THE POSSIBLE PEACE. By Roland Hug
ms. New York City. The Century Co. $l.25
This book is a penetrating study OF
world politics. 1t combines cool and
disillusioning analysis of the interna-
tional situation with an ardent con-
viction that permanent peace is the
goal toward which mankind should
strive. The book is neither pro-ally or
pro-German. The writer is not only
a pacihst but warm advocate Of pre-
paredness.
FAMOUS SCULPTURE. By Charles L.
Barstow. New York City The Century
Company. $500.
After a preliminary chapter on
How a Statue Is Made" the author
traces the story of sculpture through
the Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Medic
val, Renaissance and Modern (classi-
cal, romantic and realistic) schools,
He outlines the principal classic
myths embodied in Greek sculpture;
he characterize the individual work
of the chief sculptors OF the world,
with brief biographies in each case,
and wherever possible describes the
social and historical conditions out of
which they arose. The book contains
enough anecdotal matter to maintain
the interest of younger readers, and
is particularly full in its treatment OF
outstanding individual works.

the needs of the everyday user of

those pertaining to the proper forms

RANEY PLANS To
ANNOUNCE STATE
ITINERARY SOON
CHAIRMAN OF THE STATE Ex-
ECUTIVE COMMITTEE HOPES
TO MAKE PUBLIC HIS DATES
FOR THE CANDIDATES.

An itinerary for candidates for
state offices will be announced next
week. George P. Raney, chairman
of the state Democratic committee
and the state campaign committee, is
mapping out a circuit that will cover
practically the entire state. Dates
will be arranged for appearance of
the candidates on the platform at the
joint meetings under the state com
mittee's auspices. The first of these
will probably be between April z and
April 10.
The itinerary will be double one
in fact, with gubernatorial aspirants
speaking from the same platform one
night in each town on the list, and
senatorial candidates at another
meeting. Candidates for other state
offices will be given a chance to pre-
sent their claims at these meetings.
The list of positions will be divided,
a part to be included at the guber-
material meetings and a part at
those at which the candidates for
United States senator appear. In this
way two meetings at each place will
bring all the candidates availing
themselves of the privilege before the
voters of the state.
Mr.. Raney makes the statement
that he has heard from the various
candidates and the concensus of opin-
ion favors two divisions and meeting
tall over the state. The itinerary it.
self was decided upon at the meeting
of the state committee. At that time
it was provided that a candidate wish
ing to avail himself of the privilege
must appear in person, and cannot
ask some other to speak for him.

A lamentable accident occurred at
Bagdad last Friday, when the thirteen
ycar-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. F..
Brantley accidentally shot and killed
himself. 1t seems that the lad and his
little fve-year-old brother had gone
out in boat with the shotgun to
shoot didappers. In the course of
their trip, the. gun was laid down in
the boat, and either from the rocking
of the boat or from some Other UNI
known cause it was later discharged,
the charge of shot entering the boys
right side just below the arm, a few
scattering shot striking in the face
and head.
The wound was so bad that the lad

colin Williams, the popular Broadway
star, plays the lead in this picture,
and is supported by cast Of brilliant
players. There are many interesting
scenes in every one Of the FIVE acts
composing this feature, not the least
interesting of which are scenes Of
convict life which were photographed
in the penal camp near Jacksonville,
Fla. "The Idol Of the Stage" is a
very human document. It is worth
seeing, for there are many things por-
trayed which will give food for
thought. Besides this feature there
will be a Universal feature, with
Grace Cunard, "Her Sisters Sin"
Consistent with the policy pursued
by the management Of the Bonita for
nearly a year, there will be no adj
vance in the price of admission, which
will be, as ever, 10 cents for adults
and IS cents for children.

Theda Bara ID Isis Tomorrow.

Theda Bara, vampire, star of the
William Fox production, "Gold and
the Woman" recently entertained the
members of her Sunday school class
at a theater party at the New York
Hippodrome. The children were ac-
companied by Miss Bara and two of
the mothers. Following the matinee
performance there was party in
Miss Bara's apartments, each of the
little guests being presented with a
book of Biblical quotations, a box of
candy and Miss Bara's photograph.
Miss Bara entertains the class at
least once each winter. In the sum
mer she entertains the children at
least twice at her Long Island bunga-
low. The trip is made by automobile
