UNITED THEATRE TONIGHT Baby Peggy The Wonder Child in Her Latest Super-Feature "HELEN'S BABIES" LAUGH, SMILE, HEART THROB—AND A THRILL STAN LAUREL IN "MONSIEUR DON'T CARE" ROBERT STRANG at the Organ TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY East of Broadway Owen Moore—Mary Curtis Manhattan Public Library PROTEST MISUSE OF CHURCH NAME Members of the local Seventh Day Adventist church have protested in conjunction with their church paper, the Signs of The Times, against the use of the name Seventh Day Adventist in connection with Mrs. Margaret W. Rowen of Los Angeles, who predicted the end of the world for midnight Feb. 5. Local members of this denomination say they have been very much embarrassed since the prominence given this "prophecy" in the newspapers because Mrs. Dowen, they say, is not a member of their church and her "prophecies" have always been opposed by them. In a lengthy article defending their church against this calumny The Signs of The Times: "Be it any PRESENT BULGIN WITH $2000 GIFT (Continued from Page One) they reached the platform, R. Myers, as spokesman, after some words of appreciation for the many sufficient services rendered by Bulgin to the community and surrounding country, announced to the Klan presented the doctor's sum of $500. After expressing sincere gratitude for the gift, Bulgin propounded some queries part of which follow: 1—Is it a fact that the Klan seeks to restore the Bible to public schools? 2—Does the Klan believe building up American industry as opposed to those of other countries? 3—Does the Klan everywake pray for the revival of religion all the land? 4—Does the Klan stand for per cent Americanism? An affirmative answer was en to all the queries. Carter then sang in a very fective manner, "Too Late!" Dr. Bulgin exhorted the parish to set up the family altar, urged the new converts to fly church home especially where would be fed and kindly care in a spiritual way. Carter then sang "Will You Ready Should the Death W Knock at Your Chamber Door? Dr. Bulgin's sermon was on the parable of the five wives the five foolish virgins, Mat Jesus was a wonderful story he spoke in parables, new fables. A fable is something true but it teaches a good life. A parable is both true and teal truth. The ten virgins were invited help at the reception of the groom when he came and nesses of his worthiness to "East of Broadway” Is Packed With Thrills Thrills and stirring melodrama are to be seen at the United theatre, where “East of Broadway” is the feature attraction Tuesday and Wednesday. This new picture is worthy of the highest praise. The story, direction and cast leave absolutely nothing to be desired in the way of entertainment. The film shows the attempts of an East Side boy to get on the New York police force. Peter Mullaney, played by Owen Moore, has only one ambition in life and that is to be a cop. Although rejected at first, he eventually proves himself more than worthy to wear the badge and uniform of the "finest." Interwoven with the main theme of the story, is a great deal of heart interest and mother love. Judith McNulty, played by Marguerite De La Motte, is a poor homeless wail of the streets, who has escaped from an orphan asylum. She is taken in and cared for by Mrs. Morrissey (Mary Carr), who keeps the boarding house where Mullaney happens to live. Peter falls in love with her on sight and after a thrilling robbery, in which he name Seventh Day Adventist in connection with Mrs. Margaret W. Rowen of Los Angeles, who predicted the end of the world for midnight Feb. 6. Local members of this denomination say they have been very much embarrassed since the prominence given this "prophecy" in the newspapers because Mrs. Dowen, they say, is not a member of their church and her "propheles" have always been opposed by them. In a lengthy article defending their church against this calamny The Signs of The Times: "Be it known to all concerned that any and all those people who call themselves Reformed Seventh-Day Adventists, 'Rowenites,' or followers of Mrs. Rowen's chief supporters, B. P. Fullmer, are in no sense Seventh Day Adventists, and we disavow and repudiate them and their teaching." This denomination, the article continues, believes in the imminent return of Christ because of the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, but refute any data-setting by Christ's own words in Mark 12:32. "Of that day and hour knoweth no man, no not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father." "In the light of this Scripture," says the article, "we have maintained from the very first day when Mrs. Rowen made her prophecy that her