SPECIALS TO-DAY

CORN PRICES GO DP AS WASPS GO DOWN

CHICAGO. Nov. 20. Corn prices advanced to a moderate extent today in response to developments regarding submarines and owing to firmness of the New York stock market. Bulls in corn were checked, though by favorable -weather. Moreover, business lacked volume. Opening quotations, .which ranged from c to c higher, -with Jan. 116 and May $1.15 to 51.15, were followed by gradual further gains. General buying in small amounts lifted oats. Talk of two to four weeks more of large export demand had a strengthening effect. Provisions ascended with hogs and owing to a sharp advance at Liverpool, where the government had raised the maximum prices limit all along the line.

Before, and After Taking

Under the guise of food preservation, hotel and restaurant men of the country are accused of a shrewd attempt to lengthen the season in which birds and game are destroyed. The hotel and restaurant committee of the Food Administration, composed of sixteen men prominent in their line of business, have recommended that the United States Government urge the States to lengthen their game and fish seasons. Officers of tho National Association of Audubon Societies, the big bird protective organization of the country with a membership of over three hundred thousand, regard the

new move as a shrewd measure on the part of the hotel and restaurant men to try to get hold of more game sales. "Our knowledge of their past record in game matters," says T. Gilbert Pearson, Secretary of the Association, "leaves no other conclusion. The committee's recommendation, if adopted, would tend to widen game destruction. Everybody knows how the hotels and restaurants charge for game on the bill of fare." Mr. Pearson has taken the issue up with the Food Administrator, ask'ncr that the recommendation of this

committee on the extension of the

game season be killed. Some of the biggest hotels in New York City are sid to have been fined for having game illegally during the dosed sctson. The Audubon Societies will carry the fight to the last trench, it is announced, in older to protect the birds, whose services to the Nation in destroying insects which feed on the crops are now vital to food production. Government authorities are responsible for the statement that one-tenth of the agricultural products in the United States are destroyed annually by insects.

Richmond Is enjoying a cross-eec-tion of "big town life." It is at the Murray theatre which Owner Murray has transformed into a replica of some of the famous moving picture hpuses of the big centers. It is hard to make the public take a moving picture theatre seriously. They can't overcome their opinion of it as a cheap form of entertainment a nickeloedeon, a "movie" but Murray's venture will make them change their mode of thought quickly. Murray has dressed up his moving picture theatre, giving it a new stage setting of real artistic parts, provided !t with suitable music, a ten-piece orchestra and a soprano songbird, and It ought to be given a place in the amusement program of the community corresponding with its merits. Pleases His Eye. The new manager of the Murray, W.

N. Hlckey, who came from New York, calls the New Murray a "palace of

pleasure." That's going it a little strong. Yon see, we're accustomed to I

tailing our pleasures a little more

sedately out here. But the New Murray surely is a pleasure to the eye.

Monday night Charles Ray was

starred there in a bit of foolery called "The Clodhopper." Taken as a farce it is highly diverting.

From the viewpoint of a movine Dlc-

ture patron whose acquaintance with

stars is limited to "Doug" Fairbanks and, formerly Charles Chaplin this man Ray is a winner. He gets his comedy effects straight and he's a nice-looking mummer at that. Ray quarreled with hard-fisted dad.

a New Hampshire farmer, and went to the big city to make his fortune. There he was catapulted into fame

fend fortune through his rustic manner and gait and he went back, induced hy bis childhood sweetheart, just in time to save the old man from ruin. Of course he married the girl. Its laughable and clean and entirely wholesome. No Sex Stuff There. That's a high point In favor of the new Murray. The firet two pictures under the new regime have been wholesome. Marguerite Clark's picture and Ray's were fresh as dasies. No sex stuff, society "drammers" there. Maybe the new place would pay better right now if it descended to the vampire stuff but in the long run the wholesome policy will make the new place a better institution. The music Is an attractive part of the New Murray's program. Clarence Runge has gathered ten highly efficient musicians for the orchestra. They play well under his direction, although they didn't always follow the picture Monday night. Miss Marie James, who came from Chicago acocrding to the announcements, has a pleasing soprano voice of lyric quality. She scored Monday night with musical comedy hits. Owner Murray says the patronage of his new plan is satisfactory. More power to the New Murray. F. D.
