NIGHT, 6th 1 T S/ma Howe LrEstiva (23] NEW RIDE-ON A S , A O 5S¢, 35¢, S.Oc‘ le at Crowell’s Night. 12 1 ‘l! ¢ e EXCITING SCENES IN HOWE'S TRAVEL FILMS Lyman H. Howe's Travel Festival which comes to the Lyceum on Sun- day night next is enjoyed as much by men and women who have been on the long trails leading to the great scenes in the wide, widé world, as it is by stay-at-homes. Those who have traveled much enjoy Mr. Howe's reproductions because of their ab- ‘solute fidelity and the reminscences they awaken. Indeed the extraordin- ary merits of this exhibition.are now firm]y established that it seems need- jess to urge anyone to attend. By the sheer force of its excellence . it has advertised itself so well that a crowded house is.a foregone conclu- sion. The new program has its intense moments such as are imparted by a ride on a runaway train, which in it- self is execiting enough, but the thrills are intensified and made more thrill- ing by means of those realistic’ ‘‘ef- fects” which always distinguish Howe's from all others. Then also there are some spectacular moments experienced *during a trip down into the crater of Vesuvius—to the very edge of the vast cauldron of boiling lava. Some of the mysteries of Na- turé’s handiwork are revealed in a sceries showing the growth of plants and the development of flowers from bud to 'blossom. ‘The manifestations of science and chesistry are also shown in a film depicting the electro~ lysis of metals and the fantastic formations created by 6 the precess. Real travel experiencés are provided by a trip to. ever enchanting Venice during which Howe . travelers will slide up and down the eanals &nd see the quaint eity under the wizardry of superb color éffects at sunse and by moonlight. A rallroad ‘ride through Greece, bird studies in the colors of nature, and entirely new animated cartoons are some of the other fea- tures. Seat sale will open at Cro- well’s Drug store, Thursday night. CHAPLIN'S DOUBLE’ AT KEENEY'S FRIDAY Harry Ingalls, a young vaudeville entertainer, who is steadily rising to fame as the double of Charlie Chap- lin, the famous motion picture com- edian, has made a contract to appear at Keeney's as a special attraction Priday afternoon and mnight. Ingalls ‘bears such a close réesemblance, phy- sically, to the great screen artist that it is difficult to tell the two apart. He has acquired many of the eccentric movements of the comedian and he glves a most remarkable impersona- tion of him. TFriday night he will play a part in “The Naughty Flirt,” a sketch written along lines suggest- ed in the €haplin comedies. He will be assisted by Miss Alice Upson, a singing comedienne of ability. Ingalls has agreed to give his impersonation on Main sreet at 12 and 6 o’clock Fri- day. In other cities which he has given the street exhibition thought they recognized in him their “movie” favorite in real life. The act [is expected to prove a big drawing card Friday. Besides this novelty the manage- ment offers ‘“The’ Bagle’s Nest” Lu- bin’s great six reel motion picture drama, as a special attraction for Fri- day night. This picture will also be shown Thursday, afternoon and even- ing. It is the first of a series of big dramas, acted for the ‘‘movies” by Gelebrated people, which < will be shown at Keneys during the. summer. A new one will be given each week. These attractions will be given in addition to the regular program. There will be no increase in the admission price. It will mean- a longer and better show with no ad- ditional expense to the patrons. “Hanky Panky,” the offering of the Fields Brothers Stock.company, con- tinues extremely popular with the playgoers. It is a lively comedy with some bright music punctuating the dfalogue. This week’s show gives big opportunities to Harry Jackson, the popilar Hebrew comedian, who is as- sociated with the Fields. Harry does ‘| some splendid character delineating and his witticisms keep the audience in a state bordering on hysteria dur- nig a major part of the act. The Fields are as good as ever and their otHer assocdiates help to make things merry. Other acts on this week’s bill are: Josephine May, high wire artist; Eve. 10, 20, 30, 50c. ‘hot pudding success- around the hot basin a has been wrung out in .and leave for a few min- making the attempt.