prediction would prove a bubble; for if the angels of heaven and Christ the Son do not even know the exact time of the second coming, how could a woman in Los Angeles find it out? That Mrs. Rowen is one of the false prophets, whom Christ foresees is indisputable." "Helen’s Babies,” which, as the book has been a best seller in every country in the world since its publication 40 years ago, as the picture starring Baby Peggy literally breathes the wonderful story of home life on the screen at the United theatre, where it opened yesterday for a run of two days. Baby Peggy is a perfect Toddy, the little girl about whom John Habberton wrote so beautifully in “Helen’s Babies.” She is supported by a brilliant cast, among which are such established cinema artists as Edward Everett Horton, Clara Bow, Claire Adams, Richard Tucker and many others. The writer is willing to give any odds on a bet that if a census were taken the unanimous opinion of yesterday’s audiences at the United theatre would have been that “Helen’s Babies” as the picture is a marvous screen visualization of a book which is conceded to be the greatest story of home life ever published. The program offered at this popular playhouse is one of the best seen in this city in a long time and Manager Anderson is to be complimented. The music played by Robert Strang was very good and was well received. LAST ADAM MADE QUICKENING SPIRIT The Sunday morning sermon at the Undeniominational Church of the Lord (Holliness), 511 North Olive-st, was preached by Miss Eleanor Heughan, assistant pastor, from I Cor. 15:15: "The first Adam was made a living soul, the last Adam a quickening spirit." God created man a living soul with the image of his Creator, which is righteousness and true holiness (Eph. 4.24), and told him that in the day he ate of the forbidden fruit he should surely die. Man broke the commandment of God and died spiritually, and lost the image of God out of his soul, and became morally then sang "Will You Ready Should the Death Knock at Your Chamber Door? Dr. Bulgin’s sermon was on the parable of the five wise virgins, Mat Jesus was a wonderful story to He spoke in parables, new fables. A table is something true but it teaches a good lie. A parable is both true and true to truth. The ten virgins were invited help at the reception of the groom when he came and adored his worthiness to into the marriage relation. They were all dressed alice were alike in size and pli appearance. All had lace pieces of ligium vita wood cord wrapped around one ear that soaked in oil and light. This was to be carried hand while suspended above neck by a cord and carried other hand was a vessel should carry extra oil. This difference in these ten was that five had foretold to supply themselves with oil and five did not do so were the foolish ones. They all slumbered and slept late them open to criticis was the privilege of all to watch for the coming bridegroom and arouse them time to go out to meet him when they heard the warmth of the messenger, they all trim their lamps. All lam sense had gone out but they had brot extra oil with their trim and fill their lamp light them. But the foolish virgins only trim their lamp. The five wise virgins to show them of their oil but this fused. Why? Because represented character—as would meet their approval and allow them to be numbered among those of God. The five whose could not share their oil other virgins because cannot be divided and elitic. The parable does not pertain after death because if the five foolish virgins and bot oil for their last found the door shut without returned and could not enter. Dr. Bulgin told a moral story relating to a motif daughter. In one of his Kentucky young, beautiful girl to a rich family was she washed to unite with Baptist church of which her sisters were members mother refused to let she determined that she learn to dance and have time. At the girls re-Bulgin called to talk mother but the mother amant. Dr. Bulgin pray in her presence which mained scornful and ob proves himself more than worthy to wear the badge and uniform of the "fineest." Interwoven with the main theme of the story, is a great deal of heart interest and mother love. Judith McNulty, played by Marguerite De La Motte, is a poor homeless waif of the streets, who has escaped from an orphan asylum. She is taken in and cared for by Mrs. Morrissey (Mary Carr), who keeps the boarding house where Mullaney happens to live. Peter falls in love with her on sight and after a thrilling robbery, in which he is badly wounded while capturing the bandits, they are united for better or worse and all ends well. GOLFERS AT PLAY DEL