T lflm [T L T !Ll:‘l n!i umi .», (b'/ e Uniess otherwise indicated, thentriea) notices and reviews o this colump arv written by the press agencles for the respect' e amusement company CAARLES RAY AT PALACE “Dynamite Smith” fulfills Thomas I, Ince's promise that 'he would bring Charles Ray back to the old famillar role of the wawky, earnest, bashful youth that endeared him to millions, “Dynamite Smith,"” as it was shown today at the Pal- | ace theater where it remains until Saturday, is disclosed as a gripping, tense and at times terribly thrilling | drama. The first thrill comes when Ray | as a timid reporter on - his first | Assignment, attempts to cover a murder in a low dive on the Bar- | ‘bary Coast. Wallace Beery, “Slugger” Rourke, the proprietor, has good reasons for not wanting the newspapers to get hold of the story. He'ls a brute and bully of the decpest dye and in oufwitting him, Ray is, to the audience, both pathetic and amusing, Violet, heaten by her husband, the Slug- ger, and forced to dafce for amusement of the riff raff, enlists the boy's sympathies, and the sec- ond big thrill comes when Voilet, her baby and Smith, with others, are ‘snowed in on the Yukon. Death stares them in the face, but {hey are saved by Smith, who accom- plishes the amazing feat of break- ing through the storm with dead Viclet's baby in his arms. ‘The vaudeville bill is offered four Keith acts topped by the Five Ruby Girls in an excellent novelty dance offering. These five girls are ptionally clever dancers and their offering is highly entertaining. James and Bernie Loster are com- v gymnasts; Lewis and Smith en- fertain at the piano, and Irving Jongs, a colored comedian has a new line of songs and patter. Com- ing Sunday for a four-day run is the Willlam Fox special, “The Man \Who Came Back” with George ('Brien featured. Mr. O'Brien, a Lrother to the famous TEugene ('Brien is seen in a role that bet- | ters his “Roughneck” role in which lie pleased audiences this past week. In addition there will be an excel- | lent bill of Keith vaudeville.

Nichols, of Auburn, Professor Nichols emphasized the fact that the statement was not a manifesto of any theological party, but an appeal for liberty within the Presbyterian church for the holding of various forms of evangelical Christian belief, and for subordinating theologlcal differences to united work for the world, The statement and the names of the signers are as follows: “In view of recent acts which aré disturbing the peace of our church and threatening the liberties of its office-bearers, we, the undersigned ministers make this statement to the thousands of our brethren who may not know all the facts but who, we are assured, agree with us in ardent desire to presesrve the unity of the chureh, “The affirmation issued in 1024, signed by over 1300 of our ministe asserted the historic freedom of teaching, within evangelical bonds, guarantecd to ministers of our com- munion. The General Assembly of 1924 agreed with the position taken in the affirmation by rejecting as unconstitutional an overture which sought to require of certain officers of the church subscription to par- “ |ticular interpretations of the stand- ards set forth in deliverances of general assemblies, “In spite of this decislon of our highest court, efforts are still heing made to Impose these doctrinal in- terprations upon ministers, and fin |effect to apply to members of the Loards and other church officers the very tests which the assembly de- clared unconstitutional. A letter has | been widely circulated which insinu- | ates dishonesty on the part of some of our ministers and asserts that un- belief is widespread among them, and therefore urges agitation 1o in- form the people of the church of these alleged conditions, for the pur- pose of securing the eleetion of what are called loyal commissioncrs to the next general assembly. “Such actions are formenting a spirit of division, casting unwarant- d suspicion on the loyalty and can- dor of faithful ministers, threatening the disruption of our church, and | hindering that concentration of our energles on Chritian ministry to the | world which the heart of our church desires, | “Therefore, we appeal to our brethren in the presbyteries to stand firmly for the maintenance of our | nistorical liberties, to discourage un- | brotherly imdgments, to che ideal of an inclusive Christian |church, and to unite the whole strength of our communion in for- warding the work to which our mas- ter has called us.” Signers: Wendell Prime | Chureh, Yonkers, N. ¥ { Alexander, First Church, | Pa.; Robert Brewster Beattie, Fivst | Church, East Orange, N.

Jad Salts is incxpensive and TELLS OF LIFE IN - AFRIGAN JUNGLES Prol, Johnson Describes Natives and Their Mode of Living The dangérs found lurking in the Jungles of Africa are much exagge: ated, many of the tales told by ex- plorers, did not happen and could not happen, sald Dr. Amandus John- son, former professor at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, ir a lecture lasts nightsat the First Lutheran church, under the auspices of llh, Men's Brotherhood. Dr. Johnson, fwhose lecture was illustrated with stercopticon views, spent two years in Africa collecting ethnographical material for the mu- seums of several colleges, Although he went there with the intention of staying about eight months he found that he would not be able to com- plete his work in that time and con- sequently was forced to remain a longer period, Some excellent views were shown | of the vegetation in Africa. Vegeta- tion, the like of that of Africa, is found nowhere in this eountry, not | even in hot-houses, Dr, Johnson stat- ed. There twigs are broken from trees and stuck in the ground. In a short time they begin to sprout, and in a few years have grown to be trees. Dr. Johnson spoke of the time when he built a small hut in one part of Africa and then went on a trip which kept him away for two months. When he returned at the end of that period he did not recognize his hut as all the branches | which he had used in its construc- tlon had begun to sprout, causing a material change in its appearance. Natives Superstitious Superstitution plays a very im- portant part in the life of the Afri- can native, according to the views Dr. Johnson exhibited and the way he spoke concerning it. All the riv- |ers are named after the god which ! the natives think habitates it. tal punishment is common. Capi- Dr. |Johnson said that in one instance a man was beheaded for failure to show sufficient courtesy to the chief (natives to |br. in a lawsuit, Much diplomacy and the exercis- ing of common sense are necessary in dealing with the African natlves, he sald, A person, in order to get along well with them, must first gain their confidence and get them to realize that he is their friend and will help them. As long as these icircumstances exist the natives are not to be feared.' In fact, he sald that a person with a group of na- tives in Africa is safer than’a per- son on the streets of this country because of the innumerable dangers occasioned by the presence of auto- mobiles and other dangers of mod- ern civilization. However, if a visit- or does something which cause the be suspiclous and mis- trustful the result raight be fatal, he said. Build Your Own Bridges Traveling in the interlor requires much patience and precaution. There are many rivers which must be crossed but which offer no means of crossing. Conscquently bridge must be bullt, According to the plan most used three or four shots | are fired into the water to sc away the crocodiles and then a na- tive swims across with a rope which | he fastens to the top of a tree, end of the rope is thrown back the river, The native then down the tree and those on the op- posite side pull on the rope causing the tree to fall directly across the river, thus forming the first span of the proposed bridge. The bridge is then made wider” with other trees which are fastened to the first, One of the greatest dangers of Africa is the presence of crocodiles, Johnson said. The rivers are in- fested with these animals which are al s ready to seize those who ven- ture too near the river side or who fall into the water, He said that he had never seen a crocodile seize a white person in this way although several natives who were with him in his travels had suffered this fate. | Shy of Explorer's Camera In relating some of his own ex- periences Dr. Johnson spoke of the superstition which the natives have of cameras. He said that on one occasion shortly after he had visited a village with his camera the child of one of the families there died. Im- mediately the cause of the child’s death was said to be the presence of the camera. Consequently, when Dr. Johnson returned to the village a short while later all the natives disappeared.
