This is the picture that coat Metro $1,000,000 to make, and, from dll accounts the $1,000,000 was well spent, as critics agree that all oth er efforts at production on a grand scale have been surpassed and re cord runs have been made in New York, Chicago, Boston, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Los Angeles and other cities'where the picture has been previously shown.

It may well be called the heart of the organization. Brief ly, the Members' Fwum is u meeting of the whole membership at regular and frequent intervals to discuss an announced program and for tho dis cussion of that alone. A definite program is provided for each meeting, and the call to order and adjournment should be prompt and according to an anounccd sche dule. The meetings jire always strictly Informal and their purpose Is half defeated If a spirit of good fellowship does not prevail. A “forum committee” is appointed «t suited .Intervals to provide the programs, and much or the success ! »*f the meetings depends upon the vision and resourcefulness of this committee. At these meetings mat ters of the greatest local Interest, and sometimes of state and national interest, arc discussed by men who have a special knowledge of the sub ject at hand. Sometimes there Is a controversial *UbJec/ of great local interest and )mi»ortance. The main thing w such a controversy, is to get the real facts before the public. The time of a inciting is equally divided between two authorities on the subject. aniT the membership hears both sides. No action is taken on such subjects, except that the meeting can order the board of directors to take a re ferendum by mull of the whole mem bership on the question at Issue. The result In made public but It does not commit the t’hnmber of Commerce to tako sides. confessions are said to have stilted. Besides the murders, polic i nr«* working on theories that the ihurn- ing of u business block In Fui*mlng- ton .and the dynamiting of a store at (Irnssell were the work of the band. The confessions are solid to show that bootleg whiskey traffic was the cause for the reign of murder and violence. It Is believed the gang furnished liquor to various dives, anil that enemies of the traffic and mem bers of a rival whlskey-nclling gang were the victims. OLD , ' RITUAL!

No matter how well each and every dance piece is recorded by n dance orchestra, there is al ways one or two that stand just n little above the others. In this aet of recordings the outstanding hit U “Haunting Blues;" even Jan Garber, himself, says it is. It is one of those syncopated fox-trots that is delightful to your ean as well as thrilling to your feet. Af ter you once hear it, the tunc will haunt you day and night These two records and the two additional one* that will be releas. ed in the near future bv the Co lumbia Company will make a total 1 of ten records or twenty selections ithat have been made by the Gar- iber-Davis dance orchestra in the 1 last year. This is indeed a splen- jdid record and is conclusive proof • that the Garber-Davis dance music I is very much in demand thru out .the country. | A year ago this splendid orches. tra was truthfully termed “The South’s Premier dance orchestra.' It is now recognized as one of thc leading danoe orchestras of the United States. Their popuarity ex tends frem New York City to Key Want. Florida and as far west as the Mississippi river. They are engaged to play for all of the so cial events occurring in the large • cities aad are always in demand by thoYamous winter and summer resorts of^ tho country It is this orchestra that.is culled on to play tho commencement dances for practically all of thc leading co|. leges as their repertoire consists of all the favorite college fraterni ty songs such as* “Sweetheart of Sigma Chi,” J'Dream Girl of Pi K. A.” and “Dream of Heaven. Jan Garber, leader of the orches tra, is a talented musician himself being a graduate of the Coombs Conservatory of Philadelphia and a pupil of the Composer Shodric. His seven exponents of modern dance music are all musicians cf the highest quality. It was Garber and his orchestra who first intro- duced. the beautiful' old selection. “O Sole Mio" as a waits. It in now one, of the most popular waltzes of the day. Then there is “La Pal. ma” played as a fox-trot by this orchestra. The rendition of these two numbers in current -i.yle dance music requires the sk.h of musicians oMtm very first waters. Jan Gsrb*y r »nd his Garber- Davis dance, orchestra attribute their yuccess to diligent work and a keen anticipation of the musical public’s likes and dislikes.