MONTE, Feb. 9. — More than 50 of the leading women golfers of the United States, east and west, are gathered in Del Monte for the annual Pebble Beach championship, which will start with the qualifying round on Wednesday. Chief interest centers around the present titleholder, Miss Marion Hollins, of New York, former national champion, and Mrs. H. C. Hutchings of Winnipeg, Canada. These two rank among the leading players of America and have generally been favorites to win. At the same time Ohio has sent a strong delegation to Del Monte for this event. Miss Louise Fordyce of Youngstown, heads this group and no more fitting leader could be found. With her can be found Miss Jeanette Kinney, Miss Dorothy Richards, Miss Hazel Laluge and Miss Louise Krauter, all of Cleveland. It would not be surprising to see the Cleveland stars win this event. California will be well represented by Miss Mary K. Browne, runner-up in the national championship last summer. Miss Margaret Cameron of Annandale, Miss Ann Webster of Los Angeles; Mrs. W. C. Van Antwerp of San Francisco; Miss Alice Hanchett of San Francisco and two score more. Income Tax Specialist LADYS E WOLEE SENT BULGIN WITH $2000 GIFT (continued from Page One) Reached the platform, Rev. as spokesman, after some of appreciation for the magt services rendered by Dr. to the community and suring country, announced that presented the doctor the $500. After expressing his gratitude for the gift, Dr. propounded some queries, which follow: Is it a fact that the Klan to restore the Bible to the schools? Does the Klan everywhere for the revival of religion in the land? Does the Klan stand for 100 cent Americanism? Affirmative answer was givall the queries. After then sang in a very effect manner, "Too Late!" Bulgin exhorted the people up the family altar. He the new converta to find a home especially where they be fed kindly cared for spiritual way. After then sang "Will You Be My Should the Death Angel At Your Chamber Door?" Bulgin's sermon was based on parable of the five wise and five foolish virgins, Matt. 25. It was a wonderful story teller, spoke in parables, never in a fable is something not but it teaches a good lesson. A fable is something not but it teaches a good lesson. A fable is something not but it teaches a good lesson. DEMPSEY MEETS GIBBONS JUNE 5 NEW YORK, Feb. 9.—Professing to have implicit confidence in Jack Dempsey's readiness to indulge in a busy summer, Tex Rickard today named Yankee stadium as the locality and June 5 as the tentative date of the champions proposed meeting with Tom Gibbons for the heavyweight champship. A provision in the articles of agreement, the promoter added will call for the winner to frolie with Harry Wills next September, thus indicating that that is our Mr. Rickard's story and he is going to stick to it. It is no star chamber secret that Wills may not be permitted to box for the title in this section now or at any future date but Rickard is one who covers all bets. He merely wants to have the Wills bout in his bag in the event that the negro is officially tolerated as a championship principal here. Furthermore the dangling of Wills in the background of a Dempsey-Gibbons match is not expected to injure its attendance. Rickard, therefore, is concentrating all of his attention upon the Gibbons meeting while Chag. L. Henderson, who is making some mentions about building a stadium at Long Island City, is frankly in the field for a Dempsey Wills match only. In addition to deciding upon a tentative date and site, Rickard also has decided that Dempsey and Gibbons will box at night and that both must be on the ground at least a month before the actual proceedings. He says he has the champion's assurance, given thru his man of business, Jack Kearn that all will be per Mr. Rickard's wishes. 14 TEAMS ARE TIED CHICAGO, Feb. 9.—The 14 teams started the six-day SARGUM PROUTINGS Judging from the gush that Jack Dempsey is oozing out about his new wife, Estelle Taylor Dempsey, one would imagine that he was 17 instead of 29. Puppy love days are no sweeter than this romance of the pugilist champion of the world. It is hardly believable that-the champion has fallen so hard and to think this is far from being his first romance. Jack says that he has not retired from the ring; Estelle would rather he would but he is going to wear the trousers and fight when he gets ready. There are a couple of hard eggs that are just itching for the champ to get ready. One is a big black man and the other is a little man as heavyweights go. If Jack is not going to draw the color line, he should meet the "Black Panther" just to give that persistent person a chance. If Harry Wills can keep his hands from injury, Estelle may not have to wait long for the champ's retirement. Tommy Gibbons stayed 15 rounds with the champion and should have a line on that person's ability. Tommy is anxious to meet the champ again, and Tommy, usually very modest in predictions, claims that there will be a new champion if he ever meets Mr. Dempsey. If Dempsey can best these two men he could rightly retire as the undefeated champion of the world, for there are no others in the Gibbons-Wills class. Next Tuesday evening at Doyle's Varnon arena the fight fans will have a chance to witness Kid Kaplin. STOCKS INCLINING TO BE ERRORS NEW YORK, Feb. 9.