When an author of the caliber or
Cyrus Townsend Brady, and star OF
the ability of Anita
Anita stewart Stewart, combine to
Mt the Colonial make q drama of the
vital problem OF
home, it's bound to be a success, and
any one who sees Apita Stewart in ',rhe
More Excellent Way at the Colonial
Theater to-day or tomorrow. is bound
to admit that these two people have
made a photoplay that hits the mark.
The story dealts with Chrissey DIESEL
den, who, after she married John War
burton, finds him a trifie grim. His
absorption in his deals in the Exchange
came between him and his bride, and
she naturally turned for amusement
and companionship to the nearest di-
verting man-Robert Neeland. When
Warburton discovered the predicament
into which Chrissey has fitted in her
innocence he dealt with the matter and
the man with his custumary vigor and
decision. "Her Circus Knight" a
screaming two-reel keystone comedy,
will be the added attraction of the pro-
gram. Wednesday and Thursday. Louis
J. Selznick will present Kitty Gordon
in "Vera, the Medium" adapted for the
screen from Richard Harding Davis
popular story.

the age limit for children to begin

AS chief of the state department of
mines, Mr.. Henry is opposed to the
child labor law as passed. There are
many sections OF the state where tho
children have but six months of school
this being true in the large majority Of
The mining districts. 81 am not oppos.
ed to education, but am opposed to
any law that compels an industrious
hoy to loaf six months out Of the year
when he cannot go to school," said Mr..
Henry this morning. 1.-THE law was
made for the cities where the children
have nine months Of school and not for
the mining regions where the children
go to school but six months" Mr..
Henry states that he would be very
much in favor of the federal child Ia
Dor law II the state would adapt a rul.
