For the past two years the Famous
| Players Film Company has made ev-
cry possible effort. and some apparent
~ impossible attempts, TO elevate the
melton picture to a stage and status
hitherto esteemed far beyond plausible
reach: ii has fought a sincere and re-
lentless battle against every element
and influence inimical to the art; it has
striven with grim purpose to create
for the motion picture a nobier SEN
timent, broader appeal, and a deep
er sympathy. Ambitious struggle and
ndefatigable effort have resulted in
vast victory, a thrilling triumph. The
little acorn of hope has grown to
a sturdy oak of achievement. The
guiding motive to present the famous
players OF the day in their foremost
successes in motion pictures.
For the present generations and for
posterity, has already attained n elo
rious realization. The silent drama
has spoken with deafening notes of
the might of mans labor, and the
strength of has endeaNors and has
sent message of hope and promise
to the heart of the world, and the soul
of the earth has echoed response. bu;
will not resign themselves TO their
temporary triumph but shall extend
their efforts and expend their strength
to achieve a permanent conquest.
Fer the future, commencing Oct. Is,
the Colonial will start to present one
of these famous releases each week.

VETERANS SEEK
WIVES ON OLD
BATTLEFIELD

GETTYSBURG, Pa, June 90
In addition to the spirit of broth
erly love which will prevail at
Gettysburg battlefield during the
Blue and Gray reunion in July,
romance may flower where shells
screamed and bullets sang half a
century ago.
This is indicated by the follow
ing note received by j. Allen
Holtzworth, burgess of Gettys-
burg, from a Civil war veteran at
st. James, Mo.
There are four or five of us
old veterans of the battle of
Gettysburg in this county who
will be in your city at the cele-
bration and IL you have a few
good widows or old maids who

Principal III. +. Hunt said the
275 were all that are left of 600
who entered school IL years ago.
He thought it might be necessary
later for the state to compel all
to go through high school. He
did not believe it essential for all
who go through high school to go
through college. About ~ per
cent he thought would find it de-
sirable.
The program included declama-
tions by the honor students of the
class, Miss Elizabeth Shackelford.
Miss Ruth Poyns, Stanley STATE

Miss Eunice Prosser was received
with much pleasure by the aud
fence that PACKED the auditorium.

During the hot months moth

When trouble results it is usu-

of diarrhoea. If the child loses

complains of headache, you may
look for constipation. Give it a
small dose of DR.. Caldwell's

dents, 24O strong, distributing
Bibles and preaching to the peo-
pie, addressed 1900 people at

He especially prayed against
the creeds and dogmas of the
present churches and denounced
the doctrine of "hellfire" vehem-
emily He says the doctrine of
hell is ERRONEOUS, that there is
no hell except the grave and that
all will live in the grave until
the next coming of Christ when
the faithful will be resurrected to
dwell in joy forever.

WASHINGTON, d, c., June 20.
The wishing sash, which must
never be united until the wish
you made while tying it comes
true, has come to town under the
ehaperonage of Miss Dorothy Will
liams, sister of Mrs. Joseph Lett
er and one of the most popular
bellies of the army and navy set.
The sash has come in vogue with
other Balkan styles and is most
effective when worn with white
dresses. With a single reef
around the waist the sash drops
way below the knee and is tied
in true sailors knot there. AS
naval men alone seem to have the
hnack of tying these knots they
are very popular just now.

RAINIER, Mimi, June 20. - A
Poland China hog has become SO
much attached to a span of horses
owned by A. Lassard that it sleeps
in the big stall the horses occupy
and whenever it gets an oppor-
tunity it follows them just as a
dog would.
Sometimes the hog has been
permitted to accompany the span
on drives, and apparently the
horses feel kindly toward it, for
1t has wandered around their feet
without having been hurt.
