Four years ago the good-looking | seventeen-year-old youngster was a | sophomore in the Glendale (Califor- nia) High School with not a thought | of motion pictures. | Summertime came along and | young Goodwin wondered where he | could pick up a little "change." He | saw a newspaper advertisement that "Boys" were wanted at the old Grif- fith-Majestic studio. He applied-- was chosen out of two hundred-- and from then on his success was assured. He has appeared- with William S. Hart in "The Silent Man"; {Charles Ray, "His Own Home | Town"; Lila Lee, .*Puppy Love"; Vivian Martin, "The Third Kiss"; "Hearts of the Hills' and "Duchess of Suds" with Mary Pickford, and "Sweet Lavender" with Mary Miles Minter. As Jimmy. Flannery, the young Irish truckman, he has a fine char- acter role-in **You Never Can Tell." He loses out in the race for the hand of Rowena Patrick Jones (Bebe Daniels), but in losing he accom- plishes a bit of acting that is full of fine comedy touches. He is al expert in portraying puppy love. "You Never Can Tell" is a Realart lin. It was scenarized by Tom Ger- aghty and Helmar Bergman from the two Saturday Evening Post stories by Grace Lovell Bryan.--Advt, At Griffin's. To-night will be the last oppor- tunity to see Norma Talmadge in "She Loves: and Lies," the splendid feature picture which has pleased Griffin's audiences during the past two days. "She Loves and Lies" is a lively serio-comedy punctuated here and there with deep emotional moments, in which Miss Talmadge plays ir a dual role--a role that gives here the use of three distinct names. Her principle part is as "Marie Max," who, for reasons pecu- liar to the play, poses as "June Daye," a Greenwich Village girl. The roles give Miss Talmadge un- usual play for her versatility and the manner in which she rises to the task is more than gratifying. Con- way Tearle has the leading male role, and the picture has been pro- duced with lavish splendor. The second episode of "The Branded Four" will also be shown for the last time to-night, as will also the balance of our interesting pro- grami.e, which imtludes a splendid "Smiling Bill" Parson's comedy, and unique Vod-a-Vil movies. Don't miss this programme to-night.-- Advt, MEN WILLING TO DO SMALL JOBS AT HOUSES Local Labor Agent Asks Citi- zens Who Want Help to Phone Him. Allan Stroud, local agent for the Ontario government employment | bureau, states that if the people in | Kingston who had a few hours | work for laboring men to do, would communicate with him, he would be | able to get them help. On Tuesday, !a man who went into the labor bu- | reau, stated that in view of the fact | that there were so many men out of | work he had decided to make some repairs to his cellar so as to give heip to some man. It goes without saying that a large number offered to go. There is no question that the labor situation is acute, and small jobs will help greatly. On Tuesday a-man arrived in the city from the lumber camps at Whitney, Ont. He had positions for forty-five expert bushmen. The firm which he represented was willing to pay $4 a cord for cutting wood.

J HUGHES 1S NOW OWNER Of the Casualties Reed and Rattan Factory of Kingston. At a meeting of the stockholders of the Casualties Reed and Ruttan Company, on Tuesday afternoon, the offer of J. M. Hughes was accepted for all of the assets of the company, and he will carry on the business. R. F. Elliott, late president, stat- ed that the company was started w'ih the object in view of assisting 8- abled soldiers to learn an occupation that would enable them to earn a good living wage. A number of citizens subscribed their money with this object in view, but from its in- ception the company got poor Sup- port from the soldiers' civil re-estab- lishment department of this. city. About midsummer, Mr. Elliott says, the company had some twenty re- turned men working in the factory, and on one hour's notice the officers of the soldiers' civil re-establishment took every man away with the ex- ception of two, who are still employ- ed by the company, with the promise of re-establishment In some "other occupation. They did this after a written" request from the company that if such a move was intended, to give the company reasonable notice so that they could make other ar- rangements., This action held up production for five or six weeks be- fore another staff could be engaged and instructed in the business. There are now employed about twelve or thirteen women and girls and several men, who are doing very satisfactory work. The factory is very busy. In a short time, the new company will have from forty to fifty hands employed, so that the industry will not be lost to Kingston. Instead it will be operated upon a larger scale. The goods turned out are of the best in Canada. The company's assets will be handed over to Mr. Hughes by H. S. Smith and R. F. Elliott, on behalf of the stockholders. Canadian Trees on Graves.
