodes
Throughout runs the Rex Beach
type of omance-hard-h hitting and
favored with action every step
of the way.
White Shoulders" tells the story
of beautiful chorus girl who
searches for love rather than lux
ury, and believes she finds it in
Gordon Kent, a multi-millionaire
who thinks he can give her both.
Kent's ideas of love are primitive
and adorned with diamonds. The
girl rapidly finds disillusion and
tries to escape through the love
of friend of Kents. The subse-
quent drama, it is said, twists the
tail of standard film plots to give
new punch to the situation which
makes it highly realistic.
The supporting cast includes
Kitty Kelly and Sidney Toler.

Big business had more to do with
prohibition enforcement today than
any other agency, Ford said, be-
cause business began to require
sobriety among employees before
prohibition was thought possible.

replied as follows:

has shown that tobacco slows up
the r~eflexes of the athletes, lowers
their moral and does nothing con-
structive.
Athletes who smoke are the
careless type and do not have the
best interests of the team at
heart"

OVERWEIGHT


NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
A good many people seem in
perfect health, feel no distress,
and yet realize that they are car
rying around a lot of ballast that
does them no good. 1t isn't a very
alluring prospect, when a fellow
gets into the sixties, with from fif-
ty to a hundred pounds of adipose
tucked under his skin, for which
he has not the remotest use.
Just to be brief, two major
causes of overweight will be CON
sidered here: Lack of exercise, and
overeating of starches. Formerly 1
would have mentioned gluttony;
but I have seen many people over
fat who were really very spare
eaters. OF course heavy fluid drink
ing with meals will facilitate alb
sorption and have considerable to
do with bodily weight. l ask such
patients to limit or cut out drink
ing with meals. and some have
reduced much by strictly follow
ing directions.
I direct my fat patients to limit
STARCHES in the dietary; "one

yisioned tables will be found one

These starchas tax the liver;
what the liver cannot care for
properly is slowed somewhere,
making the body weight slowly
creep upward. The liver is a
oeaceable organ and will bear