Jacoby, the distinguished { neurologist, is that the suffers even more than the individual himself if he is not properly employed in doing congenjal work. At first glance there may not seem to be much connection between the possible ultimate abolition of poverty and the fact that a person with a genius for drawing human figures is compelled instead to draw up math- | ematiéal accounts for which he has as little liking as ability; or contrari- wise, that the natural born iightning caleulator is candemned to hirness his | talent to the exercise of counting mile. stones on a country road. However, muéh as they differ regarding the question generally, the autherities cor- sulted agree that there is a long dis- tance link binding them. Alsa that when tae poet wroté from the depths of his own unhappy state “‘from ig- norance our comfort flows, the only wretched arc the wise” he wvas prob- ably suffering from émotion:zl nausea rather than an overdose of wisdon:: and that prior statements made some thousands of years age placing the price of wisdom above rubies and that “wisdom is the principal thing, there | tare get wisdom and with all thy get- ting get _understandlng‘ kear the gen uine hallmark of truth and philos- community He Should Go.” When we see what is being done f.r the children of today, the wonder is that we ever grew up. It is now Dbelleved that the only chance for n child is to train him in the way he should go-—mentally, morally and physically—and if that training be too lcng delayed it can never be made geood. There isn't much hope of reform after the character becomes “get” in its tendéncies, and that occurs quite Learly in life, “We can ncw determiné with almost mathematical certainty the cegree.of s child's intelligence and its power of understanding,” said Dr. George W. Jacoby, ‘“‘alse its brain exhaustibility and specific endowment—so6 any plan of training is no -lenger vogue, but | absolutely definite.” g Unfold Freely and Independently. “How do vou go about it? Well, the ehief thing is to let a child’s in- dividuality unfold freely and indepen- dently. It should be accurately ob- served but never suppressed. It 1s tire future happiness of a child de- pends tipon the successful bringing out of its capabilities, for upen that rests the choice of its life work. “A mistake in this cholce destroys all the real joy -of living—it almost means a lost life. To help us through the inevitable troubles and sandnesses of life and give us courage to go on, one must work, and more than that | —have compensation for it. “I do not mean only material gain, but the inward satisfaction that eén- genial work brings with it, and this can only be had when a person fol- Jows the pursult adapted to his in- nefmost desires. = That is why the choicé of a life pursuit is of such su- preme importance, A Benéfit to the World. “But greater even than to the man himself is its significance to the world at large. Tt is in this way: The community and state being made up of individual existences, if many are discontended it is/easy to see how the whole substructure of governmeént be- comes undermined, and there is little of order and security left. More- over, 2 man will neglect interests that are repugnant and turn to outside dis- tractions for consolation. In that way he may find some small measure of satisfaction for himself, but there is nene for. the community welfare. “Our entire civilization depends upon a provigion of nature which dis. tributés gifts and talents in the most varying manner. “This has a direct bearing on the Jessening of poverty, inasmuch as the pérson well 'fitted vocationally is in- finitely happier and therefore success- ful.” Approves Sex Hygiene. When asked if he believed that chil- dren should be instructed in sex hy- giene, the dector replied strongly in the affirmative, “Ppactically every {1l that befalls mankind may be traced to ignorance or disregard of the laws of nature.

The character is not really formed un- il the person has come in contact with the warld and has had experience of life, but the tendency is pretty well iset’ by the age of fifteen. 1 believe that acquired characteristics can- be transmitted; and not only do the chil- dren inherit these characteristics, but seeing them in their parents intensi- fies them; therefore environment and training are of the gréatest impor- tance.” . Dr. Josephine Baker says the most impressionable years both physically rhnd mentally are up to the fifteenth year. “What do you think of the advis. abllity of teaching children sex hy- giene?” Dr. Baker was asked. Healhy Avenues to Pathology. “I pelieve decidedly that it should be taught, but .is is of paramount im- portance by whom and how. There have been great mistakes made in the method of imparting this knowledee, Far instance, one does not study medi- | cine by looking at cancers, but first learns the healthy construction of anatomy and the organs. In the same way one should net dwell on-the ‘social evil’ in teaching sex hygiene. Tt should be treated simply and natur- | ally. 1 have seen the best results from this manner of teaching. The children are not much interested, but there is no morbid curiosity then. When the parents are qualified to do so, they are asuredly the best instruc- tors, otherwise a friend or teacher who understands should be called upon. 1 quite agree with Ellen is not bialogical—it is spiritual.” “One helps toward the abolition of Rentschiers’ Park, WEEK_GOM.

High 'pn\'erty is more schooling,” said Mrs. Mary Simkowiteh, “and a more ex- tended period than is usual now. 1 should like ta see the vears of study reach to the twenty-first vear for all. As for other matters, give children in- tellectual training and so keep their minds from material thoughts.

It's the mania to be on a committee, and (o be there not for the sake of the good work you can do, the help you ean render your fellow men and women, but just for the Jove of impprtance and power, for the pride of seeing your name in reports and in the news- papers.
