Chaplin ap- pears in/a two-part comedy that is ex- tremely funny. It made » most favor- ‘shl. impression last evening ang the ‘first nighters” were glmost con- Vulsed with laughter while the eccen- tric 'gloom dispeller capered around in ‘his inimitable manner. Chaplin is the real wonder of the reel world and the comedies in which he appears are ' big drawing cards. Miss Clark's Photo-play is a wonderful drama. It A8 cleverly acted and 1s interesting irom start to finish, The Honey Boy Minstrel trio get top position on the vaudevills bill They have a singing specialty that is very attractive. ‘Their songs are catohy and up-to-date and éach num- ber finds favor. Gaftney and Dale have a musical novelty that pleases and Hill and Hall do.some singing, dancing and yodling, displaying skill at each. They have some good rag numbers and a brand of comedy that creates many laughs. ‘William H. Crane in “David Harum” will be the special feature of the Keenyescope ‘program tomorrow and Thursday. This popular New England play is expected to attract capacity audiences, = There is considerable In- terest in the announcement that Fran- cis X. Bushman will be seen at the theater Friday and Saturday in “The Slim Princess.” This is probably this week's biggest offering.

The bright, unforced comedy of “The Heir to the Hoorah” makos this week's offering of the Poli Play- ers a drawing card while the manner in which the four-act piece is pro- duced by the popular stock company makes it a doubly agreeable attrac- tlon. It is not a heavy play, even tor a comedy, but it is very spontaneous and its lines ripple pleasantly. Most of the fun s achieved by taking some of the characters and transplanting them from a rough, unvarnished en- vironment into surroundings where they iry to measure up to the social standard. It is old stage business but | when it is well done it is funny and the Poli Players do it exceedingly well in their present bill. It comes out strong in the second act where several of the characters penetrate for the first time the mysteries of full dress attire. Probably no one has ever yot worn evenink dress for the first time and sueceeded in remaining uncon- scious of it. The plot is a simple one with! a marital misunderstanding as a basis with everything righting itself in the ninth inning. Moving pictures are shown of “Tha Story of a Kiss.” Dudley Ayres and Miss Skirvin pose in a series of oscu- : atolry contortions which include the French kiss, the Sappho - kiss and other kisses which bear the expert brand. The good old fashioned kiss ix completely overlooked. Perhars the new version is better but the good old fashioned Kiss has stood the test of time, we know more, about it and we resent. the imputation that ‘“The Story of a Kiss’’ can be told with the good old fashioned kiss omitted. $2,500 FIRE AT PUTNAM, Putnam, July 13.—Fire was dis- covered just before midnight in the store of the Putnam Clothing com- pany, owned by Harry Levinson of Boston, on the second floor of the Central block, whidh is in the heart.of the busiress section. .

You can’t put city people into the country as’it is and as they are; city people to be transposed into country life must be either mentally very resourceful or quite stupid, for the loneliness brings quite too much te bear upon the aver- age city person. So why not live in { villages and go out to work, as people the world, the'people who love the richest farm land in the world in our | great west, and with the unemploy- | the do abroad in France and Germany and Italy? Large acreage is not necessary with intensive agriculture and the various means of rapid transportation now so common. The village would supply the features that make city life attractive, schools, amusements, recre- ation, churches, co-operatve banking, group responsibility. Work in Group. “Working in a group, too, makes competition with the bonanza farmer easier. The little farmer working, alone cannot compete with the man’ who puts thousands of dollars into his farming business, has complete equip- ment and conducts his farm on a giant scale. But twenty little farmers can together buy a freight car or whatever they need, and thus not be appalled by the large plan of their compétitor.” When asked whether the league would establish these colonies, Miss Lund replied that the organization was an organizing, educative and informa- tive body. % “If you want to direct people you must never sell them anything,” she said with a wise little smile, ‘“‘But we have plenty to do in the mere direct- | rever be washed with watet. i move the dust, wipe over with a soft i t'oor polish. | | ing.

This young girl married, as young girls often do, and by-and-by thers Were bables, as theré sometimes are even in these days. And she loved thé babies and laid her delicate prettiness on the altar of their héalth and gave ler whole life to them, and in about the time it takes to tell it (so it seemed to her) they began to grow up. ping on Someone's Part, Whose? Now two of them were daughters with all the delicate prettiness of their mother and all her old longing for pretty things. Unfortunately, means in this little family were limited and pretty clothes meant infinite contriving and planning and scrimping on someone's part—you may guess whose. It was a very long time between new gowne for the little mother. And when they did come they were plain, sensible things, designed to wear and not get out of style rather than to be becoming. Sometimes the little moher used to look in the glass and imagine herself in a pretty, stylish gown and wonder if it wouldn’t bring back some of the old prettiness and wish the girls——. And theéen she would be ashamed of the half thought and would tell herself that she would rather have their love and gratitude than all the pretty clothes in the world. And did the girls appreciate her sacrifice? Well, they didn't remem- ber to tell her so, but she felt that from their own love of pretty things they must realie what it meant to go without them and ehe lald the omis- sion to the thoughtlessness of youth. A Creation of Silver and Rose. And then one day she had an old school ¢hum visiting her, a woman who had never married, who looked five years younger, and from whosé age a becoming gown took away five years more. Just as the meother came down the stairs the girls were admiring their visitor's gown, a creation of silver grey and rose. “I think your mother yould look dear in something like that,” sald the visitor. . “Mother,” laughed one of the girls; “I ean’t imagine it.” “Mother is very plain in her tastes,” explained the other. care for things like that.” “She doesn’t care for things like that!” They Didn’t Realize.

The wife who says she'd rather stay home with the childrén while the husband goes sailing, the father who decided a pipe is better for him than cigars, the mother who develops a taste for plain sensible things—how often the perfection of their sacrifice makes it unappreciated.
