McManus cartoons, which is to be p
shown at the Titus Theatre Friday i|j

In working out the script for the
picture at the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
■ttudios, Frances Marion, the scena-
rist, began by collecting back files of
the cartoons. She had three years
of the funny pictures before her when
she started in, picking out incident
after incident to work together into
the finished story. It begins with
the landing of the Jiggses in Ameri-(
can, tseerage passengers from Ire-
land and ends with Maggie and Jiggs
ly Moran, the first women’s comedy
team in history, Miss Moran playing
Maggie and Miss Dressier Mrs. Dinty
Moore. J. Farrell MacDonald, of the
“Iron Horse” fame, plays Jiggs,
while Jules Cowles is seen as Dinty
Moore. Other? in the cast are Ger-
trude Olmsted, Grant Withers, Tenen
Iloltz, Rose Dione, Andres de Seguro-
la, David Mir, Bull Montana and manjt‘
others of note.

cesses, was director of the new pro-

American Bankers’ Magazine—No
business .man in any town should al-
T_low a newspaper published in his
town to go without his name and bu-
siness mentioned somewhere in its
columns. This applies to all kinds
of business—general stores, dry
goods, groceries, furniture dealers,
manufacturing establishments, auto-
mobile dealers, mechanics, profession-
al men, druggists, and in fact all
classes of business men.: This does
not mean that you should have a
whole or half or even a quarter page

Nothing is known concerning the
identity of the “wise men.” All that
we learn from the gospel is that
“wise men” appeared bringing gifts
of gold, frankincense and myrrh. We

idea arises from the fact that there
were three gifts. Some of the early
Christian writers still name them,
giving their names as Melchoir, Gas-
par and Balthasar. Persia would pro-
bably be the place from which they

business mentioned in the paper.
This is the best possible town ad-
vertiser. The man who does not ad-
vertise. his business does an injustice
to himself and the town. The man
who is sharing the business that
conies to town but refuses to adver-
tise his own is not a valuable addi-
tion to any town. The life and the
snap of the town depends upon the
wide-awake, liberal advertising men.
It’s the truth.