—of a few of the high-pidustrial stocks, the sugar some of the motors, the mof prices was somewhat eveday. The failure of the carto carry thru was a disment, tho this was due lmong of oil leaders to tton to explain the recent revances in gasoline prices. The sensational markements were furnished by priced leaders in the industry after noon hour, a g points for the day. The unusually active and nancial district it was that the company’s distribution of a part oprofits would soon be owed. American Can also pawd to the highest price record, selling above 176 trading shortly after hour. National Lead was a strong spot, in trial list. Special strength was in the tobacco, sugar and sugars continued last week. Cruise advancing to 32½ American, pfd., to 62, for the year. Fina-ling, which is slated later in the year, recorder four points and soo Tobacco Products, A bacco and American featured the tobacco stock Maxwell “A” and Trucks and Studebaker erate rally in the more course of which M gained about two point featureless. Call more than 4% per The virgins were invited to attend the reception of the bride when he came and as witnesses of his worthiness to enter the marriage relation. They were all dressed alike and were alike in size and physical appearance. All had lamps—cases of lignum vitia wood with wrapping around one end and soaked in oil and lighted. This was to be carried in one hand while suspended about the neck by a cord and carried in the other hand was a vessel which would carry extra oil. The only reference in these ten virgins is that five had foretoth enough supply themselves with extra food and five did not do so. They are the foolish ones. That they slumbered and sleep does not open to criticism. It is the privilege of all to do so. They had appointed a messenger watch for the coming of the midgroom and arouse them in one go to meet him. Then they heard the warning cry from their lamps. All lamps in a sense had gone out but those who brot extra oil with them could dim and fill their lamp and re-light them. But the foolish virgins could only trim their lamp. They asked the five wise virgins to share with them of their oil but this was refused. Why? Because this oil represented character—such character as would meet the Divine approval and allow the possessor to be numbered among the people of God. The five wise virgins could not share their oil with the other virgins because character cannot be divided and shared. The parable does not teach resentance after death because even if the five foolish virgins went and bot oil for their lamps they found the door shut when they returned and could not enter. Dr. Bulgin told a moral pathetic story relating to a mother and daughter. In one of his Kentucky meetings a young, beautiful girl belonging to a rich family was converted. She wished to unite with the Baptist church of which some of her sisters were members but the mother refused to let her do so. She determined that she should learn to dance and have a good time. At the girls request Dr. Bulgin called to talk with the mother but the mother was as adamant. Dr. Bulgin could only pray in her presence while she remained scornful and obdurate. LOS ANGELES—Decision of the state athletic commission as to whether a return would be made to the boxing judge system in preference to the referee plan was to be announced tonight, following a meeting of the commissioners here today. Among applicants for permits to conduct boxing shows received by the commission today was that of Tom McCarey who plans a $100,000 arena at Florence, Los Angeles suburb. Reports of a bitter fight raging among the field for a Dempsey Wills match only. In addition to deciding upon a tentative date and site, Rickard also has decided that Dempsey and Gibbons will box at night and that both must be on the ground at least a month before the actual proceedings. He says he has the champion's assurance, given thru his man of business, Jack Kearn that all will be per Mr. Rickey's wishes. 