The Immigrant. -

Valeska Suratt appears in the
Jesse L Lasky Feature Play Com
pany production, 1.-The Immi-
grant," in which she will make
her debut as a star on the Para
mount Program.
Few American actresses are so
we'll known as Miss Suratt. For
her first Lasky production she has
been provided with role that is
something entirely different from
the kind of part with which Mise
Suratt in the past has been iden-
tilted
Miss Surratt appears in 1.-THE
Immigrant" as young peasant
woman from a foreign land who
comes to America and fights and
wins her way to success. Con-
siderables of the story happens
on the transcontinental liner on
board which MAsha Miss Suratt)
and her country.men and country
women are seen as steerage pas.
sengers. There is a detailed mar
rative of the trials and tribuIa-
lions of the newly arrived foreign
er and the hardships which sne
undergoes and the simple happi-
ness she obtains from the associa-
ton with her own alien people,
Marion Fairfax who wrote "The
Immigrant" has developed
strong. virile drama, full of sym.
pathetic appeal.
Among those who appear in
support of Miss Suratt are Thomas
Meighan, theodore Roberts. Hal

EFFICIENCY.

,EFFICIENCY.-I am "sore" about
our namby- PANTY principles on gen.
eral topics. Why is it that good
looking crook of about Is years of
age gets more sympathy than one
who doesn't look so angelic? Why
do the clubwomen butt in where a
six-foot policeman needs to stand?
Why is it that no one has license
to carry a revolver but the gunman?
1t seems to me that if every man
carried a gun there would be more
wholesome respect on the part of the
crooks.
At school today 1 heard a talk on
German efficiency. Why is it that
the Germans are efficient? Do they
let 10 and 12-year-old kids tell their
teachers what to do? They have
man teachers.
While I'm at it, there are two girls
who teach that l would like to tell
you about. They may not be the
typical Chicago school teachers, but
they are Chicago school teachers.
One was recently married, but is still
teaching and intends to keep on
teaching, although her husband
earns considerably more than is
needed to support them. In the Har-
rison-Sweitzer campaign, in talking
of one of the candidates, she said:
"That pie-faced boob put my fathers
business on the bum" Her father
drove an auto in the old redight |
district.
The other sister is young and
light-headed She starts out on auto |
rides at II o'clock nights. She OBJ |

influence after failing about three |
times at normal school and taking |
three years to make a two-year
course. But she teaches school

PLEA FOR CHILDHOOD. HI

many readers are willing to get to-
gether and form a fighting organiza-
ton for the benefit of childhood?
Millions of little children are suf-
fering. Their cry is for chance to
live, while we look on, apparently,
heartless, doing nothing to assist
their helplessness or turn sorrow into
joy.
Come forth, you who would have a
better world. Those of us who have
no funds to give can donate our serv-
ice. Let us make the child question
the real issue of the hour.
Why do we allow the innocent
ones to suffer. Surely there are
mountains of food and clothes on
earth for them all Let us take a
thousand faded faces, bring them to
the doors of those who live in man
sions and ask them to assist us to
save life. We do not need funds to
organize this union. Action counts.
Who is willing to act? - A ChiId's
Friend.

trainmen can sneak in and get con-
tracts which the switchmen ought to
