Officials and frequenters of the Sudâ€" bury police court had the fright of their young lives last week when a startling explosion took place in one of the corridors of the building while court was in session.

It is an epic of the World War. More vividly than any words ever printed do the scenes of this motion picture tell this story of an American doughboy and his maâ€" | demoiselle. Renee Adoree who plays opposite John Gilbert is a native of | Northern France and helped suggest the many details of the quaint French farmsteads and mannerisms and acâ€" tions of the natives who come in conâ€" itact with the doughboys. John Gilâ€" bert plays the part of buckâ€"private and lover. What a buckâ€"private! What a lover! Those who see this wonderful doughboy woo the temperaâ€" mental mademoiselleâ€"see him go over the top after his fallen buddyâ€"and watch the denouement when the girl‘s lamed soldier boy limps back over the, hill after the "big show"â€"spectators forget entirely that it is acting and think only of him as vitally real filesh and blood character.

Studor rolling 337. and having 568 for two games, which was more than many had for three games. Geo. Campbell rolled niceiy for the 1.O0.O0.F., but the rest were all off.
