as the brunette could possibly be- Why a woman should feel less deeply because she happens to have yellow hair instead of black hair is some thing that cannot understand.
 'As matter of fact all the great love affairs of history almost with out exception have blondes as the familiar figure, and it is certainly true that constancy is not the least of all romance.
 "Who was more constant to any love than Cleopatra was to Antony, and it is proven historical fact that one of her greatest charms to the Roman was the fact that she was a blonde in a brunette country.
 Helen of Troy, whose constancy to her lover, Paris, cost her life, her lovers life and the sovereignty of Ilium was a blonde; as also were Heloise, Rosemonde, Iseult and Pene- lope, wife of Odysseus, and nearly all of the women whose loves and lives are written in letters of immortal light upon the pages of human his- tOry."

Monday-De Wolf Hopper, the huge comedian, makes his screen debut in the Triangle version of Cervantes' "Don Quixote." Supported by an ex- cellent cast and playing part with such wealth of good material, it is needless to say that De Wolf Hopper never appeared to better advantage than in this screen play.
 Ford Sterlin, the popular Triangle comedian, is seen at his very funniest in the Triangle comedy, His Pride and Shame" In this 2,O00 feet of fun, thrills, excitement, ludicrously amusing situations and farcial eli maxes, is told a story that will keep everyone roaring with laughter when thev are not holding their breath in awe as some seemingly impossible stunt is performed.
 Tuesday-Henry Arthur Jones' great play, Saints and Sinners" in- troduces Peggy Hyland to American photoplay audiences. Are you a sin ner? You needn't necessarily be a deep-dyed, devoted pupil of satan to deserve this appellation. You need only be a weakling with no thought of actual sin other than an irresistible impulse toward self qualification to be registered under this head by Henry Arthur Jones.
 Miss Peggy Hyland, the favorite of the English stage, who has lately ar rived from England to appear in Famous Players productions, and who makes her premier American appear ance in this subject, went to Florida, where the exteriors of this drama were filmed under the direction of Jas. Kirkwood This well-known masterpiece, embossed by beautiful scenery and superb acting, will appear at the Best Tuesday.

THE TEXTILE DEPARTMENT
OF THE A. g. M. COLLEGE.

The Textile Department at the A. &
M. College is recognized by the United
States Government as one of the lead
ing textile schools in America. This
department which is a fully equipped
textile school has been selected by the
U. S. Government through the Office
Of Markets to make a number of i'm
portant tests on the five full grades of
cotton. These tests will be of great
importance to the cotton manufacturer
as they will determine the relative
amount of waste in each of the five full
grades, and will also embrace tests for
tensile strength, bleaching qualities,
Fete.
The work is directly under the
charge of Mr.. w. S. Dean who is a
graduate of the Textile Department
class of 1909. He is being assisted in
the work by other cotton men and by
student of the department.
The textile department was also
awarded for the past year the Student
Medal by the National Association of
Cotton MANUFACTURERS. This Asso-
citation is composed of the leading cot
ton manufacturers in America and the
awarding of this medal reflects credit
on this department.
In order to qualify for the medal the
textile department was required to
have a good equipment with instruc
ton of recognised standard; to have
not less than fifty students taking the
textile course and to have at least four
graduates. During the past year there
Iwere seventy-seven students registered
with seven gradutes. The medal is
awarded to the student having the
highest excellence in his studies and
work was won by Mr.. ]. H. Mason Of

DROP MIDDLE NAMES.

This is the day Of the two-cylinder
cognomen connoisseurs who have
looked over every name at Harvard
and inspected the persons to whom the
names belong. They learned that
some extremely nice persons have nc
middle names at all and seem to get
on rather we'll without them.
It's assumed that the ever growing
trend toward efficiency is to be blamed
for the dropping of oversize names
for it has long been understood that a
person with a two-ply title need not
be especially embarrassed about it. In
the course of O wealthy mans life it
means the writing OF about 10, 000, 900
useless words if he uses his middle
name on. checks and endorsements,
and these things have got to be con-
sidered.
The Porcelain Club at Harvard. the
most exclusive organizations of its
kind in the country, proves this year
the failing value of middle names.
There are Is members this year and
but five of them are burdened with
excessive nomenclature.
Of course George Washington and
Abraham Lincoln had no middle name
but his evidence is considered as
nothing at Harvard compared with the
fact that-Theodore Roosevelt hasn't.
That one fact is almost enough to
wreck the complicated title system at
the university.-New York Herald.
