' The feature picture at the Breed theater for today and the two days following is entitled The Fire Chief’s Daughter, and is said to be the most realistic drama of modern times. The situations are thrilling and wonder- fully real The fire department of a great city was enlisted for the produc- tion, and the hazardous life of a fire- man is vividly portrayed in this won- derful film story The fire chief has a _handsome daughter, whom he is desirous of Baving marry into a wealth § but the girl has alread heart and hand to a young and brave fire laddie. This enrages the father, and he refuses to recognize the mar- riage and turns his back on_the young pair. Now the unexpected happens and the new son is put to the test an proves his worth. The fire chief’s res- s@ence burns and he and his wif saved by the heroism and self sacrifice af the boy whom they have despised. Reconcil and complete- happiness preva A po a from the Biograph entitled The Purgation and of a young man’s company is is a beautiful story ing from environments to a lofty social tion, through his own efforts. 3 Miss Helen Hampton will appear in 2 new and selected song programme of ongs. Miss ate ston theaters, w i reputation for her wor This is Awful. W. Comstock of letter to members of the democ ~ state committee, liber- from his gifted pen the following halls of legislation been surrcunded by powerful lob- sts.” There is a gigantic, long-bearded king —according to old French tradition— who sits asleep at a_great table be- neath a mountain, with his rriors about him, waiting the hour of France's direst need, to rise and restore her to p2ace and power. The king to whom legend credits tt fBousand year slumber was Charl magne, emperor the Franks, who snatched France from barbarism and ralsed it to almost the eminence for- merly held by ancient Rome. How does history repeat it In the hour, of Connecticut's peril from the lobby there has awoke from peace- b4 slumber a statesman who knows a lobbrist when he seas one, knows the of legislatien, for he has been knows how 'the “surrounding” act_is done, for he has helped to do it. History tells us that Charlemagne g:movered that the Saxons were heath- 1f. and set out to convert them, carry- the the Bible In one sword in the other. Obviously Charlie Comstock has dis- ecovered that Connecticut lobbyists are very dangerous and very wicked. Dis- covery has resulted in action and it is fitting that the crusader be one who can carry a post graduate diploma in one hand and a message of warning in the other. Jobn B. Gough was the most succ ful temperance worker this country has ever known, because he had been shere himself. He used to say that he dared not pass a saloon because he feared the smell of the place would lure Rim in, but as long as he kept the ecent from his mostrils and talked he was all righ Success to the efforts of our modern Charlemagne and may he keep far emough away from the smell of the Jobby to be safe until the end of the eampaizn.—New Haven Times-Leader. Experts at Work, Naval experts are now busy casting about for some device to protect bat- tlaships againgt bombs dropped fiying machinés One suggests a sort of big umbrella, to be raised over the ship’s vitals at times when the aero- plane is expected. “We should think it would have to be a pretty substan- gial umbreila. Others have begun to figure on some way of training the ship’s guns on the overhead enemy and till others point out that the regula- on army rifle might be used effec- tively to put a stop to the aerial hom- bardment. Recent experiménts designed to prove the aeroplane’s utility as a bat- tleship destroyer have been quite con- vineing. It might be prudent to stop buflding battleships until it is deter- mined with some degree of definitd- ness, whether they would be any pos- sible value in the face of the devel- epment of the science of the air. But maval experts do not appear to have thought about that. Instead, they are trying to think up new ways of spend- ing money on the navy.—Ohlo State Journal.
