The contests today are for the Junior championships. Tomorrow the national title holders and other "blue ribbon" performers will meet for the senior championships, on Monday the relays and all round championships will be decided. On The Screen MURRAY "'Jack Holt Is a paradox. He can do either the most reprehensible of villains or the most engaging of heroes without experiencing any particular difficulty in the transition. In "Gren Eyes." the new .Dorothy Dalton Paramount picture, which will be shown at the Murray theatre today and Saturday, Mr. Holt is the husband, consumed by jealousy of his lovely young bride, but who is, withal,. a forgiving and an honorable man, albeit proud beyond the limits of good taste even for a southerner. This .new picture is declared to he the best to date starring Dorothy Dalton." ' MURRETTE Victor L; Schertzlnger again returns to the direction of Charles Hay in his newest Paramount picture, "The Claws of the Hun," a story' by Ella Stuart Carson and the scenario by R. Cecil Smith, which will be shown at the Murrette theatre today and Saturday.

"The Lesson" Is the story of Helen Drayton (played by Constance Talmadge), a young girl who becovies ored by the dull routine of life in a fcmall town. She likes her friends "Chet" Vernon in particular, but she regards it as a personal grievance that even this most desirable of all the beans should be taken for granted by everyone, including himself, as her inevitable companion at dances and other village affairs. Consequently, when John Galvin, a young architect from New York, visits the town. Helen is captivated, not so much by him as by the novelty of meeting a new man, and before many weeks pass they elope and are married. L. M.

This list includes more than 900 names not Included in the list published May 31. The list is not complete by any means and many additional name will be added during the coming months. Every one of these members should be kept in continuous good standing. The existing arrangement by which subordinate unions have paid the International dues and assessments of members in good standing for a certain time prior to their enlistment, makes no provision for members who have taken out traveling cards and deposited them in cither Jurisdictions or retained these cards in their possession. In order to fully protect these members in war the following, known as "The Sixth Proposition," will be submitted to a referendum vote on October 16, and.-Judging from the patriotic spirit displayed formerly, will carry by a large majority: Sixth Proposition. Sixth Proposition Shall an assessment of 5 cents per week per member be levied by the International Typographical Union upon the membership for the purpose of paying the dues and assessments of such members as are in war service, or to reimburse local unions for such amounts as they pay for this purpose subsequent to the time this law becomes effective, and from which to pay the per capita tax and assessments of members in the service whose traveling cards may be in the possession of the International secretary-treasurer; the assessment to be effective January 1, 1919. and to continue in effect during the period of the war, and to be discontinued or decreased in such manner as the executive council may determine or the exigencies may require when a pence treaty is. reached between the allied governments and their opponents?

CHEMIST WINS LASTING GRATITUDE "I tried several doctors and all kinds of medicine, and had about given up all hope of getting better. I did not think it possible that any medicine could be so wonderful in its effect as Mayr's Wonderful Remedy has proven In my case. You sure have won my lasting gratitude. I could not work at all and had constant pain in my stomach before taking your medicine." It is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflamation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis.

RHEUMATISM GOES Torturing Pains and Swollen Joints Vanish When Rheuma Is Used. At last a real remedy for rheumatism! And a grood one it must be when Qulffley's Drug Stores and grood drurgists everywhere sell it on the no-cure no-pay basis. Rheumatics should hall the news with great rejoicing, for it is surely a remarkable remedy and has a record of almost unbelievable cures. Read what jr. F. Oliver of Albany, Ga., says about it: "I had sciatic rheumatism for two years, and tried every medicine offered for rheumatism. Tried many doctors, was treated at one of the best southern sanatoriums. and if I improved any I did not realize it. I am a conductor on the Central of Georgia Railroad, and had secured a pass to Hot Springs. Ark., to take treatment. About that time I saw Rheuma advertised and concluded to try it. I abandoned my trip, took three bottles, and now feel as well as ever. I am going to make everybody I see who lias rheumatism try it. I would not take a hundred thousand dollars for what Rreuma has done for me. I would rather be dead than live as I was before the use of Rheuma." If you have rheumatism In any form, don't delay try Kh;uma today. A large bottle, sufficient for two weeks' treatment, is not expen'sive, and your money back if it does not give you quick and iojful relief. Adv.

REDUCE THOSE DANGEROUS SWOLLEN VEINS ; - Physicians are prescribing and hospitals are using a new and harmless, yet very powerful germicide that not only causes enlarged or varicose veins and bunches to become normal, but also reduces goitre, enlarged glands and wens. Ask any first class druggist for an original two-cunce bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil (full strength) and refuse to accept anything in its place. It is such a highly concentrated preparation that two ounces lasts a long time and furthermore if this wonderful discovery does not produce the results anticipated, you can have the price refunded. It is not wise for anyone to allow swollen veins to keep on enlarging. Often they burst and cause weeks of pain, suffering and loss of employment. Start the Emerald Oil treatment as directions advise and Improvement will begin at once. Your druggist can supply you. Adv.
