AS a newspaper the Great
Falls Tribune is about all
that could be desired, COM
ing out of a young and some
what provincial Western
city. Where the Tribune
leaves itself open to censure
and mild ridicule is the ADAM
don and recklessneSs with
which it tackles big and pro-
found questions - actually
Jumping in where learned
savants and sociologists fear
to tread. The other day the
Tribune, with characteristic
energy, vigor and cock-sure-
ness, took up the question of
the action of that Chicago
doctor who refused to per-
form an operation on a sub
normal infant. The Tribune
brushed aside all humanitar-
ian and sociological phases Of
the question and laid on like
a coal HEAVIER, coming with
a bound to the conclusion
that since millions of full
grown men are throwing
away their lives each day, on
battlehelds and elsewhere,
and since there is so much
infant mortality that cannot
be checked, there is no use
talking about this particular
case-it only provokes a lot
of useless discussion without
solving anything. We make
bold to venture the opinion,
Notwithstanding the Tri-
bune's fnality, that this case
may, as a matter of creating
tendencies or limitations in

the Chicago physician into

"A Fool

An Adaptation From Rud'

Poem
"7he Vampire"
lIlIIlHhnIll


EdWard Jose, former lead
ing man with Sarah Bern
hardt, portrays in a mastery
manner the Fool who for
sakes family and friends for
a soulless, sensual creature in
the guise of a beautiful
woman.
Theda Bara, leading wom-
an at the Theatre Antoine,
Paris, has been cast as the
Vampire one of the most
f%acinating, though revolving
female characters ever Gre
ated. Miss Barals interpre-
tation is remarkable for in
tense dramatic realism, while
her wonderfully seductive
beauty serves to enhance the
illusion created by her art.
Her gowns in this produc-
ton were designed by the
leading costumers of hel
