“STREET OF SIN” EMIL
JANNINGS' LATEST ONE
Show of Better Than the Usual Type,
Comes to Grand Next Monday
and Tuesday.
London's slums have been called the
cup that holds the world’s dregs. That |
would appeal to Emil Jannings, char-
acter star as a setting for his dramatic
talents, and the idea, evolvird by
has been transferred into a motion pic-
| ture called “The Street of Sin.”
This new Paramount production, Jan-
nings’ third in America, a successor to
| his magnificent success, “The Way of
all flesh, is declared by many to be ev-
| en more powerful int heme and charac-
| terization. It will have its local pre-
| miere at the Grand theatre on Mon-
day and Tuesday next.
1 The story is by Joseph Von Stern-
{berg and Benjamin Glazier, and deals
| with the life of a huge rowdy, who rules
| the slums with his fists, portrayed by
Jannings.
{ The essential charact
| to the star are Fay Wray, leading wo-
|man for Eric Von Stroheim in “The
| Wedding March,” and Ogla Backlano-
| va, noted actress of the Moscow Art
Theatre. The former is a Salvation Ar-
[my girl who sets up a shelter in the
| slums; the latter portrays one of the
| fallen sisterhoo dwho is in love with
{ Jannings.
The sainliness of Fay Wray,
i growing goodness of Madame Backla-
Inova and the devilishness of Jannings
| continue until almost the end of the
picture when a tragic climax brings the
[star to a point of real regeneration.
| All in all, its one of the best pictures
| of the season.

FORECAST A BLENTIFUL SUP-
PLY OF TURKEYS THIS YEAR
The 1928 turkey crop in the leading
| producing states is about four per cent
[larger than the 1827 crops, according
|to the Federal-State Crop Reporting
1 Service, Pennsylvania Department of
| Agriculture.
| The greatest increase this year is in
| the western states, especially Washing-
| ton, Oregon, California, Nevada, Utah,
|and Idaho. This is attributed in part
to the development of commercial hat-
ching and the sale of day old poults.
The north central states also have a
| noticeable reduction.
The Pennsylvania crop is reported as
98 per cent of the 1927 production, with
the birds in fair to good condition.
“Weather conditions this year on
the whole, were more favorable to tur-
key production than last year in all
areas,” the report states, “except the
South, although excessive rains and
| cool weather in June caused considera-
ble losses in many sections. With feed
supplies plenty and relatively cheap,
the conditions of the crop by the end
of November should be average or bet-
ter, if the weather continues favorable.
WIDOW IS A VISITOR
WITH SON IN EBENSBURG
Mrs. Robert E. Peary, widow of Ad-
miral Peary, noted explorer, who is
credited with being the first man to
reach’ the North Pole, stopped off in
Ebensburg on Wednesday of last week
| enroute from a vacation trip in Cana-
da to her home in Washington, D.
She was accompanied by her son and
they spent a few hours in Ebensburg.
| While at the county seat Mrs. Peary
and her son visited Attorney and Mrs.
M. D. Kittell, an Ebensburg banker,
{who is one of the active members of
the Peary Memorial Association. She
| expressed deep interest in the associa-
i tion’s efforts to erect a memorial on
the site of Admiral Peary’s birthplace
|at Cresson.
Mrs. Peary did not say whether or
| not she would return to this county for
|any future activities of the memorial
| association, but members of the com-
| mittee are of the opinion that the ad-
|miral’s widow will be present at dedi-
cation of the Peary monument in the
levent it is erected.
