H ;jle aaddect true sto ”uweever heard— 'fifa«:fim«, Recently a friend of mine related to me a story of one of the finest chagacters in the world. He was married and had three children. When he was 53 his health broke. He had to give up busi- His hit or miss invest ment program had failed. Presently he had ex- pended his meager capital. He carried ample life insurance. He desrly loved his wife S il He eould not bear to see them suffer. It suddenly dawned upon him that he was worth more dead than alive. He died so they might live. [ J LJ [ ] Since hearing this I have e inquiries and find _that there are thousands of people carrying life insurance who, due to disability or other ea are worth moe dead M alive. In my opinion nothing can take the place of life A short time ago I heard another true st recently established plan for aiding anyone and everyone to attain FIN- ‘NCIAL INDEPEND- poace in future years.

GLOOS, Eskimos and a blizzard which produces shivers to be seen lend realistic atmosphere to a more or less unconvinecing story, “River’s End” a tale of the Northwest Mounted Police, this week's feature at the Earle. Using that much employed ficti- tious theme, dual personalities, in which the physical resemblance of one man for another causes most amazing compllcluonn, “River's End,” e story written by James Oliver Curwood, carries more con- Mol:hl: printed form than it does upon the screen. It affords opportunity, however, for some splendid acting on the part of Charles Bickford, who portrays the dual role of Bergt. Conniston of the Canadian Mounted Police and John Keith, wanted for murder by the police. Bickford displays ad- mireble versatility in his interpreta- ton of the two men, physically dupli- cates, but temperamentally utterly different. xvelyn Knapp as Miriam, “the girl in the story,” acts well and is pretty to look at. Superiority of the talk- ing picture over the silent movie in its ability to entertain is once more proven by the r‘rfil played by J.

THI National Junior Theater bob- bed up again yesterday morn- ing at the National Theater with a presentation of Paul Kester's ver- sion of “Tom Sawyer,” making its initial bow before any audience. One can say that ih spite of the growlings of & vast crowd that seemed to have forgotten that the- aters begin on time and which came storming noisily down the aisle just when one was trying to get ac- quainted with Mr. Sawyer—that this play was a hit. It was a hit not onlyhth- matter of the actors and the speed of their delivery but in the sequences of its story—which seems as though it were one of the mt yl for juvenlle productions a matter of fact, '.hc producmm iuelf was not es- sentially juvenile, even though many members of the cast were a I way from the frock-coated age, bu after ing took on that remained lmw the final drop of the curtain. ‘The actors and actresses eir roles with & niceness. ‘many elder thespians would do well to emulate.
