The buildings consumed by fire the past twelve months, if placed on lots of sixty-five foot frontage, would line both sides of a street extending from New York to Chicago. A person journeying along this Street of Desolation would pass in every one thousand feet a ruin from which an injured person was taken. At every three-fourths of a mile he would encounter the charred remains of a human being who had been burned to death. This is another example of heavy loss, and not fully covered with insurance, considering present cost of labor and material. . Time to check up and let us adjust that insurance line for you.

Don’t miss it or you’ll be sore when yo neighbor tells you how good it is. A FIRST NATIONAL ATTRACTION Rex Theatre-Today YOU r(VIELL NEVER SEE ANOTHER PICTURE LI THE GHLDREN PAY It is a work of absolute genius, for Jacques Tyrol, the producer, has handled the vital subject of sex instruction to children so powerfully and so artistically that the greatest minds in this big city are agreed that it is a tremendous accomplishment for good. How far should a picture go in awakening the public to the evil of its lack of sex education for the young? " Mr. Tyrol says in this connection, “To tell our story we must show the son of prudish parents, succumbing to temptation. We must show the forces which wrecked his life, show how his unwarned spirits gravitated toward the life of sudden sexual license, how he drifted into the clutches of lust. We must show how he tricked and turned the head of his childhood sweetheart, ruining her life, because neither of them were given the natural cautions which parents should give. The story had to be handled in a fingly drawn manner, for if it exaggerated the sex theme and minimized the misery occasioned thereby, it would not tell the truth and would disgust audiences. On the other hand if it revealed much of the penalty and little of the crime, the vital lesson for which the picture was to be made would be totally lost. “It was 3 vexing problem. Then I had an inspiration. I went back to the novels of Hugo, Balzac, De Maupassant, the French realists whose works did so much to cut away the superstitions of their day. I found that those men merely told the truth; that when their stories touched sex, they spoke frankly, openly, without shame or ex- citement, avoiding false glamour and false modesty. The stories they told are, of course, without rivals in intensity. T transplanted their method to the screen. I bothered no more with wonderings and questions. I merely made the picture tell the truth as the judges and prosecut- ing attorneys and clergymen had found it; made this strange but common story of pession and tragedy tell the unadorned, straightforward truth. When I was done the screen censor in Chicago, Major Funkhouser, denied it to the public, but the host of righteous people who rallied to its support in that day and in this day when the popular success of it is so great more than justified my faith in the value of the truth in art.” - THE LOST CITY of the African Jungles, with Juanita Hanson Four Episode Death Jungle FOX NEWS REX UNION ORCHESTRA ADMISSION 10c and 25¢ et S . ™ -
