IN THE THEATRES
POLI'S.

The raw gawk from the country quickly transferred to a rah rah boy during his freshman year at a fresh water university is just one of the many comedy bits in the brilliant funny George Ade comedy The College Widow which the PoIi Players are presenting at Polls this week to the largest and best pleased audiences of the summer stock season. Even as short a time as year back managers would not give a moments thought to the production of a play with such possibilities and requiring such large company, to say nothing of the big royalty, as is The College Widow but Manager Poli has proven all sea- son that there is nothing in the play line that can be leased that costs too much for him to pay to the end that his patrons might be pleased
 The College Widow is recognized as one of the two brightest plays that Ade ever penned and history or gos- sip as you will. has it that Ade found most of his types at the little fresh- water college where he received his education in the higher branches. Be that as it may Ade never got some Of his types at that college. Football is the basic note of the plot and the annual Thanksgiving game between Atwater and Bingham the key note of the comedy. Atwater is in need of men behind the line. Billy Bolton arrives on the scene but with the intention of playing with the rival college, the Atuater boys enlist the services of the The College Widow and Bolton finally allows the girl to win him over and he wins the game. The play means four acts of laughter and it is as clean cut a comedy as one could ask to see. MT. Ince plays the role of Billy Bolton the famous half back, Miss Stockwell as Jane Witherspoon the College Widow, and there are more than twenty other speaking parts besides a large com pany of extras. Stage Director Eagle has given the comedy a superb pres
 entation and a splendid stage setting and every one who wishes to enjoy good laugh and pure fun should see this great comedy.

 The Third Degree has never been seen to better advantage and nothing but praise has been heard from all sides for the exceptional cast which Mir. Harris has supplied. In New Ha- ven. where Bobby Burnt was seen Monday and Tuesday nights. both the press and public received it with great enthusiasm and it played to capacity houses both nights
 The story of the play centers around Bobby Burnit. happy care-free young fellow. who had never known what responsibility meant until his father died, leaving him a large department store and SS53.G00 in money Bobby has never done anything in his life or such a serious nature as managing a department store. and through his absolute ignorance of business affairs he loses control of it the first crack out of the box. Wishing to do some thing smart in the very beginning, he has reorganfzed and incorporated the company. letting in some politicians and grafters who soon oust the young man.
 Bobby then invests his 0.000 II: an electric light plant which is on the verge of Bankruptcy
 With what stock he has left in the store he buys newspaper and then he begins to make good. His father un- derstood Bobby so we'll that he left sealed letters to be opened by the boy at various stages of his business ca reer, and in each of these letters the mistakes he has been making all along are clearly pointed out With a news paper at his command he attacks the ring of politicians and soon has them on the run. Eventually he regains all he has lost and marries the girl whom his father had picked out for him as an ideal wife.
 The play is full of laughs due to the ludricous difficulties in which Bobby finds himself. and should prove to be delightful evenings entertainment for local theatre goers.

WILL AMERICAN
 WOMEN "HOBBLE?''

The ''hobble''-that very scant, very straight skirt which has come over here from France and which owes it's origin to the very windy, very cold weather which Paris experienced this Spring-has not met with the enthu- siastic approval of well-dressed Am erican women, according to Grace Margaret Gould.
 Miss Gould, the fashion editor of the Woman's Home Companion, states in the September issue of that publi- cation that, while American women like to hear all about these new, very scant, very French skirts, they will insist on their being modified so as to make the hobble and hop unneces- sary.
 In connection with this article Miss Gould pictures and describes two gowns showing the French idea varied by a practical American touch or two.

Slater May Re Assumed Name
(ErOm Mouday'a na}1vl

1t appears to be entirely probable
that the man who is lying with a
bullet wound in his hip and who
gives the name of Joe Slater. will re-
cover. Tattooed on his arm is the
name of Joe Conorty. which the man
says is the name OF his step father
and denies that 1t has any connection
with his Identity. He denies that
the person from whom the authori-
ties have heard in Denver is his
cousin and that he has a mother liv-
ing in Pueblo.
The physicians who have been at
tending him state that the man will
probably not care to prosecute Pearl
Rowe who shot him. Inquiry has
come to the authorities from Idaho
from a woman who claims to have
lost her brother named Joe Slater,
an electrical engineer. but physicians
assert that there IL no connection
between the man wanted and Joe
Slater who lies in the hospital here
Slater has been steadily improv.

is now said to be small doubt but

In spite of the wishes of the people
as expressed at the polls.
There Is no doubt but that tne
brewery interests Of Denver are be-
hind the placing OF saloons in Evans
That town has been looked upon
With envious eyes by the saloon IN
terests for many years, for the neid,
with Greeley and other towns as
contributory, offers great money In
ducements to the saloon man.
The saloon interests have thrown
down the gauntlet to Evans and
Weld county with the silent insinua-
tion "what are you going to do
about it?"
That the question will come to the
courts there is no doubt-but it will
not be taken there by Evans as a
city. Evans as a city-as expressed
by her councils for the saloons
II is matter of the majority OF the
people against the city adminstra-
ton.
Looking back, there was re-
markable cleverness displayed by
the brewery interests in Evans dur
ing the latest campaign.
Knowing well that they must have
popular men to head their ballot
they picked such as they believed
would win. After the election two
of these officials resigned from the
board and men were placed upon it
who. it is claimed. would never have
been elected by the people.
The matter of keeping saloons out
OF Evans is one in which Greeley
and surrounding towns are vitally
The town administration
of Evans has done its work-she has
the saloons to enter-now
it is up to those who are against the
entrance of saloons in that town to
make the next move.
One thing is certain, in a matter |
which has such vital bearing on this |
city, Greeley will not sit silently by |
and allow the brewery interests of |
Denver to place wine shops in Evans. |
And the dry" element of Evans will |
need help. They are now fighting-l
not with the town administration
with them-but openly against them
and working In cooperation with .
of influential men Of this !
city and of Denver.
