5 2 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1923 23 -- Photodramas r The New Evanston J r | Adelphi Theatre A his 4 J Following a sensational success with Harold Lloyd's "Safety Last," the New Evanston is now "packing them in" with that great drama "Rug- gles of Red Gap," starring Lois Wil- son and Ernest Torrence. The play will remain at the theater over the week-end. On Monday, Gloria Swanson and H. B. Warner will grace the New Evanston silver sheet in the film ver- sion of that great French production, "Zaza," made famous on the stage and in opera. "Zaza" is Gloria Swanson's latest picture and is accounted by many critics as her very best effort. Mr. Warner's appearance in the picture is especially interesting at this time in view of the fact, he is being so favor- ably received in the spoken drama, "You and I," now playing at the Play- house.

Special instructions have been issued, however, that the investigations shall be conducted with as little annoyance to the taxpayers as possible. Where unreported income is dis- closed by investigations made by field deputies under the law the max- imum penalties must be imposed, but where the taxpayers voluntarily re- port mistakes in filing returns the policy of the bureau is to be as lenient as the law will permit. With the ninety thousand district warrants inherited when she took of- fice now reduced to three thousands, Collector Mabel G. Reinecke of this district, declares that her deputies are now ready to do good work in the! new drive. Palmer E. Anderson, chief field dep- uty of the district, will be charged with the duty of overseeing the work of the field deputies throughout the 30 northern counties of Illinois.
