om I a eis: HUTCH AND FRIENDS IN GRIP OF PAPER TRUST With no wood pulp available for Nancy Kellog, on account of the op- erations of the Paper Trust, which she and the newspaper publisher, * Harrison are fighting, Episode 6 of "Hurricane Hutch," the Patheserial starring Charles Hutchinson, finds Nancy forced to locate Bella's fa- ther, the only living person who can read the cipher woven in the lace scarf, which tells the hiding place of the geaweed formula. This chapter, entitled "At the Risk of His Neck," comes to the New Martin Theatre tonight, and shows how after Hutch and Nancy escape the rushing water from the dynamited dam, they arrive too late to buy the last timber tract, RACING PICTURE AT NEW MARTIN "Queen o' the Turf' is a romance of the race course. It is peopled by a fascinating group of charac- ters whose experiences have heen woven into a turf drama that re- calls the memorable "Checkers," that grand old story of the turf that thrilled the whole world more than a decade ago. It is the current at- traction at the New Martin Theatre, showing tonight and Saturday. The outstanding scene, among several of - undoubted dramatic value, is the race episode in which two sleek thoroughbreds outdis- tance a field of sprinters and finish in an absolute dead heat, The vaudeville offering consists of two acts and is exceptionally good. AT THE NEW MARTIN "Bringing Up Father," Taken from the Peterboro Ex- aminer, the following review of "Bringing Up Father," is especially interesting. It comes to the New Martin Theatre on Friday night. The combination of Danny Sim- ons, Peterborough's own comedian, and "Bringing Up Father," proved irresistible to Peterborough's play- goers last night. Every seat in the Grand was sold and many people were turned away from last night's performance, while Mr. Simons got sank to the bottom of the pond." a reception from the capacity house that was conclusive testimony of the »oeard in" which he is held by his ) oynsmen, iv was his first appearance in Pe- terborough in the role of the famous Jiggs Mahoney, a part he originally created and he was the comic story's hero to the very life, his make-up | Noodle answered, and actions making his imitation of | out from under water. the McManus character decidedly effective.

"There is a misunderstanding as to the position of the R. C. Henry Co. relative to the coal situation," sald Mr. R. C. Henry to The Re- former to-day. I was quoted last week in The Reformer as saying 1 would cancel a shipment of 5,000 tons. The situation is this. I have on order 5,000 tons of coal with the old line companies, The proportion of this 5,000 tons which I will se- cure by April 1 next, is 1,200 tons, because of the shortage. The order that 1 said 1 would cancel is for be- tween 7 and 10 carloads of coal from the independent companies, which 1 could not sell at sla, the > price fixed by the Provincial Fuel Controller." UNCLE WIGGILY AND NECKLACE, Cobyright, 1921, by McClure News- paper Syndicate, (By Howard R, Garis) One day, when Uncle Wiggily was hopping near the duck pond ocean where the water animal children had good times, the bunny rabbit heard some one crying. 1 "My! That sounds to me like trouble!" said Uncle Wiggily, hop- ping along as fast as he could on his red, white and blue striped rhenma- tism crutch, "I hope no bad water rat has tried to Lulu, Alice or Jim- mie Wibblewobble, the ducks." And when Mr. Longears reached the pond he saw that something was the matter with Lulu, one of the duck 'girls. She was crying, and her sister Alice, her brother Jimmie and Bully and Bawly No-Tail the frog boys, were gathered about her. "What's the matter, Lulu?" ask- ed Uncle Wiggily, as he stood on the edge of the pond. "Did a bad wat- er rat bite you?" "Oh, no," quacked Lulu in ans- wer, "but I was playing tag with Toodle Flat Tail, the - beaver hoy, LULU'S | | lin the water. and my lovely necklace of blue glass heads slipped off over my head and "And we can't find it, either," croaked Bully the frog.

ALMA RUBENS RISKS JAFE IN CANADIAN WILDS Featured Player in "The Valley of Silent Men" Has Many Thrilling : Experiences While Alma Rubens has never posed as an athlete, in "The Valley of Silent Men," a new Cosmopolitan creation based on James Oliver Cur- wood's novel of the same name, which comes to the Regent theatre next Monday, she performs some feats of endurance which prove her an out-door woman. Cosmopolitan sent a company under the direction of Frank Borzage up into the Cana- dian Rockies to film the story amid the scenes where the author con- ceived it. For twelve weeks Miss Rubens and Mrs. Borzage were the only women with the company, shar- ing all the inconveniences and dan- gers of camping in the northern wilds. Miss Rubens learned to drive a dog-sledge, and her first appearance in the picture is when she is seen J yACATION "Perhaps red beads will float when He took the red beads to the duck pond ocean where the still playing | New Yerk, | water tag. | "Here is another necklace for you. ||| The story is one full of | Lulu!" called Uncle the shore.

How sad it makes me to tell it! Lu- lu's wing slipped, she missed the red beads and into the water they fell with a loud splash! "Get 'em! Quick!" erbaked Bul ly the frog. Well, he made a jump for them, and so did Jimmie Wibhblewobble, but the frog and duck hoy bumped their heads together and neither of them got the beads, which sank to the bottom. "Oh, dear!" quacked Lulu, "Two lovely necklaces gone in one day!" "We'll dive down and see If we can't get one back for you," said Toodle Flat Tail. So the beaver boys dived under water, as did the frogs, and Lalu, Alice and Jimmie put their yellow bills down in the mud and felt around, but they could find neither the red nor the blue glass head necklaces. "I'll go get Grandfather Goosey "And I don't know what I'm go- ing to wear to Kittie Kat's party!" cried the duck girl. "I'll get you another necklace," promised Uncle Wiggily. "And this time, Lulu, you must come out on shore to take it." Off through the woods hopped the bunny gentleman, and on the way he met Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuz- zy. "Where are the bunny's keeper. "To get Lulu another glass head necklace," answered the bunny, "I think I'll get white heads this time. Perhaps they will not sink." "No matter what color you get," advised Nurse Jane, 'have the heads wood instead of glass, Then if Lu- lu loses them off her neck the beads will float, being wood, and will not sink.' "That's a good idea!" said Uncle Wiggily. "I never thought of that!" So this time he bought Lulu a string of red, white and blue wooden beads for her necklace, Taking them back to the duck pond ocean Uncle Wiggily stood on the shore, and got ready to toss the necklace over to Lulu, who was still playing tag in the water, "Oh, don't! They'll sink and be lost like the others!" cried Lulu. But, with a laugh, Uncle Wiggily tossed out the red, white and blue heads. On purpose he threw them to one side of the duck girl and they fell into the water. But, instead of sinking, they floated like a little hoat, being of wood, you see. "Oh, what wonderful beads!" quacked Lulu, as she swam to them and slipped them over her neck. "I'm always going to wear a wooden necklace after this, Thank you, Uncle Wiggily!" And at Kittie Kat's party every- one said Lulu"s wooden necklace was just too lovely for anything!
