LILYAN TAsHMAN SENSATION.

nobody ever thought bored Hollywood

Tashman, in directing the trend Of

The Tashman wardrobe always con-

For songs such as these Nine. Je-
ritZa's manner of singing is excellent
ly suited. Her voice is perfectly con-
troled, and she has a range of dy-
namics at her command and an in
stinctive knowledge of how to use
them of decided originality. She puts
warmth and lingering tenderness into
each phrase, which is an art mastered
by few concert singers. She saw to 1t

were by lar the finest.
In the two arias her penchant for
broadening phrases and uncalled for
fermatos was used to excess while the
limitation Of her vocal powers was
more apparent. Two French songs.

advantage.
Elizabeth Patterson has come to be
known as the scene stealer of the
world. Put her in anything and she
makes her part register 100 per cent,
even II that part be but one line.
Her lines in this play are frequent
praise be-and she wrings them dry
of everything they have. The audi
ence responds with such f1attering
warmth that 1t must be a pleasure to
work under such conditions, and the
critics keep writing encomiums.
The picture producers meanwhile
are on the job begging her to come
out to Hollywood and play the same
part-Mrs. Martin-in the picturized
version which will have Mary Boland
playing opposite her. But Patty is
signed for the run of the play in New
York and for the London production
II the company crosses in the late
Spring.
Laura Hope Crews has one Of those
amazing roles she gets from time to
time that reveal her exquisite art at
its exquisite best. That the charming
Laura should best play the role of a
pretty and maddening woman is a
strange paradox, for she is anything
but maddening in life and is as popu-
lar as she is charming But give her
an Aunt Min to work at and she's of
to one of the best interpretations OF
her career, and the audience is of to
an ideal evening.
Which brings us down to Roland
Young. Claire Hummer, Roland
Young's mother-i law. undoubtedly
had his veal in mind in writing this
comedy. For some time Roland
Young has had a heimweh for the
theater that all the cameras in Holly
wood could not mitigate. The role
OF Ned Farrar is charming and he
plays it to the hilt, but Mrs. Hummer
undoubtedly got so carried away with
the characters of the Warning
Sisters that she forgot to throw her
son-in-law more lines that snapped.
And Roland Young is too much the
artist to fight for notice when the
story called for his being a very
self -effacing young man. So, at times,
he is quite definitely effaced from the
picture. while Laura Crews and
Patty" are getting all the attention.
And, by the way, the role of Queena
Farrar is by Frances Fuller a little
brunette from the legitimate who
came out to Hollywood last season to
play opposite Gary Cooper in "One
Sunday Afternoon" The movies are
leaving their stamp on the New
York theater and no question Of it.

The camp staff is having consider
able difficulty in finding the seeds
to fill their quota, as the trees seem
to have little or no seed on this
year. So they are asking that any
one who knows where the following
seeds can be found, communicate
with the camp superintendent and
inform him where he can send men
to gather black locust seed, tulip
poplar seed, black walnut, red oak
and black oak acorns. The nuts
will apparently be more plentiful
after the frost brings them down,
but the locust and poplar should be
collected before they are frosted,
and consequently they are the ones
for which the service is searching
right now. If anyone knowing of To-
Gust trees or poplar trees with seed
on will please communicate with
Mr. H. P. Twitchell or J. r. Ben
jamin at Camp Morgan, the service
will be greatly appreciated.

Hezekiah Leads His People Back
to God, II Chronicles 30:1-a. 13, for
Sunday, Sept. g.:
Hezekiah, king of Judah, was the
son of a wicked family. 1t may have
been through the influence of a
good mother he was devoted and
loyal to God. The northern king
dom had been taken into captivity
by the Assyrians. Now was an op-
perfume time to issue a call for re-
pentance, and revive the religion of
Jehovah.
v. l. "And Hezekiah sent to all
Israel and Judah and wrote letters
also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that
they should come to the house of
the Lord at Jerusalem, to keep the
Passover unto the Lord God Of Is
rael." Hezekiah Began his reign by
reviving the worship of Cod. He
was broad in that he wanted the
northern kingdom which was a sep
arate organization to join in that
worship. Here is a suggestion for
uniting rellg1OuS factlOnS IN COM
mon program of real and sincere
worship.
v. 2. "For the king had taken
counsel to keep the Passover in the
second month" Taking into account
numbers in counsel increases inter-
est and activity The second month
was later than the appointed time
for the Passover. Repentance and
worship is better late than never.
V. 8. ''For they could not keep
it at that time, because the priests
had not sanctified themselves suffi-
GENTLY; neither had the people
gathered themselves together at Je-
rusalem. When the church pews

