RADICALS RIDICULE POINCARE DURING chamber™ Premier Given Cool Reception, Though Ruhr Policy Is Applauded. By United Press PARIS. March 31. —Premier Poincare received a cool reception from the Chamber of Deputies today when he read his ministerial declaration and presented the new cabinet. Frequent interruptioifs and laughter came from the left benches. Poincare was not his old fighting self. His hands trembled and he appeared noticeably overstrained. Angry at his interrupters, the premier stopped. -Name of a dog:” shouted Deputy Lacotte, radical leader, “cannot we laugh?” Poincare retorted he would reread his sentences each time there was an interruption. At one time he read a phrase seven times. The white-haired, white-bearded little statesman shook with rage as radical deputies ridiculed his announcement of the new ministers, because four of them were Poincare's opponents, and politicians feel he has made a political compromise. When the reading was over the premier demanded the chamber postpone the interpellations until Tuesday. The deputies finally agreed. Scattered applause greeted Poincare's remarks on occasions and really hearty applause when he referred to continuance of the Ruhr po.icy.

Concerning Signora Duse

Eleonora Duse today again became a tradition as well as a memory. This old woman has left Indianapolis for Pittsburgh. Pa., to continue her tour in America before she returns to Italy to retire again. I am binding only myself by these remarks concerning the appearance Duse in “The Closed Door at the Murat Saturday night. She is old. yes. and handicapped by that fact she remains the commanding figure of the stage through all these years. Duse and Bernhardt have been names of magic on the stage for years. One has left us and the other seems to be waiting for the final curtain. Duse possesses the most marvelous hands and eyes I have ever seen. There seems to be a tongue in every finger as gesture talks. And her eyes—even the years roll away when she Hashes her eyes or they become heavy with tears. r never hat" seen Duse before until Mrs. Ona 3. Talbot presented her at the Murat. To me she has always len wealthy in tradition. I have lonc-ert to see her and I am happy in • • experience. I was not disappr.trjted. i saw several flights of the emotional work I have ever witnessed upon the stage or ever hope to see. Even Dreams Come True I have always dreamed of the day when I cou'd see Duse. Many in the audience Saturday have had the same dream. To me it was like a dream coming true. It was in the second act and in the final minute of the last act that Duse climbed to the mountain tops and showed us not only the flicker from the candle of genius, but she showed us genius. She was surrounded with a remark able company Memo Benass: as ;he son came mighty near walking away with the honors and would have if I>use was not present. Deo Orlandini also is a grat artist. These three cried real tears in the- second act. Duse was given a remarkable ovation and she was lovely in answeting the applause and sharing It with her company. It was strange to many of us tc see actors turn back upon the audience and act if an audience was not present. Ona B. Talbot deserves the credit of bringing Duse to Indianapolis. It was a big job splendidly done. Reviewed by W. D. H.

‘Maytime’ Is Pretty Play of Yesterday; Wright’s Western Story Films Well

By WALTER D. HICKMAN r""“J TMOSPHERE of yesterday is I found in “Maytime.” It is a film version of Ridu Johnson Young'3 play of Little Old New- York of yesterday with a finale which brings it up to the present day. As I watched “Maytime” unfolded on the Apollo screen yesterday it

Seemed to me that a mighty pretty little bit of sentiment had been brought to filmland. Period or costume plays have been in high favor. More than half of this movie Is devoted to the days when N*-w York was still young and the girls wore nice hoop skirts. Then the modem day arrives with its short skirts and jazz parties.

HARRTSON FORD

Those principally engaged in this quaint little story with a modern endii s are Harrison Ford. Clara Bow, Ethel Shannon, William Norris, Josef Swickard and others. For my part I liked the “yesterday” part of the story much more than I cld the modern section because the romantic side photographs so well in the first part. You recal the old saying that the whole world loves a lover. This applies to the first part of the photoplay. There is something pleasant in seeing a pretty girl of quality, dressed in a hoop skirt, making love to a chap who is only a gardener on the family estate/ Os course the girl’s father thought the family honor was going to be ruined if his daughter married a man who carried a garden spade into the family circle. So the young lovers conceal a love note in a sugar bowl and bury it in the ground underneath an apple tree. The proud father of the girl forces his daughter to marry a no account snob and this breaks the gardener's romance and he marries another. The second part deals with the modem love affair of the grandchildren of these two couples. Here we get modem jazz and vhat it will do to a young fellow. Rather feel you will enjoy “Maytime” at the Apollo this week. Bill includes Harry Langdon in "Picking Peaches,” a news weekly, singing by Charles B. Lines and orchestral and pipe organ music.

