MARION DAVIES
IN A NEW ROLE
In ',Beverly of Graustark" She
Plays a Mod ern Romantic
Girl.
Marlon D Lyles, her,One of many ro-
mantic roles, is pieying erre unlike
any in her entire caveer iir her eew
Cosmopolitan production, "Beverly
of Gtauetark," which opens on Fti•
day, at the Grand Theatre.
Miss Davies has played romantic
heroines in historical dramas of the
past ; has been the oentie of court
intrigues in tnediaveal times
played roles laid in the infancy of
of New York—but this tittle, she is
ptaying the comantic centre in a Eur-
opean court intrigue—but of the mod-
ern day.
Royalty goes through its devious
oliticaI Integainiugs abd its Burbank -
ea rotneeeces—just as in the days of
"When Knighthood was is: Flower"
but it is all stvictly up-to-dete—so
MUCh S., that t a great dee! of modern
history is, perhaps, unconsciously,
echoed in the story, which is a spect-
acular production of Genrge Barr
McOutcheon's famous novel.
Miss Davies plays the heroine, an
American girl, cousin to the crown
prince of a European kingdom, who,
to aid her royal relative, engages in a
daring masquerade, in which, in his
uniform arid tvith her hair clipped
short, she impetsonates him to MI
the plot of a pretender to the throne.
Miss D1151118' male masquerade is one
of the wonders of the screen, so per-
fect is the illusion. In her uniform,
the star is almost a double for the
Prince of Wales.

TWO CASES IN COUNTY
COURT LAST WEEK
Verdict for $500 for Damages Caus-
ed by Automobile
Two cases were on the list for the
County Court, held last week by His
Honor judge Lewis, at Goderieh.
Young et al. v. Coultis was tried
with a jury and Flynn et al. v. Kin-
berger was a non -jury case.
In the former case the plaintiffs
were Wm. H. Young and Thos. Stui-
dy. In 1924, John Cetinje., the de-
eadant, bought from plaintiff Stur-
dy the growing hay on land owned
by Sturdy M East Wawanosh. In
1 925 Sturdy sold the place to the
Plaintiff Young. It was claimed that
Coultis without authority stored his
hay hi 1924 in the barn on the prem -
,es and when the farm was sold in
925 he refused to give up posses -
ion of the barn, and he'd it until
ring after haying time in 1925. It
was claimed also that defendant in
mite of warning piled fifty-five tons
of baled hay in part of the barn that
was in a weakened condition and
thereby caused it to slide sir the
foundation. The claim was for 6500.
Defendant claimed that no objection
was made to his storing the hay in
the barn and when he was asked to
remove it he did.
The jury returned. a v:itdict for
the plaintiff for $25, to which Hl'
Honor added County Court coete. L.
E. Daneey for plaintiffs, R Vanstone
(Wing -ham) for defendant.
In the secend case the plaintiffs
were Owen Flynn, of Hulle et town-
ship, his wife, and his wife's e:eter,
Miss Evans. The three were driving
on an August evening in 1924 on the
Provincial Highway near Dublin,
when as they alleged, an autontobile
in which E. and Charles .Kinberger,
of Stratford, were driving end trav-
elling on the wrong side of the road,
crashed into their buggy and threw
them out, carying the buggy into the
ditch. All three sustained more or
less serious injuries, and the buggy
wile badly wrecked.
R. S. Hays (Seaforth) appeared
for the plaintiffs; the defreclante
were not represented. Judgment
was given for the plaintiffs, and the
damages were assessed at $500.
