BIG PHOTO DRAMAS TONIGHT'S LEADERS “The Carpet of Bagdad,.. Harold MacGrath’s masterpiece in- picturized form, and “Mistree Nell,” a six reel photo-play with Mary Pickford, the highest salaried motion picturé artist in the wprld, in the title role, will be a double feature of the “movie” pro- gram at Keeney's tonight. With these two big attractions’for leaders the program should make a special ap- peal to theater-goers and should draw a capacity house. g The MacGrath picture is a Selis- Red Seal play in five parts. It s like a page torn from ‘“The Arabian Nights”” and one of the most thrjli- ing romances ever produced beforu the camera. It is descriptive of the adventures of Americans who steal a sacred carpet from an Egyptienne temple. The scenes are laid in Cairo and New York. Great attention was paid to detail in producing this pieco and the results are remarkable. “Mistress Nell” was shown last night before a large audience. it was greatly enjoyed and judgng from the comment about the city today, his scereen drama in itself will draw a large audience to the theater to- | night.

The children’s bureau of the de- partment of labor issued vesterday a I report on the administration of the child labor certificate system in the | state of Connecticut. This is the first | of a series of studies to show how the i]aws to protect working children actually do so in practice. books, the public often assumes that its duty is ended. this inguiry assumes that such a law is only a beginning in the task of pro- tecting children from overwork and greater task is to see that the law is carried’ out. According to the U. 8. census of 1810, over 550,000 of our pation’s children from ten to fifteen vears old were at work in factories, shops, and other non-agricultural positions. At that age the boys and girls who leave school to go to work do not leave it for a life of luxury. For the most part family income. By what legal ma- chinery are these children protected? Protect Children at Work., Child labor laws are designed to protect children at work, and in such laws the employment certificate, or the child’s working card, to their enforcement. card is the child’s identification card. It shows that he is entitled to work, and it furnishes a record of eovery child at work and therefore subject to the law. bureau is studying the employmeént certificate systems to .learn how far the laws whieh have been made to protect working children “actually do so0. To whom does the child apply ‘for his working papers? If the certifi- cate’ states that he can read and write “simple sentences,” how well must he read, how well must he write, and who is to judge what is a “sim- ple” sentence? How does he prove that he is of legal age to work? Whose property is the working card? Maple Hill Miss Clara Darling has returned from a two week visit with friends in Portchester, N. Y. Mrs. C.

The next and by far the | is the key The working For this reason the children’s and | party Friday afternoon at her home | | to the membera of the New Britain | Are working papers given a child re- gardless of the prospect of employ- ment? If so, what is done to keep {aline on those who do and those who @0 not get work? Can a working card be used to thwart truant officers? Do the working papers issued tally with | the children actually at work? These are some of the questions that the children’s bureau studies are de- | signed to answer. In Connecticut a child cannot go to work until he is fourteen years old, | jand until sixteen cannot work unless | he has an employment certificate. No | child can get a certificate and stay out of school unless he has a job. If | he quits work his employer must no- | tify the state board of education, and | before he can go to work again per- manently he must secure a fresh cer- tificate. The most striking feature of the i Connecticut system of issuing work- {ing papers is that the state board of | education, and bef he can go to work again permanently he must se- cure a fresh certificate. The most striking feature of the Connecticut system of issning work- ing papers is that the state board of education controls its enforcement and dovetails-the working of the com- | pulsory education law with the child labor law.

Undertaken in Other States. Studies similar to the one in Con- necticut are being undertaken in other | states, and it is believed that by dis- covering the strong and weak fea- tures of various systems in use, some standard will be reached of the best methods for protecting children at work.

How often we know how people feel without their télling us’ And How Often We Are Wrong! And how often we are wrong! Sometimes our sense of disapproval on the part 6f someone sise is only the reflection of our own uncertainty as to whether what we ars doing I the right thing, Again, it really has some foundation in past experience, but may ot be true in the present case. And yet again, it may be a mere figment of the imagination. “I Know He Dislikes Me.” The person who is always feeling that someone else dislikes him or her (usyally the latter) is another member of the class who know what ped- ple think without being told, and half the time know altogether wi Many a time the people she thniks dislike her do not think about hl:‘ enough to like or dislike. It is a sign of an exaggerated ego to flatter your- self that people dislike you just as much as that they like you. Another way in which we decide for people what they think without giving them a chance to speak for themeelves is in holding mental ar ments in which we supply the answers of our ‘opponent. Frequently we make him say much more unreasonable and disagreeable things than le actually would, and then feel a sense of resentment and irritation bassd on these things he didn't say. i Partly His Own Fault. 4 Of course we usually base the arguments on our knowledge of m op- ponent's character and our past experience of him, and so it is partly his fault if we impute unkind things to him. But people often surprise their goodness. As Margaret Deland has sald, there is only one NE more astonishing than the badness of the good and that's the of the bad.. 8o it isn’t realy fair to try to argue for anyone.

Question—8hould 1 give an fice who has just announced her engagement? ~ We have worked in the same office three years.—Letter Friend. Answer—If you want to give her a présent do so by all means. «If you don’t, there is no obligation. A gift should be a crystallization of kind- ly feeling not a tribute exacted by the conventionalities. Personally I think this multiplication of occasions for gift giving is a misfortune. Christmak. New Year's, St. Valentine’s day, Easter, birthdays, when one's friends xo abroad, are engaged, married or have a baby-—these are a few of the oc- casions which punctiious people think demand a gift.
