There 10 perhaps such thing as be-
ing too successful. says the Bar Har-
Dor correspondent Of the Bangor News.
At least that was the experience at the
baby show held Wednesday afternoon,
and as q result Of being swamped with
babies so that it was impossible. to
make decisions that would be fair ana
satisfactory in the time allowed, and
was decided to call off the awarding
of ribbons and prizes altogether. and
postpone that till next year. when 1t
is planned to hold three-days show,
q day for each class. There were ba-
biss there by the hundred, and in two
hours and a half 1t was utterly impos-
sible for the judges to make an ade-
auate decision. The high order Of all
the babies from a physical standpoint
was commented upon by the doctors
and nurses who were present, and 1t
is evident that the race as represented
by Bar Harbor additions is not deciin-
ing In quality. Weights and measures
Of the children, with special mention
Of the children who conformed most
closely to the standards Of weight and
measures were given, and cards con-
tanning the same may be had by the
parents calling at the Y. w. c. A.
Next year it is planned to hold the
show on a larger scale, and 1t is felt
that it will be fully as successful as
this years exhibition.

To relieve the paper situation for
the great newspapers throughout the
country, print paper is now given the
same classification as perishable goods.
This order has greatly increased the
tense situation that for time showed
every indication Of shutting down the
plants of the news papers and maya
zines. Some Of the larger daily papers
were obliged to cut down the size OF
their issues. There is such a demand
for paper that it is quite impossible for
the larger publications to get an ade-
quate supply on hand to tide them over
any unusual situation that might arise.
The outlook for the future Is most
promising. The railroads in Maine are
doing all within their power to Keep
shipments on the move and no en-
bareos are in force except on cars con-
signed to points on the New York. New
Haven and Hartford.

Blue Ribbon Feature
at Odeon Theater

The blue ribbon feature, Fathers
Of Men," which comes to the Odeon
tomorrow and Tuesday in addition to
Billie Burke in the sixteenth chapter
Of "Gloria's Romance" Is a series of
thrilling events.
When Naomi Childers, a popular
vitagraph star. who shares honors
with Robert Edeson. received her
script she found it called for a fall
down a steep cliff while she was rid
ing on the back of a sled with little
Bobby Connolly. This scene could not
be done away with and neither could
1t be faxed" in any way.
As the company jourpeyed to the
location where the exterior scenes
were to be filmed. both Director Hum
phreys and Miss Childers discussed
some possible subtitution for this
scene which was not looked forward
to by any member OF the company.
When no satisfactory way was con-
ceived, Miss Childers decided to have
the original plan used and agreed to
subject herself to the fall.
The day for the scene dawned ex.

tremely raw ana cold and the COM
pany journeyed to the particular To-
cation which had been chosen.
1t would have been impossible TO
rehearse this scene owing to the great
danger involved so 1t was decided to
take 1t Immediately. When the cam
era began to grind. Miss Childers gave
the signal to the dogs and away they
ran, over the snow which the drizzly
rain of the night before had covered
with a thin sheet of ice.
Just as they reached the top OF the
incline where the fall was to have
taken place Miss Childers slipped
when jumping on the rear of the
sleigh, with the result that she was
dragged down the entire slope. the
sleigh overturning with little Bobby.
owing to the fact that she was unable
to drive the dogs in a straight line.
When the director and camera-man
reached the spot where they had fall
len they found both Bobby and Miss
Childers bruised In several places and
suffering severely from the shock.
For this reason the rescue scene
which was to have followed had to be
deferred until later date and the
players fastened back to the hotel.
The fall in the finished picture is
all that one could desire and every
audience Is sure to marvel at Miss
Childer's daring in undertaking such
a risky scene.

About twelve months ago she was a

Then John Emerson. the noted &C

Bessie Love was given, in that play,

Ramona" Sets
New Standard For
Motion Pictures

1t has always been the effort OF
producers Of either the silent or spok-
en- drama to produce an effect SO
novel and extreme as to Immediately
win the interest of their audiences.
In the productions of the past few
years. evidences are found of this
which only prove that the public ID
becoming thoroughly aroused and
more critical of the attractions they
wish to see.
With the musical attractions, ideas
were always put forth to startle and
thus cause awakened interest: the
drama has lately been verging on the
suggestive and plays have been pro-
duced that would have shocked the
senses but few years ago; and the
motion picture has found 1t necessary
to secure big stars of the drama to
make their pictures successful.
A change has come over the public
and tho attractions must now neces-
sarily change. Thoroughly aroused
and very critical. the public Is de-

Edmund Breese
Comes to Colonial
For Two-Day Visi,

Playgoers everywhere have come to
regard Edmund Breese as one OF ne
truly great actors OF the stage. His
very name Is sufficient in most in
stances TO crowd whatever theator he
happens to visit. But at the Colonial
tomorrow he will essay a role some
what different from those he has pre-
scented in the past. In The Weakness
OF Strength" which comes to the CO.
lonial. for a two-day stay, beginning
tomorrow. Mr.. Breese will portray a
character that was written for MIN.
The Metro Pictures Corporation
through which the picture play is re-
leased, announces that this Is one OF
the greatest pictures ever presented
under It's trademark and makes the
further statement that critics announce
this as Mr.. Breese's greatest achieve
ment Not since he startled all OF
America as Bill Sykes in the revival
OF "Oliver Twist" say those who have
witnessed showings of The Weakness
OF Strength" has Edmund Breese ever
approached his performance IN this
virile and tense drama which has 10

posedly physically and mentally

not rely entirely upon the drawing
powers OF Edmund Breese, great as
they admittedly are. for the Colonial
will also offer tomorrow and Tuesday
the premier OF all funmakers, Charley
Chaplin in his latest comedy release.

been the reviewers over this latest
Chaplin success that a mere press
agent quails at repeating all OF the
lavish expressions visited upon It. Suf-
Ace 1t to say that 1t will prove Chaplin
at his very funniest which Is quite
enough for any old kind of an audi
ence The double bill should fill the

A Good Man and a Good Platform

New Jersey Republicans are to pick
men to run for United States Senator
and for Governor, next November.
State Senator Walter E. Edge of At
lantic County, who has made a strong
record in the Legislature, as an econ
omist, as a champion of the workmen's
compensation law, and as a fighter for
the consolidation of State departments,
is out in the open for Governor. He
says he hopes to keep up the struggle
Until the State of New jerseys
SIS, 900, 900 annual business shall be
conducted from a business mans stand
point, with the Governor the respons-
ible business manager of the State,
rather than the political leader of his
party.
This is a good platform fer a candidate
in any State. If Franklin Murphy of
Newark, with all North Jersey behind
him, is to be chosen for United States
Senator, Essex County can hardly
claim the gubernatorial nomination for
State Senator Austen Colgate. Hence
the Murphy men are inclined to accept
Edge for geographical reasons Onthe
other hand, there is a natural alliance
between former Governor Stokes, Of
South Jersey. who is Murphy's rival,
and the Colgate men in Essex. A hot
fight at the primaries is likely. AS for
the New Jersey Democrats, they may
have to support MARITIME for reelection
to the Senate, and Otto H. Wittpenn,
of Hudson, is possibly to run for Gov
ernor, but the situation on that side of
the fence has not clarified itself yet.
The State is always close and uncertain
on local issues.-Brooklyn Eagle.
