happiness. His vision was clouded by
a surfeit of things without real mental
value. And strangely enough a blind
man opened his eyes. Such in brief
Is the theme of "The Man Who Had
Everything," presenting tho favorite
screen star Jack Plckfurd. In the role
of the profligate son Jack gives one of
his best portrayals. "The Man Who
Had Everything" played today and to
morrow at the Page theatre.
At the Rialto
People who are always wondering
how Tom Mix manages to put new
stunts into every picture he makes,
are leaving the Rialto theatre this
week with their wonder Increased. Mix
is appearing in his latest photodrama
of tho West, entitled "The Texan."
New specimens of daring exploits stud
the production, and tho picture Is prov
ing a delight to both the dyed-ln-the-
wool Mix fan and the casual picture
goer.
C. OF COMMERCE
IS
STRICTLY SECRET
There has been some objection by
members of the Chamber of Commerce
on account of the return envelopes of
the primary, election and referendum
on the community chest being num
bered, because there Is a belief that it
will become known as to how they
voted.
No such apprehension should be en
tertained by the members. It is neces
sary that return envelopes be num
bered so that the same may be checked
with the member's name and thereby
avoid fraud. Whenever an envelope is
received having the number of a mem
ber who has not paid his dues to April
1st, It is placed to one Bide and unless
a chock for the amount is inclosed cov
ering dues to the date mentioned, the
vote Is not counted.
The ballots are not opened until
after the polls are closed. This is done
by the tellers who have absolutely no
access to the membership numbers.
There is no possible chance for anyono
to know how any member voted. One
ballot was received last week with the
number of the return envelop erased.
The result of this necessitates throw
ing out of this ballot, because no check
is .possible as to ;lt coming from a
member who has not paid his dues to
the first of April.
