AT THE AUDITORIUM.

Special Universal Features ooay.
 For the last two days of this week the Auditorium has selected 5000 feet of the best films from that famous Universal programme, with the com edy end of it prevailing.
 The programme starts with the reg ular Auditorium Friday and Saturday number, which is the Animated Week. ly. No. 107. All the latest and inter esting items of interest from every where will be seen, and will demon- strate the fact that the Animated Weekly has camera men everywhere the sun shines. No. 2 will be our old friend and fayorite, King Baggott, as- sisted by dainty Ethel Grandin and the Imp Co, in the funny farce comedy entitled The Box Couch. which depicts the adventures of a newlywed.
 Next will follow a two-reel adapta- ton of that famous old novel. Jane Eyre, a book that millions have read. This is special release of the Imp Co, with an all star cast headed by Irving Cummings, the Pathe star. It IS not necessary to go over the plot, as Jane Eyre is book that is known to all.
 The final number is another two reel feature, but a comedy. and it is 90 minutes of solid laughter entitled She Was Only a Working Girl.

A Bow and 4 (;un.

/ A ten-year-old boy. who was
was equipped with a rife capable OF
killing, was placed Id Jail the other
day In an eastern. city Tor shooting a
boy companion dead with the
weapon. Because OF his youth there
was a great public cutlery against
locking him UP, everybody thinklnA
1t extremely inhuman except tns
father of the boy who was killed, He
viewed the case from a different
angle.
Admitting that 1t is foolish and
cruel to lock up a boy OF ten in
such circumstance and putting him
in a pitiful state of tearfulness and
terror, but assuming that some one
ought TO be locked up for the sake
of the law and the safety of society,
a New York newspaper asks three
very pertinent questions. which
should carry lesson to certain
thoughtless and negligent parents:
Who then ought 10 he the pris-
oner in the case? Who is really re-
sponsible for the young life that has
been sacrificed SO uselessly. so
wantonly? Is 1t not the incredibly
rash and criminally reckless person
who armed n boy Of ten with a little
rife, capable OF killing, and sent him
ou: to play with it?

accordingly arranged an exhibit 70
be held in the rooms OF the public
schools on Saturday mornings, when
they were not used by the children.
Both parents and children were urged
to attend the shows, for which arnom-
mai charge was made. Opinions as
to the suitability of the pictures were
solicited; In q word. the parents Of
the community were constituted a
board Of censors for the films to be
shown their own children.
The appeal was extremely fair
minded. and 1t was responded to lib
orally Many children to whom the
regular moving picture theater had
long been a forbidden delight saw
their first motion pictures at these
Saturday exhibitions.
There can be no doubt .but that
many persons. kwho realize the Inn
mense educational possibilities OF the
motion picture; have been prejudiced
against that form OF amusement by
the reports they have heard of lack
OF adequate censorship. The direct
method Of overcoming this prejudice
adopted by the Louisville producers
will probably become OF wide use.

Tears gathered in his handsome
eyes like crowds about a scoreboard

for me?" he questioned himself as he
looked at the likeness with longing

The lovely face in the photograph
gazed back at him without answer.
Greedily he drank in the trusting
expression, the expressively lovely
eyes, the luxuriant brown hair.

With the picture still in his. hand
he staggered to the mirror and gazed

There WAS on doubt OF it. The large
bald spot in the center of his head
was still spreading!
"oh, why did not take care Of /,

again his eyes fell yearningly on the
picture of himself taken seven years
before.
Outside, all was spring.