14 TEAMS ARE TIED CHICAGO, Feb. 9.—The 14 teams which started the six-day bike grind were tied at the end of the seventh hour today, having covered 168 miles, 8 laps. During the early morning sprints the team of Walthour and McNamara came near lapping the field, but a spill stopped their efforts. The team of Belloni and De Graves led in the point table with a total of 43. DePALMA WINNER Heading Frank Lockhart after the latter had passed him, Ralph DePalma won the 50-lap feature race at the Juarez track, El Paso, yesterday in 40 minutes and 50 seconds. Lockhart's machine suffered a broken axle, but he was not hurt. The New York Giants today announced the signing of James Tunney, Hollycross College pitcher. NEW YORK—Jole Ray's defi to Paavo Nurmi for a meeting at one mile may be answered at the New York A.C. games next Saturday night, it was indicated today. Nurmu either will enter the Hunter quarter-mile, one of the classic races of the indoor season, or a two-mile special in an attempt to further lower Ray's former record for that distance. LOS ANGELES—Jimmy Welsh young outfielder sold by Wade Kilferer of the Seattle Club to the Boston Braves for $35,000 and three players, is on his way to Los Angeles today to confer with Kilferer in the hopes he will be able to obtain some of the purchase money. Welch has not signed his Boston contract, and the deal may fall through. LOS ANGELES—Decision of the state athletic commission as to whether a return would be made to the boxing judge system in preference to the referee plan was to be announced tonight, following a meeting of the commissioners here today.

He says he has the champion's assurance, given thru his man of business, Jack Kearn that all will be per Mr. Rickey's wishes. Next Tuesday evening at Doyle's Vernon arena the fight fans will have a chance to witness a champ in action. Kid Kaplin, featherweight champ, is head-lining in the first 12-round no-decision bout to be pulled off under the new law. Bud Riddley, the featherweight champ of the coast, will furnish the opposition to Mr. Kaplin. The eastern champ is a rugged little fellow who really fights. He has paid little or no attention to the selence of boxing, but keeps so many flists in the air that he needs no defense. Joe Benjamin, the pretty boy so friendly with Jack Dempsey, has the championship bee buzzing under his hat. Since Benny Leonard retired there are seads of lightweight claims claiming the crown. Joe happens to be the latest member of that tribe. Joe might have the native ability to be the champion, but he allows the bright lights to detract from his ability. He has about most violent case of swell head that it has been our misfortune to observe. Joe is a keen boxer and packs a very nasty wallop. He has plenty of heart and all of that how is a fellow going to do his best when he is thinking of his appearance? Joe thinks that he is so good that he never gets into real condition. Old Phil Salvadore can give Mr. Benjamin all the championship bout that is necessary. Speaking of Salvadore, he gave Sammy Mandell a neat four-round facing not so long ago, and now they are proclaiming Sammy King. Phil better dust off the old punching bag, grab an extra pair of sox and beat it for New York. He might entice Sammy into the ring again and maybe it might become King Phil instead of King Sam. COLLEEN MOORE IN GREAT DRAMA Colleen Moore has been called "living library" of Hollywood because she has produced screen versions of so many popular novels. Her latest picture "So Big," is an adaptation from Edna Ferrier's seller "to be shown." In one of his Kentucky meetings a young, beautiful girl belonging to a rich family was converted. She wished to unite with the Baptist church of which some of her sisters were members but the mother refused to let her do so. She determined that she should learn to dance and have a good time. At the girls request Dr. Bulgin called to talk with the mother but the mother was as adamant. Dr. Bulgin could only pray in her presence while she remained scornful and obdurate. Three years later the Doctor was in the beginning of another meeting in Kentucky not many miles from the home of this mother and young lady. A phone call to the mother requested the Doctor to come to her home to preach the funeral sermon over the dead daughter. At the grave the mother ordered the coffin opened and the Doctor beheld the daughter with a little prematurely born child on her arm. The mother, heartbroken and repentant took all the blame of the ruin and death of her daughter. The mother sought and found pardon of God under the Doctor's direction. Then she made the Doctor promise he would preach to mothers and tell this sad story wherever he should go. And, said the Doctor, I am doing it. There were 34 persons to come forward and confess Christ during the day. JOHNSON TO PITCH FOR WASHINGTON RENO, Feb. 9.