In Austria, Prussia, Rassia, Italy and Spain, all the monarchs of the ancient houses of Europe with dread and fear bowed to the will of this little French= man, and in France he was beloved and worshipped, and there was hardly marily an intimate, personal story that brings to life the famous _ historic characters, Napoleon, Mary "Louise, Wellington and others. The State Department of the United States Government should be moved to Hollywood. _ Just as many countries are represented in the film capital as in Washington, D.C. a man or woman < in all of France who would not give their lives with but three words on their dlips, "Vive L‘FEmpereur.‘" "A Royal Divorce," the big picture that comes to the Crystal Theatre Oct. 29, 30 and 31, is the story of that wonâ€" derful personality, Napoleon Bonaâ€" parte. â€"The picture, despite the two million dollars spent in staging the Batâ€" tle: of. Waterloo, the Imperial Courts of Europe and other big scenes, is priâ€" It tells of Vienna, Vienna the greal of preâ€"war days and,â€" Vienna during and after the war, but old, grey Vienna at all times. â€" Its lovers are a little girl who is one of the slaves of the Prater, Vienna‘s Coney Island, and Count Max yon Hohenegg, who is as important. as all that, and quite unattainable for peasant â€" girlsâ€"respectably, _ that . is. Mary Philbin, prophesied as one of the biggest ‘feminine possibilities | of the filra futuré, is the gigl. | Norman Kerry is the man," Fhe balance of the cast includes George: Hackathorne;, Cesare Gravina, Edith Yorke, Lilian Sylvester, Anton Vaverka, Al Edmundson, Doroâ€" thy Wallace, Spottiswoode Aitken, Sidâ€" ney, Bracy, George Seigmann, Dale Fuller and other capable artists. (One of the most thrilling moments is when the emperor, and aged Franz Joseph himself, enter the.. hall, with the audience. tensing â€" with the awe which. is always inspired «by . royalty. Thescenes so intimatedw revealing the life of the illâ€"fated emperor. have a historical yvalue that will he more apâ€" preciated as time goes on than may now be generally realized. Wig "Merryâ€"Goâ€"Round" is a love story, a sweet, compelling dove story, with its tragic, bitter elementsâ€"realities of an unpleasant worldâ€"put with . the whole dramaâ€"softened by the touch of some divine understanding of human love. j f All the magical gaiety of preewar Vienna was: revived‘ at) Universal City, and the: brilliance ofâ€"aâ€"court reception is vividly presented. _ The merry miliâ€" tary attaches, beautiful. gowned women, the blaze of jewels, and theâ€"swing and rhythm of the throng â€"to â€" the _rich strains of Strauss and Lehar, all enter the picture. > ./ R : On a gorgeous set which is a reâ€" production of the. audience hall â€"of the Imperial Palace inâ€" Vienna. during. the reign of Emporer Franz Joseph, some of the most magnific¢ent court, scenes ever filmed were "shot." .: The flash of manyâ€"colored. uniforms, the glitterâ€" of gold braid, the scintilâ€" lation of officers‘ sabres.and all the sparkle and pomp. of the military of Austria before the war; this is the background for scenes. in "Merryâ€"Goâ€" Round," which comes to the Oakwood Theatre next. Monday, . Tuesday and Wednesday. The scenic effects are unimaginably beautiful, thanks to excellent camera work and direction . of | Chester M. Franklin. The cast consists of Claire Adams, Walter McGrail, Wat Hartigan, Myrtle Owen, Charles Stevens, Fred Huntley, and Rintintin, the police dog. GAY VIENNA MIRRORED and ]ml‘T dozen young puppies. . It is big drama throughout that you get in this Warner Brothers classic of the screen, one of the strongest northâ€" wood stories ever filmed.. The story, in brief outline, deals with Shad, Galloâ€" way, the tyrannical factor of a trading post, who tries to get Gabriel Dupre, ‘a young trapper, out of the way, so that he can pursue / his designs on young Felice McTavish. To effect this, he organizes a band of outlaws to wayâ€" lay the trapper, who is shot, left for dead, and saved in the nick of time by a prowling, hungry dog. This dog has been bred among the wolves from puppyhood, but immediately recognizes a master in the min, and proves ‘the instrument of. vengeance against Galâ€" loway. i Be that as it may, "Where the North Begins" is