WAR GIVES CHANGE TO
THE MIDDLE AGED MEN
Employers are Giving Preference 10
Men Who VIII Not be Called
on to Join Army.

CHICAGO, April 6.-War clouds
have resulted in giving the
man Of middle age his opportunity
to return TO active service in the
business world. Employers today
are giving the preference in jobs
which both can do equally we'll 70
the man who is not available to mil
itary duty, instead OF TO the man
who may be called to war.
SO reports the Employers Associ-
alton of Chicago. which last fall un-
dertook TO put the man whose age
has caused him TO be regarded as
through" into d position where he
will be independent of charity.
The prejudice against the man of
more than 45 rapidly is vanishing
as a result of our experiment" said
Peter J. Dunno, manager of the en-
ployment bureau. Slowly, but sure
ly. the employer is beginning to
realize that the middle aged man
still is able TO do a mans wor'- and
often better than the unframed
youth. There has been a perCepti-
BILE jump since war has been hover
ing over us. The old timer will be
mighty useful when the young man
is called TO the defense of his
country"

POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL"

Mary Plckford's very latest pro-
ductiOn is a perturbation OF Eleanor
Gates famous book, a Poor Little
Rich Girl" and IS admitted by
every one who has seen it TO be
the best piece Little" Mary has
ever appeared in.
1t has just completed a run at the
Auditorium theater. Chicago, and
broke all records for attendance at
the Strand theater, New York, the
Modern theater, Boston, and the Co
ionial at Columbus. o. The picture

ing Monday at the oliver theater,
and alt those followers of the dainty
little star may anticipate the treat
OF the season in the picture line.
The story is a delightful one, filed
with smiles, tears and surprising
situations IL concerns GNendOlyn.

everything that money can buy, but
who is starving for love and affec-

with their social duties, TO bestOW

Hrium she sees things as they
should be and when she RECEIVERS
sufficiently to talk, she tells Of the
wonderful things and people she has
seen and the good times she has
had. which awakens the parents TO
a realization of their duty TO their
child. The story contains a great
lesson that might well be needed
by many rich parents who leave
their children 10 the care Of nurses
and other paid help instead Of de-
voting some of their own time to
their pleasure and happiness.

shown at the LaSalle today with
Richard Bennett in the leading role.

making mistakes in an Office, play
ing with dogs and making love TO a
