HEARING ON PETITION IOImn nitinrn i-rimi

HOMUU UANUCLLAIIUri OF NOTE IS DEFERRED

' (By Associated Press) , ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 31. The hearing on Walter T. Candler's peti

tion for cancf llatlon of a note for $20,-

500 held by Clyd6 K. Byfleld, which

Candler alleged was extorted from him through blackmail, while he and

the Byfields were en route to Europe

has been postponed Indefinitely it was

learned here today.

The hearing first of a series of legal ' battles brought about by the case, had

been scheduled to come up tomorrow.

Mrs. Byfield's $100,000 damage suit against Candler, charging him with

causing her personal injuries when he , sets,

is alleged to have attacked her in her caves,

stateroom on the night of July 19, after a champagne party was filed after Candler sought to have the note voided. Candler's petition alleges that Byfield, upon finding him in Mrs. Byfield's stateroom, demanded $35,000 for trespassing. Candler claims to have given Byfield, the check for the amount which he alleged he later redeemed in Paris with $2,500 in cash, a receipt for $2,000 loaned to Byfield, ,and a note for $20,500 payable in New York.

AMUSEMENTS

RICHMOND I Although he made most of "The Last of the Mohicans" In the great mountain and lake country of the west, Maurice fourneur, producer of Cooper's famous story, which opens today at the Richmond theatre, firmly believes in filming as much as possible of a story in his studio. "Of course," -says the French director, "we love to get all the beautiful exteriors We can, but whenever possible, I like to build sets on the studio stage, because it is far easier to secure effective work from the players when scenes are filmed under the lights."

This explains why such elaborate

representing portions of the forts, cabin's, wigwams, and

many other fortst retreats, were set

up in the studio during the filming

of "The Last of the Mohicans."

Nevertheless the grandeur of the

big hills plays its part in the picture,

and nature, in its varying moods of

storm and calm, lends the usual

Tourneur atmosphere of beauty and

artistry.

he could push any rash plan into execution, 'wiser counsel prevailed. He

brought his son into contact with a girl "who was decidedly worth while. The result may not have been what he anticipated, but it was an experi

ment worth making and one that was destined to affect him far more than it did his retrogressive offspring.

The whole story has been told in an

unusually interesting way in "Rose o'

the Sea," the First National attraction

that opened a run at the Murrette the

atre today. Anita Stewart is the star and she carries through the part of in

nocence and unsophisticataon with charm and spirit. Rudolph Cameron,

her husband in real life, is the leading man; and welcoming him back on the screen is like sounding the notes of a

pleasing melody that has been laid

aside for a reason no one can under-.

stand.

PALACE

The cash register in the general

store in the little town of Bellport

was becoming rusty from disuse when

Martin Tripp found himself minus his job as a traveling salesman and

stranded in the burg. Tripp jollied

the proprietor, Abner Grey, into giving

him a job as a clerk at $6 a week

and then preceded to put some pep

and salesmanship into that portion of

Bellport's commercial activities, with the result that Grey soon was on the

way to unanticipated wealth.

This is one of the many humorous

developments m "A Midnight Bell, a

First National attraction, which is the

feature, at the Palace theatre, begin

ning Thursday. Charles Ray plays the

part of Martin Tripp in his inimitable

manner, and van Dyke Brooke, a veteran of the stago and screen, is cast as Abner Grey. The production i3 one of the best that Ray has ever appeared in.

MURRETTE It may be a sort of man's easiest way, The fact remains that Elliott schuyler, burdened by too much money and a boredom of ancestral conventionality sought the easiest way and found

it was Broadway. In the lights and

laughter of New York's thoroughfare he managed to kill time anyway.

Then the time came when old Peter

Schuyler rose in his wrath against his son of the twentieth century. Before

WASHINGTON Gloria Swanson, Paramount star, can't swim a stroke! That didn't deter her, however, when it became necessary for scenes in "Beyond the Rocks," her latest etarring vehicle, showing at the Washington theatre next Sunday, from plunging into the ocean near Catalina Island, out of her own boat and then keeping up to the best of her ability until rescued by Rodolph Valentino, who plays the leading man's role. ' "I never knew it was so hard to deliberately fall out of a boat into the water until I tried to do it in a

natural way," observed the star, after

the perilous scenes had been secured. "One of my oars accidentally slipped out of the oar-lock, however, an 1 that gave me the idea. By pulling hard on one oar and then letting it slip out. and throwing myself to one side, I would seem naturally to fall rieht

over tne side of the tipping boat Into the water. '

"The camera started and gathering all my courage, I splashed over the side into the water. When I got my breath, I screamed for the rescue signal and soon Mr. Valentino had reached me. At first I ducked him :n my struggles, but finally I got my senses together and calmed down a little. Then they pulled us into a boat. We were in the water about twenty minutes altogether and after the scenes, I was sick for a little while, due to

having swallowed the salt water." Although Miss Swanson was formerly heralded as a Mack Sennett bathing girl, she has never learned to swim.

"N the past two months Firestone

has built and marketed more tires

than in any similar period in its history. This steadily increasing public preference is proof of the recognition by car owners of the greater values offered by Firestone. It is a tribute to Firestone men all stockholders in the company all actuated by the operating principle of Most Miles per Dollar. The high average performance of Firestone Cords is without equal in the annals of tire making and is reflected by the general tendency to specify Firestone for hard service. Taxicab and bus lines, buying tires by the mile,'

are universally equipping with Firestone Cords. ' There are many reasons for the high quality of Firestone tires but chief among the special manufacturing processes are double gum-dipping, thus eliminating internal friction by insulat

ing each cord strand, and air-bag cure,v

insuring a well-balanced and perfectly shaped product. Don't speculate ' m tires you will find the right combination of price and quality in Firestone. Come in and let us tell you about the service these Cords are giving other car-owners whom you know.
