Hobbs on Friday the following officers were elected: S, F. Hobbs, president; J. A. Minter, \ ice Claude F.. Suttles, secretary and treasurer.

A discussion took pk.ee in the file. city as to, whether women preterm mon- often to demand the atten tion of men or to rid themselves ; uen attentions. At first omy tiv people, Agnes Ayres and Jack Holl, were engaged in the argument, t n when it was interrupted by William de Mille of camera wor, Nita Nalda, Rod La Rocque, Julia Faye Theodore Kosloff and Robert Edc son were on one side or the other. The discussion arose while a scene in ‘‘Don’t Call It Love’ was being photographed. This scene shows Agnes Ayres fainting when her lover leaves her. As a chapter from Julian Street’s novel, ‘‘Rita Coventry,” from which the picture was adapted, it is said Io have ac tually happened.
