Why Madge Decides. “Why, William, vou could mnever | live in this!” I said. “It isn't fit for | anyone to live in.” You ought to stayin’ in now,” simply. With a quick flash of memory my mind went back to the apartment in which Dicky and T had gone to keep- ing house, and the tiny room, nothin more than a large closet, in which Katie had taken such delight, saying | it was such a ‘nice large room 'ol herself” after her experience in sleep- ing with two or three of her cousin's children. Evidently T had much to learn about the standards of living of William Trumbull and his kind. With a quick flash of pity I resolved to give the old chap the room of a home which he | craved so ardently, provided I could win Dicky's consent to the project My decision wasn't altogether altru- istic. T knew that T would feel much safer in this picturesque but decidedly lonely home if honest, faithful William Trumbull with his tremen- dous strength and his fighting bull terrier lived in the barn. “T'll speak to Mr. Graham, William,” I said finally, “and if he's willing you can come and try the place for a while, anyway. “Might jest as now, Mis' Gramic.” what he evidently imagined was an ingratiating smile, but which would have struck terror to the heart of any- one who didn’t know the real worth beneath the old chap’s twisted mus- cles. “Mr. Gramie he do whatever you like, vou know.” “Nevertheless, T will about the matter first, turned. “Come tomarrow let vou know what he says.

William Farnum, in all the bravery af the parts the public lov so well, is coming to town. In “The Heart of a Lion,” the stalwart William Fox star makes his reapp nce, bringing with him a story of absorb- ing interest and excitement. At FoxX's theater, on Sunday, “The Heart of a Lion" will begin a three days’ run. It is undoubted that all lovers of William Farnum will be un- able ta the photoplay in that length of time; but the print of the picture allotted to this territory is in such demand that no longer engs ment can be played. “The Heart of a Lion™ from a novel Ralph Connor called “The Docto: Mr. Connor. whos real name is Charles W. Gordon, is now a major in the Canadian High- landers. “The Doctor” is one of his| best known and most popular works, as are also “Black Rock” and “The Man from Glengarry.’ The story of this magnificent pic- ture revolves about .two brothers- Barney Kemper (Mr. Farnum) and Dick (William Courteigh, Jr.) Dick is a worthl rt of vouth who does not awaken to a realization of his own shiftlessness until Barney manl, see is taken by catches him | | seating accommodations for | per { moons | the | costume. | | of | | tical in composition and diff “'“QTHE HEART Of.

Whenever tales of Wrongs com- mitted by the Germans during their initial drive through Belgium and into France until stopped by Joffre at the Marne drifted back to this country, as they did in 1914, they were re- ceived with a considerable degree of scepticism. No civilized people such s the Germans could do such things, the popular verdict declared. The sanctity of a woman would never be trampled so such a degree, nor would lust of destruction overcome a peo- ple like the Germans were said to have been. But now, all that has changed. America is in the war, and we are ready to believe anything of our ene- mies. When we realize that cap- throats cut is it not just as easy to believe that those same Germans or their fellow-countrymen would com- mit robbery, rape, or any other crime on unprepared Belgium and France? We are forced now to realize the sort Belgium and France did suffer in those early days. No clearer concep- tion of the incidents of 1814 can be secured than through this picture, ac- claimed the greatest of this kind. Miss Pickford is seen at her best, the story is gripping, wonderful, startling; nic effects are marvelously execut- that makes us think. is all Today anyone who has not yet deen it ow tured American boys have had their home, to fight the single-handed home to an empty inglorious, miserable | fight with poverty (as so many women toward move- | telephone or have to do) and to carry about all the time in my heart the black fear. Did you ever have a doctor say to g you that one dearly_beloved to you would perhaps be oit of danger in a And did you think “How can it thxoush that week to know he is safe?’ Well, think of the months of waiting Which these women face. Did you ever dread the rings of th the coming of the post- man? And they must live with that dread all the time, One Way to Do Your Sha Of course, I don't want you to for-"\ get the soldier but I want you to remember his wife and family. Look about you to see if there are any »s of privation on account of the war in your neighborhood. Go out of your way to bring diversion and cheer to those who are not in material want.
