CHILD LIFE
IN THE SCHOOL
HERENpo STREET SCHOOL

There is little doubt that many a
suffering man, otherwise doomed
to dyspepsia and mountainous dress
making bills, is to be rescued from such
fate by the domestic science depart
ment of the Los Angeles public schools.
Eta p. Flagg, head of this work, eX-
planned the system and mentioned some
of the gratifying results to the Berendo
Street Parent-Teacher association at
Wednesdays meeting.
She stated that the children were as
enthusiastic regarding the sewing and
cooking lessons as on the Playground
The pupils begin sewing and cooking
as early as the fourth grade. These
infants sew for their dolls, but as they
learn and advance they cut patterns
and make clothing for themselves. Tho
girls also develop wonderfully in the
culinary art. The schools of tho city
have many young but brilliant pot-pan-
and-apron stars.
The speaker declared that the work
was conducted strictly along practical
lines and the girls were educated in
sewing and cooking from ground
work up.
During the business session the asso-
citation voted to purchase another ref
erence book, THE Century of Thought"

The Theaters

For the week beginning Sunday mat
inee, the lie MOyne players at tine
Walker will present a society comedy
drama of life in New York city, Jim,
the Westerner.' This is the fourth To-
cal week of the LIE Moyne company and
it's members have become favorites
with the patrons of this cozy theater.
Mr. lie Moyne will be seen as Jim Ear
rol, the man from the west; Miss Mum
dorf as Mary Lawton, Mr.. Roach as
Simon Deans, Miss Snyder as the dea-
cons wife on her first visit to New
York, and Mr.. Hollingsworth as An
drew LaWton, the cause of all the
trouble. A special scenic production
is promised.
The coming production of wood
land" at the Grand opera house re-
calls an incident which occurred when
the piece was first given in Chicago
two seasons ago The suggestion was
made that the idea for the quaint plot
of woodland was utilized by the
French poet Rostand as the basis for
his Coquelin play, "Chantlcleer.
Rostand previously had been accused
of borrowing the material for "Cyrano
de Bergerac" from the work of a Chi
cago author, who sued Richard Mans
field in order to establish his alleged
authorship of the plot. In wood
land" the basic idea, that of making
all the characters birds, is somewhat
like that of "Chanticleer," although
the treatment is radically different.
The matter never came to judicial
issue, but the incident is interesting
i'm view of the approaching Frohman
production of "Chanticleer" in this
country.
The entire Hartman company have
been invited by the Merchants ana
Manufacturers association to go to
the Aviation camp on Monday after
noon and witness the flights of the va
rious types of machines which are
now breaking records.
Frederic Belasco yesterday tele-
graphed Oliver Morosco that he had
been successful in securing Cameo
Kirby for the Morosco- -Belasco en-
terprises, Furthermore, he advised
the Los Angeles manager that the play
would cost just $4,000 for the four
cities in which it will be played under
the direction of the Morosco-Belasco
combination. This money already has
been paid over to Liebler & Co.
agents, and is said to be one of the
highest royalties ever paid for the use
of single play by single manage
ment in stock.
"Cameo Kirby" is a romantic drama
of the old south by Booth Harrington
and Harry Leon Wilson. 1t was
played in Los Angeles last September
by Dustin Farnum ard his company
At that time Manager Oliver -1orosco
made up his mind to secure tie piece
if possible, for the use of the Burbank
players. He tried to get it on ms
recent eastern trip, but tailed, how
,,ver, he laid his plans carefully and,
with the assistance of Frederic Be
lasco, his business associate, finally
succeeded.
The play will be given an early pro-
duction at the Burbank.

Johnson Knocks JeffTies Out.

John Arthur Johnson, colored, of Tex
as, on last Monday established his clsim
as the champion heavyweight fighter of
the world by knocking out James ].
Jeffries in the fifteenth round of their
battle at Reno, Nevada. Jeffries was
simply outclassed at every stage of the
fight, and received severe punishment
at the hands of the black chsmpion.
While Jeffries was not actually counted
out, he was only saved from this crown
ing humiliation by his friends pleading
with Johnson not to hit the fallen man
again. Jeffries was dragged to his cor
ner, bleeding from nose and mouth and
dozen cuts on the face. He had a
black, closed eye and swollen features
as a result of the terrific right and left
jabs which Johnson continually rained
upon his face and head, while the latter
walked from the ring without so much
as a mark on his body, and the undis-
puted champion heavyweight fighter of
the world.

The Fourth of July passed off very
pleasantly here. There were quite a

were attracted to Pocahontas by the va
