UTAH Mini m;i TIERING 1'KTl ltl; One shudder In picking up a news be paper. Almost surely there will Oil a report of a fatal aulo crash. Monday, especially, the papers seem to teem with sad tales of loo much speed. All too often our attention Is called to trashes causing death and suffering. East week we read of a crash In Halt jik that cost four lives lives that were worth preserving. Four young people, 20 to 26 years of age, were at on Instant exhlltrated by the nipping brees of a little ride, when suddenly a "Road Closed" sign appears. There are no brakes to bold. A awing, a swerve, a crash, and death cam all In an Instant. Too much speed! Kurh accidents are not confined to any city or stale. They are all about u Eatb year as w go over the records we find that we have burled over 6,600 victims In the United Kiates and have maimed another 30.000! What of the situation locally? Do We do. we have too much speed? Only yesterday, the writer saw a heavily loaded truck slip through town at a forty-mil- e clip, and Just at the noon hour whn the schools were pouring their precious charges Into the streets of the city. Following the truck, came a sedan traveling at a moderate rate of speed, and strangely enough. It very nearly experienced a aerlou accident. Two small girls were playing "tag" on tho wav home from school, and, perfectly oblivious of any harm or danger, they ran directly in front of the sedan. Thanks to this driver, who was using care and Judgment, an accident was averted. Hut had these tots been a moment earlier, and found themselves In the path of the truck, an accident most certainly would have oeen tb result. Our beautiful wide main street Is a temptation to drivers who are going on long Journeys and too often they fall to lift their foot off the gas whun they reach our city limits. They should be checked up; and especially If they have not the good Judgment to slow down during the few minutes when children are on their way to or from school. There comes a time when It Is too late. Let's not wait. WHIN HEBEI The opening of talking pictures at the Angelo Theatre, which follows lh Installation of a Western Electric Hound Hystem, marks the consummation of a long period of researrh. The Western Electric Hound system was designed by the Hell Telephone laboratories, which have for year been the leading organisation In the world devoted to tb problems of acoustic engineering. It waa manufactured by the Western Electric Co. which has manufactured sound transmission apparatus since 1166. The first public showing of tb sound pie- lure was mad before a skeptical New York audience In the summer of 1624, Despite Imperfections In this initial exhibition, the posalbllty of makng sound pictures a commercial reality waa so vivid that the motion picture producers Immediately took up tb trait. luslde of another year teg of the leadlug motion picture producers had signed a contract to record sound and talking pictures by the Western Electric Hystem.

RIVES PIRATE" GREAT THRILLER FILMED BY FOX Those who have read The River by Charles Francis Coe, Pirate, which recently ran in the Saturday Evening Post, and which comes to the Angelus Theatre for an engagement of two days, Friday and Saturday of this week, recall, most of all, that it was primarily, the story of a boy who never had a chance until he met tbe girl who plucked him from a life of crime and brought him back to decency and to her. The central figures are a pair of bon companions, a hard boiled sailor and a mere youth, who team together and engage in river piracy working in the dark of the night and ever pursued by the watchful harbor po- lice. This provides for Just a few more thrils than come to the usual motion picture and stresses the old maxim that there is good in everyone if the right spot be touched. Incidentally, it goes far to prove that reform schools do not always reform. Victor McLaglen plays the stellar role of the river pirate with his companion tnacted by Nick Ttuart, and Lois Moran as the girl in the cast, while Earle Foxe is in the part of the. double crossing "shark, Mew York Life Your New York Life In- surance Policies represent the best contract that fts possible to get in that line.
