Miss Pickford is perfectly at| home in this story of New York's . tenement district and the charac- terization of little ‘Annie Reooney fits her as the proverbial glove. She takes the role of a'twelve- year-old daughter of a popular po- liceman, and leads dirty-faced youngsters in rough and tumble battles against a rival 'gang, and has a secret infatuation | strapping big: for Joe Kelly, a truck driver, and pal of her broth- er, Tim Rooney.

Probably the great est way in which we can helf is by developing and spreading these qualities of honor, courage, schol- arship, leadership and service, “I shall now speak to you for a few moments on the subject of honor, that being the first of the five qualities which 1 called to your attention a little while ago. Mr. Webster defines honor as be- ing that which rightfully attracts esteem, respect and consideration, as dignity, courage, fidelity, up- rightness, trustworthiness, and es- pecially excellence of character. “From experience we know that honor is strength to do the right thing when it is easier to do the wrong. It is holding steadfastly to the highest standards of conduct which you knew. It is doing what your conscience tells you to do, disregarding all temptations. It is the telling of the truth under all conditions, the practice of clean speech and the devotion to duty regardless of all distractions.
