The Caucasian. (Shreveport, La.) 1900-192?, 1912-03-10
Must Resist and Defeat Harris
Schemes

The Homer Guardian-JOurnal
Says: "DOubtless a number OF
changes will be made in the school
laws by the next legislature. Whpth
|er Prof. Harris succeeds in getting
his system adopted or not ~therc
will be a number Of changes in the
|Cld law and the children will pro
badly be required to purchase an
|Cther sci of text books. Every four
years important changes are made
in the school laws and we presume
the next legislature will not be an
exception to the proceeding ones"
1t is the deliberate opinion Of the
Caucasian that the duty of the leg
iSlature is plain. AS the represent
tative Of the people the legislature
must resist and defeat the schemes
of Prof. Harris, as already outlined.
Should Prof. Harris be eIecteA iii

from these changes are the book

1t has been the way of all the sons
of Adam-laying the blame for the

She did what she thought to be the

tired of living in a FOOLS paradise,
where the family never would amount

AT CHURCH.

When the hymn was announced he
looked up the number and handed the
book to lady in his pew. He took an
other hymnal and, finding the place.

could scarcely keep my eyes off
him. he was such a manly. fresh col
cred, clean looking young fellow. Aft
err the service | sought him out and
shook hands with him. He was Il trav
cling man in town over Sunday.
A short conversation confirmed my
good opinion. He courteOusly acknOwl-
edged that the service and the sermon
were very helpful.
Now
Why do not more young men like this
one attend the church?
Is it because of the feeling-deplora-
oily prevalent-that church attendance
is unmanly and only for women and
old men?
Or because of feeling-almost wide
Iy prevalent-that. as rule, young
women have preference for irreli-
gious. freethinking, rapid going young
men?
1t is a mistake.
Nothing better becomes a young man
than church attendance. And it is also
true that right thinking young women
and all others are unworthy-ad
most of all in man, manliness and
strength, force and character.
And ..
If to these qualities are added rever-
ent thougltfulness and sense Of de-
tendency on higher power that
makes for Righteousness. why. such
mans esteemed beyond price.
Do not misjudge.
Everybody hates Il hypocrite. And
there is reserved for the young fellow
who cloaks religion for an unworthy
purpose the supreme contempt of a
wOmanly woman.
But
Down deep in the heart of every wo-
man is respect for the man who does
not parade his religious principles, but
who is not ashamed to- express them
publicly.
make no doubt, mind you, there are
plenty of good young fellows who for
some reason seek to hide their religious
emotions.
Which is false modesty and I'M
worthy.
If you have religion do not be
ashamed of it.
And if you have none do not be
proud Of that.

HARMONY. HEALTH. HAPPINESS.

And now abideth harmony, happi-
ness. health, these three, but
The greatest of these is harmony.
because upon harmony depends
both your health and your happiness.
Is there discord anywhere in your
mind or body? Then you are wasting
energy. vitality. The less you waste
of precious vital force the more power
you have to throw off disease
Fadism? It is a fact of medical
science.
When there is concord, harmony, the
processes Of digestion. assimilation
and elimination go on without fric-
ton. Food goes to the right place
and nourishes the cells of body and
brain.
But
Introduce discord; indulge in e.
of anger or envy; agitate your mind
to the point of worry. Instead of go
ing to the right place the food goes tc
waste and clogs the system.
The trouble?
Lack of cooperation. harmony.
There Is variance. dscord. In the
warning of the members force is lost
and you are rendered liable to disease
through weakness.
What Is true of digestion is also
true of the nervous system. Discord

Prostitution

.TRlSS' GAINS APPLAUSE OF
ELECTRIC PARK AUDIENCE

"Triss. or Beyond the Rockies" a
melodrama of the Western plains,
made familiar to ~playgoefs years ago.
was enacted by the Sibley players IN
the rustic theatre at Greater Electric
PARK last night. 1t Is perhaps the
hest thing that the players have pre-
sented thus far this season. Tnere Is
a vein of comedy interpolated
through the plot which keeps the au-
dience in good humor throughout.
The circumstances out of which
arise the dramatic complications re-
suit from the determination OF a WHY
Fastener to secure control OF a
richly-laden gold mine owned by
Triss. a young girl of the plains
The methods he employs to gain his
end and how he is finally frustrated
are aptly told in the unwinding OF
the story. In the title role Miss Mar
garet Keene again disclosed q tech

emotional resources and a sincerity In
the expression OF varying moods that
was very effective. The audience also
found much TO commend in the per-
formances Of Homer w. Sibley. as

ROUGH. RIDERS IN WILD
WEST AT HILLSIDE PARK

Hillside Park is daily gaining in
favor with the public. The popular
resort was attended by thousands on
Sunday and yesterday to witness a
varied program consisting of Wyom-
ing Bills Wild West and Congress OF
Rough Riders.
The piding and roping by the wom-
| enTand men is truly a wonderful ex-
hibition of frontier life. Charles Rob-
bins. chief of the cowboys, performs
the wonderful feat of roping six
horses at one time. Madame Maran-
tette and her Society Horses have
been reengaged and will perform
daily.

