The Craigs and Smiths, next door

which threatens to upset the entire
neighborhood, and all because of a
little damage done by three or four
chickens in the garden. The feud
grows to such an extent that a
spite fence is erected between their
two gardens and the members of
each family are forbidden even to
speak to members of the other.
The eldest son and daughter of
the respective families do not look
with favor upon the feud and con-
tinue to make love. with one an
other as if nothing at all had oc-

Every man, woman and child in

these regions that could never be
obtained through any other means
but the moving picture, which is to
day recognized to be the greatest
educational and amusement enter
prise Of the age. In this pict fre
we will see the human and animal
life of the frigid zones In their fia-
tive homes, which will be more in
teresting and instructive than see
ing the same thing under the cir
Gus tent. The ordinary child does
not take much interest in reading
about these things in his school
books, but when he sees the ami
mated reproduction of what he has
read, it Immediately attracts his at
tention and he at once becomes
much interested. What he gees in
the pictures will leave a far more
lasting impression on the chi1d's
mind than the most vivid word
painting his teacher could give him.
