THE SALVATION ARMY. AT THE THEATERS - FATTY ARBUCKLE A DELIGHT. Fatty Arbuckle is nothing f not a de.:gnt, no.matter tne nature of the comedy in which he appears. In his new country town comedy, ‘‘Love,” which-is-being -shown. at the. Grand theatre toiight and tomorrow, he treats his.admirers-with so many sur- prises that all wonder how he does them. His ‘work- with an old fash- ioned bicycle, as he. rides with his dog, is exeruciatingly funny and the complications . following his unex- pected marriage, are exceedingly hu- morous. No one who likes the com- edy that Fatty alone supplies should miss seeing this excellent farce. Coupled with “Love”—and of no less importance newest’ Goldwyn picture, “One Week of Life,”” a dramatic play of the sort that suits Miss Fredericks ability the best.

MARGUERITE CLARK COMING. When “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabb:!ge Patch,” written by Alice Hegan Rice, was published some fifteen years a o, the beauty of the story createcl a pro- found impression. It speedily asseTt- ed its superiority, and is today looked upon as one of the best sellers in ‘the literary. world. This splendid steary has been. picturized by Paramount as a starring vehicle for Marguerite Clark, and it will be shown at t he Elko theatre next Monday and Tue & day. i ATTENDANCE A DELIGHT. \ David W. Griffith, master producer-'{ has scored another artistic triumph § with his latest Artcraft photoplay, “The Greatest Thing in Life,” which is to appear in the Elko theatre"to-| night and Sunday, matinee and even- ing.” The story moves alertly from the moment the characters are intro- duced, their foibles outlined with mirthful effect. It presents a pene- a7 e e st e s life, slightly different, perhaps, but the same in thefinal estimate. As a drama, it makes attendance a delight, as a profound study df‘humanity, its momentous, theme. will: recur to the spectater for many Weeks.

Nolan, speakér of the house of representatives during the last legislature. He is being widely encouraged to enter thé s S St campaign. Charles Cheney, political writer of the Minnqapolis Journal, has this to say: i When “Tom” Girling saluted Speaker W. I. Nolan as “our gion. You are welcome. next governor” just after final adjournment of the house, he was| METHODIST CHURCH SERVICES. voicing rather more than the usual empty compliments of such an occasion. Mr. Nolan looms well up as a.governorship pos- sibility today, though merely “among those mentioned” at the start of the session. He emerged from the-session more popular with his fellow house members than he .was at the beginning, which is rather an unusual accomplishment for.a speaker. This was due mainly to the absolute fairness and marked efficiency as a presiding officer. He was a good-natured sort of a tyrant, and often kept the house in.a good humor when clouds threat- ened. Still he preserved .excellent order and did not permit parliamentary trifling. The house:-organization headed by the speaker -worked out a legislative program early in the session, agreeing to support bills to which the legislation could “point with pride.” Their . program was pretty well riddled by the senators, who never chimed in to any extend, but that does not alter the fact that the house did pass several important bills for which there was some " popular demand. The speaker naturally can claim a measure of credit for what the house did, and in fact his vote and his influence counted on the side of most important measures the lower branch approved. . Speaker Nolan has been a strong “dry,” -while his eulogist has been the wet leader in the house for three sessions. The incident is one of the signs marking the end.of the old wet and dry feud in state polities. —0 THOUSANDS REGISTER FOR TRAINING Rapid progress is being made in reaching the disabled sol- diers, sailors and marines, who thave received such disabilities as a result of service that they require vocationpal retraining. The federal board of vocational education, designated by Con- gress to rehibilitate the disabled, reports a total of 57,611 cases of disabilities registered. This is an increase over the preceed- ing month of 18,042 cases, or 58 per.cent. The increase in-the number of cases for the month of February over the month of January was 78 per cent,-and the increase of ‘January over December was 80 per cent, and the increase for December over November was 50 per cent. The average rate of increase for the four months béing 62 per cent. The source of these cases is as follows: From the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, 10,231 ; from the Department of Labor, 117; from the Red Cross, 6,710; from the hospitals, 34,063; from the men direct, 4,725; from other agencies, 1,765. Con- tact has been established in 40,276 cases. The vocational ad- visers of the Federal Board have completed surveys in 32,730 cases. These preliminary surveys are the necessary basis and foundation for future action, and it is.upon these records that the training-awarded the disabled man is based. Necessarily it is a slow process to make an exhaustive sur- vey of each case, coordinated with: the personal desires and wishes of the patient, and finally arrive at a course suitable for the man and which he personally desires to follow.

Prussia has gent thirty-three royalties into exile, mc}udmg the emperor, 'empress, twenty ‘princes and eleven princesses. Brunswick is-at-the bottom-of -the list with only the ducal couple ahd their three children. The two tiny principalities .of Reuss, whose area is hardly one-three hund- redth part of that of Prussia, have exiled thirty-six royalties. The principality of Lippe, only about twenty square miles larger that the Reuss states, has a royal family numbering twenty-four persons. Most extraordinary is the case of Schaumbur; -Lippe with its area of one hundred thirty square miles, where there was one royal personage for every five square miles.

To use his own-words, George Farrel- 1y, played by-Bert: Lytell, has become a thing with ‘‘the soul of a typewrit- er and -the heart.of an adding ma- chine,”—in other words he is satis- fled with the grinding existence of a drudge and lacks the faith in him- self to rise to higher things. There are-two-women in his life however, who know his capabilities and deter- mine that:through! their:faith in him he shall be brought back to know am- bition and strive for success. The play shows the powerful manner in which he is tempted, his'gradual -re- clamation and then his:renewed am- bition and abeunding enthusiasm.
