Lionel Barrymore in His Greatest Screen Role. Critics have termed Lionel Barry- more's portrayal of the role of Dr, Leyden, in "Body and Soul" coming to the Grand Theatre next Tuesday and Wednesday, as one of the great• est characterizations of the dramatic field. This noted actor's work in this vividly colorful picture will live a- mong the finest bits of acting the screen has ever known. The story is based on Katharine Newlin Burt's "best seller." "The Branding Iron," and is a romantic tale of love in the Swiss Alps. The picture was direct- ed by Reginald Barker, and Aileen Pringle and Norman Kerry have the leading romantic roles. The role of the comical Swiss postman, whose antics precipitate a tragedy, is plav- ed by T. Roy Barnes, famous on both screen and stage as a character comedian, Brussels United Church REV, A.

Vivid Circus Atmosphere in "Bigger Than Barnum's" The essence of that greatest of all "Shows," the circus, is caught and litld in deathless celluloid in "Bigger Than Barnum's," which will be seen at the Grand Theatre on Friday and Saturday, May 18 and 18. Herald - i, ed in Hollywood as an outstanding hit, the production boasts an except- ionaI cast as well as a strong melo- dramatic story of the sawdust arena, whore life goes onand the public ] must be pleased, ead whatever the dan- ger to the actors or their own per- sonal footings. Viola Dana is saicl to have one of the most colorful roles of her career as the little high -wire acrobat. and Ralph Lewis gives a splendidly sincere performance, ala the old acrobat who is loosing his grip through advancing years. Geo. O'Hara takes the part of the son, and Ralph Ince gives an unusual inter- pretation to the villain's character. These four great players collaborate in one of the best interpretations of which any picture can boast, and the direction of Mr. Ince is powerful throughout. The story, which gets away from the circus itself long en- ough to permit of a spectacular fire sequence in which a thrilling rescue is performed high above the street. is the work of Arthur Guy Empey, and has been ably adapted 'to the screen by J. Grubb Alexander. Death of D. K. Prior. Tho. -.:Clinton News Record last week had the following obituary of a former resident of this town many years ago: -On Monday afternoon after about a three week's illness during which time he had been a patient in the Clinton Hospital, D. R. Prior, one of Clinton's best knews citizens breathed his last. Mr. Prior who was in his seventy-ninth year, had been a citizen of Clinton for a - about thirty-eight years and we feel safe in saying that no other man was held in more universal esteem in the community that he. He was known by all to be a man of strict integrity one who held strong convictions of right and wrong and who at all times had the courage of his convictions, and wire was withal so kindly and friendly and pleasant that he made friends with everyone and enemies of none. Mr, Prior was born in England but came to Canada with his family when very young. About thirty-eight years ago he came to Clinton. He had spent some time in Brussels, Blyth and Exeter, where he had resided with a brother, and lie lived here ever since. He never married and he was the last of his own family, but he is survived by several nephews and nieces., Two sister -in-laws, Mrs. Thomas Prior, of Exeter, and Mrs. John Prior, of Cleveland, N. Dakota, also survive. Mr, Prior was a member of the Bap- tist church, in which he held differ- ent offices, over a long period of years, He held the office of deacon for many years and was Senior deacon at the time of his death, Ile had been superintendent of the Sun- day School for nearly thirty years and at the time of his death S. S. and church treasurer and was teach- er of the Bible class, being at his post the Sunday before he entered the hospital. 1'4e had also been col- lector for the Bible Society in his church for many years. The funeral service was held in the Baptist church yesterday afternoon, .being conducted by Rev, Mr, Grecy, assist- qd by Rev, G. I. Burns, of Salford, a HI hey Wh.lesale Why not buy your honey whole- sale? The only way for my to sell you that way is to have it in 60 1E tins. It is less trouble to me and comes cheaper to you.

Hawke. The service was rttended by many friends who wished to pay a last tribute of es- teem •to one known and beloved through many years. The remains were taken to Exeter for interment in the family plot, beside his brother. The funeral was held under the ons- pkes of the LO.O.F. of which he was a member. The pallbearers were: John Wiseman, L. J. Heard, T. J. Managhan, Elmer Finch, L. Crce and H. Lawson.

Because of the serious nature of bee diseases it is illegal to keep bees, even one colony, without a permit. The object of this registrati'onis not to prevent people keeping bees but to assist the inspectors in locating bees and to assist in the financing of the same. Every bee owner should welcome the inspector because the locating of disease in its early stages not only saves you money but pre- vents your yard becoming a menace to all the bees within a three-mile' radius. Peter B. Kyne Story at the Grand Theatre Friday and Saturday, Shimmering with the glamour and :romance of the South Sea "Breed of the Sea" is coming to the Grand Theatre on Friday to begin a two day run, bringing with it the unfor- gettable atmosphere of the Java Coast and the flaming unrostraint of life "East of Suez." With the triple genius of Ralph Ince as director and dual star of the picture, in which he gives a superb impersonation of beth the missionary and the pirate captain the film has an unusuor and gripping quality that insures its place as one of the outstanding photo -dramas of the year. Margaret Livingston is splendid as the exotic island girl, and carries the chief feminine role with extraordinary charm.
