leased, with its prospect of even greater liberties. The very title created considerable antagonism.
 The double-mea eaning dialog and gutter phrases of I'm No Angel" seemed due for another airing, with a prospect of being even franker and more unrestrained. EARL CARROLL ADDS FUEL
 The anvil chorus began to sound, and when the wave of in- dignation broke on Hollywood shores, Immigration was in order for Tt Ain't No Sin."
 7 The whole picture was pretty thoroughly curry -combed, and the title was changed to "St Louis Woman" The public now waits to see whether the producers have made picture of worth, or just another device to lure the amuse- ment-seeker's quarters with bait of snappy lubricity.
 The importation to Hollywood of Earl Carroll was the signal for something new in the movies. Carroll, notorious even along broad-minded Broadway as a pro- ducer who always went the abso- lute limit with his Vanities shows, not only in nudity, but in gut terization of dialog, could scarcely have been expected to produce moral tract when he turned to the films.
 So out came Murder at the Vanities," and the movic-going public gasped. 1t was plain at- tempt make a very ordinary story into glamorous screen pro- duction by adding the greatest display of nudity 1 have ever seen at picture show.
 PROTESTS GROW TO ROAR
 It drew a shower of complaints. Carroll stuck to his Broadway technique of trying to see how little he could put on his girls in their musical numbers. And 1t was very little indeed.
 Movie audiences, not used to the Broadway standard in their neighborhood theaters, made theif protests audible.
 Going to the other extreme in objectionable pictures, we find "The Merry Wives of Reno." This film was loaded with suggestive situations and with dialog which seemed to a majority of critics not only objectionable, but scarce ly even entertaining.
 LOW, BUT NOT COMEDY One scene in particular shows Glenda Farrell broadly intimating to Donald Woods that a little in- discretion on their part would not be at all displeasing to her. And all through the picture Frank Me-

 Pictures showing the army. navy, and marine corps in foreign ports got rowdier and rowdier. The old tradition that there were certain words that just weren't to be used in movies which were shown indiscriminately b e re young people and families began to disappear. The day passed when a brief damn" drew a nervous litter from an audience shocked at it's daring.

What if We Would Own all
Collectively, Laursen
80 Comments

At the annual meeting of the
farmers oil station, which was
started last spring, at Grenora, N.
d.. the audit report showed that
there had been asnet profit Of over
$4,000 in the first two months of
this oil stations existence.
Everyone must admit that this
is very encouraging report. It
proves that some of the farmers
money can be made to return to his
own pocket through cooperation,
that there need be no nliddle-man's
profit; that the local dealers who
are deriving their profits directly
from us, but still oppose us every
chance they get, could be elimi-
mated entirely through cooperation,
and then the profits they are now
making would return to our own
pocket isnstead into their pockets.
You so-called businessmen who
lay claim to a superior set Of
brains than we possess, can't you
realize that its unhealthy for your
pocket-book to be forever opposing
he source Of your income? Whel
viii YOU ever tumble to the fac
| that the more money we have tn,
greater will be your profit, ant
that You cannot exist without us
i but it would only be to our ever
lasting benefit to eleminate you
entirely.
