Crowded to Full Capacity

Gettysburg, Pa. Sept. 21. With
TOUR new professors and several new

work, while large freshman class
enters, many of the new students COM
ing from Harrisburg. 1t is likely that
the enrolment will be so large that
even with the erection of the new pre-
paratory building. which allows the old
building to be turned into a dormitory
for the college men, there will not be
room enough to house all of the
students.

varied nature. From Tampa to Plant
City it is brick. From Plant City to
Lakeland in fairly good condition;
from Lakeland to Barlow the road is
rather rough; from Barlow to Arcadia
about one-half of the road is in pretty
good shape, the balance is now being
worked upon, but is not heavy travel.
From Arcadia to Punta Gorda I under
stand the road is in real good condi-
ton most Of the way with probably
only two or three miles unfinished, and
the road from Punta Gorda to Olga
is all graded, but is not hard surfaced
at this time; from Olga to Fort Myers
they are using an old surfaced road,
which is rough The entire trip from
Tampa to Fort Myers can be made
without great inconvenience, although
portions cannot be considered in good
shape.
A contract was let only about two
weeks ago for the surfacing Of the
road from Fort Myers to Naples. I
do not believe it would be advisable.

The little boy across the street had at party the other day. He was told in advance that he was not to ex- pect the children to bring him gifts, that he was to give them things, favors, bonbons, etc, instead. To his parents delight, he smiled very sweetly and said, "Yes, l like to give people things. I think it's great fun''
 And he did indeed seem to heartily enjoy his guests pleasure at first. Then came a crucial test. One of the little guests had mislaid his favor, a whistle and Bruce, who had also drawn a whistle, was asked to give the guest his to take home and depend upon finding the lost favor for him. self.
 He Didn't Want to Give Them His
 Things.
 His smiles disappeared, his lip quivered, he clung tightly to his whis- tie. But, Bruce" he was reminded, you said you liked to give people things"
 Yes" he admitted; but I don't want to give them my own things
 One couldn't help laughing at the naivete of it. Yet, while one laughed, one thought, Even as you and I.'
 My little nephew wants to blow bubbles. At first hs mother objects, but, finding his heart passionately set upon it, yields. He blows bubbles for two minutes and then, when the little boy next door happens along with project to suggest, he throws his pipe down and forgets all about it. The worldly hope men set their
 hearts upon

Among the leaders on the screen program for the first half of the week at Keeneys, Green Stockings with Lillian Walker heading the cast and Jack the Ballroom Hero as played by Frank Daniels and a cap able company, will stand out prorI- inently. "Dimples'' Wilker is one of the Vitagraph company's most pop ular stars and in the screen inter- pretation of the celebrated comedy she has a part which is bound to bring her even closer to the motion picture devotees of the country while the film is on the circuit. Green Stockings' is a great play and ii makes a splendid photoplay produc- ton.
 Frank Daniels connection with any photoplay is sufficient in itself to in sure the success of the film. Con- sequently there is no occasion For any worry on the part of the pro- ducers of "Jack. the Ballroom Hero the play is one of the funniet vc- hicles provided for the famous conn edian since he succumbed to the lu,e of the 'movies." It is bound to meet with favor here.
 Thursday and Friday the Big Four feature will be found on the program. It presents Mary Fuller in Thrown to the Lions,' a powerful dra ina well adapted for the screen. For Thursday Friday and Saturday, the manage ment announces "Captain links ot the Horse Marines" and '"The Broken Promise,' two big attractions.
