PLAN EXPLAINED
Speaker Says Normally Consti-
tuted Children Should Not Go
to State Institutions.

The advantages of homes over State
institutions for needy children, and the
means for placing them, We're discussed
at a meeting of the Newark Conference
of Charities and Corrections, held in
the Free Public Library last night.
Miss Helen c.. Bennett, an editor of
the D~elineator, spoke of the charity
work being carried on by that maya
zine. The D~elineator's plan is to use
institutions for mentally deficient and
dependent children, but to place nor
NAL children in private homes where
J they may get the best home influences.
| "In placing the children" Miss Ben
nett said, there are three problems:
First, to find harmonious surroundings,
that is, to place children with persons
whose temperaments are hest suited to
bring out the best in the child; second,
the difference in State laws which often
renders 1t difficult to place a child in
one State from a home in another. and
third, to make sure that the persons
wishing to take the children mean to
do their best for the children's inter
est and are not procuring them for un-
worthy purposes
Hugh F. Fox, president of the State
Board of Children's Guardians. was
also of the opinion that children should
not be taken from one State into an
other, He said the State should nave
power TO interfere in case a child was
not properly cared for.
The other speakers were: Benja-
min Atha, on '"The Development of the
/ Child in the Home and In the 1nstitu-
tion;' the Rev. Theodore NJ. Shipherd.
and the Rev. DR.. James /. Vance, who

GHOST IN BLACK HAS

hope of laying it. Seemingly, it is

Many women have seen it following
them They are terror-stricken and
are afraid to go out of doors after
O'Clock at night.
Capt. SEWERS, who is gallant tar
boasts his long experience as a sailor
taught him not to be afraid of any
woman nor the ghost of any woman
Therefore, if he can get within grab
bling distance of the ghost, he thinks
something will happen. The Sag Har-
Dor women are praying earnestly the
ghost may fall into his clutches, be-
cause until it is caught they cannot
go out to quilting parties, carpet-rag

Many of the young women also com
plain bitterly that they are deprived

The Wayne Musical Comedy COM
pany, which is playing three peform-

ers, good music, and successful COM
edy These are the end of every
mans desire, who attends musical

Last nights production was carried
on with nerve and zest. The chorus
works as if it were paid for it. There
was song and dance and dance and
song galore and, of course, as is the
fashion with musical comedy, once
in while the plot was brought in
and gave the song and dance and
dance and song a good excuse. Which
Is all that is required of musical

ducing an honest and genuine laugh

Gribbon is equally popular with the
audience and did some really artistic
work in the role OF maid of all

O'Connor, who acceptably enacted
the part of Harry Pompinjay have
good voices. Mr. Fred Wayne has
legs that are as good as the best
of them and he ought to turn them
loose and let them do their worst; he
can dance
But it is not fair to discriminate
especially when there are so many
pretty girls in the chorus. The
Wayne Musical Comedy company is
really something different; they ac-
tually give a good, high class show
at popular prices. They deserve the
patronage of the public, not because
1t is popular priced company but
because the company gives a gem
timely pleasing performance
Mr.. Fred Wayne, who, in addi-
ton to dancing, writes plays and
makes speeches for his company,
came before the curtain last night
and explained that he was trying to
establish a reputation for the Wayne
Musical Comedy company in the
South and that he expected to come
again-and to draw bigger houses,
because he felt that he deserved them.
