CrandaIl's Knickerbocker-

With what remarkable comedy ef-
feet the unconscious humor of trained
animals may be utilized upon the
screen was demonstrated to capacity
audiences at Crandall's knickerbocker
Theater yesterday, when His Home
Sweet Home" starring Larry Semon.
was shown as the secondary feature
of a well-nigh perfect hot weather
bill. In this two-reel farce, Mr.. Sc
mon is cast as a henpecked young
bridegroom who attempts various
means OF winning his mother-in-law's s
favor. Success finally crowns his ef-
forts when he is enabled 10 restore
a string OF stolen pearls to the domi-
nant power in the household. The
chase for the pearls enlists the gro
tesque activities OF an ape OF un-
canny intelligence, wonderfully
trained bulldog and a cageful of
monkeys.
The chief feature OF the bill was
the exceptionally well adapted screen
version of Upstairs and Down." the
famous comedy by Frederic and Fan
ny Hatton. with Olive Thomas pic
tured in the role OF Alice Chesterton,
celebrated as the first stage embodi-
ment of the spirit Of the baby vamp."

What makes the play particularly

plausibility which the author, Edmund

TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

The style of campaign oratory is changing. When the
most of us young, the typical campaign address
was "rousement.' Fiery TANNERS of wind were sent
out from headquarters whose duty it was to enhuse
"the boys" Few members of the opposite party ever
attended such meetings Such opponents as were
were too fixed in their convictions to be converted All
that could be done impress the faithful with the
imminent peril in which the republic Stood in case the
vile and degenerate opposition candidate and his dis
graced and dscreded party should win the succeeding
election The political funny man had an assorted col
lection of stories and anecdotes largely handed down
from previous generations Yet when pronounced with
emphatic JUNCTION and forcefu gesture they sounded
good, even if musty. These stock anecdotes could be
applied equally well by the orators of either party Thew
convinced no one.
The shrewdest speakers are the ones who give due
weight to the arguments ofthe other side 1t often il
good policy to admit that your opponent is an honest
man and good citizen, and that the opposing party
may have good ideas, if they only knew how to work
them out Starting from such basis, the sagacious
speaker gains the confidence of his audience by the an
and show where the ideas of the opposition are mis-
taken
Even the rustiest of rusty "Reubens" can spot gold
brick today Also he recognize political bunk.
The very first essential in political speech is to give
the audience the impression that you are fair and Omen
minded, and speaker who cannot do that had better
keep still while the band plays tune
