ROLE ]. FOR T|BBETT IN
 THE PR0D|CAL'
of Carefree Vagabond Singer Plays
 at Capitol Theatre

X In The Prodigal," which opens at the Capitol Theatre tonight, Lawrence Tibbett abandons his crstwhile swashbuckling lines and gay uniforms to appear for the first time in strictly modern role. ! Information is that Metro-Gold- twyn-Mayer, anxious to get away from typical musical comedy plots, selected an original story by Bess Meredyth and Wells Root which centers about the question of dl- vorce in an aristocratic Southern family.
 This in no way deprives music lovers from hearing the Metropoll tan Opera favorite sing, for .- e circumstances of the plot are such as to contrive various episodes in which Tibbett sings a variety o. songs as natural part of the pro ceedings.
 Film Has Unusual Plot
 Tibbett will be seen as a prodi- gal son who has been roaming th- country with band of "hobos." He stops off at his home to see his mother and for the first time becomes acquainted with his broth CTS wife, Antonia Antonia is mis- erably unhappy with her tyrannical husband and is about to elope with former lover. In his attempt to preserve the family integrity. Tib- bett succumbs to the charms of the bewitching Antonia and finds himself in compromising situa- tion. The unraveling of the itu- ation makes for an extremely dra- matic screen plot. 1 z

 Vienna, capital of romance, is brought to the memory of those who knew it in the days of it's glory, and to the imagination of those who know it only in song and story, by the gorgeous all na- tural color picture, "Viennese Nights" which comes to the Coli scum for Sunday and Monday. Seldom has so enthusiastic ap- proval been granted, as that which met this gorgeous creation of Sig mund Romberg and Oscar Ham fnerstein, II. The theme is that of deathlessness of beauty.

 A candid discussion of the pros and cons of the question in the nations papers and maga- zines would result, I admit. It would be embarrassing to be in the nations eye, to have big black headlines jump out at us. People of Alaska claim conser- vation a myth People of Alas ka claim people more important than trees, "What's happening in Alaska" or some editor more original than the rest might use: "POOr fools in Alaska want tC build prcperity and population" or "Alaskans turn down $500 jObs,' Absentee landlord and no profits ask instead 100000 own ners and part profits" We might even have handed to us: "The Worm has turned in Alaska"

Alaska's Timber Situation Reuiewed By 4 Logger

EulUOI He F1S11CIl1ld1l
 Petersburg, Alaska
 Dear Sir:
 I have recently been ask ed by a number of leading citi- zens Why I have not contributed to the Open Forum of The Alas kan on the subject of timber and land in Southeastern Alas ka?
 The reasons are several: A. nong others I am ashamed to say has been the attitude of the very citizens referred to above. These men, men of standing in the community, men whose words carry weight, agree with me. Firstly that Southeastern Alaska would be infinitely bet ter off with our land and tim Der under private ownership, even with government supervi- sion of cutting to prevent waste; Secondly, That there is no con- servatiOn, merely an obstruction of the natural flow of commerce and development with a grave possibility of something worse in the present policy of the Forest Department. Yet these men are either hypocrites, moral towards or lacking proper con- ception of the subject and it's importance.
 They seem to be anxious that I continue to pan the Forest Service Bureau and agitate for timber land for settlers. Some what the attitude of a spectator at a dog fight. But when l ask them to peel off their coats and give the good work a boost, to come out in the open with their support, that is a different mat ter.
 They seem to be under the i'm pression that something dread

Indiana Boy
ArnazeS Mother

"Jimmie's stomach was often upset
and he suffered a lot from colds"
says Mrs. Louis Vaughn, PAT So.
Randolph ST., Indianapolis. "TIe was
feverish and his breath was bad. /
found he was constipated.
''My mother used California Fig
Syrup with us, so / decided to give
Jimmie some. 1t surely surprised me
to see how quickly it stopped his
feverishness, cleared his breath and
tongue, regulated his bowels: made
him strong and energetic boy again"
The quick, safe way to cleanse and
regulate the bowels of bilious, head
achy, constipated children is with
California Fig Syrup. Give it at the
first sign of bad breath, coated
tongue, listlessness or feverishness.
Every child loves IFS rich, fruity
flavor and it acts without gripping or
discomfort. Appetite is increased by
its use; digestion is assisted; weak
stomach and bowels are given tone
and strength.
For fifty years, doctors have en-
dorsed this pure vegetable product.
The genuine is always marked by the
word California. Look for that when
buying or you may get an imitation.

that punishment by isolation take
the place Of physical punishment.
A separate reformatcry for

mended. At that time, women of
all ages were sent to the prison,
which was divided into punish
ment and reformatory sections.

VOTE TRADES
HALT CHICAGO
LOOP TRAFFIC
Charges Ranging From
Graft to LunaCy. Shouted
by Thompson and Lyle.
By United Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, FEB. 10. - Voices
of confident candidates doomed
throughout the loop today as
charges ranging from graft to
lunacy were shouted from theater
to theater.
Unusually important because the
primary winner viii be the Repub-
lican choice for mayor during the
Century of Progress exposition in
1888, and spectacular because of
bitter personal attacks by William
Hale Thompson and John H. Lyle,
the campaign today assumed a
seriousness of purpose lost earlier
in the sensationalism of the can
didates.
In addresses broadcast by loud
speakers through the loop, Mayor
Thompson continued referring to
that nutty judge" and mis- "jackass
show" at the Cort theater went on.
Judge Lyle still returned the "com-
pliments" in kind.
But for the most part both can
didates and third opponent, Al
derman Arthur F. Albert, turned
to more serious discussion of the
issues.
Traffic was halted at noon
Wednesday while thousands of loop
workers stood in the streets, listen
ing to the candidates assail each
other through the air and each
candidate had from three to five
such meetings scheduled for today.
While the candidates were speak
ing, group Of lawyers met in an
other theater and condemned Lyle
for using "high-handed and bur-
leSque" methods on the bench.
Lyle, in turn, condemned them,
charging that all were members of
the Thompson machine" and sup
ported the mayor because it was
profitable for them to do So"
