Membership in the club will be held
not only by town people. but by peo-
pile from all over the country, many

POII'S

Standing room only was the rule yesterday afternoon and evening at the PoH theatre, and that such con
 dftions will prevail during the Tues day and Wednesday performances is not questioned by the thousands that laughed and then became convulsed over the queer antics performed by Charles Chaplin and his new conie-
 dian partner in the best Essanay
 comic ever produced. The title
 'tCharles Chaplin and His Night Out
 does little justice to this great work
 of un, for there is not a minute that laughter and fall is not pred ominant.
 Probably the greatest tumbling act
 ever produced outside of the circus
 ring is introduced in this masterpiece
 of comedy, and situation, each ap-
 parentIy more ludicrous than the blast come tumbling rapidly upon each others heels. The film has a nnirth producing punch unequa1led yet by Chaplin himself and those who love pictures will find at Poli's
 mother comedian who will later as- l pire to Chaplin honors.
 Ia A big vaudeville bill has also been brought to this city headed by that
 veteran acrobat and actor Col. Marc Mime Grant, whose combined ages is over 16O years, yet whose activity the most youthful dancers seen in public to day Their exhibition of social and novelty dances is the ex- l treme of the art and in their whirl-

ARMED ryEUTRALrTY BETyVFE " E FEN GERMS AND BODY DEFENsEs
 PREVENTS COLDS.

People who have colds, according to
 the U. s. Public Health Service, are
 suffering from an attack of germs
 which they carry. in their own mouths
 or threats. These have been permitted
 to reside there in 9 state of armed
 neutrality between the germs and the
 body defenses until fatigue, emotion, Eintemperance, over-exertion; or sudden
 Temporarily reduce the integrity o-e chill temporarily reduce the integrity of the body's defensive agents. This
 produces the aggregation of symptoms
 known as 8 cold. Colds are really very serious matters, and should never
 be treated lightly. If the body,s resis- ltance to one kind of disease germ is lowered it is quite easy for other germs to take 9 foothoEd and spring
 into activity at such a time. The in Ifection that has produced cold may
 extend to other parts of the body, and laniddle-e ear disease and deafness may
 ensue, or a. remote Joint may be in- fected, thus causing a lowered eff Eciency throughout fife Many Of the cases which are diagnosed as rheuha-

tfsm are merely the chronic poisoning which results from the continued growth of the same germs which pro duce colds. Since colds are induced by a lowering of the bodily efficiency, It is seem that they may be avoided by the maintainance of the bodily pro cesses in a good condition This means the observance of the rules of hygiene adequate food, avoidance of excesses. the securing of sufficient sleep and the like. Above all, the teeth should be kept in good condition and the mouth kept clean.
 It is the duty of persons who have colds to take every precautton against transmitting them to others. The as- ency in the transirntssion of colds from one person to another Is the sputuna and this transferance may oc- cur directly by sneezing, coughing or expectorating. Some one has called the cold the strap hangers disease because of the frequency with which it is con traced in overcrowded street cars The. common handkerchief is a great trans hitter of the disease People with colds should either destroy the hand kerchiefs which they use or sterilize them by boiling them. If you do not want to give your cold to somebody else, hold your Handkerchief or your hand over your face when you cough or sneeze, and do not indulge in pro miscuous splitting. If you do not wish to contract a cold from a person who has one, avoid intimate personal con tact with him. In the old days they used to hang a. bag of asafetida around the school boys neck in order to per form the function for which it was designed, because the odor of asafetida is such to discourage close personal contact. A little cold is a dangerous
 thing. Many 9 case of tuberculosis is
 dated from a neglected cold. Keep up
 your bodily defenses and avoid the
 careless person who is acting as a
 chronic distributor of colds
