At The Theatres “Our Dancing Daughters” shown at the Webb last night to a very ap precative audience, is on the bill again tonight It is an usual and quite startling drama It sets forth to depict the .ife cf our high step ping people, and succeeds in holding the mirror very effectively up to the jazz age. The plot goes back of the younger generation to the par ents, and reveals the source of the acts of our daughters and sons. It is elaborately staged, well directed, and the acting is well above the average. It is a picture all should see; it contains a lesson in life alike for young and old. “The Water Hole” is the first Zane Grey picture in color since “The Wanderer of the Wasteland. It Is featured at the Princess Sat urday. With Jack Holt and Nancy Car roll heading a good cast, there is color in the photography, in the plot, in the action and in the back grounds. There is natural color in the im portant sequences. A prologue in color shows Nancy Carroll as a cave woman—dressed in a leopard skin—wooing Jack Holt, as a cave man. Another sequence in colqr shows her as a fair lady with an armored knight at her feet. There is a golf course sequence in color with Jack and Nancy on the links. Color makes “The Water Hole” bigger.

MELLON REPLIES 10 SMITH CLAIM Treasury Secretary Asserts Demo cratic Nominee “Showed Su perficial Knowledge. Washington. Oct. 18.—Taking Is sue with Governor Alfred E. Smith on the latter's criticism of “Cool idge economy," Secretary Mellon has flung back at the Democratic presi dential nominee charges that his speech of Tuesday night at Sedalia, Mo., contained inaccuracies in cita tion of figures and exhibited a “most superficial knowledge” of govern ment fiscal affairs. On two points in particular he disagreed with the New York gov ernor. These had to do with Smith's assertion that the difference be tween the cost of operating the government in 1921 and in 1928 was the difference between wartime and peacetime costs and that the cost of all the departments of the gov ernment was $200,000,000 more than in 1927 than in 1924. “The trouble with the first con tention,” Mr. Mellon said, “is that the war had been over for two and a half years when the Republican administration took control of the government in 1921.” He went on to ask if “as Governor Smitn would have us believe,” the reductions in expenditures between 1921 and 1928 were inevitable, “why hadn't they al ready been more largely affected?” Turning to Smith’s statement with respect to increased expenditures be tween 1924 and 1927, Mr. Mellon declared that Governor Smith had been grossly misinformed. “The total ordinary expenditures of the government, which does not include the expenditures payable from postal revenues,” he said, “ag gregated in 1924 $1,828,000,000, and in 1927 $1,857,000,000, or an in crease of $29,000,000, and not $200, 000,000.” 38 Pages Of Star Issued This Week Thirty-eight pages were issued by The Star this week, giving its read ers three newsy issues for approxi mately five cents, delivered, which is declared by newspapermen to be one of the most wonderful bargains in local reading matter that is of fered in the state.
