PRESIDENT TO ROLL UP HIS SLEEVES FOR DEMOCRATIC TICKET WASHINGTON. July 8. President Wilson is going to "take off his coat" and "roll up his sleeves" for the fight to elect Cox and Roosevelt, the Demo
cratic candidates for president and vice president, it was said at the' white house yesterday. The official announcement declared that the extent to which the president will plunge Into the campaign will be only limited by the plans to be worked aut for his participation by the Democratic national committee. Until the national committee maps out its plan of campaign and assigns the role the president is to play, it is. f course, not known In Just what particular field he will operate. Inasmuch as the league of nations is to be made the paramount Issue by the Democrats, however. It Is expected that the president will serve as the directing genius on that subect and will contribute papers of importance to the canvas. It also is announced that the president will not leave Washington for any extended summer vacation, unless that plan Is changed tty unforseen circumstances. Week End Trips Planned. Tie will take the usual week end tlp8 down the Potamac rover and Chesapeake bay. for which the Mayflower stands ready. The presidential yacht also has been made ready for an extended cruise, should the president desire to take such an outing, but It Is now said that he probably will not leave the capital for a long voyage. The suggestion was heard unoffic ially today that the president may indulge in a "front porch" campaign for the party ticket, to supplement the Ffforts of the leaders in the field. It
is believed, however, that if his health should permit any speecch making, he would prefer a hall somewhere in Washington, or some other large city close by. The probability is that he will limit his activities to statements and communications, which would be given about as much publicity as a speech. It is expected that the views of the president today, indicating that he personally proposes to work for Cox and Roosevelt, will be taken by the cabinet members as a cue to go forth Into the political fields and do their bet for the ticket.

The Theatres
MURRAY. Harry T. Morey, who has rlayed about every, sort of a motion picture hero, from policemen and a detective of the Nick Carter type to tramps and society gentlemen, is a sea captain in "The Sea Rider," which will be seen at the Murray theater the la?t half of the week. Early in the story he is only the mate of a fishing smack, but be rises to the dignity of captain of a sizeable schooner. Edwin Hollywood directed the picture. While Mr. Morey's new picture calls for a large number of persons, there are few leading parts. These are in the hands of such capable players as Webster Campbell, Van Dyke Brooke. Frank Norcross, Alice Calhoun and Loulszlta Valentine. MUFRETTE "The Best of Luck." the Metro picturization of thy celebrated Drury Lane melodrama, was shown yesterday at the Murrette Theater. It proved
to be a feature attraction of superlative merit. Done on a colossal scale, this swiftly-moving story is fairly packed with excitement, sustained action and spine-chilling thrills. Cecil Raleigh, master of melodramatic plays; Henry Hamilton and Arthur Collins were responsible for the stage version of "The Best of Luck." At Drury Lane it created a furore. "The Best of Luck" tells of a dashing heroine, Leslie Macleod, who foils the attempts of a villainous Spaniard, General Lanzana, to compromise her and cheat her out of a fortune which lies in the hold of a Spanish galleon sunk a century before. An all-star cast appears in "The Best of Luck." WASHINGTON. "Partners of the Night" was prepared for the screen by the man who has "The Whip," "Sporting Lift?," and 'The White Heather" to his credit. The title covers a series of seven detective stories that formed the most successful magazine feature of the kind that the Metropolitan Magazine has ever
rublished. A young lieutenant detective named Clifford fine his every move nnd ambition in his profession blocked by a superior who is a crook, rnd whom he ultimately exposes by the aid of a female criminal after a Tiumber of scenes that make excellent screen, material. The sagacity of the organizers of Eminent Authors Pictures begins to be evident in their latest production "Partners of the Night," to be shown at the Washington Theatre beginning Thursday. Each author has a peculiar and distinctive contribution to make to the public. Rupert Hughes paints the citv and social life, where Leroy Scott flashes pen pictures of the mysterious criminal underworld, iis aristocrats and its deadbeats and its detectives who trail the wiliest crook to capture and conviction.
E. E. RICE, Garden Supervisor. I A few annual flowers should be planted In every garden, they make a beauifful decoration and are only temporary. Brilliant masses of, color; can be grown along the borders of your garden walk, up against the foundation of the house, in front, or shrubbery masses along the rear fence of your yard. Select petunias, phlox, ca!liopsls, zinnas or sweetpeas. These bloom profusely throughout the greater part of the season, and are all easy to grow. Sometimes you want flowering plants for bedding, where they can be seen from the living room windows. For planting of this kind, use verbena, antirrhinum, snapdragon, pansy and portulaca. These are all heavy bloom ing annuals. Where you wish to use annual flowers to form screens or hedges, use zinnia, cosmos, kochla, nasturtium, sweetpeas and morning glory vines. Cosmos is a late bloomer, and may have to be protected from early frosts, but it is well worth growing and protecting. Zinnia makes an excellent low hedge for planting along the borders of the vegetable garden. Kochia gives a solid mass of dark crimson flowers in the fall and is pleasing when not in bloom because of its density of growth. Sweetpeas and nasturtiums are most delightful plants for screen purposes. Plant for Hot Weather. If vou have a spot that is sandy and dry and is fully exposed to hot. sunshine, the best plant to select for this spot is portulaca. It will flourisn
in jo-itions where most o'hrr plants would yoon succumb to the iateiise heat. It you want a bed of the most bril- ' liant colors, plant the scarlet and' crimson varieties of the shirley pop
py. If you want a tropical effect, plant
