"The Winning of Sally Temple"

"The Winning of Sally Temple" ="
which the Grand announces as its
offering for Wednesday, is costume
drama of the period when the noble
men of old England wore knee
breeches and swords at their hips,
and, if the novelist and playwright
are to be believed, either spent their
time gambling or making violent love
to maids of lowly station-provlded
they owned pretty face. In the
Lasky screen version of the story,
Fanny Ward appears as Sally Temple,
an actress of much beauty and vlr-
tue, belonging to Drury Lane theatre,
who resides in Pump Lane and plays
Lady Bountiful to the poor of the
neighborhood.
Events so work out that Sally is
prevailed upon to impersonate a GER
tain Lady Mamela, the ward of Lord
Romsey, reckless gentleman, who
falls in love with Sally at first sight,
but is only able to win her after he
has disguised himself as a common
workman and saved his ward from
SSupPoseu udllSti dI Ine Hdiido VI eite
Duke of Chatto. Although written in
the spirit of ardent romance, THE
Winning of Sally Temple makes
good entertainment, even in this real
istlc age. 1t has the important merit
OF never tagging in its action, ano
there is continual shifting of scene
and sufficient change in situation tt
mold the attention to the finish.
The success of the picture is great
y assisted by the manner of its pro
auction. The settings bring the Lon
oon of ITO before one most vividly
ana the many elaborate interiors ane
exterlors, also the scenes from hum
PIE life, have been reproduced to thu
last detail.

VOTES FOR WOMEN.
Southern States Woman Suffrage
Conference.
Women Wireless Operators.
AIT Camp Street, New Orleans.

Fifty women are studying to be
wireless operators. Miss Bonsall of
Philadelphia has become so efficient
that she has set up her own appara-
tus, and helped to wire the table used
by the students of the class. To re-
ceive license woman must be able
to take and send at least five words
per minute. In the event of war,
these women will be fitted to take the
place of men who have been sent to
the front. In common justice, the
government should permit them to
take places at the ballot box if these
women are competent to discharge
the duties requiring much more in
telligence than the franchise exacts
from men. With all sex lines abolish
ed in education and economics, it is
an anachronism to maintain sex lines
at the voting booth. Justice, common
Justice, is all women ask.

Glitter Truth. -

The heroine of Bitter Truth, "
which comes to the Grand Tuesday,
is a girl of the slums, the daughter
of a thief. She is unjustly sent to
prison, and, on her release, devotes
herself to seeking revenge on the
Judge who sentenced her. She be-
comes an inmate of the judges house
and is just about to assist his polltl-
cal enemies in making him the victim
Of a scandal when the man who has
always loved be" Icceeds in arouslng
her better nature.
Virginia Pearson acts the part OF
Anne, the girl who never had a
chance to go straight, with the
amount of fervid theatricalism de-
manded in plays of this nature. AS
vampire she looks fetching and
spreads her net for the undoing of
the judge in quite the Theda Bara
fashion.

These are twin evils. Persons suf-

troubled with constipation. MRS.

that when she first moved to Mattoen
she was a great sufferer from lndl-

HOW TO DISPLAY FLAG.
Mark of Disrespect to Fly Coiors
Through the Night.

Here are the correct ways to dis
play the United States flag:
The. flag should be raised at sun
rise, or after; never before.
The flag must be lowered at sum
set. 1t is mark of disrespect to fly
the flag through the night.
When the flag is hung against a
wall, the blue field should be in the
upper left-hand corner if the stripes
are horizontal, Or in the upper right
hand corner if the stripes are per-
pendicular.
Bunting, for decorations, should be
placed with the red at the top, white
below and blue at the bottom.
A flag used as a street banner
should be hung across the street at
an equal distance between curbs.
United States laws forbid the use of
the flag in registered trade marks or
for advertising purposes.
In no case should the flag be al
lowed to touch the ground.
A flag reversed, with the blue field
down, is sign of distress.
To display the flag at half mast, IN
case of national mourning or other
calamity, the proper way is to raise it
to the top then lower it little. Be
fore it is lowered, it is proper to raise
the flag first to the top.
On the death of president, the
flag should be displayed only one day
at half mast, according to regulation
The flag is at half mast only half 8
day on memorial day. At midday, the
flag is raised to the top of the staff
where it remains until sunsets
June IA, the anniversary of the
adoption of the flag, is. flag day.

HIGH SCHOOLS INSPECTED.
East Ascension Institutions Doing
Good Work Generally.

The following paragraphs relating
to Ascension schools are quoted from
the report of Chas. F. Trudeau, as
sistant high school Inspector, as
published in the current bulletin of
the State Department of Education:
Oak Grove Agricultural School,
This building and its equipment
have been described in previous re-
port. No material changes have taken
place in either since the publication
of this report. About three-fourths
of the classroom work was found to
be satisfactory, the other part was
only fairly good. In the domestic
economy department, however, We
found everyone busy and interested.
We were impressed with the fact that
the girls in this department are not
satisfied with the mere doing of the
various tasks assigned them by the
teacher, but they wish to know the
reason underlying the doing. They
are getting at the philosophy of this
work. This, to US, was very gratlty-
ing, for therein lies the attraction
and the real value of this kind of
work. Almost anybody can prepare
meal consisting of four or more
dishes Tor could before August,
1914). But, without such training
as is offered by scientific study of
foods, their composition, their nutri-
tive value, the readiness with which
they are digested, the best methods
of preparing and cooking them, and,
at the same time, an accurate knowl-
edge of the various needs of the hu-
man body, especially under varying
conditions of strength, health, work,
etc, it is almost impossible to act In
telligently in such an important mat
ter. Our departments of domestic
science will be worth their weight IN
gold when they teach the community
how to prolong human.--.,fe through
proper eating, how Go release the
pressure on the family purse by
judicious selection of foods, and how
to increase the sum total of human
happiness by teaching how not to
cook those various things which are
splee1l-producing and blues-generat-
| ing. The agricultural work is pro-
crossing satisfactorily. The principal,
who is deeply interested in his work,
has large field for experimental
work, herd of highly bred hogs, and
sixteen-hand two-year-old mule colt
that neither Kentucky nor Tennessee
can beat. The high school enroll
ment is twenty-six; that of the grades,
1875. Three teachers do the high.
school work; three, the elementary
work. We are of the opinion that
some changes should be made in the
personnel Of the faculty for next SEES
sion, and that at least one more
'Iteaeher should be added to the pres
