In “Lily of the Dust,” her latest starring picture for Paramount,' pro duced by Dimitri Buchowetzki, with Ben Lyon, Noah Beerv and Ray mond Griffith heading the support ing cast, Pola plays a scene where fear is the dominant note. She made no effort to impress the cun era with her beauty but gave herself I up to the emotions of fear. i “Because of this ability to forget, , self in her art, Pola Negri is ab'e to | achieve remarkable realism,” de ' | dared Buchowetzki. “Her role in ‘Lily of the Dtist’ is td my mind one of the most amazing things she has ever accomplished.” “Lily of the Dust” will be shown next Wednesday and Thursday a’: the Rylander Theatre !

Present conditions, in the opinion of the president, do not warrant a reduction in railroad wages, where as he does believe sufficient eco nomies can be made in operating expenses to permit a reduction in freight rates, if such is found feas ible.
