SCHOOL BOARD STAYS FIRM

Eau CIaire.-A sympathetic strike
of about $50 high school students,
thirty of whom were girls, in demand
that tWenty-three boys recently eX-
PEELED from the high school be rein
stated, is the latest development in
the controversy between school au-
thorities and students
1t had been decided by the parents
that the suspended students go back
peaceably to school, but they were
met at the main entrance and refused
admittance by the teachers. Calls
from strikers outside the building
brought several students when the
doors to all but the front entrance
were locked and the police guard plac-
ed at the unlocked door TO prevent stu
dents either entering or leaving.
After meeting in the park, a pa
rade in Indian file was formed, con-
about town traversing the business
section several times and disbanding
after deciding to remain on strike I'M
til all expelled students are reinstated
Internationally A majority of the
parents upheld the boys and public
sentiment seems to be equally divided.
Much discussion has been caused by
the locking of the doors at the high
school, contrary to state law. No
guards were left at the locked en-
frances, and if a panic had spread
among nearly 500 pupils remaining in
the building many lives would have
been imperiled, it is said

That wonderful production from the

His Brethren" the third of the pageant
plays of which THE Garden Of Allah" was
first, comes here to the New National
Theater tomorrow night for a weeks en-
gagement. Over go people are directly
concerned in this representation. The
play is divided into four acts, with
twelve elaborate scenes. The period in
which the events chronicled are supposed
to take place, easily lends itself to a
wonderful series Of pictorial episodes.
Joseph and His Brethren" has the very
atmosphere of the desert. and the bar
barous magnificence Of the courts Of the
Egyptian kings. Among the familiar
scenes represented are the tents Of Shem.
the wells of Dotham, and the immortal
pyramids themselves. There are hordes
of wild tribesmen, assemblies Of mobiles,
and warriors, and scores of dancing girls
and priests.
As is customary with ak the Liebler &
Co productions which go out from New
York on the road, the original cast is
maintained in its entirety. James O'NeiTl
is still playing Jacob. Brandon lyman,

estimates that he has written several
hundred plays, mostly melodramas, for
the popular-priced theater.
After his graduation from Harvard he
married and went to New York in search
of work. arriving in the metropolis at a
time when the melodrama was at the
height Of its popularity. The young
writer set to work turning out thrillers,
with the intention Of earning comfort
able sum and then going in for more
serious work. But the demand was 30
great, and the dollars which rolled into
his Golfers had such a merry Jingle that
he kept the thing up until he had turned
out no less thar 40 melodramas of the
type of his Nellie, the Beautiful Cloak
Model" -
With the decline of the blood-and-thun-
der type of play, Mr.. Davis was besieged
with offers to write scenarios for film
production. He turned these out by the
hundreds, but all the while his soul was
sick of cheap stun. and he turned his
thoughts continuously to art. Unfortu-
nately he had established a reputation
along the popular line, and no Broad
way manager cared to risk a play bear
ing his name, a fact which became such
a tragic handicap that he finally resorted
to sending an anonymous play to William
A. Brady. who Immediately bought 1t.
That play was ''The Family Cupboard"

volunteer comes forward. He Is a man

the race against time and death. The
curtain drops for a few minutes. When
II rises, the stage is filled with flames
and smoke. Presently a giant locomo-

from side to side as 1t thunders along
the melting rails. There Is just glimpse
through the smoke Of the man at the
throttle and the fireman who stands be-
hind him. throwing buckets Of water
over the engine-driver to protect him
against the flames. This big mechanical
effect is the pivotal episode in a story of
woman's love for an erratic but bril-
liant man. The central characters of the
story will be played tomorrow night by
Richard Butler and Frances Nelson.

work, he is indefatigable, having been

The Family Cupboard is by Owen
Davis, who achievedghis biggest success
with this play. No playwright in the
country has written as many plays as
has Mr.. Davis, and his craftsmanship
shows in this excellent piece of work
The story takes up a serious problem of
the day, the danger that turks near
every family whose members lose inter-
est In each other and forget the family
ties. The Nelson family portrayed in the
play Is supposed to be typical of thou
sands Of families in every city. And so
their problem is a common one and their
experiences may befall any one living in
