the plaything of a rich but married
man. Marie Provost, the friend of
Jean, usually is tipping letters and
wise cracking. Miss Harlow poses
too much and seems utterly lost
with the character. It must be
this gals hair, the color, that puts
her over because she doesn't break
any acting records this week.
1t seems that somebody must
have taken mental vacation in
Hollywood while this picture was
being born. 1t sure is a mighty
weak and unsatisfactory vehicle.
Be your own judge. Now at the
Circle.

ham" But-Oh, yes the ending
is a happy one and I for one was
glad that Sally did not marry the
rich guy. But the rich man in
this picture is very much the right
sort.
Dunn does a splendid job at
making the Dragging hoofer very
human. Miss Eilers is just the right
choice as the girl who understands
her dancing partner.
You will meet several interesting
acting types, especially the old actor
who at the age of sixty gave up the
stage to become a night Waterman.
Dunn and Miss Eilers have several
good dance numbers but it is the
human acting during the first half
of the story that makes the movie
so enjoyable.
If you are not fed up with this
type of story, I feel that you will
have lovely time seeing Dance
Team"

note to the talking screen. Here is
glorified melodrama done before a
realistic background. The entire
action is centered in the waiting
room of union station, in the
yards, in room of a cheap depot
hotel. Hundreds of characters are
paraded before you in the station
while they are waiting for trains or
something just as important.
You are chiefly and finally inter-
ested in two marvellous trampS
played by Fairbanks Jr., and Guy
Kibbee and it is the relation of these
tramps to an old guy and degen-
crate, to band of counterfeit
crooks, to the police and to just
ordinary people that makes the pic
ture so wonderful.
You will find some of the most
natural acting on the part of Fair
banks and Joan Blondell, a girl
that Fairbanks picks up.
And when Doug as the hobo is
buying swell gowns and good eats
for his new lady love, you get
very tight feeling in your throat
when the law gets on the trail of
these two youngsters.
I know that grabbed the arms
of my chair when Fairbanks start
ed his fight in the train yards with
the counterfeiting crook. And nearly
all the time the suspense is so great
that Ot1a wants IN oof,1oII1y x,a11 o,,+
and warn Doug and the others.
And there is lot of wise crack
ing as well as melodrama in Union
Depot" Believe me, here is one of
the grandest hour and something
Of theater I have ever encountered.
To me it becomes one of the ten
best pictures ever made. And that
is saying something.
Now at the Indiana.

Nice Doggie

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. Is
Cornelius Vanderbilt Jr. had
a police dog, two overcoats and
an automobile when he came
to Washington Sunday.
When he left Washington
later in the day he still had his
car, but no overcoats and no
dog.
Whether the dog ran off with
the coats could not be deter
mined. Vanderbilt parked at
the Mayhower hotel, and left
the dog with the coats. When
he came out again, dog and
coats were gone.

back Of the head; another daughter,
Miss Nellie C. Adams, escaped with
slight bruises and granddaughter,
Miss Evelyn Adams, driver of the ma
chine, had three deep gashes cut in
the left arm, requiring Is stitches to
close.
The four persons were taken into
the Townsend home and given medical
attention by DR.. F. E. Rosnagle. They
were cared for at the Townsend home
until DR.. Wilson drove here and took
the four to their homes in Cincinnati.
1t is believed that some part of the
steering gear of the machine snapped
as the auto was driven from the high
way to the brick paving on West
High, causing the machine wheels to
lock. The car was badly damaged and
is being held at the Madison County
auto company garage for repairs.
Miss Adams, the driver, is soph-
omore in the Jefferson Medical college
in Philadelphia and the party was en-
route to Columbus for a visit.
Auto-Truck Collision
Three Kentucky residents, one man
and two women, were slightly injured
today when the auto in which they
were riding en- route to Newark, col
lided with a truck on U. S. AZ, four
miles west of London near the How /
ard Watkins farm.
The names of the occupants of the
machine were not learned They left
the machine at the Clelland & Mouser
garage here to be repaired, going to
Newark by bus.

HUGE GRAIN
BINS BUILT
Continued From Page One)


heighth, 90 feet in diameter and will
each hold $4,000 bushels of small
grain
They are built in such manner
that the machinery or elevator equip
ment to fill and empty the bins is
housed in the center of the four bins
with 20-foot bin of smaller size on
top of the four to house the upper
portion of the grain-handling machin-
cry. This gives the plant an overall
height of 100 feet.
The construction required 500 yards
of concrete in which is included 1860
barrels of cement and 1900 tons of
sand and gravel, together with 25
tons of reinforcing steel.
The system of construction used by
Contractor Clemans is most interest
ing, the circular forms for the four
bins and the forms for the center sec
tion being carried with the bins as
they are constructed.
This operation is made possible by
system of steel rods, set in con-
crete at the base, which are carried
along with the bins as they are built
and by means of which lifting jacks
are enabled to lift the small form,
inch by inch, as the building work
progresses.
This sliding form system elimin-
ates the old-style methods whereby a
wooden form, as tall as the planned
structure, was constructed to secure
the necessary size and height
Mr.. Clemans, in speaking of the
work, states that it is possible to pour
as much as from eight to II feet of
concrete each "a hours, since the con-
crete sets rapidly under this type of
construction, permitting faster oper-
alton of the mixing machines.
A solid platform is used on top of
the bins under construction, this
platform being raised by the jacks the
same as the forms are lifted into
place.
Mr.. Clemans, who is regarded as an
expert in his line, has built many
such structures in the middle states
and has just secured a contract for
four bins Of like size and nature for
coal company in Rochester, New
York.
