SCOPES TRIAL JUDGE WEEPS AT MEMORIAL i Raulston Flays Darrow Bitterly and Praises Bryan in Chicago. Bi CHICAGO^ e,B Aug. 10. —Attacking Clarence Darrow as the “agnostic defense counsel,” Judge John T. Raulston, who presided at the recent Scopes evolution trial in Dayton, Tenn., aroused an audience of Darrow’s town folk to wild cheering during the course of a sermon at the William Jennings Bryan memorial services here Sunday. Raulston reviewed the Scopes trial from beginning to end. He had only praise for*the "great Bryan” and only criticism . for _ “the agnostic counsel.” Judge Weeps Weeping throughout the address as he touched on such themes as the possibility of his own parents having sprung from lower forms of animal life, Judge Raulston declared: “Mr. Bryan didn’t believe* in evolution and I don’t believe in it either. I don’t believe God made a miserable monkey and then let nature do the rest. “I believe in a God than can answer prayers. I believe in a real God, not in a wooden God.” Crowd in Tears The lanky Tennessee judge charged that “Clarence Darrow I tried to destroy Mr- Bryan politically any way he could.” A large portion of the crowd was in tears when Raulston finished and crowded around him in such numbers that he was required to spend almost an hour shaking hands: before h,e could leave the hall.

Modern Debutante Sails In and Nearly Makes a Wreck Out of Old Aunt Augusta
By Walter D. Hickman r" LD Aunt Augusta was an aristocrat of the old Victorian school. She ruled her gigantic factories with an iron hand and she used the same pair of fists upon her family. Aunt Augusta’s word was the law and there was no appeal from her
decrees until Kennion Ruyiand married a modem debutante. Kery nion was Aunt Augusta’s nephew a.hd she had decreed that Kennion was going to marry the girl of her choice. Kennion had some ideas of his own, bo he goes to New York and marries a modern debutant. She was not the flapper type
Eugene O'Brien
but the “modem" girl who smokes, loves to motor, envoys smatt conversation and above all she loves the man of her choice. So into this gloomy home of magnificient suppression, Kennion brings his bride. Aunt Augusta 1 ; being a wise old dame, poured ice all over the new Mrs. fluyland. But the bride refused to freeze up. Aunt Augusta decided that her nephew was “to get rid of that woman” and the old lady launches a campaign of killing, with ice an kindness the spirit in Mrs. Kennion Ruyiand. Auntie was nearly successful with her plan. A 1 >ttlo of v its is played by both women but Aunt Augusta was just one magnificient bunch of old ideas and she was forced to melt under the human treatment of a modem woman. This is a bare outlire of the story "Siege,” written by Universal. To some people Aunt Augusta will be a puzzle because they will maintain ’hat “no such old woman’ ever existed. But the Aunt Augustas have lived in the Victorian period. Here you see the actual conflict of the present century against the old line rock-ribbed generation. Universal has in "3*ege” a dramatic production of many fine qualities. First of all. Mary Alden as the aristocratic Aunt Augusta does some acting which deserves being termed great. She is able to make Aunt Augusta even human inspite of the iron chains of a dead generation. So when the picture doe. 4 become slightly theatrical at the end, you feel that Mary Alden by her carefully sincere characterization has prepared you for this phase. Here is real powerful acting. You will “hate” Aunt Augusta and cry out for somebody to give her a sleeping powder but the character has been so wonderfully created by Miss Alden that Aunt Augusta becomes a living terror.

In this picture Marc MacDermott is cast as one of the Ruylands who is dumb, being a mute from birth. Aunt Augusta, by her cruel aristocratic power, has made even a greater wreck out of this lovely, but sad character. The death scene, really suicide, as played by MacDermott is masterful in its Implied horror. Virginia Valli is the debutante wife. Excellent. Eugene O'Brien is Kennion Ruyiand and, personally, I believe that he is the right type. There is a masterful 'direction befiind “Siege." Here is dramatic iqpvle entertainment which comes mighty near being one of the screen’s best contributions in this class of entertainment. Not to be missed by those who desire the very best dramatic entertainment. At the Colonial all week. T -I- -ICONCERNING A NEW STAR—NORMA SHEARER Recently a representative of one of the largest film concerns told me that "we would rather have Norma Shearer under our banner tfian any wonan in front of the camera today. A few hours after that, another representative told me that “Norma
Shearer in the years to come would occupy Mary Bickford’s throne.” It was with much interest that I went into the Ohio Sunday to see this "wonder woman of the screen.” In a cast that included Lew Cody, Mary Carr and William Haines, it was Miss Shearei wha raised it to enjoy-, able heights. Really, this . woman can do things with
'SStXX ilSf* 9
Norma Shearer
her eyes that few women can do. She actually makes ’em talk when on the screen. I really believe that this woman has the greatest pair of pantomime eyes of any woman on the screen. Her other great vir-tue-is that she can vamp when she wants to; she can wear gowns along with the most experienced and above all she can do that gingham, dress stuff with so must honest sincerity that it makes us* all believe in fairies and what not. You will see Miss Shearer in “A Slave of Fashion." a story of how a good girl, but clever, impersonated a wise dame who had jewels, fur coats, autos and the like Just for the asking. Our little heroine kept up the bluff until her alleged husband, in whose apartment she had not only established herself, but her mother.

