The improvement is now in use by three halibut boats, which are undergoing overhauling and painting. Installation of the gridiron re- quired 10 days’ time. One hundred and eighty piling, including the leaning and piling, were mecessary. There are two ways, one 136 feet | long, which affords room for three boats of ordinary size at the same| time, and the other, 40 feet long, which can take two. The gridiron thus can provide accommodations for five boats at the same time. Near Machine Shop The gridiron is at the rear of the Charles G. Warner Company. In the immediate future a hoist will be erectéd by the Warner Company so that engines can be Jowered into and installed in boats cred into boats on the gridiron. “The gridiron fills a long-felt want,” said Mayor Thomas B.

CAPITOL BILLS WALLAGEBEERY FOR TOMORROW| “Millie” wit—h‘Twelvetrees\ Shows for Last Times Tonight “Millie,” starring Heler Twelve- trees, will be shown for the last mes tonight at the Capitol thea- tre. “Way for a Sailor,” with Wallace Beery, Polly Moran, Joha Gilbert and Jim Tully in the cast.| will be the attraction tomorrow night. In “Millie” Miss Twelvetrees pioves that her success in pic- tures has not been due to her beauty alone. In her portrayal of ihe fiery-haired heroine of this photoplay she is reguired to age 18 years from the beginning of the picture to the close. She is shown ficst as a small town beauty just out of school, thenasa sophisticated NewYorker and finally in the dra- raatic climax, when she faces the villain - to save the honor of her caughter, as a middle-aged woman. Remarkable Age Changes The entire change, which leaves the impression that she has agec without flaunting it with grey| wigs and such, is achieved by Miss Twelvetrees by a process of elimi- | naiion . As she grows older cer-| |tain portions of her make-up are left off and the camera does the |rest. It is interesting to note the| |strange reaction of the camera in process.
