Imagine the scene there is in Con
gress when a national prohibition bill
is up for passage with the possibil
ity of its being enacted into a law!
Imagine the fight put up by the op
posing forces the prohibition people
oncl a whiskey trust! This conflict be
tween the national prohibition people
and whiskey trust constitutes one of
the thrilling incidents in "The Man
Who Forgot." Congress is seen in
action, with the members in fiery
speeches and nearly in personal con
flict. The galleries are seen crowded
witn interested spectators and mem
bers of the prohibition forces are
aecn parading the Washington streets
to the capitol there by their presence
to give added force to the efforts of
their representatives in Congress.
Actual scenofl of such a crowd in
Washington give to "The Man Who
Forgot" a tremendous power and a
memorable punch. With Robert War
wick in. the title role and with Gerda
Holmes and Doris Kenyon in the prin

Dear Father: I am now enrolled at
the United States Military Academy
but from all that I can gather, I don't
amount to a wholo lot.
I had a nice time in New York but
only stayed there about twenty-four
hours and came up on the West Shore
railroad to West Point. It is only
about forty miles and very pretty, al
though I don't think that it compares
with the Columbia. The grounds of
the Point look beautiful
