SCHOOL FOR HUSBANDS IS
ALSO SCHOOL FOR WIVES
The story of “The School for
Husbands”, the Lasky headlined on
tonight’s double bill at the Colis
eum, has to do with Betty Manners,
wife of John Manners. John is a:
frivolous young broker who loves
to gamble on the races and have a
j good time. His young wife, feeling
that she must economize, goes about;
in most unbecoming and inexpen
sive clothes. John becomes infatu
ated with another woman and loses
his money in the stock exchange
just as his wife discovers that she
is the heiress to a vast fortune. Re
alizing that she is losing her hus
band by her plain dress and “stay
j at-home” manner, she starts out j
to win him back.
She first arrays herself in better j
clothes and then, through an old j
friend, manages to arouse her hus- i
band’s jealousy. How the husband!
is taught to look only toward his j
own fireside is brought about by
many clever and amusing situa
tions. j

BACHELORS ARE PLANNING t
CHRISTMAS FOR CHILDREN
The Bachelors of Nenana are mak
ing plans for their annual Christ
mas tree and entertainment for the
children of the community and it
is expected that sufficient funds will
soon be available to enable the
various committees to begin active
preparations for the affair, which
is a big annual event in the lives of
Nenana youngsters and a pleasing
variation for grownups.
Subscription lists were placed at
various places about town several
days ago and all bachelors of the
district are invited to help the good
cause along. This applies to bachelor !:
girls, also, and to any others who
feel a desire to help brighten the
lives of the little folks. The cause
is a good one and there is no limit
to the amount of subscriptions.
In addition to the usual Christ
mas tree, there will be a children's
entertainment, given by the child
ren, for their own pleasure and for
the entertainment of their grownup
guests. Previous affairs of a similar
nature, arranged under the auspices
of the Bachelors, were huge success
es and an effort will be made to
make this year’s jollification fully
as enjoyable as any that have gone
before.
SENTIMMENT IN ARKANSAS
IS AGAINST NIGHT RIDING
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.—Responsi
ble sentiment in this state is run
ning strongly against night riding
which has been undertaken in this j
and other cotton-growing states to t
prevent the ginning and marketing!
of cotton at the present low price. !
Representative planters, bankers and j
businessmen feel strongly that the ;
lawlessness is giving the South a;
“black eye”.
At a recent meeting; of the Ar- j
kpnsas division of the American 1
Cotton Association here, night rid-!
ing was condemned as an act of j
gross ignorance. Governor Brough !
has taken a vigorous stand against!
night riding and he has a further
support, among others, from Claude
Fitzpatrick, president of the Arkan
sas Bankers association. All the
forces of the state and local gov
ernments in Arkansas are now eo-;
operating to prevent further law-1
lessness in the cotton ginning cen- '
ters.
This counter movement is be- j
lieved to be doing much to stop j
the activities of night riders. Mass I
meetings have been held in many |
towns and the cooperation of the;
citizens has been proffered officers j
in maintaining order.
Acts of violence for which nightj
riders have been given credit in '
Arkansas have taken various forms. (
In addition to the burning of gin.^, i
warehouses and other property, i
farmers who attempted to market>
their cotton have been threatened '
with death or severe punishment,
and in some cases have been badly
maltreated. Negro families have (
been intimidated and driven from !
their homes because they sought ‘
employment or worked as cotton
pickers. Hundreds of cotton gins in
various sections of the state have
been posted with warnings against j
continuing to buy and gin cotton,
the threatened penalties for not!
heeding the warning including the i
destruction of the plants and for- j
feiture of the lives of the owners, j
In one county eight men are now !
awaiting action of the grand jury!
on a charge of setting fire to a gin
nery,* and in another section of the
state three white farmers have been .
sentenced to a year’s imprisonment
and assessed heavy fines for intimi- J
dation of negro cotton pickers.
