an important pa:t of the training
given to United States Marines at
their Ix-ague Island camp, here. At
first, this proves puzzling to the raw
recruit. During the morning inspec
tion, recently, one ol the future sea
soldiers handled his rifle poorly, and
was taken to task by the officer.
'Are you acquainted with the pats
of your rifle? he asked, sternly.
'Yes, sir, the recruit replied.
'Well, where is '.he balance locat
ed?"
"I don't know, sir," said the Marine
glancing nervously at hi3 rifle. "It
was hera this morning."

HELEN HOLMES
Wallace Reid, the ever popular Las-'
ky-Paramount star, will be seen at the
Arcade Theatre, today and tomorrow,
Octiber 29-30, in his latest Para
mount picture, "The Hostage" a story
written especially for him by Beulah
Mario Dix and produced for the Lasky
Company under the direction of Rob
ert T. Thornby.
The story of "The Hostage" in
which ho is now appearing, is a most
unusual one as it shows the attitjde
of rival people towards one another. :
The story has to do with the attitude
rf Low-landers towards Mountaineers.
Each ono accuses the other of bar- :
bari.-TO and cruelty, but when they
both unite to fight the people of the
Coast, their attitude changes.
This prcxluction serves to introduce
to Paramount patrons a new leading
woman Dorothea Abril. Miss Abril
hR3 for some time been a member of
the Paramoun: organization and her
splendid work in Support of Mary
Pickford in 'The Little American" icd
hor to bo chojea to play leading wom
an for Mr. Reid in "The Hostage."
In the cast supporting Mr. Reid are
C. H. Gelbart. ';uy Oliver, Noah Bee
