LY PASTEUR- ED MILK RT AND SON t, Near Stanley. . . connection e i Loyal Champion of Old Fashioneu Virtue in a New Fash- joned Form Declares, True Wedlock Is the One Great Fruit of Freedom for Women. The varietiest, the person who in his cry for freedom flits Trom love to love in unhampered liberty, is not acting upon racial instinct; he is merely playing on the side, and, &s a link in the great chain, 2s a step into the next generation, is not contribu- tive., This is according to Edgar Lee Mas- ters, the poet Who shocked and sur- prised so many people in his ‘“‘Spoon River Anthology’—the poet whom Ii found to be a loyal champion of old- fashioned virtue in a new-fashioned' form. Reassuring Radicalism. One is afraid of radica:s sometimes. But Mr, Masters in his radicalism is reassuring. We talked about mar- riage. “Now, 1 can think of more wonder- ful things than marriage, but I can- not think of anything more practica- ble and at the same time more beauti- ful than marriage. Varietism wen’t work for the achievement of the race, but marriage will. “The only excuse for legal marriage that we have now is economic,” ‘he said, quietly. “Women can’t take care of themselves and thelr children, and men have to. Marriage solves these questions of inheritance, of financial responsibility, of protection. Now, when women are economically inde- pendent we may have a new, finer, freer kind of marriage. It will not be based upon the helplessness of women, but upon their helpfulness. It will be a true communion of spirit and of in- terest, a complete sympathy of mind and soul. It will not need external bonds to holq it. “A means of bringing this about will be through sharing labor in common. In my life I have seen one perfect roarriage, that of my old grandmother and grandfather. And I attribute it, largely to their mutuar work. They gardened together, they ran the farm together, and they lived and loved as few people do. The pertect marriage is almost an impossibility, you know. The Procession of the Generations. ““There’s something indestructible, semething inviolable, about the great stream of life. It's the one impelling force that brings inevitable results. “That’s immortality—the projection of self into generations and generations and generations—the only tangible immortality there is. And so, mar- ringe, true, spiritual marriage, which founds itself upon this fundamental racial instinet, is to be hoped for. “That people who love irregularly are unfair to their children is not to be questioned. I myself would-.never think of bringing a child into' the| News for Perfect Marriage Almost Impossibility, Says Author of “Spoon River Anthology” e e Wworld to go through the hell that a child born irregularly must suffer. “There is the further matter, too, of allowing the state to have a voice in saying whether two peopie may have children. It is so much more than a | personal matter, it so affects the com- | munity and the world, that the respon- sibility of decision to marry is almost 100 much for two people to undertake.

Freedom to get out and play golf to be among men in the ousiness and professional world. Of course, it doesn’t naturally follow that woman golfer, just because she plays 501f, is going to love her husband a great deal more and make him happier than he used to be. I know some very #ood golf players who say to me of their husbands: ‘Oh, ves, Archibald is such a good fellow. Ur course, I haven’'t any more feeling for him than I have for that post yonder, but Le is good man.’ Now, that's the scrt of thing that makes me ask you How many perfect marriages have you seen?

How else could we help her unless’ we gave her money to buy opportunity? If we gave her books, she'd read and be- cme restless, and be unable to follow her new inspiration.

[ LIONEL BARRYMORE, TOMORROW AT FOX'S With two distinguished stars and a supporting cast of Broadway players, “The Flaming Sword” comes to Fox’s tcmorrow and Thursday. Jane Grey in the role of Meera, a hermit's daughter, and Lionel Barrymore as the unscrupulous suitor, lend themselves admirably to two of the most unique characters yet worked into film pro- duction. “The Flaming Sword” is a story of the rockbound coast or Maine and an island far out in the Atlantic where a hermit, who has been wronged in early life, seeks solace an. quiet. For local color the producing company with a coterie of sixty-five plavers adjourned to Portland, Maine, where they en- saged a steamer and along the unin- habited portions of the coast took the picture in the actual locations de- scribed by the author. Jane Grey re- cently closed a long run in the big success: “Kick In,” and Lionel Barry- niore will be remembered by the part in “The Romance of Elaine,”” which will also be shown tomorrow and Thursday. Martha Hedman and John Hines will be seen for the last time tonight in “The Cub,” a comedy drama in five acts.. The comedy is clean and whole- some. Mr. Hines injects the spirit of good cheer into his work. Miss Hed- wan, the Swedish star is seen at her best, charming, sweet, and delightful. Anita Stewart and Earle Williams are seen in the third chapter of “The God- des,” while the Pathe News and a g0od comedy augment the program to the usual two hour performance of Ligh class features. It is an offering that should not be missed. TO ADDRESS MACHINISTS. Hartford, Aug. 10.—Vice President J. J.

The West of the days of cow punchers and horse thieves, while rapidly passing away in actuality, stil] survives on the stage and seems to be one of the surest agents to attract big crowds. It is hardly necessary to say that the Poli Players are well suited to their parts. The story of “In Wyoming” con- cerns the running down of a bunci of horse and cattle thieves, headed by a competent and very villainous villian, and interwoven with are nu- merous love affairs in some really humorous comedy. Needless to men- tion, everything comes out right in the end, leaving the heroes and hero- ines happy and the villian properly subjugated. “AN ALIEN,” ' DRAMA OF POWER To judge by the enthusiasm of the many thousand who witnessed the in- numerable performances of “The Sign of the Rose” at the Astor theater, New York, during its lengthy engagement {to move thousands more to tears and smiles. The photo-play has enough merit to provide excellent entertain- ment for an entire evening. Th production is what might be called a ‘super-feature” in that it is in nine acts, has an exceptionally good story, in this case one of great human interest and is acted and produced with more than usual care. George Bebans work in Italian characrerizations has won for him a unique position as an actor. In his gestures, his walk and his facial expression he succeeds wonder- fully in portraying the Italian labor- er. more than mechanical perfection, for sincerity, ympathy and perception are qual s which makes his im- personation of Pietro thoroughly ad- mirable. The story of “The Rose” is well known, has been one of the most famous vaudeville successes in this country. Pietro’s devotion to his daughter, his kindliness and simplicity, and his compléte innocerce when accussed of crime have touched the hearts of thousands. The photo-play is filled with incidents which have a delicate humor tinged with sadness. Espec- ially appealing is Pietro's «tory of the night before Christmas and Mr. Beban’'s skill is depicting the simple Italian’s perplexity as to how to ac- Sign of the splendidly | But Mr. Beban's work is marked | as the playlet ; | rower flounce can be used or omitted as | each individual may like, also, there are | there, this remarkable play has taken ! a new lease on life and will continue - ' SAVE THE COUPONS Packed with Each Pound of WEDGWOOD Creamery Butter —they’re valuable.
