COLLAPS|bLE STAGE BUILT
Unique Structure is That on Which Lubin Troupe Will Conduct It's In doors' Scenes at State Fair Grounds

A colapsble stage, sufficiently large for most any work that an or dinary moving picture company might want to do indoors was completed yesterday for the Lubin troupe at the fair grounds. But the most remark able fact is that this stage is apso- lutely unlike any other in the world, on account of the manner in which it can be taken down and put up in another location Three hours are all that are required to dismantle and pack it for shipment in an ordinary car. and six hours work will put it back in shape for use again.
 The big part of the contract was handled by the Phoenix Tent & Avn ing company, which made all the canvas parts. Steel pipe forms the frame work, and over this is stretch ed canvas covers for the sides, seen cry and accessories. Each part is numbered, so that in refitting the stage, workmen will have no diff culty in putting it back together just as it belongs. The ideas were sup piled by Director Roma inc Fielding, in charge of the company.
 The first stage work will be dore this morning, when most of the mem bers of the troupe will be given parts and set to work registering emotions and things in the films.

 Mrs. Newsome is one of the most brilliant women of the state, which coupled with her always pleasing personality makes her favorite speaker Those who heard her talk on education will never forget the inspiration, strength and beauty of spirit with which she impressed her hearers. She deplored the fact that this was an age of materialism and advocated better balance of the ma terial and the artistic. Her idea of college she said was that the Toy should develop into man, edu- cation should not merely be a step leading to a profession or a business but course in character building If education does not bring man

IT WAS REAL LOVE
BY MYRTLE BAIRD WEBSTER.

Peter Lowden was a disappointed
man He had been six months in the
United States and half that time in
Chicago, and it seemed as though that
period had been set aside by some
cruel destiny as a special purgatorial
test for his stanch spirit

sighed as from a deep dark pit of
penury and Encouragement. "And

That was where honest loyal
Peters heart pinched hardest. He
could philosophize calmly over high
hopes quickly blasted as to sudden
wealth and position in the new far

dish of weak brose and an occasional

heart How he had hoped to wed his
pretty modest fiancee and Dusk her

1t had come about strangely. She,
an orphan, had left the little town
where both had been born a few
months in advance of Peter. She
had written him as agreed only once
to furnish him with the penciled ad
dress of the home in Chicago where
she had found employment as a lady's
maid. Armed with this. Peter started
to try his own fortunes in America
and to be near his future bride.
For three months in New Yorl

looking for work. Finally he saved

CHAPTER XIII.
The ProdIgal's Departure.

Abraham was up betimes in the
morning to greet a day crisp and cold,
quiet, yet with sufficient breeze stir
ring the evergreens in the yard out
side to make him predict a speedy
voyage.
The old man was nervous and ex-
cited, and, in spite of his buoyant
anticipations, somewhat oppressed,
now that the day had actually come,
he put on a bold face while Angelina
fastened his refractory collar and tied
his cravat
This was neither Mrs. Homan's Of
fering nor Abe's own old, frayed tie,
but a new black one which had mys.
teriously been thrust through the
crack under the door during the night.
So. the last finishing touches having
been put upon his toilet, and Angy
having made ready by lamplight fol-
her own trip, even before the old man
was awake there seemed nothing left
to be done until the breakfast bel
should ring.
Abe sat down, and looking hard al
his open carpetbag wondered audibly
II they had "everythin' in" The last
time they two had packed Abe's ward
robe for visit to Bleak Hill had beer
many years ago, when Samuel Darby
though somewhat Abe's junior, was
keeper Of the life-saving station, anC
Abe was to be gone for whole sea
sons duty. Then all of his posses
sions had been slowed in long, Dol
ster-like canvas bag for the shor
voyage.
Both Angy and her husband recalled
that time now-the occasion of thei
first, and almost Of their last, rea
separation.
"A weekll pass in no time" mur
INJURED Angy very quickly. with a catcl
in her voice. "LoOkin' ahead, though
