COMMUNTY

SERVICE

Thomas E. Picket-ill. member of the national start of Community Service, Incorporated, with headquarters at New York City, is in Hammond and Lake county for th purpose of interviewing representative citizens and groups relative to the National Community Service movement which is being adopted by many cities throughout the country. Playgrounds, community singinr. immunity dramatics, pageants and community center work constitute a part of the activities of the Community Service movement. Mr. Pickerill is not in the city for the purpose of organizing the work, but to find out whether the community

of Hammond desires such a move

ment. In an interview. Mr. Pickerill said: "It is not play for play's saU that we advocate the extension of recreation facilities. The real purpose Is to foster better citizenship and a greater, community service When people play together and sing together they will work and plan for their community together. It is the neighborhood spirit that we are after; to, revive the good eld traditions of neighborhood and community life that justifies the existence of the Community Service movement. "Nor have we forgotten the exservice men for whom the parent organization. War Camp Community Service existed," continued Mr. Pickerill. "To enjoy the democracy for which the boys fought, should be our earnest endeavor, and to bring into participation everybody in the community regardless of creed,, politics, wealth or power. The air of Community Service, if adopted in Hammond, would be to make every citizen feel that he really 'belongs,' to make him a booster for his city. And this Is accomplished In a large measure by making the leisure time of the people more expressive and more valuable to themselves and. to the community through community-wide recreation, vacant lot play, community music, athletics, and other leisure-time activities that are wholesome for old and young." "The character of an organization is known by the people behind it and the fact thai among the officers of the Nations Community Service organization are such people as Myron T. Herrlck, Joseph Lee. Raymond B. Fosdlck, Clement Studebaker. Hugh McK, Landon and Mrs. Thomas A. Edison, is evidence that the organization has a nation-wide prestige and that It will keep Its agreements to the letter." There are nearly two hundred Community Service cities in the country, among those of Indiana being Ft. 'Wayne. Elkhart, Goshen, Wabash, Marion, Michigan City, Lafayette Whiting and others. Mr. Pickerill is scheduled to speak before the East Chicago Chamber of Commerce tomorrow evening. He will remain In Hammond several days.

FINE BILL

THRILL S did you say! You will experience every known variety of thrills while watching "Foolish Wives." You will curse man and his

power over women; you will boil with rage at the foolishness of women; you will weep for the poor deBerted husband; you will flush with hatred at the arch villian. and shudder with horror at some of his deeds; you will feel a personal response to the ardent love scenes; your eyes will feast on the gorgeous settings; you will be carried along with the gaiety of the Monte Carlo Casino and the ultra-smart, pleasure seeking throngs. You will despise and at the same time grudingly admire the sneering. insolnt adventurer to whom all women are fair prey. You will run the gamut of every emotion while watching the mclodramtic story unfold on the screen. Besides these dramatic thrills there are spectacular scenes which make you hold your breath, and sit with your hands gripping the arms of your chair while the chills pJay tag up and down your spine. Your heart will fWip a beat or two when you see the man and woman ill a small boat on a raging lake with the water swirling around them and the already half submerged boat rapidly filling with water. But you

twill breath a sigh of relief when

finally stumbling and falling again and again the man with the woman ira his arms reaches the swampy shore and safety. AVhether you are a gambler or not you cannot help but feel yourself grow as tense as the faces around the roulette table as the wheel spins around and you see the money swept away from the gamblers, and realize that around this gambling table many fortunes are lost and won In a single evening. Tou will shiver with excitement when you see the man and woman trapped in a high tower with the flames shooting up all around them. The helplessness of the victims, the rapidly mounting flames, the dashing arrival of the fire department only augment your excitement, until you find yourself holding your breath for fear the firemen cannot reach the doomed couple. Then the life net is spread anfl once more those chills run up and down your uplne as you see fhe entrapped couple poised for the long jump into the net

Dramatic, emotionally (exclting. spectacular, no more wonderful picture has ever been shown on the screen than Vniversal's super-production of "Foolish Wives," which opens at the Parthenon theater today, for a week's run.

classic 'by, Alexander Dumas, 'The Three Musk.ite.frs" and added to I from the Momcirs of D'Artagnan, this feature is said to embody more that is adventurous, romantic and dramatic than !t has ever before been possible to incorporate in a

j film vehicle. The feats of swordsmanship alone ' in this picture are said to be worth the price of admission. Added to

that are a specially arranged prologue and a musical accompaniment

written to order for the production by Louis Gottschalk. one of the best contemporary composers. This picture comes to the Bijou following a remarkable run in New York where it was shown at the Lyric Theatre and given the unanimous approval of Broadway. Fred NIblo. who directed Pouglas Fairbanks in "The Three Muskateers" was formerly a Cohan and Harris star in the "speakies."

THOSE FRYING PAN NOISES The twenty year old story of the motorist who had several parts of his car left over after he had finished re-assembling it, is being parailed by many radio fans these days They are on the trail of the noises in the phones those "frying" noises, you know for if you're a radio enthusiast you ihave undoubtedly heard them too. These noises usually go right on after the thorough over-hauling has been completed. Some of those on the "inside" have traced the "noise" to the polarization which is constantly taking place in the commonly used dry "B" battery. A liq-uid battery, it is

i said, does not produce these char

acteristic sounds because this internal action does not take place. To supply the demand for a noiseless and otherwise more satisfactory B" battery, the Willard Storage Battery Company has designed a new rechargable battery, each cell of which is enclosed in an individual glass Jar. The extra heavy plates in this new battery are insulated by this company's Thread-

i ed Insulation and the whole group

connected in series with burned on lead connectors.

Ninety-eight per cent of American Industries employ less than 100 men..

AT THEBIJOU "The Thee Muskateers." coming to the Bijou theatre next Sunday for a seven day stay is announced by Sam Shlaes. house manager as te most gripping and spectacular film ever produced bjf Douglas Fairbanks. Bised on that universally read

MAE TINEE, CHICAGO TRIBUNE, SAYS "Universal comes across BIG! Under th

ministrations of Erich von Stroheim, 'Foolish Wives,' so long advertised as a wonder

picture, proves to be that thing. The picture is eleven reels long, is filled with surprises Eleven reels is a long picture, but if for one moment you find yourself bored this time.
