■ Farmers:L. *M ' Demand Comfort In Your IT<C2j WORK SHOES You might us well tear the foundation from under your house, take the tires off your auto, lake the springs out of vour bed and lay on a couple of fence rails as to deliberately buy a pair of shoes that are uncomfortable. Our Horse Hide Bulls are wonderful for comfort and bears for wear. Just ask some fellow that is wearing them and vou’ll think he’s stretching it when he tells you how comfortable and how long they wear.

The local screen never has presented anything more tender and more beautiful than the William Fox picture “Over the Hi 11,,” which will open at the Crystal Theatre tonight. The story is based upon a theme that is on stranger in literary and dramatic works; but seldom, if ever, has the subject of divine mother love received so reverent and dignified an exposition as is revealed in tho beautiful screened story adopted from two poems that have been recited more in school room and anolurhtcpleeet schoolroomandonethe school room and on the lecture platform than those of any other American poet. Wil! Carleton, whose “Farm Bal lads” captured the popular heart many years ago, provided tho motif of the story, which Paul If. Sloane, a wellknown young screen writer, has worked into one of the strongest picture playes ever devised. zThe remarkable exposition of the little mother's life story found it waydeep into the hearts of men and women alike. “Over the Hill” has score a triumph here, as it, did during its run of one solid year on Boardway, New York. The latest accessory is a kind of whistle that gives warning when tho gas tank gets low?
