kind of woman we admire and love
and fight for. She is determined
that the green country boy shall
make good-and he does.
But as power comes to the boy
there are forces that entangle him
and compromise him. InsiduOusly
they work, faster and faster, until he
finds himself on trial for his life
and then-Dorothy Dalton who is the
woman, makes great sacrifice which
turns out right after all. =:
A play that will keep you on the
edge of your seats throughout. A
genuine Mack Sennett keystone
comedy in two parts, named Cub
bles of Trouble" will complete the
Triangle program tonight.

What is the derivation Of the phrase
Mad as hatter?" One explanation
is that it was originally French, AS
mad as an oyster" (huitre), that bivalve
being supposed to be extremely unin-
tellectual. Another theory is that the
phrase had reference to Collins, the
English poet, author Of the lode to
the Passions" He was a halter at
Chichester, and it has been said that
the lunatics with whom he was con-
fined at one time called him 1.-The hat
ter and that the phrase originated
thus.
