The proprietor, H. R. Williams, is one of the oldest merchants in Casper in point of service, and has supplied the people of the city with good things to eat for many years, and his method of merchandising as well ns his service to the public assures un- bounded success in almost any busi- ness venture. The Blue Front will continue to ¢arry a. high-class line of staple and fancy groceries at its new location, as well as @ largo line of fresh fruits and vegetables, which are received fresh every day. The two branch stores of the Blue Front are the Grant Grocery at 815 South Grant and the Central Grocery and Market at 129 East Second street. BRIGHT COMEDY IN FILM PLAY Humor of a subtle order and tn- tense drama abound in “Heroes and Husbands,” a First National attrac- tion starring Katherine MacDonald, which started a two-day run at the America theater today. Miss MacDonald has the role of a successful novelist who, in solving her own love affair finds much more difficulty than in moving her char, acters about in her fictional ro- mantes. There is a touch of melodrama at the end of “Heroes and Husbands’ that thrillingly completes a story, which, for entertainment qualities, is rarely diverting and out of the ordinary, “Heroes and Husbands” was di- rected by Chet Withey, and Miss Donald had the support ‘of an lly brilliant array. of. screen nt, including Nigel Barrie, Charles ard, Charles Clary, Mona Kings- and Ethel Kay. “Heroes and Husbands” can safely be prescribed for any one.who cares for fascinating comedy. Tho setting: are said to reflect the atmosphere of culttfred ‘society, and there {s one scené, a home on Long Island, that is said to be an architectural triumph and artistic delight. In addition to this feature ts ‘= Buster Keaton’s newest comedy, “The —GHAPLIN HAS VETERAN CAST IN “THE PILGRIM Several players who contributed to past screen successes of Charles Chaplin support the famous come- dian in his latest First National fea- ture comedy, “The Pilgrim.” which is coming to the America theater on Friday, March 23.

Sydney Chaplin; Mack Swain, “Chuck Raiser, Loyal Un- derwoot, Tom Murray and Phyllis Allen, Others who appear in support of the star are Kitty Bradbury, Dinky Dean and Mae Wells. Chaplin plays the role of an es = caped cumyict who masquerades in = the clothing of a minister But this deception brings the most excruciat- ing complications down on the head of “The Pilgrim.” for as a result he is compelled to take charge of a church in a small town. Still more amusing situations arise when a crook who had served time in the pen with the pseudo parson, comes to the same town, recognizes his old “college chum" and worms His way into the social set. A touch of romance and a dash of pathos have also been worked into the plot. * Former Queen of Montegnegro dies be given to Lo CONES PEE vreeeanse ett tr ANTIBES, Frarce, March 16.

(if DA os HOW SUNKIST ORANGES WERE PLACED ON MART Persons who have been attracted by the many advertisements of Sun- kist oranges have wondered where the name came from and how it was chosen. Seven years ago the Califor nia Fruit Growers’ exchange decided that the name Sunkist should be not merely a trademark, but should in- corporate the principles of real serv- ice to the merchants who sell the fruit. “Sunkist” {s just what its name implies, and is used because of the suggestiveness and accuracy of the trademark. For many years the exchange has been studying fruit retailing all over the United States and Canada gather- ing in the form of reliable facts and figures. They have found that many dealers all over the United States are marketing the oranges with great success using attractive displays, which bring out something of the real merit of the product. The Sunkist orange is not picked from the tree as many people assume but is carefully clipped to prevent bruising. It is for this reason that it lends itself to an appealing display after it has been shipped. pin Sahih at LITERARY CLUB TAKES IN FOUR NEW MEMBERS AT THURSDAY MEETING At the meeting of the Casper Literary club held last night in the public Mbrary, four new members were taken into the organization.
