1.-THE COLLEGE GIRLS" SCORE
WITH PATRONS AT PARK

'eThe College Girls" Max Spiegel
show, with Abe Reynolds and Miss
Dolly Morrissey featured, opened a
weekend engag cement in Bridgeport
last night. There is much that is
new in GOLDSMITH shops, a clever
chorus, and a Supporting cast which
knows the ropes and while sidestep-
ping the vulgar counters with amuse-
nent that has a punch behind it.
The diversion is in two acts with
Abe Reynolds as the pawnbroker,
Morrie Franklin as the college jani-
tor, Dolly Morrissey as the college
widow, Cleo Lewis as the aunt from
Paris, Leah Henry, Arthur Henry,
James Hunter and Walter johnson in
minor parts. NN
Among numbers which went over
for big hand were tMamma's Col
Iege Boy .eYou Made Me Love YOU
million Dollar Do1l,'' Dear Old
Girl and a specially violin perform
ance by Beatrice whoever she may
be-and her work deserves program
credit.
1t may beJsaid of the College Girls
that they are a better aggregation
than has been seen here in some years
and the new version is pleasantly en-
pertaining. It should afford amuse-
ment of a refined character to many
lovers of burlesque this week.

that of Walter James, a tramp COM

quality ran through a range of oper-

FROM THE GOLDEN BOOKS.
The City's Sleep.

(charles milford Robinson: The Cal
of the city, Paul Elder & Co, San
Francisco and New York. 1909
The city sleeps and dreams, and
dreams are sweet,
How dark and still the street!
At peace, the citizens all silent lie;
There is no FESTIVE eye;
The breath is calm, no hurried feet
go by,
Night falls, and rest is sweet
The strife and struggle of the garish
day,
The world of work and play,
The turmoil and the fghting-all is
past
Nor loves nor hates outlast
The wondrous shadow of the truce
that's cast
When night puts all away.
AS if the citizens were only boys
Grown tired of tasks and toys,
And seeking loving mothers knee,
that there
With bedtime kiss and prayer,
They might forget the daylight's lit
tie care
And surfeiting of joys.
o peaceful stars, compassioning,
watchful eyes.
Make low the lullabies
That in vast unison the planets sing;
Let them wake not nor bring
Too soon the piti1ess mad dawn on
wing
That cleaning, stirs the skies!
And then. pale moon, pass on with
silent tread
Thou'st seen the world to bed.
Do We, mild winds, snuff out her lit
tie light,
With big clouds soft and white,
AS she upon the sleeping world
shuts tight
The door, her good night said.
And We. black rivers. rolling to the
sea,
Roll on most quietly,
Lest We may wake the city, lying
still,
Unconscious of the Ill
Or good the morrow may bring
forth to fill
It's cup,-bIest mystery!
And last, Father of the world, lock
down
With smile, and not with frown,
And bless the city proud and rich
and great,

In childlike innocence.s immaculate

ON THE "AocREDrrEDr LIST.


Approximately one-third Of the H.
900 secondary schools in the United
States are on list of accredited
schools just issued by the United
States Bureau of Education. The
list, which was compiled by DR.. Ken
drtc C. Babcock, formerly Of the Blu
reau of Education, now Dean of the
College of Liberal Arts at the Uni
versity Of Illinois, is intended mainly
as guide to school and college Off
GERS in admitting students from 9TH
er States to advanced high-school
standing or to college, but incidentally
reveals the marked Improvement that
has recently taken place in secondary
education in the United States.
The Bureau list has been made up
chiefly from the various certifcation
lists maintained by the States. but
where the State officials print lists of
high schools of different grades. only
the schools of first rank are included
The general principles of selection are
that the school shall offer the IA or
15 points necessary for admission to
a standard college or university. each
point representing subject studied
for year; that the curriculum rep
resents 4 years of SO or more weeks
each; that at least 8 teachers give
their whole time to high-schoo1 work;
that courses of science include salts
factory laboratory work; and than
the school keeps up an adequate Ii
brary and laboratory equipment.
Both public and private secondary
schools are represented on the list,
names of private schools being print
ed in italics to distinguish them
from the others. Great care has
been taken to see that the names and
addresses are accurate, but warning Is
given that lists such as these are
bound to be out of date in a short
time. and credentials of earlier years
from many of the schools listed should
be received with caution" In some
States credentials issued before 1910
require special scrutiny, according to
DR.. Babcock, since high-schoo1 de-
veIopment in those States is a mat
ter of the past two or three years.
The need for list of accredited
tally evident in the frequent move
ments Of families for residence from
one part of the country to another.
A thousand miles counts for little
say the Bureau officials.

High School or the registration Off

likely at any time to have to pass on

1.-THE THEATRES |
'sIN THE BISHOPS
CARRIAGE" AT THE
EMPIRE THEATRE
Little Mary PicIzford And Fairfield
Boy in Famous Players Film

Boy in Famous Players Film.
Little Mary Pickford, probably the
best known actress appearing in the
film drama, holds the boards at the
Empire theatre today and tomorrow in
a, stage adaptation of Miriam Michel
sons famous story, I'm the Bishops
Carriage" This is another of the Fa-
nous Player photo-p1ays which have
become SO popular with picture lovers
and which are being fea tured at the
Empire theatre.
t'In the Bishops Carriage is the life
story of a girl thief saved from her
self through the intervention of a good
man, of her struggle for reforma ton
and her final triumph and parting from
the man who would have kept her in
the underworld to go to a newer and
better life.
Most book lovers and theatre goers
are familiar with the story. Nance,
charity ward, is beaten by the ma ron
of the institution in which she is placed
until she runs away and finds protec-
ton with Tom Dorgan, a crook. He
teaches her to steal. Hiding after a
theft at a society affair, she takes ref
uge in the bishops carriage much to
the astonishnGent of the prelate who
finds her there. Through this met
dent she meets the man who later
brings about her reformat ton, despite
Dorgan's efforts to force her to return
to him.
Like all Famous Player films, no ex-
pense has been spared the scenic
investiture. Some magnificent inte-
riors are shown as well as scenes on a
roof garden, in fine residential neigh
borhoods and on the docks looking out
to sea. The role of Nance gives Miss
Pickford unusual scope for the display
of her dramatic power.
In the supporting cast in the prin-
cipa1 male role is David Wall, Fair
field boy and one of the best known
of the male picture stars, who appears
as Tom Dargan, the crook. Other well
known actors appear in the other
parts The picture will be shown to-
day and tomorrow only.
