taken on the affections of the play
going public.
Considerable interest in the forth
coming production will center around
julie Jordon and Chas. Lipson, who
will make their temperance in the
roles of Abe Potash ard Mawruss
Perlmutter, in the second play of the
famous characters.
"PoIIyanna".
Great plays, like great books,
great people. and other things Of
significant value. do not come close
together in this hurrying life of
ours. Probably If they did we would
not be able to see the difference. and
then we would miss one Of the great
joys of living-that which comes
from the invigorating feel OF the
spirit of a richer mind and heart.
In the current Of plays now and
then one comes along that has a
special message for the meek and
lowly of human nature as we'll as
for the proud and mighty-a mess
age Of such meaning and clearness
that no one can escape its plain
reading and lettering purpose.
"Polyanna", play Of four joyful
acts, written by Catherine Chisholm
Cushing, and drawn from the fam
GUS story Of the same name, written
by Eleanor H. Porter, will be pre-
scented for the first time in Fargo at
the Orpheum on Oct. 4, is a gift OF
genius that calls for the homage due
to greatness. 1t is a story Of young
life and light as tender and sweetly
fragrant as the first green growths
of spring and yet it has nothing of
the weakness that comes from too
much Of the philosophy of sunshine.
The pivotal character is a young girl
whose heart sings from the joy Of /
living, and never loses it's note Of
gladness whatever comes her way to
sadden. Her happiness is so real

pinching scenes that weave in and
out Of the plot" of the piece like
golden threads in an exquisite pat
tern.
"Pollyanna" has probably been
more widely read than any book of
fiction issued in the last decade, and
the glad spirit of her living, so de-
lightfully told in the story of the
book, and illustrated by the spoken
word and appealing action of the
play, has been the inspiring cause of
all sorts Of societies devoted to the
spreading of the glad hand game. 1T
has taken people back to the for
gotten times Of youth. when impulses
were fresh, the sky was blue.
"Pollyanna", during the past two
seasons has been presented in all of
the larger cities Of the eastern por-
ton Of the United States, where it is
known as one of the most distinctly
successful Of any Of the plays of re-

part of the story. Pure sentiments

For subtlety Of direction and per-
lection Of stagecraft. Gail Kane's
new Mutual American feature drama,
Souls in Pawn. at the Strand Mon
day and Tuesday, is a triumph par
excellence of photoplay development.
Nothing could be more striking
than the finished ease with which
highly dramatic situations are pro-
duced. these situations being in every
instance due to logical development
Of the story. In no one of the five
reels is there a forced or unnatural
climax.
Miss Kane's acting is Of the very
highest type and so is that of Doug
las MacLean, a brilliant young actor
whose ability has never been more
thoroughly demonstrated than in
Souls In Pawn.
Miss Kane succeeds in carrying
conviction by her superb character

On The Italian Battle Front.
Every nation in Europe has its
official war pictures. just as it has a
blue book, or a white book, or yellow
book. and in due time the pictures
as we'll as the books are circulated
in this country. England, France
and Germany have had opportunities
to present their versions Of the con-
fict and now the military activities
of Italy are at hand in eight reels of
the most varied, interesting and pic
torially beautiful film that has come
to America from any source.
The great difference between this
and the usual picture Of armies at
the front is due to the wonderful
country in which the Italian forces
are operating. There are hundreds

ing met by military science. but in
this particular phase of the great
campaign science has not eliminated
the need for heroiam and initiative
on the part of the individual SOL

the lowering Of the wounded from
mountain top after an engagement,
destroying wire entanglements plac-
ed by the Austrians, are among
quantity of scenes calling for atten-
ton. Then, too, in this very ably
edited collection Of pictures, there
are first rate scenes of the Italian

CHEWING GUM
CHEERS SOLDIERS

News that the proponents OF ma
tion.wide prohibition measure should
gravely consider comes from Britain,
where, It is alleged, many munition
workers, deprived Of their regular al
lowance of alcoholic stimulant, have
taken to chewing cordite, which pro-
duces sort of hashish exhilaration
with a terrific reaction.
In line with this report, but afford
ing an agreeable Offset, is Lord North
cliffe's comment upon the missionary
work for chewing gum done by Ameri-
can soldiers in the entente armies, He
says that the habit Of gum chewing
while under the heavy strain of trench
life is growing among the soldiers.
This is easily understood by ruminat-
ing Yankees who find that in many
crises the mastication of chicle cheers
but does not inebrate.
Gum chewing might well become the
safety valve of temperament II pro.
hibition became general and bone dry
laws were enforced. 1t is we'll known
that the tendency to do something
wicked and forbidden is inherent in
| the human breast, and II this tendency
is suppressed in one direction it will
break out in another-as, for example,
in cordite chewing. Thus in order to
make gum chewing popular and sub.
stitute for drinking and smoking, it
must first be established as a vice. AS
virtue it will appeal to very few.
1t remains, therefore, for Chicago,
| which takes justfiable pride In be-
ing the chewing gum capital of the
world, to begin forward drive to
give chewing gum the status of vice,
Then it will receive ready acceptance
as a substitute for John Barleycorn
and silyer.tongued reformers can full

than the Demon Rum.-Chicago Daily
