THE NEGLECTED WIFE"
 IS NOVELTY PRODUCTION

The Neglected Wife, Pathe's new serial, showing at the Odeon each Wednesday. Is a novelty among such productions. Dealing with an intimate problem of every day life in so im- partial a manner that sympathy will be distributed among all of the prin- cipal characters, 1t is a brilliant ex- position of the interplay of warning souls. Where other serials have de- pended on startling plot developments, interest in this production centers ab- sorbingly in the emotions of Horace and Mary Kennedy. Margaret Warner and Frank Norwood, leading inexor- ably through many soul searching ex- periences to the last great climax
 The action of the story moves for ward swiftly by means of a diver sity of gripping scenes. but through out there is evidence of an intention to make these scenes subserve and build up the enthralling inner drama.
 AS Margaret Warner, "the woman alone" Ruth Roland has one of the biggest parts of her career. char acter demanding rare sublety of art As far removed as possible from the conventional stage vampire, a sturdy, courageous, brilliant girl caught up in the mesh of circumstances. she proves that the problem of marital unhappiness Is not all one-sided nor forever to be solved by conventional precepts.
 It will be interesting to note the division of sympathy as the serial progresses-what classes of persons will sympathize with "the neglected wife" who will blame her for her own condition, who will condone the acts of "the woman alone" and who will not. who will find excuses for the husband and who will be drawn to one of Norwood's type
 Robert Warwick and Gail Kane make their last appearance as CO., stars in "The False Friend" to be published June Il. They have worked together very effectively in num- Der of World photodramas. notably lieved with entire confidence that in The False Friend" both stars are seen at considerably better advantage than at any previous time.

"FRECKLES" FEATURE
 AT THE COLONIAL
Louise Huff and Jack Pickford in Screen Version of Popular
 Novel

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday the Colonial offers as super attraction Louise Huff and Jack Pckford in "Freckles.''
 Gene Stratton Porter's novel proved so popular that they made it into a play, and the play pleased so many people that they put it on the screen. The screen version is going to uphold the other means of presentation, for never has Jack Pickford or Louise Huff had more pleasing vehicle. The story deals with a little waif in an orphanage who was the butt of all he jokes and petty but none the less genuine cruelties which children practice. And the girl was The Angel Freckles met her in the lumber swamp where he had been given the perilous position of watchman. Despite the in- genuous and wistful tone of the play, it Is damned with action and thrills and laughs.

4ENL|GHTEN THY DAUGHTER 7 STRAND
This Interest Compelling Picture Will Be at the
 Strand All Week

The most powerful. interest-compelling photo drama of it's kind, 'Enlighten Thy Daughter" Is coming to the Strand the atre today for one week. This is the big Ivan feature which packed the Park the atre. New York, at every performance for four weeks, and made necessary force of police reserves to keep in check the crowds clamoring for admittance. The wonderfully dramatic manner in which the theme of the play, the fatal result of the criminal negligence of careless, sport loving mother, is brought out, cannot fail to hold its audience spell bound. The cast Is one of superlatlve excellence, and the moral of the play drives home a great truth to every par ent who witnesses this wonderful exen- plification of the need of more knowledge for youth on topics of vital importance.

COAL ECONOMY IS
 NECESSARY ID WIN
 GREAT STRUGGLE

Washington, May e.-(Special.)-If the consumers of the United States, for the period of the war follow the suggestions Of those who are preparing this nation for it's greatest national emergency. they will be transformed in few years from the most extravagant to the most eco nomical people in the world.
 When the experts point out methods in which the resources of the country may be preserved, they indicate, at the same time, that which is really fact that the average American spends his money in a manner which borders on the criminal.
 Francis S. Peabody, chairman of the national coal board, that of which Erskine Ramsay of Birmingham is a member, declares in statement issued today that the pound of coal which the average citizen saves may contain the gasp of energy capable of firing the shell which will mean victory rather than defeat for American arms
 He advocates several departures from American custom:
 The maintenance in the homes or tenn perature of 60 rather than 70 degrees. Less cooking and lighting with strict attention paid to turning off gas and electricity when duties are performed. Turning the clocks back in order that people may be in bed one hour sooner thus preserving coal-source of gas and electricity.
 The abandonment during the period of the war of electric light display ad- vertising.
 He declares that England by turning the clocks back one hour, saved in one year 309,000 tons of coal. It is his contention that Amersca can save a great deal more by the adherence to this single one of his suggestions. If economy is practiced at home, and night permitted to be night rather than unnat- ural day, he amount of coal which would be saved he declares, could not be properly estimated
 MT. Peabody in his statement states that it is the opinion of coal producers that the present Shortage" and high prices are due to the extravaganza of the American people, and the fear and selfishness of those who are buying and storing against the necessity of tomor- row He declares that no country has such an overabundance of coal as Amer lea, but that American extravaganza pre- vents normal production and distribu- tion

Travel in War Time

S.
 This summers travellers may find simple substitutes for more costly arr ticles on the menus everywhere, for undoubtedly many hostelries will aid in conserving the food supply; they may find accomm modations less pre- tentious. sleeping cars less available and even train service interrupted, particularly if the movement of troops assumes large proportions They will find station gardens and parks along the Northern Pacific railway. at least, turned into vegetable gardens Un- doubtedly. in view of the war meas ures necessary to augment the na- tion's food supply, travellers will find as great satisfaction this year in veg etable gardens as in flower beds. As duty to the country. 1t will be the travellers part to bear cheerfully any inconveniences that may be encount- cred on the summer outing So far hardships have scarcely been felt, but If the war continues for any length of time, rich and poor alike will be tast- ing the discomforts of war times.
