First Wrinkle of
. .
old Age in City Hall
.
Causes a Turmoil
A swelling appeared unannounced
across the wide tiled corridor of the
City Hall’s third floor Tuesday and
excited discoverers summoned Charles
Bowen, city building inspector, post
haste from his haven on the fourth
floor.
Giravely he came and examined the
geam, which angleéd a half inch or
more in places above the floor level
Studiously he thumped, withdrew a
Jittle distance and peered. Then a
smile broke over his face and he an
‘nounced all was well. |
“I understand what it's all about
now,” he announced to puzzled on
lookers and went upstairs, |
Filed away in the vault of his of
fice he pointed out a bulky bundle of
plans, blueprints and photographs.
“Phey're the original plans of the
building when it was put up as a
postoffice back in ’73,” he announced.
“The government sent them to me
the other day. Reckon they thought
it was about time something was
happening.”
“But they're ahead of time” he
added. “All the joints and basic
work is of concrete. 'The swelling
in the corridor floor is the first sign
of age, but all is secure, and will be
for a long time,” he said. ;

Elsie Ferguson
At the Forsyth

Beautifu! Elsie Ferguson in her wonder
’ful Paramount-Arteraft production, “His
House in Order,”” which has proven one
[nr the finest attractions seen at the For
gyth this season. “His House in Order”
i from the pen of Sir Arthur Pinaro,
and will be remembered as one of the
most popular stories of the year. As the

Double Bill
.
At the Rialto
The big double bill at the Riaito this
week 18 proving ome of the most popular
attractions this theater has ever offered.
In “Black Is White' Dorothy Dalton has
one of the strongest roles in which she
has ever been cast. Her striking inter
pretation of the stellar character is one
of the most dramatic hita of screen work |
she has ever domne. In *The Garage,'
Fatty Arbuckle keeps the house in an up=
roar from the minute he hits the screen
till the last moment of the picture.
o
Martin and Arbuckle
At the Vaudette
An entire change of bill will greet the

tire mew program of music and popular

“Her Official Fiance,” and Fatty Arbuckle
will close the bill with one of the clevers
est Paramount comedies he ever made,
entitled ‘“The Cook.” Both these pic
tures are genuine features, and are among
the best productions of these popular
stars, and the fact that “DeMarr Jazz
Band” was held over th# week by pop
ular request brands it as one of the best
special attractions ever booked in this

Auction of Souls’ Coming
To the Tudor Next Week
| The .greatest crime ever perpetrated
against a Christian people in all history
i:lllkbe shown at the Tudor Theater next
eok.
“Auction of Souls,” the pitcure which
was first exhibited in America at private
performances where soclety and leading
sociologists paid $lO a seat, will be shown
the entire week at the Tudor Theater for
the first time at popular prices.
“Auction of Bouls' is a true, vivid
pleture of the terrible slaughter of 500,000
Christian people who, on the burning
plainsa south of Armenia, went to meet
their Maker unflinchingly under circum
stances more terrible than history ever
portrays.
Besides their hell they endured, the
bloody arena of Nero, the wanderings of
the Pilgrims, the tortures of the Span
ish inquisition and history's other burn.
ing examples of Christian persecution, pale
into insignificance.
Upon these half milllon people, living
mildly and happily in the sadow of Mount
Ararat, the oldest Christian nation in
the world, crept one red day in 1815 the
sinister, fanatical, pnfian hand of the
Turk. Never in the middle ages did the
Mohammedan sweep down upon the fol
lowers of Christianity with more lustful
hate.” Never did the pagans of Wastern
Europe slaughter the bellevers in His
name more fiendighly.
(irls were torn from their mothers and
defiled. Men were slain in droves, women
pwere boiled allve, l%uc children were
subjected to unspeakable horrors. Babies
were hurled against waills before the very
e¢yes of their wailing mothers,
. Every item of Turkish terror is shown
fn “Auction of Souls” with a vividness
comparable onl yto the white heat of a
burning iron. People who have seen
“Auction of Bouls” have gone away with
a new knowledge of the crimies done
against these martyrs of Christianity,
“Auction of Souls” is history, it is educa~
tional, it is something every man and
woman of this generation should see.
