HERALD FOLK HAVE
TREAT At CRAWFORD
Two Performance are Thoroughly En-
jOyed by Great Crowds as Guests
OF FL PasO Herald.

OF FL PasO Herald.
Herald folk had a big time Friday
afternoon and evening at the special
Memorial day matinee and evening per-
formances at the Crawford motion pic
ture and vaudeville theater. When the
little folk Of the FL Paso Herald's hap
by family came with their coupons
cut from the sOUthwests greatest fam
uy newspaper, the managers Of the
Crawford told them to take them back
home and give them to their motherse
for the evening show, and the doors
were thrown open to all who wished
to see the afternoon show, by courtesy
Of The Herald
The show was a big ten cents worth
and all of the Riddles who attended
Friday afternoon had the time of their
short young lives watching the films,
the strong man and the musical Still
lings, with their banjOs. The first
film was a thriller and this pleased
the kids. They Kissed the william,
cheered the COW pucher hero, and
shouted their heads off at the happy
ending.
Between the first and second photo
play Cavali, gave an exhibition OF
strength, which made the grOWnups
marvel. and had the kidlets holding
their breath. He lifts cannon balls,
plaza coppers and stage hands without
perspira ton.
The banjo playing Stillings, a man
and woman. closed the show ana gave
a wonderful exhibition on their mu-
steal instruments. They played the
newest ragtime. the Oldest plantation
songs and even classical selections on
their banjOs.
Manager J. Y. Yeager was present in
person 10 see that the children got
their moneys worth as The Herald's
guests Friday efternOon. and the entire
first floor and balcony were filled The
complimentary entertainment was re-
peated Friday evening for the mothers

Deadliest Weapon of All
The HypOdermic Needle Has No
Law to Keep IL Out Of Reach
of the Innocent.
I L.
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox

m HERE are commercially strict
laws in our land against the in
discriminate carrying of deadly
weapons.
Children and youths are restricted in
their use Of pistols and knives.
To purchase poisons requires a ply
sician's prescription or personal iden-
tification. But there Is a deadly
weapon which jeOpardiZes the health,
reason and morality OF young and old,
yet which seems TO be easily procured
of any druggist, by any youth, girl or
stranger. as a box Of chocolate drops,
or a glass Of soda
This more than deadly instrument IS
the hypodermic needle.
1t is q surgeons instrument. and Of
great value TO the world in the hands
OF. skilled specialists. 1t often relieves
otherwise unbearable agOnies of the
sick and dying.
But even in the hands Of doctors it
is a menace to the health and absolute
reason or patients unless the mind Of
the physician is well poised and his
sense of responsibility fully awake.
But how terrible becomes this deli
cate and Inexpensive weapon when it
falls into the possession of a weak
Willed youth, or a young girl, or a de-
spOudent man or woman who has be-
come discouraged by illness or sorrow
or misfortune and seeks temporary re-
lief from mental or physical pain
through the needle point
The result is far worse than sudden
or early death. for the loss of the phys
ical body must eventually come in the
process Of the evolution of the soul in
its progress to other planes. But the
loss of the VIII is the direst disaster
which can befau a human being
Every weakness every tendency to
vice, sloth and Incidence. is increased
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1913-05-31

every aspiration is slain; every ambi-
tion is crippled; every venture menaced.
Yet in view Of all these incOntrOverti-
bic facts no law exists COR if IL exists,
it is not enforced) TO protect the young,
the ignorant or the impressiOnable
from the purchase and use Of this in
strument
It would appal the parents OF the
land If they knew to what extent the
deadly weapon is employed.
Good people who are waging worthy
war against drink. cigarets and social
sins, would be amazed if they knew
that in their own circle Ofttimes in
their own families. the poor victims Of
the hypodermic needle were dwelling,
and that no voice and no law fOrbids
the accused habit or renders il diff
cult to acquire.
Why Not Protect?
We have innumerable institutions
lowered by generous phtlanthrOpists
for the cure OF these victims. But why
do we not rise in united strength and
pass and enforce with untiring vigil
lance laws to protect the young, the
i'll, the weak from needing treatment
in these cures2
Away with the accursed needle from
our chemists open shop Let the use
of fit require as great authority as the
use of the surgeons knife, or the ad-
ministratiOn of chlorOfOrm or ether.
In the hands Of a wise, kind, large
minded, skilled specialist il may serve
holy purpose, Of mercy.
In the hands of the uninstructed it
is the devils tool
Keep 1T away from such hands-COpy-
