"Traffic in Souls.
Pleases HippP Patrons

Jack Lewis, as "the boy" in Traffic
in Souls" at the Hippodrome, speaks
volumes for the versatility of that &C.
tor. Surrounded by such talent as
Edna Grandin, Robert Hyatt, Edwin
Kerr and Pauline LIE Roy he has made
out OF an otherwise difficult play an
easy, smooth entertainment both in.
structive and pleasing.
Traffic in Souls will be staged to.
night and tomorrow night besides a
matinee Saturday afternoon.
The play received good support last
night and those who were greatly i'm.
pressed by the lesson it teaches have
told their friends and also many wish
to see 1t again. 1t is the best that
Lewis has so far produced in Fairmont
and 1t is by long odds the best acted.

Evening Chat
There must bs something about
1rge crowds, some strange psyche
al torca that changea fheIn ature


srge crowds, some strange psyche
eal force that changes the nature
those who are unused to mixing
With their fellow men and women In
jsuch large numbers. It is somewhat
strange but very true that practically
all Of the gate keepers at all fairs or
~expositions Of that nature are pos
Isessed OF a most insulting and rude
manner as II they regarded every visi-
tor as common enemy who desired
above every thing else to cheat the as
sociation.
This was especially noticeable at
the Fatrmont Fair yesterday and hun
dredsY OF honest well meaning visitors
70 the Fair who desired to pay their
share of everything, had the entire
day spoiled and were made indignant
BY the 1diotic %intolerable actions OF
soine Of the illbred thick.headed gate
keepers. Why cannot gate keepers
be. obtained who are equipped with or
binary human intelligence?
AtSreal race meetings where crowds
of 40 to so thousand persons attend
every day for several weeks, the gate
keepers and all OF the officials are
courteous and reasonable, working On
the principle that to please their pa
tronsStsi the object Of the affair. Thus
rather than argue with a visitor or
treat him like a thief they attempt OF
make every one feel welcome and pre-
sumo that he has honest intentions.
At all small county Fairs however,
throughout the entire country. the
men on the gates invariably assume
the attitude of superior authority and
are possessed Of IN intolerant insult.
ing manner that is chiefly responsible
for the small crowds that are SO fire.
Quently mentioned.
One would think that Fair officials
who are evidently striving to please
the public and who depend upon the
public for their patronage would con.
slider this matter which is one of the
greatest Importance to all other enter.
prises that depend on public patron.

"A suit like the blue you can wear

said. 10f course the brown is good

Eunice Morgan looked at the brown
suit as it was reflected in the mirror;
her delicate brows were drawn togeth

the last words caught her attention
1t suddenly seemed to her that all her

dollars would have given her the JOY

against the constant fret, she declared
to herself that for once she would have

she had to do without.
"Well?" Sally Pennock inquired.
Eunice had taken Sally along for NOR
al support-which, being interpreted,
meant to tell her that the cheaper
thing was the most becoming. Eunice
drew long breath.
"Oh, l suppose I'm going to be wise"
she said. "and hate being wise"
Brown is always becoming to you. "
Sally declared Loyalty. Il think you'll

But when 1t came home Eunice did

Nsneat Gun.

The California. Mississippi and Idaho
are TO be armed with a new type Of
14-inch gun. which will show q con.
siderable increase of power over the
45.caJiber gun. The new piece Is six
feet longer in the bore than the 45.
caliber 14-inch, and It's velocity and
energy have been greatly increased.
the muzzle energy being something
over 70,000,foot tons.
Rear Adnaral Strauss, chief OF ord
nance. states that these new guns are
capable OF penetrating the heaviest
side armor at oblique impact at the
greatest effective battle range. II 10
gratifying to learn that the new type
oil 16.inch, 45-callber gun built at the
Washington gun factory, has fulfilled
the highest expectations. and that the
bureau believes Il TO be as powerful a
gun as any In existence today.

Alabama Coal.

The earliest known record of tho ex.
istence OF coal in Alabama was made
in 1884, but the first statement of pro
duction in the state Is contained in the
United States census report for 1910,
in which the amount mined is given az
946 tons. The mines OF Alabama were
probably worked to considerable ex,
tent during the Civil war, but there are
no specific records until 1870, for
which the United States census re.
ports a production OF 1000 tons. The
development of the present great In.
dustry really began IN 1881 and 1889,
when attention was directed to the
large iron deposits near the city of
Birmingham. In 1914, according to
the United States geological survey,
the production was 15,593,422 tons.

Professional Harvard awoke the 9th
er morning TO find itself in the lime
light and many a professor who
dropped into peaceful slumber the
night before is scratching his head
2erVouBly and asking what can DO
done, remarks the Boston Traveller.
Two rather frisky Harvard under
graduates had taken 1t into their
heads to give the members Of
the Harvard faculty a bad three or
four days. 30 Elmer Ellsworth HagleF,
Jr,, spent his leisure moments IN a
month by drawing over2ealous like
nesses OF some Of the colleges most
revered professors, and prefacing
each sketch with bit OF satire. Rob
ert @. Bacon, '16, who received his
degree In midyear. published and copy.
righted the book, which went on sale
to a rushing business.
Hagler has been I'm the eye of the
Harvard college Office before, for his
clean-cut editorials in the Crimson,
