AT THE VARIETY THEATRE,
James Cruze’s latest Paramount
picture will be shown at the Variety
Theatre Sunday evening. Featuring
Glen Hunter and Viola Dana, the
picture made phenominnl succes in
New York. For more than a year
it delighted audiences at the Cort
Theatre and was later sent on tour
where it duplicated its success in
some of the largest cities of the
United States. Tt was inevitable
that it should find its way to the
I screen. “Merton” is ideal motion
picture material.
Too much praise can hardly be
given to Glen Hunter for liis ad
mirable portrayal of Merton. His
work is the outstanding feature of
the picture. Mr. Hunter shows us
what happens to a small-town youth
who goes to Hollywood, determined
to become a movie star. His adven
tures constitute a heart gripping
epic of pathos and drama, richly
woven with typically American liu
j mor and a beautiful love story. Poor
•Merton! The harder he tries, the
j louder the audience laughs! “Mer
ton of the Movies” is one of the
greatest comedy-drama-burlesques
ever flashed on the-screen.

SINGLE MEN DEMONSTRATE
SUPERIORITY
The age old question of whether
a married man is better than a
single man was settled la3t week
on the local diamond last Monday
evening. The single men snowed
the poor married men under to the
tune of 17-9 but the married men
say that’s no criterion.
The married celebrities worked
hard enough but the single men
went them just a little better.
It is 3aid by some score keepers
that the real score was 11-9 in favor
of Single Bliss and none other than
Skipper Hanson, umpire, 3ays so.
But then be also, is a married man
and lias leanings toward the side
lie wa3 pulling for.
GAS BOAT ON REEF
. .The gasboat Olga, Gant. Oscar
i '
Oberg struck a reef on Hump Is
land near Point Retreat this week

rowed to Auk Bay from which point
they sent word in to Juneau. The
Avona was sent out to attempt to
float the wreck but found it so bad
ly damaged in falling over on the
reefs they could do nothing with it.
Underwriters were sent out to
make a survey of the vessel.
