Harold Lockwood and May Allison, without question one of the most pop ular stellar combinations now appear ing on the screen, will be seen here at Sherry's on Sunday and Monday in "The River of Romance," a five-part Metro wonderplay, produced by the Yorke Film corporation, one of the Metro's newest producing companies. Tho scenes for this feature are laid around tho Thousand Islands, where Director Henry Otto took his company ARCADE Unique Heroine in "Meena's Rom ance" Meena .Bauer, the heroine of "Little Meena's Romance," a forthcoming Triangle-Fine Arts release, is a little Dutch girl living in a small Pennsyl vania town. Drought up by her wealthy but frugal father, sheknows no life but scrubbing Moors and wash ing clothes. Into her life there comes the Count Frederick von Ritz. a hand some young man whose temporary lack of funds is being made up in the sale of patent clothes-wringers; and she having come to his rescue when he is brought up before her judicial father for cnnva.sing without a li cense, he takes up his residonco as boarder in her home. It is not long before von Ritz, who lias not made the little family aware of his station in lifo, is sent remit tances from hime; so he goes to live in bachelor quarters in the city, tak ing little Meena's heart with him. Then Meena's father dies; nnd she goes, with all her fortune in a tele-Bcope-bng, to live with her wealthy aunt who lives in New York. Her rul ing passion of wanting to have every thing scrupulously clean, makes her undertake to scrub the front steps; and here she meets von Hitz again, this time coming to pay court to Meena's cousin. He renews his atten tions to little Meena, quite ignorant that she is wealthy. But the passing of his country's ambassador reminds him that he should not marry out of his rank. Feeling that lie cannot marrv her, h still invites her to come witli him to a road-house outside the city; and there he inveigles her into a private room. But seeing her ignorant of his intentions and trusting him implicitly, his conscience troubles him, and he goes downstairs to fight it out with himself. The outcome of this mental struggle furnishes some of the best moments in a refreshingly human film. This delightful photoplay will be shown at the Arcade Sunday only.

Not Onlv A1V llA Ci.-ient.A , 1 - ".-ilia H'fI3VU down here in tho Argentine, but the sun is a bit turned around as well. This a young North American matron found out to her sorrow. Looking for rooms, she insisted on having South ern exposure and was astonished with the facility with which she got the dnirwl niillnntr AftAf eVA Ka.l -; I tnA lonaA and mntriwt in bKa f..J , - - - - " ...v.-.. ... one 1UUUM the the Bun perversely showered all Its golden favors on her more ! Mmm m m pacious neighbor whose windows face 1 the north. Reveling in eight perfectly good months of warmth and sunshine, the native Argentinian has taken to ig noring the four cold months disdain fully. He treats them Christian Sci encely and for him the chill does not exist. Hence all the buildings are built with a weather eve to summer only and hcuting facilities are as rare as a day in June or an under done steak. As a matter of cold fact the ther mometer never registers much lower here than on some of our own crisp Autumn days in the United States. It is just the tomb like chill of the unheated buildings that gives that fierce frapped effect. With coal at 44 gold dollars a ton these days, this lack of steam heat is all most fortunate for the native son and daughter. He winds a thick shawl or muffler multitudinously around his throat and goes his wav, red nosed but content and seemingly oblivious of n slift -t rrViol nift. She swathes herself and is hapnly in fare and costly furs that are cheap ' along side the price of a bucket ot coal. You can't blame steam heated North Americans, however, for oc casionally getting cold feet. If they weather the terrors of influenza or a I cold in the head they all finally come to leel, (when they get over being too numb to feel at all J, that there is more in Buenos Aires to warm the cockles of their hearts than its heat less houses chill their marrow. The s'eeva of my f or coat was rip ped. The chill August wind whistled through. I took it to the best de pitt'twiBnt store, which' is comparable with awy store in- London: or Paris, to hu mnred. It whs Hone for me while I waited. As I had had the high cost of everything here dinned in my ears alt th wav down on the boat, it was with flattering timidity that I demand ed "quanto,' or "how much?" The saleslndy in most correct and courte ous English assured me it was a pleasure for them to do my mending. MADAME CLARE. .

Harris Grocery PHONE MAIN 70 FARMERS PHONE B. 192 408 North Fir Street, Cross Track Not as yet have I ever noticed any department store in New York en-! joying itself in a similar manner. The Plaza, a Ritz-Carlton hotel, is the only honest to goodness nign ciass modern hotel in Buenos Aires. Its room keys all have a hefty little ball and chain attachment, but you don't , have to get yourseit ail exnausiea iot ing them to the desk. When you go out, you simply leave the key in your door. You leave it there whether you are out or in, by night or day, and never give it a turn. Love and the Plaza laugh at locksmiths and up to the time of going to press the fam ily jewels are all intact. You would get more of a turn than the one you didn't give your key, however, if you tried this lockless svstem in any hostelry in the U. S. A. A real ice cream soda at Harrod's department store proves how com pletely the ocean of difference between the two Americas has been overcome. A tall glass filled with vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup and fizz has turned the trick. Indeed, in most all respects a Yan kee feels as comfortable at home in Buenos Aires as in the land of the stars and stripes. Buenos Aires Report Shows Argen tina's Grain Going to Allies Buenos Aires, Sept. 1G. Argen tina's wheat has been sold almost ex clusively to the allies during the last six months.
