In this country we have millions of foreigners—English, French, German, Austrian, Italian, Belgian, Swedish, Nor- wegian, Greek, Turkish, Japanese, Chinese, and of every other nationality. The great majority of these foreigners are con- scientious and law abiding citizens. They work. There is also in. this country another class. of f_ogeigners. They constitute the minority. They are not law abiding, and they are not citizens. They agitate. And because of the wild eyed bolshevistic vaporings of these anarchistic wind jammers and destroyers our country of late has been in a constant state of turmoil. L This continual unrest and uncertainty are curtailing pro- duction, undermining efficiency and alienating the loyalty of many good men. It must cease. Labor and capital must get together on a sane agd reason- able working basis, where the division of profits will be fair to both sides. Men of intelligence and integrity do not care to take orders from illiterate and irrespomsible foreigners whose 9nly claims to leadership are a misguided conscience and a pair of leather lungs. Brains, not noise, must prevail if we are to live in peace and plenty of this country. — s TAKE A FRESH START. Opportunity is knocking loudly at our community door. It is insistent that it be permitted to enter. . The world is crying for the products of the factory and of the soil. The demand is greater than the supply. America can supply that demand—if it will.

Comedy and dramatic suspense are not supposed. to ' be affinities, and it is seldom that humot and ‘the thrill of combat are united in the same scene. . In “A Sage Brush Hamlet,” however, .villlam Desmond's latest production distributed by Exhibitors Mutual, which is showing for the last time at the Grand tonight, there is a fight-which combines the elements of hilarfcus _comedy and dramatic ac- tion perfectly: - - e *Locoed Larry” Lang, a cowpunch- er (played by Desmond) when at- tacked by a desperado, entrenchns himse’f behind a feather-bed which becomes wrecked during the melee and begins spouting feathers all over the place. swirling' about the combat. ants like - a ..young snow-storm. Through thid -barrage “of plumage and bullets Larry finally shoots his way to freedom with Dora, the girl who wouldn’t leave the ranch be- cause she had been “willed” to the “locoed” cow-puncher. “The Master Mystery, is rapidly gaining in inter- est and the third episode leaves one in greater suspense than either of the previous two. GABY’S HATS. A witty Frenchman, is analyzing * his emotions, has said that he didn’t know whether he was more fascinat- ed by the hats than by Gaby herself —but then, he gallantly added, with- out the hats Gaby would not be the Gaby that he loved. Some of the most beautiful of thpse capital creations, new and whouy poetic ones, are shown in a magnifi- - cent screen persentation of Marcel L’Herbier’'s romance, “Infatuation,” + a six-reel Pathe ‘Special feature, in which Gaby Deslys is the star.
