RIVER ROAD NOTES

The greater part of our news this
week is concerning the boys of Bat
terry B, in all of whom we are more
or less interested and in two especial
ly, Anders Christensen and Grin Bein-
hart. They each anticipate transfer
to North Carolina with pleasure. They
have much praise for their officers
who are rigid in discipline during drill

experiences they have had.

JOHN HART rs A LITTLE DULL.

There is a good deal of surprise i'll
the Potato Hill neighborhood because
John Hart has been elected president
of bank in town, for, while it is gen
orally agreed that Mr.. Hart is a good
man, he is not a genius. We have sew
eral geniuses in the neighborhood who
write for the town paper, or speak
quite we'll at public meetings; but John
Hart is a dull, quiet man who takes
everything as it comes and gets a lit
tie the best of it.
| have been talking to the neighbors
about the new president, and they ali
admit he is safe man; if Mr.. Hart
is invited to attend bankers conven-
ton in the city, people know he will
return home with nearly all the money
he took with him; he will not be rob-
bed, and pushed off the viaduct or into
the river.
The more people talk about John
Hart, the new president of the bank,

Now, this matter of moving the
clock ahead deserves more seriousness
and less frivolity than it is receiving.
Just think of the possibilities of this
line Of activity For instance, we have
almost gone through a hard winter.
How nice it would be now to pass a
law and move the months ahead six
times SO that June would fall around
the first of the present year and of
course May would come in what is
now December, and July in February.
Wouldn't you like to have strawberries
at Christmas? Then pass a law. In
the regular summer time we could
pass another law moving things back
again and thus balmy atmosphere
would be perpetual. Then, besides, we
do something never before achieved
earn return on our legislators.
Let's pass a law by all means and then
think UP some more things!

OF NEXT WEEK
AT THE ID PICTURE SHOWS
AT THE IMPERIAL.

The bill at the Imperial offers ex-
cellent entertainment for theatergo-
ers during the coming week, every
number illustrated on the boards be-
ing n of excellent production and
faithful po~rtraiture. Theda Bara
opens the week in The Tiger Wom-
an" wherein she pursues a theme
and setting to which she is particu-
larly fitted by her style of beauty
and natural temperament. This
woman's art makes real the mad pur-
suit of happiness for herself alone,
regardless of the happiness or lives
of her hapless victims. In The Til
ger Woman" the Russian princess be-
trays her traitorous husband to the
Russian police, flees with another,
and ends by being compelled by a
blackmailing servant to take her own
life.