"PATIENCE" BRILLIANTLY
GIVEN AT OLYMPIC PARK

Patience" Gilbert & Sullivan's sa-,
tirical effort on the English poetical
and aesthetical craze of the '70's,
emanating from the publication of
Oscar Wilde's poems in England, re-
vived and produced by the Olympic
Park Opera Company, is delighttng
audiences at the Olympic Park Opera
House during the current week.
The role of the warped and temper
amental poet, Reginald Bunthorne. Is
in the hands of the capable Frank
Deshon, with Stella Tracey as Pa
thence, the pretty milkmaid. who is
also aesthetic, but not to the extent
of wearing brilliant-hued and loose.
flowing gowns and groveling about
on her knees in the wake of the poet
at the risk of spelling said gowns.
The winsome Miss Tracey's qualii-
cations as a songstress fit in admira-
bly, with her role and her singing Is
one of the pleasing features of the
performance. Likewise the vocal tai
| ents of the twelve dragons in their
stirring martial number, THE Heavy
| Dragoon,' which, set to Sullivan
music, is inspiring in the extreme,
The inimitable quirks of the Sulli-
van opera stand out as limpidly in
the score as in the great English
composers success, III. M. S. Pima
fore" From the numerous musical
selections throughout the perform
ance one cannot fail to recognize sew
eral present-day hits plagiarized by
modern musicians and woven into
modern musical comedy.
Though the theme of the story itself
is irrelevant and not applicable at
the present, 1t is one that can readily
be grasped and appreciated. The
opera sets forth in satire the de
luded devotion of our British cousins
to the aesthetic in art and poetry
during the decade in which the opera
was first produced. Donald Buchanan,
lately with Madame Tnentini, in
Naughty Marietta" is the duke.
while Miss Ann Tasker, always at her
best in buoyant moments Of the sons
and dance. is the aesthetic Angelina,
Twenty Love-Sick Maidens We"
"The Heavy Dragon" and willow
Willow Way" are as popular today as
when first sung thirty years ago, and
will be the encore numbers as long
as Patience" is produced.
AS the faithful and consistent Lady
Jane, Lucille Saunders, prone to be
c~orpulent. but never flckle to Bum
thorne, has the qualifications both In
voice and build to fit in tremendously
with the part. Overton Moyle, with
his sonorous baritone voice, pleases
as the Colonel. Archibald G%rosvenori
Bunthorne's rival, who is impressed
by his own beauty. is in the hands
of Russell Lennon.
If you have seen Patience this
Olympic Opera Company's conception
is worth while; If you have never
seen the Gilbert-S Sullivan success
there is a. treat in store for you.

LIONS AND HYENAS
HUNTED ON PROCTOR FILM

Paul ]. Rainey's African hunt pic
lures, combined with the announce
ment that motion pictures of the re-
cent suffragette parade in New York
would be exhibited, drew a large
audience to Proctors Park Place
Theatre last night. Among those
present were many women from diff
ferent parts of Essex. Hudson, Pas
sale and Bergen counties, who had
come for the express purpose of see
ing themselves in motion pictures.
During the intermission Mrs. Abra-
ham Van Wrinkle, president of the
Women's Political Union of New Jer-
sey, announced to the audience that
the suffragette pictures would not be
shown, as they had not arrived at the
theatre. owing to a misunderstanding
as to their delivery. Following this
Mrs. Van Wrinkle devoted a few min
utes to talk on woman suffrage, and
said in brief:
Every man holding or wishing to
hold public ONCE will be petitioned
by the union to consider the women
in his selections for the different po-
litical offices to whleh they are eliak-

WHITE SISTER"
WINS APPLAUSE
Payton Players at orpheum
Make Hit with Intensely
Emotional Drama.

This week the Corse Payton Stock
Company Is offering to its patrons
THE White Sister," a picturesque
play, and one of absorbing interest,
dramatized from the book of the
late Marion C. Crawford. Miss
Brownell, in the leading role, realis-
| tically portrays the woman who has
taken her first vows as a nun. The
story Is that of a young woman
without relatives or friends who, be-
lieving her finace, Captain Giovanni
Severi, has been killed In a distant
war while serving his country, enters
the convent in the hope of meeting
him in eternity. After five years
Imprisonment he returns to Rome

who has been injured, and is brought

Giovanni, as she now calls herself,

In spite of the pleadings of the man
she loves. who Is eager to wed her,
she remains ~ithful to her convent
vows. In the character of Monsig-
nor Saracinesca, Lee S%terrett clio
quently establishes the position of
the church in the matter. Sister
Giovanni, realizing her duty. deter
mines to go forth to minister to a
colony of lepers, and the captain.
still insisting hat the church is
wrong in allowing young women who
are fitted to become wives and
mothers to be sacrificed in such a
manner, demands of Monsignor Sara
cinesca that a dispensation for her
release be secured from the Pope. In
order to gain his ends. he lures the
white Sister to his rooms, ocated
over a powder arsenal, compelling
her to sign the document, threaten
ing that he will otherwise destroy
both her and himself.
A jealous rival, the Countess OF
Chiaromonte, discovers her in the
room, and the dramatic incidents here
featured allow action.
Following the signature by Sister
Giovanni, her intended realizes what
1t has cost her. The dispensation Is
destroyed, and in the struggle which
follows the captain fires a fatal shot,
which leaves her free to carry out
her mission.