a picture worth secing, enâ€" Joying, and recommending to _ your neighhor, for it is splendid and interestâ€" compelling from the moment the picâ€" ture opens with the scene of the puppy bound for the Hudson Bay trading post, to the end where, after the gripâ€" ping melodramatic situations, the wolfâ€" dog trots into the cabin with its mate and hal¢ dozen voung puppies. . It is a little difficult to say what are the elements ~conducive to the thrill of pleasure which this picture produces. Sometimes one is tempted to attribute the excellence to the almost uncamny acting of Rintintin, . the police dog, whose histrionic talent is nothing short of genius; sometimes it seems as if the story itself has the stuff that proâ€" duced the thrills; and then it looks again as if it might be the wonderful cast. "Where the North Begins," which opens at the Oakwood next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, is one of the few pictures that can be praised withâ€" out reservation. , The reason lies in its bigness, its sincerity, the rich drama that courses through it like healthy blood through avstrong man. was producing the picture.

B. Baker, 5th line, near Wesâ€" ton (known‘ as the old Kerr Farm) deâ€" stroying the contents, also implements, several hens and one pig. ~The buildâ€" ing contained the entire season‘s conâ€" tents of hay afx?d, grain, also some imâ€" plements,, the, balance being in adjoinâ€" ing sheds, alsopthe hen house and pigâ€" gery, all of which provided fuel for the flames. The fire started in one of the lofts, and in this way gained conâ€" siderable: headway . before discovered, but with the first alarm given neighâ€" bors came from every direction to give aid, and: the roadway. was a veritable blockade of motor cars, owned by those wlho had seen the blaze, which illumâ€" inted the sky and could be seen for miles, but in spite of the brave efforts on the. part of the fireâ€"fighters, nothâ€" ing ‘could be done to save either the barn or the contents.. Good work was doneby all, and it required persistent watching jand ‘much / stamping out of flames catching onto the grass from the flying sparks, to prevent it spreadâ€" ing to â€"other buildings several yards distant. ‘~ Weston, â€" Silverthorm _ and Fairbank fire brigades all turned out to give assistance,, but . were unable to save the buildings, owing to lack.of water.. The total loss is estimated at $10,000 and is only partially covered by insurance. . In addition to this the loss of, housing. ‘accommodation _ for stock and feed for same at this time of the year cannot be estimated in dolâ€" lars and cents, and the sympathy of the community goes out to Mr. Baker in the heavy loss he has sustained.

"The Church can help these others, but they cainot help the Church. If these organizations were robbed of the moral inspiration that the Church supâ€" plies, they would all gsoon fail. The Church is to know herself possessed of a gospel of grace and to proclaim it with the full assurance of faithâ€"a gosâ€" pel so vital to the welfare of the race that it is to humanity‘s eternal peril to reject it. By this gospel individuâ€" als, families, races, have been brought into the love of \ God, and spiritual forces have been liberated in the world that have made all good things that we enjoy possible. ‘The scientific philâ€" osopher, brooding over the ills of huâ€" manity, declares that redemption is impossible; but the Church optimistiâ€" cally proclaims that all is evangelically hopeful." "The Church is not in competition with the State, philanthropic and reâ€" form organizations, or. with brotherâ€" hood societies, but is in hearty coâ€"operâ€" ation with them," said Rev. E. Ryerson Young of Islington last night in the mew Mimico â€"Methodist Church, on the cecasion of their anniversary services. "Where there is no organized society, the Church, through its ministers and missionaries, tries to bring about law and order and to minister to the needs of suffering humanity and educate the ignorant. But where there is an efâ€" ficient State to maintain law and order and provide for the educatiqn of the youth, and special socicties to deal with hospitals, reform and relief, the Church says to them all, ‘These are all good works, do them.
