PRICE : Your Attention Fad + Miss Laura Hughes Supports Indeâ€"|‘‘In Againâ€"Out Again,‘‘ Here J pendent Labor Party in day and Saturday, with Dougâ€" Perhaps the most thoughtful and| useful part of the address given here on Sunday evening, under the ausâ€" pices of the Poreupine Miners‘ Union by Miss Laura Hughes, niece of Sir Sam Hughes, exâ€"Minister of Militia, was that in which she emphasized the fact that the people themselves were to blame for the evils that might be in their Governments. If liberty and democracy were worth fighting for, she said, they were worth having. They were even worth thinking about and working for. * The peopleâ€"the :worl\ers,â€"â€"had the numbers, the polâ€" [xtmal power, the majority of the votes and they could have anything and everything they wanted in a political way if they would only join together intelligently and stand together in their own interests. Any evils that might be were in existence only beâ€" cause the people did not use their political power. Miss Hughes criticized the Govâ€" etnment in no uncertain way, being particularly strong in her denunciaâ€" tion of the handling of war conâ€" tracts, in which she said everybody but the worker was considered. The manufacturers, she said, owned the politicians and the judges and the Governments. She instanced cases where conditions contrary to the law were permitted in factories, etc., deâ€" spite the fact that the attention of the authorities had been repeatedly called to the evils. ‘*Women cannot keep straight on {$3.25 per week,"‘‘ was one of her sentences. She also charged that the interests of foreign sharelholders, including Germans and Austrians had been placed before the good of Canadians by (the Governâ€" ments. The remedy she suggested was the Independent Labor party. _ There were already 14 branches of this parâ€" ty in Ontario. Among the planks in its provisional platform was the proâ€" per treatment and pensioning of reâ€" turned soldiers. The men should reâ€" ceive as much as the officers, she said, amid applause. She would take from the ‘"big profits‘‘ to give to the solâ€" diers. On Friday and Saturday, July 27 and 28, the New Empire Theatre will present one of the most popular of modern motion picture stars, Dougâ€" las Fairbanks, in his first ‘Aircraft‘"‘ picture, ‘‘In Againâ€"Out Again.‘"‘ Douglas Fairbanks is a noted athlete, and a good man in a roughâ€"andâ€"tumâ€" ble as the picture shows. His trainâ€" er, ‘‘Bull‘‘ Montana, who is also one of the actors in the picture, is some fighter also. The picture play gives great scope for the talent of these two and for that of Miss Ada Gilman. Douglas Fairbanks‘ smile his athletic prowess, and the stirring spirit of the story underlying the play should please all picture fans. Teddy Ruthâ€" erford (Douglas Fairbanks)‘ who is a vigorous exponent of preparedness, falls in love with the daughter of a pacifist, but is ""turned down‘‘ for a jellyâ€"backed young fellow who beâ€" lieves in peace. Teddy drowns his sorrows in drink and wakes up in jail with a black eye for company and also a pretty girl as nurse. She is the sheriff‘s daughter and is never allowed outside the jail yard. Teddy Gecides accordingly that the jail is a pretty nice place, so ‘he no sooner gets ‘‘out again.‘‘ than he wants to be ‘"‘in again.‘‘ The sheriff, bed by the attempts to injure the plants in town, offers his dauglhter‘s hand to anyone discoverâ€" ing the source of the trouble, so of course here is Teddy‘s opportunity, and also the opportunity for a firstâ€" class motion picture drama. ‘*Better than Broadway Jones,"‘‘ is one of the verdicts on this new play, "‘In Again â€"Out Again." Announcement has been made by the British Government that followâ€" ing the persistent demands of an inâ€" dxo'nant public, the British will now make reprisals for the German _ air raids on undefended towns. For evâ€" ery British town hereafter raided, a German town will be bombed by Brlt- ish airships. BRITAIN WILL MAKE REPRISALS FOR AIR RAIDS las Fairbanks Starring.
