LIBERTY TONIGHT
Seldom has been seen such mar
velous character delineation at that
portrayed by the adorable Constance
Binney In the Realart picture, “The
Case of Beckey," which opens at the
Liberty tonight. In it she, essays
j the dual personality of Dorothy Stone
! the heroine of Edward Locke’s play
j In which Frances Starr scored a hit
under the direction of David Belasco
(several years ago.
Dorothy is the unwilling protege
of Balzamo, ji professional hypnotist
with a traveling show, whose cruelty
brought about the death of her mo
ther. She runs away and is later
succored by a kindly old lady and
{her son, John Arnold. It is only
I natural that he should fall in love
i with the charming little ward and she
! with him. But one day, like a light
ning flash, a sudden change comes
'■over her and from the lovable, con
fiding sweetheart she becomes a bra
zen, fiendish imp who calls herself
i Becky. These changes are only tem
! porary, but one never knows when
(they will take place.

DRY WEATHER CAUSES
FIRE WARNING FROM ,
U. S. FOREST SERVICE'
_ I ’
A request for all persons on outings '
to take every precaution possible in '
the use of campfires and smudges ’
was issued today from local U. S. >
Forest Service headquarters, con- 1
tinued dry weather making such re- ‘
quest advisable, It was stated. The \
almost total absence of rainfall of the *
past several weeks, it was said, has
resulted in the woods becoming
dryer than for years and makes fire (
hazards dangerous. ‘
'the fine weather prevailing almost
all summer, said District Forester (
C. H .Flory. has attracted hundreds of _
people out of doors. Up to the pres
ent time there have been no forest I
flrqs in the local district *but UO
waitched campfires can easily cause
dl^aatrous fire* under existing condi
tions. Campers and picnickers are
tbqrefore requested to be very careful
in. extinguishing campfires and f
imudges, using sand or water and
naking certain that every rarticle of
ire is put out before leaving thpm.
Only one fire has been reported this
icason in the Tongass Forest. This
vas discovered last week in Muddy
liver valley on the mainland north
‘ast of Petersburg. The stand of tim
>er there is very heavy and comprises
>art of the pulp timber leasing unit
or the Thomas Bay power site bid
in last week by Hutton. McNear &
Jaugherty. The extent of the damage
s unknown.