MOVIE KEEPS PACE WITH BEST FICTION SEEDERS Many a best seller in fiction deals with the outlandish parties that the ' modern flapper and her hip flasked Romeo is supposed to stage every ; time they get together. In other words, the movies are only cashing in on the "best seller” idea in fiction. In other words, the screen is keeping up-to-date with the novel. T haven’t heard yet that the police have been called out to arrest the flapper in a novel called “Black Oxen.” “Daughters of Today” might be I branded as one of the “movie best sellers.” Indianapolis people packed : the Ohio yesterday to see how a bunch of young flappers and their i wild Romeos would cut up on the screen. Let us consider "Daughters of Today" in this light: It was made from a box office standpoint. It is ajl 1 jazzed up with alleged “wild parties” !of the younger set. The fact is the j story is nicely baited. And the dij rector has been a wise old owl. T suppose that the scene which will ] cause the talk and make the box office j happy will be the one devoted to a wild bathing party at night when a | bunch of flappers and their escorts | do not take the time to buy bathing suits but where their underwear, overalls and the like. Then after these young cutups get mixed much with a murder charge, i then the director turns loose the I “dear white haired mother stuff” and I hands out a moral. And so the day has been saved whether the flapper has or not. Those engaged in reckless make-be-lieve are Patsy Ruth Miller, Ralph Graves. Zazu Pitts. Phillips Smalley and numerous others. Personally, I ; don’t get excited about this sort of en- | tertainment, nor do T get a “kick” out jof it. It is corking box office ma ! terial. It's up to you if you want to see the midnight flappers on a water flapping escapade. No, I do not consider it indecent. • Ii is just another flapper of fiction.

SALTS FINE FOR ACHING KIDNEYS When Back Hurts Flush Your Kidneys as You Clean Yotir Bowels. Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, sometimes get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheumatic ’twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. Y'ou simply must keep your kidneys I active and clean and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kidney region begin drinking lots of water. Also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is intended to flush clogged kidneys and help stimulate them to activity. It also helps neutralize the acids In the urine so they no longer irritate, thus helping to relieve bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive; makes a de lightful effervescent lithia water drink which everybody should take now and then to help keep their kldnes's clean. A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in trying to correct kidney trouble while it is only trouble. By all means have your physician examine your kidneys at least twice a 1 ear.—Advertisement.

Many best sellers have been brought to the -screen and the first attempt to film a Wright novel is now on view at the Circle. “When a Man's a Man” was the author’s choice to have transferred to the screen. It is full of the popular

stuff —there is a chap who is just a tailor’s dummy, who .is turned down by the girl he loves. The “dummy” hikes West to make a man of himself and docs a corking good job of it. He turns out to be the best man in the whole picture. This story has some ripoing somedy in it, especially when the “dummy” at-

Buffin'-' j .

tempts to ride a DE MOTTE horse like a Western cowboy does. There is intrigue in the yarn, some romance as well as some real human touches. The "west” picture here looks like the real article. In the chief roles you will find John Bowers and Marguerite de la Motte. The cast and characters is in full as follows: Lawrence Kniyht John Bower* Helen Wakefield Marguerite do la Motte The Dean Forrest Robinson Yapaval Joe Georre Haekathorne Fhil Aoton Robert W. Frazer Kitty Reid June Marlowe Nlcx Cambcrt Fred Stanton Standford Manning Edward Hearne Little B:lly John Fox Jr. Jim Reid Charles Malles Taking It for granted that every body knows the story, so I will consider a few points on the way Wright's best seller was brought to the screen. The comedy points have been splendidly handled by Bowers. All characters seem real. That is the quality I find in all of Wright’s books —real men and women, some strong and others weak, but all flesh and blood characters. Bowers is the right sort to play the “dummy” who became a real man. I like the whole cast. Several times I had trouble in reading the sub-tit lea. Subtitles are just as important tbeae days as the act ; ng. Titles must be clear and easily read. Not aft aid to tell you to see this one. Understand the author is pleased with the film. The audience certainly was when I was present. The Circle's bill Includes "Katinka,” as played by the orchestra: "Family Life,” a comedy; organ music by Dessa Byrd; a Pathe Review; “Fun

STUDENT PACIFISTS FACEEXPULSION Movement at Northwestern Fostered by Legion, By United Press CHICAGO, March 31. —A movement to oust the pacifist "pinks" from the student body of Northwestern University was under way today. The movement was initiated by World War veterans following a patriotic mass meeting in tlie university gymnasium Sunday at which President Walter Dill Scott placed the University on record against the activities of the pacifist students. “The attitude of the university toward war is that we should risk our all in the defense of our nation,” President Scott declared in a speech. President Coolldge sent a telegram of commendation for the officials who promoted the meeting.

1. A FIRE HYDRANT is needed during an emergency, must be located without delay, and should be as conspicuous as possible. 2. FIRE OCCURS under all conditions of daylight and darkness, rain and shine, clear weather or Indianapolis smog. 3. TESTS AND EXPERIMENTS have developed the fact that Yellow is more conspicuous than Red, particularly with the background of our ordinary city street. 4. MANY PEOPLE are red-blind, to the extent that red does not stand out conspicuously from green in their vision. 5. EVEN to the NORMAL EYESIGHT, Yellow is more visible at night than Red, and much more visible in a fog or mist. 6. YELLOW DOES NOT fade as rapidly as Red, the coloring pigment being vegetable instead of mineral. 7. THERE IS LESS unconscious parking of automobiles in front of a Yellow Fire Hydrant than in front of one painted in the accustomed way. LFIRE CHIEF JOHN J. O’BRIEN approves Yellow for Fire Hydrants as being a better color than Red.
