Its precincts have always been closed to females, wherefore there weren't any hens, wherefore there weren't any eges. But some of the monks decided of 38 natural to a holy man as to any other, and went into the poultry business in a small way. The feminine cackle of hens came in time to the shocked ears of the monastic council, which ap- pealed to the representative of the Greek government, who referred the matter to the Foreign Office, which referred it to the cabinet. And the cabinet said the monks could keep hens or could refrain from keeping hens, just as they liked. So the monks of Mount Athos are having eggs for breakfast. e YOUR BEST FRIEND— YOUR DOG Treat him as ke would treat you, Vote NO to City Ordinance No. 205, —adv. 1ory.” TIBBETT STARS | AT CAPITOL IN “ROGUE SONE™ OF WORLD WAR Melody and Color, Adven- ture and Romance Blend in Brilliant Play Song ‘and color, high adventure and romance, are all blended into {“The Rogue Song" which began showing at the Capitol theatre Sunday and which will be repeated |tonight and tomorrow night. : Lawrence Tibbett, Metropolitan opera baritone, is the star. His vocal selections range from works of operatic magnitude to simple love songs, all intimately bound into the action. The picture is an entertaining story, and Tibbett is introduced as a swashbuckling, singing bandit chief in the Caucasus. Costumes, settings and mountain scenery, all lend themselves perfectly to the use of Technicolor, and Tibbett's | resonant voice in the drama does much to create a perfect illusion. Lionel Barrymore Directs Lionel Barrymore, deft master |of direction, handled this phase of it. Herbert Stothart composed the music, with interpolations by Franz Lehar, and Clifford Grey wrote ltha lyrics. The story is from the pen of Frances Marion, with dia- |logue by John Colton, so the | pleture has every advantage in this respect. Tibbett was a stage actor, and |2 good one, before his voice was | discovered, He brings to the pic- !ture a perfect characterization. \Catherine Dale Owen plays oppo- site Tibbett and Nance O'Neil, Wal- lace Macdonald, Kate Price, Lio- nel Belmore, Judith Vosselli, Flor- that an appetite for eggs was as|ence Lake, Ulirich Haupt, Burr| ™ McIntosh and Allen Morgan are cast in roles that fit them like; gloves.
