Not since that delightfiil comedy "In Walked | Jimmy," has "Rex" had a real "Rex" part, but the last half of this {week of the popular comedy he comes into his own again, in one of {those uproarious comedy parts, that | while you laugh, gives you a little | tug at your heart. This comedy aside {from being entertaining, like "In | Walked Jimmy," carries a great les- son, and that fs a lesson of Self- | Confildence--without egotism. It !shows that a man without confidence [in himself will never reach the | heights of 2a man's desire, but that a {man, who, without being afflictad with a "swelled head' can have ab- undant confidence In himself and really believe what he thinks, can conquer the world. Zana Vaughn as {The Flapper, has a truly delightful | part, and our Bill Yule as "Pops" Is immense. Billy Seymour and How- ard Brown have good parts, as has "Kid" Kelly. "What's Wrong With the Women?" The eternal battle of the sexes, raging from the very dawn of the human race, is the-theme of Daniel atic and prophetic photoplay "What's Wrong With the Women?" now play- ing at the Allen theatre. Woman, ac- cording to the view of Mr. Good- man, long noted as a writer and pro- ducer of plays for the stage and screen, has realized that if she is to hold her own in this, one of life's greatest battles--the battle of her own sex--she must borrow from the weapon's of experience. That is why, Mr. Goodman shows in bold and powerful strokes, she does not dis- dain the rouge pot, the powder puff, the pencil, the art of the manicur- ist and the subtlety of the uress- makers. Mr. Goodman employs rea: his amazing story on the screen but he goes far beyond mere individuals He treats the theme as a massive human canvas--as a world problem for the answer to which great men have been vainly groping for centur- men?" {s not unkind to,womanhood. It is in no sense a sermon or propa- | ganda in behalf of mere man. But it reveals the modern woman in all {her strength and weaknesses and shows b eans of a tremendously dramatic human story how woman, in the present high-powered era of !jazz and bootleggers, can best serve | society. In the cast are such noted {players as Wilton Lacksaye, Barbara | Castleton, Montague Love, Huntley | Gordon and Julia Swayne Gordon. At The Strand.

RELEASE OF THE DARYAW. Was Effected by the Pyke Towing and Salvage Company. The Pyke Towing & Salvage Company brought the schooner Mary Daryaw to the city Tuesday evening, The Daryaw ran ashgre in a driving snow " storm nday morning, grounding and filling with water, The boat was in a very dangerous position. The Pyke Company were callad Tuesday morning, and after remov- ing two hundred tons of coal, the pumps were placed and started, Af- ter considerable pulling the boat was floated and brought to the city, with the pumps working. The Daryaw is the only schooner out of the four that went ashore in Sunday night's storm saved so far. Captain Daryaw considers himsel? very fortunate that the Pyke Com- pany did such excellent work as his boat would have also been a total loss the following day. Captain Pyke is arranging to bring out from Engand a British wreek- ing tug. With this, the Pyke Com- pany would have one of the finest wrecking tugs on the Great. Lakes. Buch a tug is needed at the foot of Lake Ontario.

Whenever there is an unusually icebergs move {from their accepted routes In the most erratic manner.

They were not to be destroyed, but, merely hunted down. In this way | mariners could sail with a certain | feeling of safety. i This patrol was instituted by the United States Government, and though only some eight years old, it has done very good work already. | The patrol boat is called the An- | droscogsin, and she is specially fitted ; out to withstand the dangers of the ! Atlantic, | Such work as Androscoggin's crew | | have to do is obviously very trying. , | It calls for extreme nerve and expert seamanship. This vessel has to sail right into the teeth of the icefields. Every time she investigates, she runs the most awful risks of disaster | --but the other ships profit. Then | there are the elements to be consid- | ered--off Newfoundland storms, fogs ! | and bitterly cold weather are pra:ti- | cally constant. It is the Androscoggin's task to report the presence of bergs, both | large and small. She does this by | means of her wireless, giving the lati- i tude and longitude of the berg, with | some rough idea of its size and its | course, if moving. This information is wirelessed twice a day. If the ice conditions are very serious, messages are sent out every hour. These messages go direct to the Hydrographic Office of the American navy, at New York. | This in turn warns the various ship- | Ping offices and the press. Many interesting things have been discovered by the patrol boat. For instance, some mariners cling to the idea that iceberss wiil give | off an echo and can be destroyed by gunfire. Androscoggin found both | theories quite wrong. | But she did prove that so deli- | cately is a berg balanced that the | vibrations caused by the whistling of | a steamer's syren may break off ® Sometimes she met bergs with one or more high pinnacles that caught SER HAVE In the eternal quest of stretc ward this sale of all sales and those old bills reach----.

