Make sure yoim*** gasoline, isn't, "one-sided.*"
Perhaps it's a .good starter, but it may also
be a poor finisher. Good gasoline has endurance!   Dixie gasoline is that kind!
Test it for starting, acceleration
and power and mileage and Dixie
will prove, itself to he tlie gasoline for yon!

MONTE BLUE PLATS
PIGHTING SE.f ROYER
Blue Lined in Real Life What He Portrays So Well- as A Scrapping
Screen Hero.
Monte Blue, star of Warner Brotlv
•ers "Bitter Applies," is again casti in
,» part which, gives the husky favorite
a ohain.ee t» be himself. Not that he.
cannot with eq.ua)1. fidelity portray the
sophisticate. These who have seen
him in those subtle whimsicalities of
lisi.it comedy, '"Thie Marriage Circle;,"
"■'Kiss Me Agaiiji," "The Man
Upstairs" or "Sky This Is Paris," will,
vouch .for his ability to portray the
man of the world.
But there is another uproarriojus,
knock-'em-down-p ick-'em-jip Monte
Blue. . Witness "Red Hob Tires,"
"Hogan's Alley," "The- Limited Mail,'-
"Wolf's Clothing" and "Across the Pacific." Blue's life has been none of
the silver spoon variteies. After
years in a Soldiers-' .and -Sailors'- Orphanage and some time spent iu a
Manual Training School in his native
Indiana., he set forth .on his own.
He has been an ax-s-wlnger in the
North Woods, a stoker "in strips, a
miner, a, nuttcker,, he did his hit for
Uncle Sam in, the army, he has harvested graini in th*. West, he has
farmed: and. been aai agitator for underpaid labor, and he has counted the
ties and ridden the bumpers, though
now he is ai confirmed, Hollywooodite
with a wife and the brightest baby
extant. i
In "Bitter Applies" Monte, has a part
after his .own neart, .and ii,as made
the most ol it His leading lady is
the exquisite Myrna Loy. Others in
the cast are Paul* Ellis, Charles Hill
Maales, Sydney de Grey, Rjuby Blaine
and Robert Bary. Harold McGrath's
famous sitory was the basis for the
scenario. Harry Hosyti directed the
production.
"Bitter Apples" comes, to the Liberty theatre for Saturday and Sunday.
THAT   BETTER   DAY
Rev. Reuben Crosby
Will the tumult and. the jangle -
01" this, restless world, e'er cease?
Shall we ever hail the coming
Of the blessed Prince of Peace?
Will this strife and wild confusion
Settle into endless calm?
And from north to south re-echo
One melodious holy psalm?
Will the warring nations ever
UniVersal Brothers be?
Will the Christian churches ever
Live in Christian unity?
Shall we ever all united
Stand against man's common foe?
Will all evil ever mingle*
In one gener-al"overtlifow?
Will the future disappoint us.
As the years that have gone by?
Is the promise we are trusting
One on which we can rely?
We believe the world is moving
To that consummation grand.
When o'er all its wide extension.
This shall be Immanuel's land.
What the Savior lived ancl died for,
What he lives again to do.
Shall be done., and in the doing
There's a place for- me ancl you.
Let us labor then together.
With Him all be workers true..
And thus hasten on the period
When He maketh all tilings new.

course of study.

That he is dead.    He is just aiway!
With a  cherry smile, and a wave

He  has  w.*ndered  into   an  -unknown

And left us dreaming how very fair
It must be. sin.ce he lingers there.
And you, O yoir, who the wildest yearn
For the old-time stiep' and glad return:
Think of him faring on, ,as- dear.
In the love of There as the love of

Think of him stall as the same, I say:
