“LOVETIME” AT THE REX TONIGHT AND FRIDAY ‘Shirley - Mason, the' popular little Wlllum Fox star, will be the chief figure on the program at the Rex theater this evening when she be- gins. an cnngement in her latest picture : which is attractively titled “Lovetime”, The story was written by Hubert La Due and the picture directed by Howard M. Mitchell. Raymond McKee plays opposite the star. - “Lovetime” has ¢on s heroine a dainty maid of Savoy, of humble birth but fair to look upon. An anstocmng ,‘Il‘llst, noting . her béauty, péinite her portrait and sur- renders his/heart while doing it. The obsucles {0 the happiness of the pair, and how these are over- come are said to be the basis of incidents which stir the heart. “FOR BIG STAKES” AT THE REX THEATER NEXT SUNDAY Whenever the youngsters of this town hear that Tom Mix is to appear in .a new screen production, there seems to be the same stir in the air that is felt around Christmas and near circus time. This, on the face of it, proves the popularity of the Fox star.. So when sonny is unusu- ally- polite and exceptionally oblig- ing, if it isn’t Christmas or circus time, it must be a new Tom Mix pic- ture. This star of the screen will develop the youngster's. best manners. For that reason, when he asks you for the money to go to the Rex Theater, you may know he wants to see Mix do the daring stunts that endear his acting to the adventurous mind. And if you see your grown-up friends waiting for the picture to flash upon the screen, you will know that Tom’s many exploits hold lively interest for the mature mind as well. Don’t be surprised, too, if you are attending a matinee, to discover that the ladies find strong interest in the romance that is a part of the coming photoplay, a William Fox production, entitled “For Big Stakes,” which starts its two days’ run on Sunday. No matter what the age of the per- son, or the sex—this Tom Mix' pic- ture is likely to be found entertain- ing far beyond the average run of screen features. PR “FREE AIR” AT THE GRAND TONIGHT AND TOMORROW “Shoating” of the motion picture “Fair Air,” an adaptation from Sin- clair Lewis’ story of that name, dis- covered Minnesota and the North- west as an out-door studio for film- making equal to California in many respects, sdrpassing the coast in cer- tain scenic. opportunities. The glimps- es of the Northwest, from St. Paul to remotest parts of Glacier Park in “Free. Air,” which will be screened at the Grand theater tonight and Fri- day, matinee and evening, indicate | the possibilities of this new field in ‘which two young St. Paul men have begun pioneering and purpose to continue. Mr. Lewis i is also a product of Min- nesota. The story of “Free Air” is a ro- mance of a man and a maid drawn together by the mutual bonds of love and admiration of the finer thmgy of life. The Milt and Claire ir the .story may be the Jack and,“Jill of -any community in the Umtv’J States. Their problems are the ll'ablems of every man and woman W',0 ever met under the common can’,py of under- standing. A swiftly moving fstory, with situa- tions that unfol!, with amazing rapidity, the story; of “Free Air” ap- proaches its clirsax with a succes- sion of thrills ard developments that will awaken tpe emotions of every member of 4n audience. It is a story that er.bodies within itself all that theatex<; oers love best; splendid acting, & sqf:ies of beautiful scenes and a roma ce that will win instant approval, { s “THE, HEL.L-DIGGERS” AT G"tAND THEATER SATURDAY i: Viallace fReid is at his best in “The Well Diggers” a red-blooded action picture, which is on view, in return engagement, at the Grand theater next Saturday. It is a virile story of life in the California gold dredg- ing flelds, and every scene is filled with strong dramatic action, Lois Wilson plays opposite the star. Joke ‘on Famous Composar. ~ A certaln ‘newly rich persan with more money ‘than culture calied on M. Massenet and said that he had seen his photograph in a paper and had read that lie was “a clever planist.” Would M. Massenet play a few pleces at a little purty? He would be well paid of course! The world-famous greatly amused. “Certainly!” he re- plled. “What night?’- “Thursday.”? “Thursday? What a pity! I am en gaged on Thursday. But I can give Ithe address of a frlend—an excellent planist, who can play all the modern dances_beautifully.” ! So saying, Massenet gave the un- fortunate newly rich the address of— Saint-Saens! Olylously ‘the victim of Massenet's joke had never heard of Saint-Saens, for he called on the dir- muslclan . was -/IA CIRCUIT WITH GRID LEAK RESISTANCE Takes Place of “C” Battery— How Impedance of Flow Is Determined.

Joseph Bondy, as grievance offi- cer of the Amerl- } can Legion and war risk officer for Onondaga .county, N, X, hears thousands of kicks every year and passes them on with added zest to the proper authorities, He has set- tled “thousands and thousands” of claims with the veterans’ bureau and proved a great friend to every dough- boy with an ax to have ground. Resides helng a high kicker, Bondy is a skilfull recruiter, New York has {he largest Legion membership of any state in the Union—due in a measure to Bondy's intensive efforts. He has assisted In the formgation of 57 posts, and has spoken upwards of 200 times In 742 aifferent cittes and towns in the state. ‘When'Joking Is Dangerous.
