The Savings
Habit
The savings habit is what counts these
days, and there was never a better time to
start than right now. The sooner you start,
the sooner the amounts will pile up to a
substantial sum. Laying, aside, a little each"
week is easy and you'll never miss it. And
you don't have to call upon your imagination very hard to realize what, a benefit it
will be to you, should you be suddenly called
upon to use it.

"THE TRAIL OF '98"
! COMING  TO LIBERTY
Gripping Drama to Be Shown Saturday and Sunday.
[ Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer's primary
concern in planing the production of
"The Trail of".'98" was-the perfect
cast without -which no amount of
money and .care could possibly succeed.
-Harry Carey in the, role of Jack
Loeasto proves to be the most despicable villain the screen has _ever
known. You'll hate his every grimace, his eyery action, his every unspoken thought; the finest performance he has ever rendered. The balance of the cast abounds with names
noted for screen characterizations—
Karl Dane as Petersen, there's bound
to be humor, rare humor, wherever
he is concerned. As a lumbering,
tireless, good-humored Cheechako he
lends a wealth of color and entertainment to this production.
Others that reach new heights are
Gary Cooper as The Worm, Tehen
Holtz as Mr. Bulkey, Tully Marshall
as Salvation Jim, Emily Fitzfoy as
Mrs. Bulkey, Russell Simpson as Old
Swede, Caesare Gravina" and "Johnny
Downs—all characters from the great
story that has come to life again in
this remarkable, motion picture.
