The round | weight of whales could not be de-| termined, but their products amounted to 8,925,189 pounds, val- ued at $502,081. Of the total catch, exclusive of whales, 442,601.784 pounds, valued at $10,843.836, con- sisted of salmon; 197,887,987 pounds | valued at $5,621,157, consisted of | other fish; and 2,008,276 pounds, valued at $117,226, consisted of shellfish.

Of these, 158 canned fish, 103 cured fish, 23 manufactured by- products, and 42 handled fresh and frozen fishery products. The output of these establish- ments amounted to 387,593,551 pounds, valued at $50,795,819. The salmon industry was by far the most important and produced 272,- 244,435 pounds of products, valued | at $42525,845.

In directing this novel domestic comedy, William de | Mille takes us into the bosom of the Thayer family and makes us | laugh and cry with them rather than at them. | The cast chosen for the picture, now at the Palace Theatre, is ob- | viously a hand-picked one. Conrad | Nagel, Bessie Love and Leila Hy- ams, share stellar honors, and those lovable old troupers, Edythe Chapman and James Neill run close seconds as the mother and father. Robert Ober and Paul Kruger are great as Ceusin Harry and Tom Gibney, and they rightfully should be, for they played the same parts on the stage for four years. o | “SONNY BOY” NOW | | SHOWING, COLISEUM The audience at the Coliseum Theatre where Warner Bros., new child star, Davey Lee, was seen| last night in his first film, “Sonny Boy,” surrendered unanimously and completely to the charm and poise¢ of the youngster.

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED SitlS LITTLF, CLARICE has apparently mistaken her fellow passenger for the zebra Mummic pro- mised to show her at the Zoo. And the gentle soul to the left is likewise a bit disturbed by the above display of poor taste in hosiery. Small wonder the fellow buries his head ostrich-like behind a paper. Even the wariest of us seem somehow te go astray in our choice of hosiery. That is, unless we have learned what so many others have, that Holeproof Hosiery is always in good taste. Holeproof colours and patterns are smart and dis- tinctive. They dre fashion’s latest and appeal to the discriminating - gentleman of unquestioned good taste. And Holeproof offers cconomy as well; it gives 3 to 4 times more wear than any other hose. In fact, wear has built for Holeproof Hosiery a world wide reputation, Representative BEN C.
