AT THE DeLTJXE If you can visualize a man who Is a -oleortertst. a domestic happiness

expert, a former mule driver, who doesn't cuss and still Is a man, then you have a fairly good mental picture of 'Clarence," whose exploits form the 'basis of the Paramount picture of the same name coming to the DeDuxe theatre next Saturday. But even with this mental picture you have not ibeen told of the strafgly hair of Clarence, nor of his huge tortoise-shell spectacles and lots of other Idiosyncrasies which help make him an unforgettable figure, in this production. Above all else, Clarence Is an extremely likable chap, and all because he happens Into the Wheeler family Just In time to prevent the family breaking up. Barking and iblting has set the nerves of each member on edge and the inevitable Is about to happen, when along comes Clarence, and with a calm wprd here, a soft caress there and a clever display of diplomacy and tact at all times, he rebuilds the tottering house of cards into a mansion of peace and happiness. Just how. Clarence does this can-' not "be adequately describd for there is a subtle something to it, which defies description. Booth Tarklngton however, saw it and wove it Into the famous plAy from which the picture was adapted. As "Clarence," Wal lace Reld has never done anything which quite eq-jals his droll humor and likablsneas In this part. Hf receives excellent support from Agnes Ayres as Violet PInney, while May McAvoy makes a sparkiling sue. cess In the sub-deb role of Cora Wheeler.

AT IRVING SCHOOL'S OPEN HOUSE Open house at Irving school last night attracted scores of parents.

Hammond dentists are each contributing one half day a month to work at the school dental clinic, open for one half each school day.Miss Margaret Patterson was In charge of the entrancing tableau presenting 130 tiny tots sipping milk. Crackers and milk com prise a dally diet for the children. More than 4.000 bottles of milk are consumed monthly. Four hundred of these are donated Iby the Ham. mond Dally Co.. to the needy children whose parents are usable to pay for it. L. Caldwell, school superintendent. Dr. H. D. Kuhn, the school health director, and Dr. GilIts, one of the chool dentists and Herbert Cortrlght, principal of the building, addressed a crowd that overflowed the school auditorium at the conclusion of the evenlng'e program. (Mrs. Lula Hansen and Miss Jesse HusBey were the two white robed nurses who lent an air of immaculate neatness and efficiency to the dental chamber. Miss Edna Sweetland is the poet Laureate of the school. Her "Hammond Beach and Walkikl" appearing in the Hammond teachers' "Outlook" Is a novel thought Jn a pretty dress.
