There was a time when married men had some git. upand-git about ‘em. Yessir! We can remember when a husband was the boss. Lo it over the wife, he did, and there wasn't no such thing as women's rights, Wife, she'd come wheediin’ and coax. in’ for price of a new dress, saying, “John, dear, | ain't had nothin’ new to wear since Hec- &@ pup, and | look a per. 9 Jonni” And if John lin’ good, he'd shell out. But If he'd got out o’ the wrong side o’ the bed that mornin’, he wouldn't, He'd grumble elther way. And if wife got too darned pert about it, mebby he'd lam her one to remind her that a woman ts only a woman, while a man is a Man, by heck! } But not no more! Not no more!) It’s sort of perplexing. We've: been getting letters from husbands on DOE A WIFE BAR »«WAGEST" You remember that week before last the Colonial theatre offered $25 for the beat answer to that question, and a woman won the prize. The winner was shown on the screen last week and this in con nection with the first and second stofles of George Randolph Che: ter’s “Runaway June,” the bri who felt like a beggar when her husband gave her money. Then the Colonial management offered a prize of $25 for the beat letter from husbands, and that, you'd think, was the chance foi | married men to show their spunk Belleve us, these letters tell a story! NOT ONE WRITER SAYS HE'S THE BOSS. Their wiv re their partners, they say. They have different ide as to “controlling interest” and so on. Some wives are just Junior partners. Some are equal partners. Some actually wear the family pants. That's why we say husbands ain't the men they used to be. The winner of this second con-| i test will be picked Friday, and he will be filmed Saturday in time to be thrown on the screen at the!

George Randolph Chester has handled an old problem in a new and original way. June Warner, bride of a few hours, feels herself a slave when she accepts her husband’s money. Filled with a desire to get away, she leaves the honeymoon train, and there starts the thrilling tale of love and dollars. It is not melodramatic—in fact, different from anything you famous author of “Get Rich-Quick Wallingford.” Other Features and [COL have ever seen.
