As a preventative of fires and working on the, old adage that an _ ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, the Weston Volunteer Fire Brigade are organizing a campaign _against fire causes. On â€" Saturday, commencing at 2.30 p.m., an inspecâ€" tion will be made of some of the pubâ€" _lic buildings of the town. This will _ be continued until a visit has been made of the schools, churches, facâ€" tories, public halls, etc. If these plaâ€" _ ces are not properly equipped with fire saving appliances, an .endeavor will be made to have same installed, _ thus eliminating any unnecessary loss of life or property. The people are asked to coâ€"operate and in as far as possible keep their surroundings clear of rubbish or any inflammable maâ€" terial that would in any way be liâ€" able to cause a fire. ‘This action on the part of our firemen is worthy of commendation and should meet with _the hearty support of all. h PREVENT FIRES â€" _ PLEASE COâ€"OPERATE \Mr. B.

"Something To Think About‘"‘ is an original story. by Jeanie MacPherson who was responsible for "Old Wives for New" and the scenario of "Male and Female." that production opens an engagement of three days at the Allen Beaver Theatre on Thursday next week, deâ€" clares she went through the most squeamish experience of her career during the making of that film. She plays the part of Ruth Whiteâ€" ly, daughter of Judge Whitely, who has incurred the deadly enmity of Marjgrie Daw, the I fHonap.cture actress, w in a leadirg part in *King"~ Dorkh, Malay haliâ€"breed and leader of a gang of highbinders. ! Dorkh kidnaps the judge‘s daugh-! ter and plans a terrible revenge t‘or{ the sentence of his son.. Ruth is strapped to a table under a swingâ€" | ing pendulum with a razor edge. The fiendish contrivance drops just an inch every time it swings, comâ€" ing nearer and nearer the strapped viectim. ‘"Dinty" O‘Sullivan, a newsâ€" boy, and his Chinese friends, howâ€" ever bring about a rescue in the mick of time and Ruth is restored to her father and fiance. \_Theodore Roberts, veteran Paraâ€" mount character, has one of the most difficult parts of his sereen career in the part of Luke Anderson, the stern father who blinds himself in a fit of rage. Roue, gambler of the 20th century, and speed driver in his many varied roles, Mr.,y, Roberts declares that the part of Luke represents the hardest work he ever did in his life, necessitating as it did a study of all the characteristics peculiar to sightâ€" less men. "Acting that scene was the most nerveâ€"racking experience I have ever had," said Marjorie. "Of course, I knew that everything would come out all right, but just the same I had cold chills looking at that swinging pendulum. . I believe I went through all the sensations of a drowning perâ€" son, because it seems as though I thought of everything I had ever done in my,’fivhole life. The scene was terâ€" ribly realistic and I never felt more relieved than I did when it was all over," Gloria Swanson,who had the leading feminine role opposite Elliott Dexter in ‘"FKor Better, For Worse," appears in a similar capacity in "Something To Think About," the new Cecil B. DeMille Paramount picture which comes to Allen Beaver Theatre next Monday. During tl\*:fs past year this talented artist has won many admirâ€" ers by her splendid acting in ‘"Male and Female" and ‘"Why Change Your Wife?"

Boyâ€" len‘s war service that he was shellâ€" shocked as the result of an air raid on London ‘"when a bomb burst in the station‘" is hardly fair. He went to France with our unit where the bombing, particularly on clear nights, was almost continual. He became ill in France, but, because he was not wounded ‘he did not take the advice of our medical officer, Col. Hillary of Aurora, and go to hospital, although he was laid up with an injured left knee at the time. When he was granted leave he went ~to England. Owing to his nervous state he was on arrival in England placed in the Queen Alexandra Hospital, Millbank. As a patient of this hospital he was being accompanied into the country by~ two members of our battalion (who live in Toronto) when the station was bombed and their train, _ beside which they, were standing, was burned. ‘"Luckily none of ‘ the: ofâ€" ficers with him were injured" as you say, and they assisted in removing the dead and wounded from the wrecked building. Capt. Boylen was sent back to hospital, where he reâ€" mained for some time. Capt. Boyâ€" len‘s service was practically all under one commanding officer and with one eunit and his record is easily traced. In ordinary fairness I would request that you give these facts as much prominence as you did the statement you made yesterday. _ J. M. GIEsON.

The young laÂ¥ies‘ team is out to win. Though they are considered the weaker sex, still they will maintain their supremacy over the Hasbeens. It will be a‘real night of fun, and everyone should come out to see this sporting event of the season. Adapted from a story by Richard Washburn Child, this pictureblends, a touch of mystery, real heartâ€"appeal and a surprise ending in a manner thatâ€"cannot fail to please. Of course there is romance in it too, but sex love is subordinated to a theme thus tar neglected by the cinemaâ€"makers â€"a wayward father‘s love and sacriâ€" fice to insure the happiness of his daughter. In brief, the plot deals with a conâ€" viet, a "lifer," who secures a pardon from prison in order to protect his daughter. The latter, believigg herâ€" self an orphan, has become engaged to a rich young man, and now,though innocent of the approaching blow, is about to be blackmailed by her rasâ€" cally mother. How the exâ€"convict, by means of heliotrope perfume, of which he is singularly fond and with which his wife has always associated him, foils the wicked woman and finally, by giving his life, saves his daughter is unfolded in a picture that is certain to rank with the best in many months.
