GOI N G STRAIGHT."
Triangle-Fine Arts Offering Is Finely
Produced and Acted. Reviewed
by Thomas C Kennedy in
Motography.
Norma Talmadge, whose restrained
yet colorful acting we always enjoy,
and a supporting cast which includes
Ralph Lewis and Eugene Pallctte, do
a great deal toward nuking "Going
Straight" a picture that will please.
Others responsible for the appeal this
offering is capable of are C. M. and
S. A. Franklin, who produced a story
telling of the man and his wife who
are hard put in the endeavor to live
down the lurid past, in a manner to
bring to the fore all the interest-compelling
possibilities contained in this
melodrama. It will be shown at the
Arcade Sunday.
Miss Talmadge is again the young
mother, and once moro she is appeal
ing in the role. Ralph Lewis makes
Remington as convincing as possible
under the circumstances, and Eugene
Pallette is a vicious, drink-soaked vil
lain. These three players deserve
praise for their portrayal of charac
ters with which the story presents
them. Kate Toncray and the Fine
Arts children complete the cast.
In the opening scene John Reming
ton and his wife are discovered in
their comfortable home. While glanc
ing through a book, Remington comes
across a newspaper clipping giving
details of the trial of a notorious band
of crooks. Both Remington and his
wife then review the past. He was
the leader of the band and Grace wrs
one of his assistants. Remington was
arrested and sent to prison for three
years, but Grace escaped. After serv
ing his term, he resolved to go
straight, mostly because of the child
born to Graco during his stay in
prison.
Remington is now fairly prosperous
and he lives in the respect of his as
sociates and neighbors. One of the
band, who is still a crook, discovers
this and he at once starts to black
mail the former leader. Then he in
sists that Remington return to the old
life for Just one job, threatening the
while to give evidence which will send
Grace to prisoir, Remington hesitates
long, but finally decides to do the job.
On the night of the proposed robbery
Grace takes the children to visit a
friend, and, of course, the friend's
house is the very one chosen by
Briggs to be robbed. Briggs is de
feated in his scheme by Remington,
yet ho does not squeal. Instead, he
attempts to shoot the reformed crook.
The result is that Briggs is killed and
the Remingtons are safe, unless some
other member of the band turns up.
I ho settings used in the production
of this story are splendid. The fight
in the crook s den and the chase
through alleys, across back yards and
over .roof tops is done well enough to
be interesting, which is a compliment
to the Franklins, who, with some abla
assistance from the players, have
made "Going Straight" a melodrama
that at no stuge of its development
fails to hold the spectator interested.

Fruit Men To Meet.
Walla Walla, Wash., Nov.ll.
(Special.) Governor Lister of Wash
ington has issued a call to the leading
fruit shippers, fruit growers market
ing organizations and commercial or
ganizations in the State of Washington
for the appointment of representatives
t meet with the newly appointed Ad
visory Board in Spokane, November
23rd and 24th.
As this is to be the first meeting
of this Board it was deemed advisable
to hold the meeting at the time of
the National Apple Show and start
the work outlined with the aid of all
those prominent in the fruit industry.
This Committee was the result of a
conference of Governors at North Yak
ima last fall. It consists of nine mem
bers, three being appointed by the
Governor of each state, Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho.
The purpose of this Board is to
study the fruit marketing situation
in the three states and to determine
ways and means in which the govern
ments of the three states can be help
f ul to the fruit industry.
Paul H. Weyrauch President of The
Fruit Growers Agency, is chairman
of the Washington Committee, and
according to the Governor's call will
be in direct charge of the arrange
ments for tliC Spokane meetinR.
deed it is becoming quite the usual
thing for prices to end in pennies.
Perhaps it is not unreasonable to pre
dict that the man who shines shoes
will soon charge eleven cents;..and
hair cuts may go to twenty-seven
cents a scalp1. In view of the frequent
strikes even the subway and elevated
railroads might consider raising their
fares from a nickel to six cents.

"THE LIGHT OF HAPPINESS
"'' Viola Dana, the fascinating and
J' gifted young stage and screen star
.will be seen here in "The Light of
Happiness," a five-part Metro wonder
"play at Sherry's theatre on Sunday
,',iind Monday. This charming young
,,artIst is surrounded by an exceptional
.ily strong supporting cast, which in
cludes Edward Earle, Lorraine Frost,
.luck Busby, George Melville, Mona
Klngsley, Harry Linson, Robert
"Walker and other well-known artists.
'""'The Light of Happiness" was writ
"tcn especially for Miss Dana by John
"H. Collins, who also directed its pro-
duvlion. There is a flavor of the de
lightful writings of Sir James M. Bar
i io in the characterization Mr. Collins
has drawn in the part of "Tanglctop,"
tho rolo essayed by Miss Dana. Left
an orphan, the daughter of a drunken
father, she is shunned by the commun
ity. A young minister who comes tj
the town and who understands the
great and true principles of humanity:
takes her under his wing. The town
gossips revel in this action on his
part and plan his ruin with their
vicious attacks. There ore many in
teresting complications in the story
and it is unfolded in a masterly an
artistic manner on the screen.
Running Short of Pennies.
New York, Nov. 11 (Special.)
Even' though tho number of the rich
who are growing richer has been ra
pidly increasing during the era of
prosperity, yet everybody must have
pennies. While there may bo bales of
greenbacks, and currency, and wagon
loads of gold still the money market
is never evenly balanced when pennies
run shy. Civilization depends upon
copper, since otherwise the boy who
sells papers would lose a large part of
his patronuge, and the gum machine,
would fail in performing its proper
function in case the copper cent failed
to lurk within the pockets of subway
passengers. The shortage of pennies
might have been expected, as there is
always something running shy in New
York. One week it is milk, and then
hens refuse to lay in proper quantities.
Now the Treasury Department has
gotten behind, with the result that
Wall Street, and other streets, haven't
pennies enough to make change. The
Philadelphia and San Francisco mints
had to steam up and run twenty-four
hours a duy, and the Denver mint is
operating on a basis of sixteen hoars
a day. The use of copper coins has
increased at nn enormous rate, per-
h:i!)K because there is nn extra penny ,
added on bread, (he same thing has,
happened with tliv price of mill;. In- .'() SALE