—Walter Johnson announced here today that he will pitch for the Washington Senators next season. The announcement of the veteran twirler, hero of the last world series, puts an end to the uncertainty which has existed over his status due to his efforts to purchase a Pacific Coast League team. Johnson it was learned had definitely abandoned his plans to become a magnate following failure of his efforts to buy Oakland and Vernon and will forward his signed contract within a few days to the Washington club. He denied he was to receive $20,000 a year and refused to say whether he would sign for more than one year. Johnson will go to Hot Springs, Ark., for preliminary training before joining the Senators in Florida. He is in excellent condition. Mrs. Frank B. Kellogg is shown above in the gown she wore when she was presented at the Court of St. James. Her husband, now Ambassador to Great Britain, was nominated by President Coolidge to succeed Secretary Hughes when he retires March 4. COLLEEN MOORE IN GREAT DRAMA Colleen Moore has been called the "living library" of Hollywood because she has produced screen versions of so many popular novels. Her latest picture "So Big," is an adaptation from Edna Ferber's "Best Seller," to be shown at the Calif. Theater today and Tuesday. Prior to this she produced "Flaming Youth," "The Sky Pilot," "The Lotus Eater," "The Huntress" and numerous others. In "So Big' Miss Moore is declared to have done her best screen work. The story, based on life in the old Dutch settlement near Chicago in the latter part of the past century, gets her away from the frivolous flapper roles with which she has been associated. It presents her as the wife of a stolid Dutch farmer, toiling amidst the cabbages and radishes of a truck garden. A baby son is all that makes her life worth while, and, as she tolls, she visualizes the time when he will become "so-o-o big" in this world of affairs. It is a surprising role for young Miss Moore, and it grows more surprising as, with passage of years, she is seen slowly transforming into a middle-aged woman. Nothing could be so remote from the gay and giddy flapper of yore. The story permits the mother to all but realize her life's ambition. Her baby, now a man, stands at the portals of fame as an architect. But as he does so a woman enters his life—a married woman of wealth who would drag him into diagrace and failure through an elopement. It is then Miss Moore, rushing to the rescue of her baby-man, facing his would-be spooler and finally dragging him back to the pathway of her ambitions, reaches the pinnacle of emotional heights. Pre-view critics of the film say nothing like it has ever been screened. A Felix Cat Cartoon and the latest animated newspaper "International News" completes a busy good program. STOCKS INCLINED TO BE ERRATIC NEW YORK, Feb. 9.—Outside of a few of the high priced industrial stocks, the sugars and some of the motors, the movement of prices was somewhat erratic today. The failure of the oil stocks to carry thru was a disappointment, tho this was due largely to the uneasiness caused by the summoning of oil leaders to Washington to explain the recent sharp advances in gasoline prices. The sensational market developments were furnished by the high priced leaders in the industrial list. Castiron Pipe jumped to 208 shortly after noon hour, a gain of 13 points for the day. The stock was unusually active and in the financial district it was rumored that the companys' plan for the distribution of a part of its huge profits would soon be announced. American Can also pushed forward to the highest position on record, selling above 170 on heavy trading shortly after the noon hour. National Lead at 161½ was a strong spot, in the industrial list. Special strength was displayed in the tobacco, sugar and some of the motor stocks. Cuban American sugars continued the advance inaugurated last week. Cuban American advancing to 32½ and Cuban American, pfd., to 62, the highest for the year. American Sugar Refining, which is slated for dividend later in the year, recovered nearly four points and sold at 66%. Tobacco Products, American Tobacco and American Sumatra featured the tobacco stocks, while Maxwell "A" and "B". Mack Trucks and Studebaker led a moderate rally in the motors in the course of which Maxwell "A" gained about two points. Outside of these stocks the market was featureless.
