ADJUSTMENTS
OPERA HOUSE
Constance Collier in Oliver Moroseo',
Great Film Feature 1.-THE Tongues o.
Men," this Afternoon and Evening.


Rev. DR.. Penfield Sturgis, Of FASH
ionable st. Martins in the Lane, finds
himself face to face with Jane Bartlett,
a grand opera prima donna whose
opera he has denounced on grounds of
morality, and who comes to his very
vestryroom to make him 'eat his ser
mon word for word"
Out of the encounter a strange ac-
quaintance develops, Jane Bartlett in
terested through vindictive reasons, the
rector through the challenge to his
church. She PREVAILS upon him to
visit the notorious opera, which but
deepens his previous convictions, but
meanwhile he discovers a surprising
bigness, a surprising humanity in the
woman herself; in the girls she is
quietly educating at her own expense;
in the hungry composers she good
heartedly feeds; in the downhearted
whose troubles she somehow always
has time for. Just as it is beginning to
dawn upon him that maybe he takes
himself a shade too seriously, word
comes that the Mayor has closed Ia
porah on the strength Of his own con-
demnatory sermon.
Repentant, Sturgis decides to apollo
gize in an open letter to the news
papers, at which his vestry and con-
gregation. already perturbed by the
ascendency of the Bartlett woman. are
up in arms. To preserve her dignity in
the face Of their humiliating attacks,
the boyishly chivalrous young rector
offers to marry her. and she accepts
him, thus at last making him "eat his
sermon word for word" as she had set
out to do.
But her vanity appeased, Jane Bart
lett, with characteristic bigheartedness,
proceeds to make peace between her
young rector and Georgine Darigal,
daughter of the rector emeritus and
formerly his fiancee, and the reconcile
alton assured Jane Bartlett gracefully

The rise of water on the Augusta dam
on account of the rain of Friday and
Saturday was not as great as might have
heen expected, partly, it is understood
because of the cold weather of Saturday
night stopping the flow of many brooks
which had during the day been running
full. The rise of water at noon Sunday
was nine inches. but at that hour it ap-
parently reached its maximum height

Just Paste Them On.

With the hot days comes the change
for the children from stockings to
socks, and the old problem arises as
to how these may be kept from slip
ping down upon the shoe. This is my
scheme, and it works we'll. Make a
good-siZed cone Of CASTLE or white
soap and keep the point soaking in a
bottle of hot water so that it is soft
and pliable. Holding the dry part,
paint a narrow ring Of the soft soap
around the child's leg at the height
the sock should reach, and press the
sock firmly to the leg. The soap will
dry quickly, stick as fast as mucilase,
and will not prove detrimental to
either the flesh or the fabric.

there is net foundation with II wide,

Spanish ilounce or a series of graded
ruflles, placed ut infrequcnt intervals.
Lace skirts aplcnty are being advised
by the dressmakcrs for women who
are looking for something newer tlian
chiffon and not rs thick as voile.
This movement has brought in
| gowns of black lace--the kind women
wore quarter of century ago. They
are made Of Chantilly, of CaIlot lace
and of the large figured silk, Spanish
lace. The latter is especially att:ac-
tive, as it comes in touch with a NUM-
ber of Spanish fashions which we have

He Wasn't sinnins..

Little Bobbie, six years old, had been
in the orphans home but few days
when the cook was baking pies. Watch
ing his opportunity, he stole one, and
hid himself away while eating it. Be-
ing missed, search soon found him
with part of the stolen goods in his
hands. He was taken to the superin-
tendent's Office to receive punishment
for his misdemeanor. When asked why
he stole the pie, he replied, why,
didn't you read at morning prayers
that man should not live by breed
alone" He was not punished.

air of solidity by the lavish applic:l-

One gown Of white tulle has six
panels outlined by old rose ribbon
reaching from bust to knees, passing
under folded belt of the tulle.
1t is evident that the American
dressmakers are determined to use up
all the ribbon that the mills can sup
ply during the summer. Whether it is
