It is true they have had the guid- ance of Mr. Wise even In their car- rent play, but unless they had real ability of their own the test given them for the current week would magnify their weakness instead of I!rluflns‘ their virtues well into the spotlight. It is a good p:ay and it is well acted. It is also an amu ing play and In addition there a moments when the zip of a thrill is Injected in a way to send & tremor over the audience. The dramatic story, which is well xperiences enuinely hu- left by her poverty-stricken mothe on her deathbed, to three of her old sweet- hearts for all that their love might glve her. One is a_millionaire. an- other a doctor and the third is Judge Trumbull, three worldly-wise ~old fools where youth Is concerned. Of course, the memory of their romance in their younger days predisposes their hearts to their young charge land this predisposition grows into something near akin to affection as the touch of the hand feminine be- comes more apparent in their home. But foollike, when they find the come under the notice of the police because of her assoclations and especially in view of an attack upon the life of Judge Trumbull, their { wordly wisdom asserts itself in turn- ing her adrift. And just at this point a millionaire nephew, who has keener and a better appreciation of the ! merits of a pretty girl, steps in and the way is prepared for a happy end- ing in which, of course, Sidney rises to_the peak of the high wave of joy. Edward Pollard, who plays the role of the fool millionaire, and Frank Harvey, as the doctor, are new mem- rs of the company, and at once mmand attention for excellent characterization. John Kline is the third member of the foolish trio and fills all of the spotlight permitted him by Austin Strong, the author of the pl Ada Meade js unusually good {in the part of Sidney, giving the vari- ous phases of her characterization their true value and easily winning the admiration of her audience.

COLUMBIA—“Forget-Me-Not.” An unusually strong dramatic and) pathetic picture is shown this week at Loew's Columbia Theater in “For- get-Me-Not.” It is g screen version of a story by Henry Symonds. Pre- ous to the showing of the picture Miss Helen Hiser sweetly sang “For- et-Me-Not” and was given such a response that she had to come out again and repeat the last verse. The story in the main concerns an orphan asylum with its many side- lights of sorrow and path With husband sick and penniless and rent due, a mother decides to her baby at the asylum. After ing the child in a little cot she discovers a notice that she has an| hour in which to change her mind. A big cathedral clock {s five minute: slow and in deciding to take back baby the mother loses out by J that much time. Prosperity comes later lo the mother and father and they decide to adopt a child from ylum. Her own child. crip- pled in a fire, is, without knowing it, passed by for a bright boy. The, little cripple is adopted by a dis- heartened musician who makes a wonderful violinist of her. While playing in_a concert the boy and ri, who had been sweethearts in the ‘asylum, are reunited, the mother learns the little cripple is her own child, and all ends happily. Bessie Love is one of the screen's best character actresses and _this picture play probably is the finest work of her career. Gareth Hughes fits as if molded into his part and shares honors with Miss Love. Other characters, not to forget the dog, materially in making the The added ctions comprise a beautiful picture of the Shenandoah Valley, the Pathe News and Aesop Fables in animated cartoons.

Those who appreciate the! thrills of a stormy encounter at sea and a battle between Uncle Sam's| sailors and smugglers will like it. | The story deals with the daughter | of a smuggler who died and left her | his smuggling vessel, together with a | ling house ifl a Pacific coast y. While homeward bound with contraband a United States disguised as a tramp sailor, himself away and is not discovered until well out to sea. His story of having been shipwrecked and that he | is trying to beat his way home is be- liéved by the voung shipowner, who | falls in love with him. A signal from him, when the vessel nears the Pa- cific coast, brings a_government ves- sel and results in the capture of the smuggling vessel, but it is destroyed v fire before the government men can get it into port, and the girl, with several of the smugglers, escapes. The young government officer is en- gaged to an heiress, who is kidnaped by confederates of the woman smug- gler and is carried to sea on a sail- | ing vessel. Mutiny on board deprives | the young owner of her vessel and she is locked in a wireless room, from which she manages to send.a message to shore. An Eagle boat and hydro- plane are brought into use to get the | vessel. In their efforts to capture the ! sailing vessel Uncle Sam's sailors have a hot battle with the smugglers. | Cupid, however, works overtime, and as a result the young officer who be- | trayed the smugglers is coupled with | the young woman ship captain: hile his fiancee becomes the wife of. the captdin of the American vessel that took part in the capture of the ship.

Feeding Main Problem. he main problem, of course” he s the feeding. In the city forces are at work night and day protecting the milk and the water supply. The country often ca e deadly for the young child in the summertime if the utmost precautions are not taken in sterilizing the food. For the mother who is not nursing her baby pow- derea milk 1s best on trips. “A long tour by motor often is a very good thing for the nursing mother and her baby. Sh ing else to do but nurse the baby, in getting back to nature she often is better able to care for it. At home there is so much to distract her at- tention from the job of nursing, and even though she consclentiously en- deavors to tranquilly nurse the child there are some things she is subcon- scious of rather than quietly sitting nursing the infant. This interferes with the milk, often diminishing the supply or affecting its quality.
