Essanay comedy. "The Bank"

to all lovers of real humor. Charles
lChaplin's inimitable facial expressions
and his comic antics abound IN the
play. but much Of the slapstick variety
OF fun gives way to genuinely hum
lorous situations.
| The comedy has we'll defined plot,
lin contrast to the usually loosely con-
Injected scenes of the ordinary screen
comedy. And there is an element OF
ipathos in the play which adds great
Nv to Ats general interest, while de-
tracing not at all from the comic sit'
iuations. In fact, it rather acts as
foil and intensifies the fun.-Adver.

Subscribers Who Pay and Those
Who Don't,

The News sent out the past week
about 100 notices TO subscribers who
were behind on subscription. Responses
have been very gratifying indeed, but
there are always few people who pay
no attention to these notices and we
are forced to take their names from the
list, assuming that they do not wish
the paper and decline paying what is
due. How much more friendly and
honorable it would he IL people would
just notify us when they wish the paper
stopped and pay for the few months it
may have run over. New names are
being continually added to the list, and
in far greater number than those taken
off, and we have no hard feelings
toward anyone who wishes the paper

rightfully belongs to your commun-

kinds of dollars the dollar with

to the far distant city, the big me-

the 7-day butter contest to be put
on under the direction of State
Dairy Commissioners E. G. Bennett,

All that is necessary to enter the
contest, open for any and all breeds,
is for the exhibitor to secure from
his creamery man certificate that
he is selling milk products to that
dairy from the animals exhibited.
This should be one of the very
best and most attractive features of

The Small Boy in War
By c. Z. SEARS.

Literature Is full af accounts Of the
small boy. at school and at play
Humorists have depicted his weak
nesses. his mischievous proclivities, and
volunteer poets have made him the victim
OF rhyming obituaries. Dickens has paint
ed him in pathetic colors. Thackeray
has alternately satirized and sympa-
thized with him. and Hughes has de-
scribed him in his character of friend
and fighter. None Of his peculiarities
has escaped detection
But this part of his history has been
over and over narrated. Ny purpose
is to give some account Of the small
boy on the battleheld-not in the petty
conflicts that occur on the playground,
but in the fercer and bloodier clash
OF arms. where the very souls Of grown
men were tried. and where they are
oftener found wanting than the small
boy.
After Julius Caesar had conquered
Gsul, Britain. and Egypt. and had even
overcome the great Pompey at Pharsalia,
he found a victory over Pompey's two

great battle OF Munda, his army was
about to yield before their intrepid
leadership. when he rushed among hi.
