held was that in time they could own
number of nice summer cottages
and advertise them largely to teach
ers and other summer visitors TO Col
orado. and thereby secure a nice In
come from them. Now II is a pleas
ure to record that they have taken the
first step and are the owners OF a
handsome acreage in Platte canon
bordering upon the North Platte river.
and improved now with one cottage.
The deal was concluded Tuesday. II
is at a spot 81 miles from Denver. just
this side OF Dome Rock and along one
OF the most popular fishing streams in
Colorado. The outlook is a fine one.
sitting up on knoll with the craggy
rocks OF the canon just in front Of

out of the fact that the plans thus far
are all their own.

1--WE all know that children steal to
attend these theatres. We know that
young girls have met their moral down

are but cheap shelters for the propaga-
ton of vice.
1T has come TO my notice that two
young girls. supposed to be at work,
who brought home their wage every

DETROIT, Mich. Nov. 24.-Over a

good If he is engaged by the pro-
prietor
Moving pictures are a blessing
when properly show But it must be
admitted that at present there IS
q deplorable Indifference to health,
morality and education in the fve-cent
houses.
Il am almost tempted to say that ]
regret that the films were ever shown
in fve-cent houses. They should have
been exhibited in the twenty-five and
hfty-eent houses. because in that way
a high standard would have been
maintained.
However, because I realize that the
poor must have some recreation and
enjoyment, I will fight for a strict en-
forcement of the law.
Strangers buy for Children.
Moving picture theatres have a very
firm hold on the young. In Orange, in
two places where 1 know that an effort
is being made to enforce the law, chill
dren go in by asking strangers TO buy
tickets for them.
II also know that q little fellow who
stole goods and sold them for twenty
five cents did so, according to his own
confession, to see picture plays
THE obvious remedy is this: Every
policeman should be responsible for the
enforcement Of this law, as he is for
the enforcement of other laws. The
