HAREM BEAUTIES HAIL "ANITIA" IN WILLIAM FOX'S MILLION
DOLLAR PICTURE BEAUTIFUL, "A DAUGHTER OF THE GODS."
Before a gathering of wealthy New
York women interested in welfare,
the leading spirit of which is Anne
Morgan, daughter of the late financier,
Annette Kellermann. whose perfect
waistline as shown in "A Daughter of
the Gods," William Fox's million-dol
lar picture beautiful, was never
achieved by artificial molding, spoke
generally on the subject of tight
clothing.
This remarkable production, "A
Daughter of the Gods." has been book
ed by Manager James George, of the
Victoria Theater, for a return engage
ment next Monday and Tuesday. It
will be shown at the usual Victoria
prices of 15 cents to adults and 10
cents for children at all times.
"We read much of the demon-wo
men of the Middle Ages," Miss Kel
lermann began, "and, of course, to our
latter day observers they seem quite
incomprehensible. One is at a loss to
understand how a woman with such
a lovely faco as Mary, Queen of Scots,
for instance, could have deliberately
planned and gloried in assassinations,
At the

ing were smaller than they have been
for the past few weeks, doubtless
because stores will be open on the
coming Monday and it will be easier
to purchase provisions. A smaller
number of provisions than usual
greeted the buyers with their wares
and the variety of products for sale
was small. Prices:
Potatoes, $1.60; sweet potatoes,
$4; fresh eggs, 38 cents; ham, (ac
cording to quality) 25-55 cents; lima
beans, 10 cents; chickens, 40 cents;
cabbage, 3-10 cents; chickens, (live

ASH REMOVER IS
BEING INSTALLED
Valley Railways Company Is
Making Improvements
to Better Service
In order to increase the efficiency
at the big electric plant of the Val
ley railways plant ht. Lemoyne, a
skip liolst ash remover is being in
stalled at the plant and will he com
pleted by April 1. Tills is only one
of the numerous improvements
which were planned for the plant.
Most of the others have been aband
oned because of the war. A repre
sentative of the R. H. Beaumont
Company, of Philadelphia, which is
installing the new machinery, said
to-day:
"At its power plant, in Lemoyne,
I hey were attempting to handle ashes
by blowing them through a pipe
Willi steam which method not only
scattered ash dust all over the sur
rounding neighborhood, but was a
constant annoyance on account of
wear and required more men and
power to operate than if they had
used the old-fashioned hand shovel
ing method. Therefore, it was their
patriotic duty to install some equip
ment less expensive in labor and ma
terial. This they have recently con
tracted for in the form of a Skip
Hoist. This consists simply of a steel
pliite bucket on wheels pulled up
steel tracks by a rope attached to
nil electric winding machine and
dumped Into an ash bin set on col
umns so that the company's ash
cars can run under the bin and re
ceive a load of ashes to be used as
ballast along their lines.
"The ashes will be taken from the
hoppers under the boilers in a little
ash car which dumps into the Skip
bucket. A push on the button starts
the bucket up and the operator goes
back for more ashes, while the buck
et discharges into the bunker, re
verses and comes to rest at the bot
ton ready for another load. The chief
advantages of this equipment are:
Nothing to wear out, little power
consumed lo operate, and minimum
amount of labor required."