Under the present system, the Is
counties in southeastern Ohio have
16 members of the state legislature
to work for them and to vote for
them; under the proposed system,
these same 16 would have only five
members of the legislature. This
would mean nothing more nor less
than a dictatorship of 27 men, for
this number would be a majority Of
the legislative body. 1t would mean
that rural Ohio would be compelled
to accept only those crumbs that
Cleveland and Cincinnati decided to
drop from the table. 1t would mean
that we would be in danger of los
ing the gasoline tax money which
we were able to secure for the town
ships and counties, after long
struggle. Rural road building would
be at the mercy of the urban CEN
ters. State aid for education would
depend upon the whims of the city
legislators.
This grouping of the small coun-
ties is not done in the interest of
economy for they propose to pay
each member of the legislature $5,-
900 and mileage, while new, under
the present plan, legislator re-
ceives only $1,000 year and mile
age during a session. The legisla-
tor of Ohio, under rural influence,
has never demanded more for rural
people than that to which they were
justly entitled. The legislator has
never withheld from the cities legis-
lation which was for their real
good certainly, if we expect to pro-
tect our roads, our schools, and our
welfare; if we expect to protect a
form of government which has prov
en- its efficiency, all of us in rural
life must unite to bring about the
defeat of this measure, which is ad-
designed to further the
selfish interests of the two largest
cities of the state.

" g. For if ye turn again unto

children shall find compassion be-
fore them that lead them captive, so
that they shall come again into this
land; for the Lord your God is gra-

turn his face away from you, if ye

will God meet the man that starts
toward him. His grace covers the
blacklist sin. His mercy lifts the
loftiest level.

Jerusalem much people to keep the

success. The sacred fire spread

thus the church sends out it's

avowed purpose of this change is to

troll of all legislation in the state. l

it is sign that somebody has not
sanctified himself
VS.. 5, 6. $50 they established a
decree to make proclamation
throughout all Israel So the posts
went with the letters, according to
the commandment of the king, say
ing, Ye children of Israel, turn
again unto Jehovah, that he may re-
turn to the remnant that are escap-
ed of you out of the hand of AS
SYRIA" Good news must be sent
abroad by such systems as are in
use. The church must use all mod
ern methods of reaching the mass
es. The press, radio, printing, art
and music ought to be used in pro-
jecting religious thought, as we'll as
the pulpit. Turning back to God is
the need of the world. One of the
causes of the worlds depression has
been the loss of spiritual life. There
is today a moral and spiritual con-
fusion that can only be cleared by
spiritual vision.
V. 7. "And be not ye like your
fathers, and like your brethren
which transgressed against the Lord
God of your fathers, who therefore
gave them up to desolation as you
see." The fathers had refused to
worship at Jerusalem, and estab-
lished the calf worship. The wick
ed is unworthy of imitation. The
generation today should be better
than that of yesterday. That relig-
ion is best which requires a strict
morality Make the world better by
being better
V. 8. "Now be ye not stiffnecked,
as your fathers were, but yield
yourselves unto the Lord and enter
into his sanctuary which he hath
sanctified forever, and serve the
Lord your God, that the ferceness
of his wrath may turn away from
you" The Old Testament idea of
God was that of being of a severe
nature often expressed in wrath
The New Testament interprets him
more as a God Of love; nevertheless
it must be remembered that God is
a God of justice, and that there are
penalties as we'll as rewards in the
