Dad Comes in for His Share of Publicity in New Movie From Pen of Rupert Hughes

By JAMES TV. DEAX NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—When “Remembrance” comes to town, take scour “old man" around to the movie theater to see It. He will enjoy It, You won't. Not if you’re the kind that refers to the head of the house as the “Old Man' and looks upon him as a meal ticket and a drawing account. Rupert Hughes has fashioned this photoplay after the style of “The Old Nest," only he has dressed it in trousers rather than in skirts. Hughes pictures the father as devoting his entire energies toward making money for the other members of the family to spend. After he has made it possible for them to enjoy the things they most wanted in life, he finds there is little place in their scheme of existence for him. As one of the boys said, “You couldn't get Pop into a dress suit unless you blindfolded him and backed him Into it.” That was after the family had taken to formal dress for dinner every evening. And as Pop put it. “Those interior decorators haven’t left a place for me to set or lay.” Os course, someone had to correct him for his bad English. -I- -!* *!• Claude Gillingwater is pop, Kate I.ester is Mom. and Patsy Ruth Miller and CuUen Landis have the chief juvenile roles in “Remembrance.” All of them are able players, but none arises to any great heights in this picture. Hughes as the director allowed Gillingwater to etch too heavily the principal character and the others

The subtitles of “Remembrance” give it the intimate little touch that makes the characters seem real. Pop recalls the time when Mom had no butler to announce dinner. She came out of the kitchen and said: “Come on, Honey, what we got’a on the table.” When Pop returned home after a hard day’s work, he didn’t just walk in the door. Hughes put a punch in that simple act with a subtitle that read: “His feet were just like a pair 1 of old horses that had led him home.” -I- -I- •!• The Screen Scroll Alice Calhoun’s latest picture is I "Little Wildcat.” Since the title was j announced she has received a menagerie of kittens from her friends..

BLAMES PRICE OF BEER Head of British Labor Party Has Explanation for Industrial Unrest. By United Netet LONDON, Sept. 13. —Social unrest? Blame it on the high cost of beer. If the price of beer were reduced much of the present restlessness would disappear. That opinion, expressed at the annual meeting of the British Medical Association, is indorsed by J. R. Clynes, head of the labor party. “A great deal of the dissatisfaction among the workers Is due to the high cost of beer,” Clynes commented. "Most of the men are content with the strength of the beer, but there is an overwhelming demand for a reduction in price.” Autumn Colors Autumnal colors are the vogue now, browns, reds and yellows are combined in the same costumes with excellent effect.

Melon and Refreshment Stands Now Sei~ve Heavy Tourist Traffic on Country Roads

“Melluns For Sale.” Farmers along the main roads, the byroads and every country lane have awakened to the possibilities in the tourist traffic passing every day. They have solved the question of high trans portation costs and middleman’s profit by the expedient cf drawing customers to the front doors. In the twenty-five mile drive to Martinsville there were counted over forty stands at the roadside where were offered every conceivable product from “ice cold” apple cjder to “fine chicken dinners.” \ Some of the stands were pretentious affairs, carefully erected to protect the watermelons and cantaloupes from the sun—and incidentally to shield the salesmen—while other enterprising growers had merely spread their wares on the parched grass in most unappetizing manner. One farmer guaranteed absolutely fair treatment by advertising he sold watermelons by weight. Even after the cost of gasoline, oil and wear and tear on the car are taken into consideration, the thrifty householder can save himself money by buying his fruit for "putting up” in this manner. Peaches, for example, while selling for $1.75 to $2.50 on city markets, could be bought for $1 to $1.50 —"if you’ve got your own basket"- —directly from the producer. One orchardist even went a little below i that price—and allowed the prospective buyer to pick his own fruit from the heavily laden trees. He, however, was an exception, as most fanners

for fear of damage to the delicate trees. The children, too, have the fever of sell*ng something to the tour sts from the city. One little chap advertised are not willing to take any chances Wow, Oklahoma Means Rest as Night Comes On By United Xeics OKLAHOMA CITY. Okla., Sept 13. —Hurrah, Okla., is by no means a 9 o'clock town. It’s earlier than that. The only person who stays up late ! is the night watchman. Then he rings the 9 o'clock curfew and goes home down lonely, darkened streets. The clanging of the curfew, heard all over the village, has frequently aroused the citizens and likewise their ire. They want the only noise, that 9 o’clock clang-clang, hushed. A delegation of the town’s citizens ! came here, registering vigorous protest. They want something done about about it The county attorney listened, sorrowfully. The citizens wanted to file a complaint against the night watchman. The county attorney was willing, but he discovered that under an j ordinance recently passed it was the ' duty of the watchman to sound the gong, even if no one except those in bed had to listen to it.

fresh apple cider and signalled each passing car with a glass of the tempting drink held in each hand. When he had inveigled a customer to stop he immediately tried to sell them some "pikling” cucumbers—evidently oulls from his father’s crop. He confided he was hoping to pay his own way to high school next winter with the proceeds of his summer sales. Probably the most gratifying thing was the lack of any spirit of profiteering at most of the stands. The products on the little traveled side roads, however, were noticeably cheaper than those doing a rush business on the main roads.