The rich club man discovered what a clever little cheat our heroine was but Oh, happy ending. \ Os course the story is improbable, but Miss Shearer has the needed talent to “sell” this yarn with every foot—meaning every foot of the film. Mary Carr has 6ne of her sweet, but not dumb ipother roles. Splendid as usual. And Lew Cody Is the wise bird who discovers that he has a wife to whom, he hasn’t walked up the aisle. Smart fun that does not offend. Bill includes a comedy and music. At the Ohio all week. ' FRANZ MOLNAR GIVES I S A HEAVY PROBLEM The name of Franz Molnar is coupled with the understanding that he is a creater of ultra-smart stage plays. / It has been my thought in the past that Molnar's genius laid In his ability to create smart dialogue in contrasting smart European situations. Ke seems to enjoy having a nobleman and a poor man playing at the game of getting the same woman. That is the problem of "Fashions For Men” whikh has now been
given to the screen under the title of "Fine Clothes.” It is my thought just now that the director hasn’t given us sufficient English types to c. try the story over o that point nf being sufficiently satisfied that it is an English affair. I do not blame the cast for this Impression but rather the director I. as placed European a treesI phere in the movie. In other words, the treatment seems to be too Main
Alma Rubens
"streety.” At times, the director has caught the spirit of fun of contrasting types of men. Percy Marmont as Peter Hunger ford, an English haberdasher, nf times overplays the "sweetness" supposed to be in the character of this man. Maybe suoh a “good* man” is harder to act before the camera than on the stage. He is so good as played by Marmont that a rain storm would cause him to melt. And the fault of the movie may rest in Marmont and not the director. Alma Rubens as the girl whothought she sought fine clothes Instead of love, is' able to catch to a little extent the tantalizing fun that Molnar Is supposed to create. Lewis Stone as the titled Englishman who thinks he can “buy” love plays the

Their personal service and advice made authentic by long years of experiences provide tremendous benefit for the office manager, sales managers and executives of growing concerns. Cut Down Costs At present, says R. C. Hiller, Interest Is especially turned to Items of office equipment that will most appreciably cui down operating expenses. To meet this mid-summer need this house has a fine line of filing systems at popular prices and cabinets featured especially for the compactness ar.d efficiently and suitable for many different sizes of cards, checks, hills, etc. .These nre particularly adapted for executives and managers, being sinall and unobtrusive in small offices. Anew line of steel equipment is the line of the Canton Art Metal Company for which they recently became solo agents in Indianapolis. The line includes small card index cabinets, letter flies, legal flies, steel counter height files and steel shelving. * Prices Reduced Hiller says they have much of the supply of commercial stationery taken over in a receivers’ sale ar*d that the prices on this are considerably reduced. From now on, Hiller pointed out, wise office managers will be looking to the supply of office equipment for the fall business. Their service and advice is always gladly gltan whether the customer is a purchaser'

DIX USES AN . • OLD SUCCESSFUL FORMULA Richard Dix in becoming a star in his own name is using the same formula which made a favorite of the late Wallace Reid. He is also havjng the same author, Byron Morgan, who turned out the racing comedies for Reid. This formula may work once from a box office standpoint for Dix, but lightning doesn’t strike twice in the same place. When Reid was famous for this sort of entertainment, his movies didn’t rely an exaggerated race to put the movie
over. The late comedian had the necessary talent tol put it over. The fact is that Frank Tuttle has had more to do with the probable success of “The Lucky Devil” than Dix did. Tuttle directed the movie and by stacking a race scene with all the possible hokum in the world has saved the film from being Just an average film. It Is this

trick and impossible race scene that gives the picture what punch it 1 possesses. And Reid It will be remembered generally had the services of Theadore Roberts and Dix Is denied this help. "The Lucky Devil” Is not bad entertainment, but I hope that Dix will be permitted to develop in his own way. Dix Is and can be an Individual comedian. In this picture the ability of Frank Tuttle is more pronounced than that of the star. And yet the audience at the Apollo, when I was present, applauded Dix often, especially during the race scene. The first part of the picture is splendid for Dix as it gives him a good romantic chance. The bill includes a comedy and | music. At the Apollo all week. The Isis for the first half of the

VASER COMPANY MEN CARE FOR PRINT MACHINES Eight Skilled Workmen Are Great Aid to the Publishers. To the uninitiated the delicate mechanisms that make up printing, book binding and repair machines appear as a vast maze of unintelligible bits of metal that mysteriously work together to produce the books we love. To the skilled mechanics employed by the Vaser Machine Company, 420 S. Pennsylvania St., they are merely the result of the days’ work. Vs© Skilled Men E. M. Vaser, proprietor, has had the shop about four years and employs men skilled In the manufacture and repair of all kinds of machinery used In a printing and publishing house. Eight men working for this company have done expert work all over Indiana and Kentucky setting up apd repairing printing machinery. In the shop itself are made the parts to be replaced. Several men remain in the shop for this purpose and Vaser points out that often they can manufacture parts there for less than they can buy them from the larger factories. There is a saving of time, also. World of Benefit The printing and publishing establishments whose great effort is to produce first-class work In record time, this shop’s service and dependability means a w-orld of benefit. The fact that only experts ar© employed by the Vaser Company makes it lndespensable to the efficient publishing house that looks well to Its mechanical as well as Its production phase.
