An lmense crowd attended the

opening of the Richmond Baking com- j pany at the new plant, Wednesday night, the street front of the building being jammed with autos, while there were more people Inside the building than could be handled by the corps of employe entertainers. On account of the press of people It was Impossible to operate all the machinery, because of danger to the bystanders, but all the different operations were explained to those interested. White and pink roses were given out as favors on the third floor, while the fourth floor was given to dancing, and was crowded al the time, the music was playing. Samples of cookies and crackers were distributed on the lower floors, numerous bushel baskets and open boxes filled with cookies standing conveniently for everyone to help themselves. The crowd was alowed to taste the chocolate chips directly from the rack cf the dipping machine. On account of the press of people it was impossible to operate the machine.

aia arraap of the elarma'a future, the aeeda aad wants of the public, and the motion picture la a part of every man's life. By DAVID IV A RK GRIFFITH In introducing motion pictures as America's fourth or fifth largest industry, one might also identify them as America's largest and most popular target for criticism. Where lives a person who hasen't said: "The movies are awful"; or said something to that effect? That is as it should be. It proves motion pictures are important and progressing. You hear no such criticism from all sides for our American music, painting, writing or stage. That is because the public does not expect any great improvement in these arts, but does expect it in motion pictures. A savage an ruthless denunciation

of motion pictures by one of the most

prominent dramatic critics in this

country, first awakened me to the fact that motion pictures were to become

try. One can prove it by a thousand means.

For instance. Your hero is yourself. Then the national hero becomes the one who expresses in the highest degree the achievement the people of the nation would like to achieve individually. Until recently we were all a fighting people, and our heroes were fighters. But now we have no soldier for a national hero, even though the greatest of our wars has just ended. I should say that the popular hero

of America today is Henry Ford. When he makes some changes in his

plant and pays his debts, the public is so interested that the metropolitan newspapers print three and four columns on their front pages about it, and continue to comment for days. Now we will make a comparison. If a person were to show a motion picture ten times better than any yet made; and he were to show this with music better than any ever composed in America; and if he were to give away as a souvenir a volume of poetry for better than any yet written in America; and he were to have painted

u is. They Ask Censor. These mature persons know nothing of the history of the stage, its conventions, customs, privileges, liberties or experiences. They see nothing in motion pictures that has been common to the stage for a hundred years, yet, because they are superlatively ignorant of stage drama, they are horrified at something that is absolutely commonplace to the play-goer. With a confidence that only such

therefor should censor pictures, and I presume they would feel quite satisfied to have the same person decide the fitness of a pig's carcass and a film.

Automobile Catches Fire; Little Damage is Done Little damage was done to the automobile of Pohlmeyer, Downing, Stegall and company, when the machine caught fire due to the accidental spilling of gasoline on the starter, causing ignition. The blaze flared up but soon was put out with a fire extinguisher. The right front fender of the car was blistered but otherwise the machine was not damaged.

RADIO CLUB ADMITS

An address by O. E. Marvel, of the Radio department of McCook Field at Dayton, was the feature of the meeting of the Radio club in the high school Wednesday night. Mr. Marvel explained the results attained in some experiments at the field and talked on radio principles, giving definitions of radio terms and mentioning the different uses to which radio telephone and telegraph are being put. There were 42 amateurs in the audience and seven new members were admitted, as follows: Herman Teetors, Hagerstown; Wilfred Knapp. Hagerstown; Marvin Brown, Eaton; H. 1.

Soon After Election Day

(Bv Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 3. Without

any ceremony or formality. Governor

McCray and his family win oegm occupancy of the governor's house here soon after election day. November 10 has tentatively been set for the "moving day," but all depends on when workmen complete repairs and get the house furnishings in shape, for the McCray family Is to be the first to occupy the house as "the executive mansion." . The big house, acquired by the city of Indianapolis in opening its boulevard system, was given to the state, but Governor McCray plans to reimburse the city for $2,000 expended for repairs since the property was transferred to the state. Some legislators rnmnlalned that the house was not

"swell enough" for a governor's mansion , and that automobiles passed along the boulevard within a few feet of the door. The last legislature, however, appropriated $20,000 for furnishing the home, permitting $2,000 of this to be paid to the city for its repairs on the property. In making ready for his occupancy of the home Governor McCray has spent approximately $3,000 for general repairs and improvements to the property, while the contract for the general furnishings calls for $12,622, leaving a part of the legislature's appropriation unexpended. CONNECTICUT OFFICIALS RECOGNIZE BOBBED HAIR HARTFORD, Conn.. Nov. 3 "Bobbed" hair for women will be officially recognized by the state of Connecticut next Monday. The barbers' commission will hold examinations of applicants for barbers' licenses, and to the list of qualifications will be added that of properly "bobbing" hair. The scope of the examination was extended to include "bobbing" when the attorney general gave the commission an oral opinion that the operation may be done only by licensed barbers.

Enter Prohibition. Criticism has its fads and fancies

just as much as anything else. At present it is popular to criticise the

motion pictures harshly. In a way I

feel that prohibition has had something

to do with this public irritability, re

garding pictures. People substituted the motion picture shows for the customary drinking diversion. And quarrelled with the films because they didn't get the same effect. There need be no alarm about motion pictures as long as the makers strive to interpret life as naturally as they can. Superficial critics shout with outraged despair about something in a motion picture not being realistic. Realism isn't the important thing. Naturalism is. Courtroom scenes. I believe, are criticised more generally than any others in motion pictures. That is because Mr. and Mrs. Audience went to court in a condition of high interest, when either they or someone close to them was involved in the action, and whatever occurred affected them vividly. They remember how impressed they were with everything occurring. When they are not so impressed by a court

AN OLD RECIPE .TO DARKEN HAIR Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray, Faded Hair Dark and Glossy.

Says His Prescription Has Powerful Influence Over Rheumatism

Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the accumulated impurities, commonly called uric acid deposits, were dissolved in the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. With this idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. Te freely gave his discovery to others who took it, with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let sufferers everywhere know about his discovery

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound

ed, brings back the natural color and lustre tothe hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any

son. These few demand detailed realism that would be boring beyond tolerance to the other millions. The critics should pay more attention to naturalism, and less to realism. They keep running after rabbits instead of following the fox. No Art Interest. It will be several decades yet before producers can make motion pictures that do not also classify as entertainment for every grade of intelligence. America has no sincere or even conscious interest in art. It is first and almost completely interested in indus-
