 Hollywood. Royal Order of Loyal Daughters"
 That, or some similar title should be attached to Hollywood's fomi- nine contingent. Despite the stories one hears about fllmland's tempes. tuous young actresses, a more loyal group of daughters scarcely could be found in any other place in the world.
 Certainly, there has been no dearth of stories regarding dnugh. Hters who revolted against parental discipline in order to get Into the movies. However, it usually turns out that the families experience Il change of view. As soon us the ''wayward" daughter has made good, signed contract and Is | drawing a regular pay check all is forgiven and tho family prompt- ly moves In 10 share in the pro- ceeds.
 Rarely do you find successful actress in Hollywood who Isn't supporting her family--includiny n couple of brothers and sisters with perhaps brother.in-law W thrown in for good measure. 1.upe Supports Whole Family Even Lupe velez, with the repu. tatlon of being the mndcap oi Hollywood, really is a devoted daughter who lives with hel mother and sisters: or perhaps we should say that the family lives with Lupe, since 1t Is Lupes home and she furnishes the chief sup. port for all.

NOvarrO Vehicle
 Is Strand Offering
'tThe Barbarian Opens There Tomorrow
 for 4 Days

Romance of the torrid variety in- terspersed with deloctable comedy sequences make Ramon Novarro's now starring vehicle "The Barbar- ian" one of the screens most en- toyable photoplays. The picture heads the Strands program Sunday to Tuesday evening. It follows all the best traditions of desert drama it's story making tho most or sever- al melodramatic and romantic ln- cidents. It differs however In its dc. cidedly different and comic central situation which introduces Q char acter new to pictures, n phiiander- Ing young Egyptian guide. This ras cal finds that his good looks pay exceedingly well as he takes I'm. questionable women for view of the Pyramids.
 "The Barbarian" was directed by Sam Wood who has permeated ~ with the same fresh humor which made his Marie Dressler talkies SC popular. Myrua Loy makes Q de. iightfui heroine, Reginald Denny ii amusing as her dull.witted Englieh fiance and Louise Closscr Hale givos another of her droll portray. als as the heroine's companion. O. Aubrey Smith, Edward Arnold, Blanche. Frederici. Marcelle Cor. day Hedda Hopper and Leni Sten. gel are uniformly good in lesser roles. :.
 A highlight of the picture ii Novarro's singing of charming Egyptian love song written by Ma cio Herb Brown. composer of "The Pagan Love SonE." ..
 The companion feature Is "l Cover The Waterfront" with Clau. dette Colbert. Ben Lyon and Ernest Terrence in the leading roles. Thii incidentally is the last screen ap. pearance of that beloved character Ernest Terrence, whose recen! death in New York hospital

Fully Novel Makes
 Garden Picture
Tom Mix Appears in Conl- panion Feature, "Hid-
 den Gold"

Laughter in Heli," the latest novel of that great realist, Jim Tuily, who understands human emotions and passions and de- scribes them SO vivldly, has been screened by Universal. This film, which has set a nation talking, comes to the New Garden theater sunday for three day showing It is d picture that sounds the vory depths of humanity. It is powerful--grlppin g-elemental--the kind of picture that reaches out and grips you with its vivid drama. "r4aughtef in Hell" Is all first hand drama, right from the pages of life. You'il never forget the man who loved n girl with all his honest Irish soul, and through her faith fulness found--iaughter in hell-- and another kind of hell in the prison camps in the swamps be- side.
 Pat o'Brien, Merna Kennedy, Gloria Stuart. Berton Churchill, Tom Brown, are all superbly cast in this great human story of min Ing riots and chain gangs. See the picture, then you will realize why flowing such women makes Laugh ter in Helr."
 Tn this day of elections and such, we take this more or less auspict- ous opportunity of nominating Tom Mix as tho bost ali-round western star who ever hoisted himself into q saddle. And if that stellar Texans nomination wasn't conclu- sivc before last night, 1t most cer- tainly is after the showing of his hundred per cent knockout. Hid den Gold" at tho New Garden. There's n raging forest fire to pick you up--and . rousing prison break to sustain your interest. Then Tom steps into the ring and bats 1t out with one of the flashiest heavyweights of the cinematic sea- son--which leads you to maze of blazing guns and bare listed com bats---just in time to see the hair raising rescue that the wholly pleasing cowboy makes of his blue- oyed heroine. What the country needs Is . screen full of Tom Mixes, and the happy result will be more ld.fashioned wholesome ac- ton pictures that the whole family can see without fear of shocked bushes or boredom.

 New York, Feb 15-(UP)- Acute weakness in utility stocks to. day unsettled the stock market after an early rally.
 Consolidated Gas was under pressure in the afternoon and sell- ing spread to other sections of the utility list on the big board and the curb. The immediate reason for selling was publication of the an- nual report of the New York pub- lie service commission. That re- port hinted that utilities should make immediate rate reductions, but added the commission would continue it's policy of obtaining re- auctions by negotiations.
 The utility decline came at Q time when the market had appar- ently overcome its uneasiness over the Michigan bank situation. and shortly after such a favorable item as declaration of the regular quarterly dividend by American Telephone and Telegraph company.
 Reports from Washington indi- cated the country's banking struc. ture had withstood favorably the shock of the Michigan moratorium. III tHe tdttCE ototO tuOuCy WNS made available from various sources and the stringency which forced weeks closing of banks was easier.
 In early trading prices firmed up in dull turnover. Commodities ral- lied after their decline yesterday. Wheat at one time was up more than a cent. It held about half the, gain. Cotton futures eased after an early rally. Silver held un- changed at 25 3-4 cents an ounce.
 Considerable interest was mani- fested in the apparent intent of Japan to withdraw from the League of Nations. Japanese bonds dropped shorply in London before the New York openin gand silk markets in Japan were sharply lower. The Japanese stock ex- change was forced to close after a crash inits own stock. Japanese bonds on the New York stock ex- change dropped to moro than 2 points. The yen dipped to within a shade of its record low.
 The feature of the utility divi- sion--Consolidatcd Gas-broke tO 48, off 3 1-4 points and other issues lost fractionally. American Tele- phone touched 100 1-2 before the dividend declaration, moved up to 101 7-8 and then fell back to around 10l. against a previous close of 100 3.4.
 Railroad shares firmed up frac. tionally and held we'll. Their re- covery after yesterdays break was helped by publication of the report of the National Transport ing committee.
 Stcen news was favorable. The Iron Age found operations at 20
