D. ARNOLD, Agent REFORM COMES SLOWLY A New Jersey woman Is about to a chain of colonies throughout -the- United States in which "the two 'deadly evils," hypocrisy and gossip, will never majte their appearance. will be, she says, a series -Of farming communities, each popu- lated by people sworn never to pretend they are what they are not and never to carry idle tales about their neighbors. These towns will be selt- sufficient; the inhabitants will raise their own food and will be economically independent, so that the false values of a coldly material "civilization will not have so many chances to affect them. How much headway this plan will make It is hard to tell.

Probably everybody would like to live in a place where there are no hypocrites and no gossips; but whether people will want such a goal badly enough to move to a brand-new town to get it ia another question. About the enly new communities founded these days eta the gaily-platted Teal estate subdivisions. However, the lady's idea is right line with good old American lpn.

But the hundred had been "called," and were due to report at 10:30 that morning. But naturally no cameraman could shoot a scene wherein the leading lady lacked her costume. No costume, no shooting.

So the casting director telephoned the woeful news to Central Casting, and Central's telephones worked furiously relaying the message to the nundred. It was just too bad, but what could Mae do about it? Sue Carol, by her own admission, has become left-handed. Just since Nick Stuart placed a large and sparkling diamond on the proper finger. "And now," says Sue, "I'm always in trouble. I forgot to take it off for the camera.

And I'm not supposed to be engaged yet, in this picture, and the clinch does not come until the final fade-out." Yea, once again, even in pictures (it's "Why Leave Home" this time,) Nick is Sue's "boy friend." Quiet Mirth To Come The composite movie-g'ber of the future will be a human marvel who laughs, even goes Into hysterics, silently, believes Director Wesley Rug-gles. Makers of talkie wit have tried various means of "clocking" laughs so that audiences would not lose, in their hilarity over a sparkling line, the ensuing dialog. Ruggles believes that audiences, after "losing" dialog often enough because of prolonged laughter, will come to suppress their 'snickers, and that within three years or so no "clocking" will be necessary. He heralds the "laugh-conscious" talkie fan. furnished of German determination to respect Belgium neutrality.

Admitting the invasion of Belgium was in violation of international law, German officials declared there could be no drawing back. Mounds I 1 ETR aIwieId an Entertainment mW ill i-v Slim ffljf IP women who thought they were seM tine up a new kind of world are living, working and thinking just the way everybody else Is. The business of reforming the world is a long and laborious task. It can't be done by withdrawing to some isolated spot and practicing perfection in lonely grandeur. To accomplish anything you have to knuckle down right where things are worst and plug away on your own hook and even then your progress won't be visible to the naked eye.

Hypocrisy and gossip are deadly evils, to be sure. But you won't help to eradicate them by moving to a new town and asking for a new deal. Each individual must start first with himself. If he perseveres and is conscientious about it, his neighbors may eventually absorb a little of bis altitude. And that, after all, is the only real way to go about it.

Maurice Chevalier in "Innocents of Paris," is an extraordinary attraction at the Liberty theatre. The show is there for the last time tonight.

The talkies were supposed to drive him into other fields to meet the monthly bills, what with their small "stagey" casts, and their sound-stage ltm-itations.

Instead, tthK talkies have tak-n on much of freedom of the old silent movies, and are using mob scenes large parties, nightclub whoop- ee-makers, and big theatre audi- ences to such an extent that even the merely dress- Mae Clarke ed-up extra or dressed down without musical or dancing talent, often gets a call. One company recently, in a single week, used 3,500 extras. And although there is no denying that the extra who wants to make real money nowadays must be able to sing or dance, or talk Yiddish or Russian or French or Senegalese, still things are not so bad for those who are just "atmosphere" chatterers. Speaking of extras, an odd incident occurred the other day. Mae Clarke, stage importation co-starring with Lee Tracy (the Hildy Johnson of the New York "Front Page" cast) in "Big Time," lost a costume, and in consequence a hundred extras bit the dust.

What! No Costume? Mae looked all over the dressing ENGLAND DECLARES WAR Fifteen years ago today, on August 5. 1914. England declared war upon Germany for violation of Belgium's neutrality. On August 2, Germany Informed the Belgian government of its intention, provoked vy alleged French activities, to enter Belgian territory and to advance up the Meuse Valley tc attack France. The following day, Belgium reached Its heroic decision to defend its own neutrality and responded to the German ultimatum with the declaration she purposed to defend her soil against German violation.

Belgium also asserted that she bad at all times been equally prepared to defend herself against France or Britain, and thus demolished the whole German edifice of allegation that France was planning to attack Germany through Belgium. The crisis was reached August 4, when King Albert, in presence of actual invasion, appealed lo Great Britain. Russia and France, to help him defend his country. Great Brit ain sent an ultimatum to Germany, which expired at mldnlgat, aemand- ing that satisfactory assurances be i 4 WHEN AUTOS HIT TRAINS It is a revealing side-light on the nature of the average motorist to learn that a huge percentage of all grade-crossing traffic accidents are caused, not by the train striking the auto, but by the auto striking' the train. This, of course, means that the motorist was either extremely care-lees or extremely foolhardy.

It he were trying to beat the train to the crossing, his judgment was simply atrocious the train got there first with yards to spare. And if he sim ply failed to sej it, he was guilty of an inattention that seems almost unbelievable. What we started to say was that figures show that there were more of that kind of crossing accidents last year than ever before. And just what is to be done about it we don't know. You would think that any driver could keep from running onto a crossing that was already occupied by a moving train.

But, apparently, an increasing number can not. tion. In his current, and first- movie "Innocents of Paris," Chevalier plays the part of a happy-go-lucky push cart singer of the Flea Market dls trict of. Paris. He gets a ctiance to go on the stage with songs and pantomime, and the plot affords him every opportunity to present the gor geous values of his full repertoire of songs lyrics and ballads which have established him in actual life Us the reigning king of entertainment in Europe.

Europe's idol Maurice Chevalier, appearing at the Liberty reaire in the famous picture, "Innocents of Paris," which bad its opentng in Benton Harbor Sunday, grips his hearers. Opportunity is given to see this dazzling musical comedy production, featuring dozens of lovely chorines, in Its engagements at the Liberty, which end tonight.

Chevalier. When Maurice Chevalier, soldier ot France, and lion of the continental stage, came marching into the silver-sheet at the Liberty theatre last night he gave his audience a great big thrill, and kept them enthralled every. moment that his spirited voice and body were before them. For with Chevalier it is not alone, the animation of vocal tone which "gets' people, young and small but it is also that temperamental language of the hands, the face, the feet.
