GEORGE ADE’S PLAY, “THE COLLEGE WIDOW,” AT GRAND TONIGHT Although George Ade’'s popular comedy, “The College Widow,” has always captivated its audiences when this charming love story is portrayed on the stage, “The College Widow”’ of the screen, as shown at the Grand tonight, will certainly fascinate the most blase. The stage has its limi- tations, but not moving pictures. “The College. Widow” is one of Lu- bin’s five-reel Liberty Bell features, which means that neirther time, tal- ent nor money is spared in present- ing the spirit of George Ade’s great college story, as well as the action and natural seeting. One going to 2 play must imagine the campus, the | football game, and the students’ cele- bration of victory, but in “The Col- lege Widow” at the Grand tonight, all of these incidents of college life are visualized, because they have been actually photographed on a col- lege campus. There is a real foot- ball game with all the thrills of end runs and field goals, and a ‘“snake dance of victory” in which more than five thousand students take part. And to cap the climax there is shown one of the most spectacular fires ever thrown upon the screen. Thrilling rescues of men and women are made from the building to the branch of a big tree in a way that makes one marvel at the possibilities of photo- play realism. ’ “The College Widow” is distinec- tively an American story and centers around the rivalry of two colleges in the middle west for football hon- ors. One of these colleges is a Pres- byterian institution, and for this rea- son its president feels that it should ADDITIONAL WANT ADS Too Late To Classity FOR SALE—Reed baby carriage; will sell cheap.

" “LANSING.” HHHKKKK KK KK KKK KKK * TALKS ON THRIFT. % HHHKKK KK KKK KKK KK (Bumps and Pleasant Odors) There 'is a certain vaudeville skit that is absurdly amusing, but ab- surdly true. It is a mock circus. One of the attractions is a patent fly catcher, and with all the pomp and ceremony of the usual circus barker the merits of this invention are ex- tolled. Attracted by the pleasant odor coming from an open door with the word ‘““welcome” overhead, the fly walks in. The surroundings are in- viting. He enjoys himself immense- 1y, and proceeds to evplore the place. Suddenly he finds himself on a cozy bilcony. Attendants are there to wait on him, cool breezes are blow- ing and refreshments are his for the taking. He rest awhile. Proceeding further he finds himself on a higher balcony, with more attractions and has another siesta. Exploring still further, he finds another open door, with another open door, with an in- with an inviting sign ovehead, ven- tures out, only to find no balcony and plunges to his death. Absurd, you say—yes. But true of many people in real life. A certain music master had in his choir a promoter. He induced the musician to invest about three hun- dred dollars in a certain chewing gum proposition that promised large re- turns. The music master doubled his money in three months and was de- lighted with the new way of getting rich quick. The fly had found a cozy balcony and liked it. Along came another proposition by the ‘same man, that promised -even bigger returns, but entailed more money. He was leading his victim to a higher balcony, and he, poor lit- tle fly, didn’t know it. The music master consulted’ his banker, who advised him to keep his profits and stay out. “You will get the speculative fever and lose in the end,” said the bank man; but the lit- tle fly knew better; he had tried one resting place and liked it, and would try another. He put practically all his savings in the new proposition, and inside of three months the pro- moter was among the missing, leav- ing a deserted office and a bale of stock certificates as his legacy who had come into his trap. The poorer but wiser music master got a bad bump and hasn’t recovered from it yet. It’s the same old story—you can't beat the game. You may think your- self very smart; have perfect faith in your man and he in himself, but beware enticing odors and pleasant balconies—they surely lead sdme- where, and that somewhere is down! For simon-pure protection, safety, sureness, worry-less-ness, you can't beat the savings banks. It invites you into no cooling hallways, on no restful balconies, makes no alluring promises of big returns, but sticks to the old and tried propostion that “twice two makes four,” and works on the theory that “‘every little ‘bit added to what you have makes Just a little bit more.” It pays you no large dividends, but the money is green, and just as surely as Fourth of July and New Year’s rolls around you get your interest. However alluring other proposi- tions may be, remember, the safe road is the sure road, and the sure road is the safe road. It may take a little longer to get there, but you are sure of where you’re going. It’s not the beginning that counts—it’s the end. The story of the fly trap is but the brilliant conception of an im- aginative mind run riot; but it is horribly true. Many a man loses a fortune as the fly in the trap ' es its life—first the pleasant invitation: the restful experiences; the desive for more pleasant experiences and, lurd onward and onward, the plunge! Humanity may have more sense than the fly, but it often acts as if it didn’t. “The Widow,” the presi- |k A - Oleary - Bemidji, Minn. ’ Closed all Day Christmas .
