, The Pyramids were built a long
time ago, stone by stone one stone,
then another and another.
This principle is as powerful today
in the thrift program of any man or
woman. A dollar saved, then another
dollar, another and another. Let
your thrift account be of such a size
that you can and will meet it . and
stick to it.
Be systematic. All worth while
building is done that way. Stone by
stone. Brick by brick. Dollar by
dollar. :
Set aside your thrift fund before
you touch a penny of your pay en
velope for current expenses.
That is the only successful way to
insure' regularity in your thrift.

"Nobody would think to look here."
How : many, many people, have said
about those words, as they regularly
deposited their savings under a loose
board in the attic or deep in' the horn
of the radio loud speaker! '
But there have always been eyes
to see or ears to hear or else the
thief merely outguesses the hoarder.
No .one. is cunning enough to give
real safety to hidden money.
Put your funds in our ' institution,
where they are notably safe and
where they will be working and earn
ing more and more for you.
Take your place in the Thrift Line.
The people in that line, regularly in
vesting their savings with us ,are at
taining success. v
They are actually happier for the
effort they are putting into the
"savings game."
They are laying aside a little now
in order to have a bounty in the
future, years, money to start a busi
ness or buy a home, to educate a
-hild or make snug their own declin
ing'years. We invite you to "get in line" be
cause we know that you will be enor
mously benefited,

Early Military Training 1
Serves Menjou In Film
Enacts Role of French Army Officer;
Was Officer in War
A doplhe Menjou, who appears in
his latest starring vehicle entitled
"A Night' of "Mystery," next Wednes
day and Thursday ' at the Idle Hour
theatre, for the first time in his film
career, is portraying the role of an
army officer. He is Captain Ferrcol,
of the French-African Chausseurs, and
wear's service uniforms throughout the
production.
When a youth, .Menjou attended
the Culver Military Academy, located
at Culver, Indiana, one of the most
famous military schools in the world.
While there, he learned how to stand
upright and how to battle against
all odds. Following his graduation
from the academy, he entered Corn
ell university, where he studied en
gineering for four years. Soon after
leaving college with' his diploma,
America entered the World War, and I
Menjou immediately enlisted with a
group of his college mates.
He was among the first Americans
who were sent to Italy, and soon
alter his arrival, he was commis
sioncd a Captain in the Intelligence
department. His early military knowl
edge gained through his stay at Cul
ver, and' his following college educa
tion, served to boost him up through
the ranks.
Not only did this popular screen
actor receive a good foundation in
matters military during his period
of study, but he also received a
splendid training in dramatics. At
Cornell, he was one of the. leaders
fostering the art, and in his Senior
year, conceived and staged the Senior
class play.
When he received his discharge
from the army after the Armistice,
he decided upon a film career, and
after many heart rending expercnices
final became recognied through his
work , in Charlie Chaplin's "A Woman
of Paris." It is easy, therefore, to
see why Menjou is enabled to portray
his role superbly in "A Night of
Mystery which calls for military
bearing and dramatic perfection.
"QUALITY STREET,"
BARRIE'S FAMOUS
PLAY, COMING
The. very few famous playwrights
and authors who have claimed they
were afraid to trust their writings to
the mercies of the screen, will find
something to htink about after seeing
Marion Davics in "Quality Street,"
showing at the Idle Hour theatre
Mondayand -Tuesday. '. 1
There is probably no other famous
play in existence demanding so much
whimsical action in the delicate sit
uations, yet Sir James Barrie, who
saw his "Kiss for Cinderella" and
"Peter Pan" produced so successfully
as motion pictures, did not hestitate
to entrust his favorite work to Miss
Davies.
The screen version of the stage
play has lost none of .its delicacy
and whimsy through the masterful
handling of Hans Kraly and Albert
Lewin, scenarists.
The character of Phoebe Throssel,
so beloved to American theatregoers
who saw the role played by Maude
Adams, is still the quaint and whim
sical Phoebe through Miss Davies'
wonderful, portrayal.

by Metro-Goldwyln-Mayer, proves
that a fine play loses none of its
good qualities when correctly han
dled for screen production.
'Conrad Nagel is the leading man,
and the supporting character roles
are taken by Helen Jerome Eddy,
Kate Price, Marceile Corday, Flora
Finch and Margaret Seddon.

Dix Turns Troubles
Into Roaring Farce
' r
Having a large amount " of money
which one does not own but which
one cannot rid oneself of may cause
serious problems. This is the difficul
ty which Richard Dix turns into a
roaring comedy in his latest picture,
a farce comedy, "Easy Come, Easy
bo. lhis picture will be the attrac
tion at the Idle Hour theatre Friday
and Saturday.
The problem is one of honesty
Dix has the money, can't get rid of
it and yet feels he isn t entitled to it,
'Easy Come, Easv Go" was adapt
ed from the stage play by Owen Da
vis. It concerns the activities of a
young American, who is imbued with
the theory that honesty is the best
policy.- However, he assists, . unwit
tingly,' in a bank holdup and then,
upon learning of how the money has
been stolen, he endeavors to return
it to its rightful owners .
Because the" president of the .bank
believes Dix to be a crazy millionaire
and because Dix cannot get his hands
on the money at the proper times,
the theme furnishes some surprisingly
funny situations.
