School Consolidation.

II is understood that some OF the people
OF The Winsor and Bell School Districts
in Johnston are somewhat exercised over
a proposed plan to transport the school
children OF those districts to the Belknap
schoolhouse. The Johnston school com.
mittee are said to favor such scheme, as
II is claimed that it will add to the eff
cheney Of the three schools interested.
Such a consolidation would give the Bel
KNAPP school a membership of about 20
pupils, which is considered an ideal mum
Der. There the pupils can be housed in
a fairly up-to-date school building which
-is provided with furnace heat Better
teachers can be provided there than can
generally be induced to go TO the smaller
schools in the Wnsor and Bell districts.
This plan is not favored by the committee
to save money, but TO improve the work
of the schools. The idea is worth the
honest and unprejudiced thought of
parents who have the best good of their
children at heart.

dsy mentioned the head is cut mys.
teriously from portrait Of him while

the head of her uncle's mutilated
portrait fastened to a tree with
four holes shot through 1t. She
gives il to Clyde who discovers that
a Chinese boy had borrowed rifle
from Cameron's lodge keeper. Fur
ther Investigation points to the fact
that the bog had fired the four bull

servant of an artist named Murphy
who lives in mysterious seclusion
not far from Cameron. Clyde finds
a pretext for visiting Murphy. The

IAN Hour Before Dawn" q Thrilling
Film Detective Play.


As a happy relief from the stereo-
typed and conventional moving picture
detective story, "An Hour Before
Dawn" a fitting sequel to Chelsea
1850 produced by the Famous Players
Film Co. establishes new standard of
mystery play. Featuring Laura Saw
yer and House Peters as the figures in
strumental in segtabifshing the inno-
cence of two lovers suspected Of a grue-
some crime, the story traces a kaleido-
scopic combination Of emotion, sus-
pense, imagination, and daring, and
utilizes Signor Ulivii's new invention,
which has so recently startled the
scientific world, a wondrous machine
for attracting a powerful elemental de-
structive force. which Miss Kirby
proves caused the death Of the muir
dered scientist. which also marks the
inception of the mystery.
Replete with intense situations and
overwhelming climaxes, the pot de-
velops with rapidity of motion and
continuity of thrilling episodes that will
fascinate the most blase audience.
With multiplicity of startling Incl
dents. few film stories or plays have
had more remarkable conception of
construction. An Hour Before Dawn
will easily rank among the other noted
Famous Players Productions. At the
Iris today and tomorrow.-Adv.