George Brown as a great steady- ing influence in the troublous times of the '60's, when relations between Britain and the United States. were delicate from a series of incidents in the Civil War, is recalled by Fred Landon, librarian of the Public Lib- rary at London, Ont, in an article in the Dalhousie Review, Halifax, en- titled "Canadian Opinion of Abraham Lingoln." "The North in its time of trial had no more steadfast friend in Can- ada than George Brown," writes Mr. Landon. "On the public platform and through the columns of the To- ronto Globe he championed the cause of Lincoln and freedom, and used every effort to influence Canaalan Public opinion in favor of the North, and stenuously opposed that small section of Canadian people who, chiefly located in Toronto and aping the upper classes in England, gave comfort to the South by aiding their blots in this country." The advocacy of Lincoln began when he was almost unknown m this country, but, after the Presiaent's declaration for emancipation, Brown said inthe Globe: "It is a bold step which Mr. Lincoln has taken, and it will be keenly criticized. But it is right as well as politic, and it will be sustained by the voice or the etvi- lized world. Four millions of men and women will cease to be chattels and will attain the dignity of human beings. Who shall say that wnis is too dearly purchased; even by the horrors of eivil war?" "By the time the election of 1864 had come around," adds Mr. Lan- dom, "Canadians generally would agree with the Globe's tribute to Lincoln's 'hcnesty, patriotism and practical ability," No Becca 14: ido. No Reciprocity, 'pg No reciprocity treaty with Canada is likely to be brought about, accord- ing to Senator McCumber, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. He Points out that the Tariff Act makes nd provision for reciprocity and that a special treaty would be needed. He doubts whether this could be arrang- ed or ratified by the Senate. Senator McCumber does not believe the tarifr law will seriously cut down importa- tions, and predicts it will not ser- lously divert Canadisd trade from the United States. es -- Mr. Raney's Treat.

THUNDEROUS FUSILADE ~~ ATTHE ARMOURIES Local Machine Gun Company Held a Practise on Wed- nesday Night. Local war veterans hed visions of another world conflict on Wednesday night--in fact many, so it is stated, had to rub their eyes and sit up and take notice. And all because of the thunderous fusilade which was tak- ing place at the Armouries, The big noise came from the Local Machine Gun Company, under command of Major James Harris, in connection with the annual training. Four sub- sections of "A'" platoon were firing, at the "application" practice, sev- eral hundred rounds of full charge cordite ammunition, firing at the Fate of five hundred rounds per minute. For the targets on the twenty-five ward range, the wall of the building was safeguarded by huge timber and sand rampart, two feet thick, erected by the Royal Canadian Engineers, for the night's firing. All ranks shot well, but special proficiency was not- iced among the recruits. A merit-sweepstake was held on the results, for three prizes, taste- fully constructed articles of jewelery and smokers' gear, all bearing the Machine Gun Corps badge, replicas in bronze or silver gilt. " Prizes were won by Gunners Laz: zell, Axford and Butler, the first by! a "possible" of 20 points, the other two being both one point behind. Of Lazzell and Axford, it may, be sald that this is the second time they have won prizes for machine gun shoot- ing this season. Their marksman- stip must be reckoned with et nexi week's elemeptary revolver shoot with the Machine Gunners, but the rest of. the Company's personnel promise to make it a close contest. ---------------- Remanded on' Charge.

' There is such a shortage of coal on Wolfe Island that unless the is- lariders are able to get fuel in the very near future there may be a very serfous situation, The shortage was such that on Wednesday the manager of the steamer Wolfe Islander ar- ranged for a special trip for the fs- landers who came to the city with their string of waggons to try and get coal. There were fifteen waggons on the steamer and the islanders | were able to re'urn with twenty-two | tons.! For years it has been the cus- tom on the island for one of the deal- ers there to bring in "wo boat lcads | lof coal. This year, on account of tha | #irike, the island coal dealer was un- able to get his supply, with the result that the islanders have to look else- where for their supply. : The Kings- ton coal dealers, who have always made the practice of looking after their regular customers first, find it | very difficult to give the islanders their winter supply. Wolfe Island fs in altogether dif- ferent position to the main land townships, on account of the lack of fire wood on the island. Years ago the people cut down most of the standing timber, with the result that to-day there are very few trees which could be used for fuel purposes, Mrs. Willlam Story, aged ninety- six years, one of Brockville's oldest residents, hag left to spend the wint- er with her daughters in 'Toronto.
