The gang was trudging along a
dusty road. Every one was hot, tired
and dirty. They had gone to their
favorite swimming and fishing hole
and to their great disgust had found
it quite dried up. Peter who was in
the lead' stopped so suddenly that
Billy who was behind him. bumped
into him.
NV Whats the matter"9 demanded
For answer Peter dived under thu
fence and the rest followed like 80
many sheep. A thrifty farmer with a
gasoline engine had an immense wat
er tank for his stock. He piped the
overflow to small pond for his
chickens and ducks. The water was
fairly clean except at one end where

some small pigs were burrowing joy
ously in the mud. =
With one accord the boys began to
strip and they were soon splashing in
the cool depths OF Farmer Burns
i duck pond. They began a water
fight that soon turned into a mud
fight and Peter caught pig. He was
standing in the middle of the pond
holding the kicking muddy creature
| tight to him and Billy and Hal were
out on the ground trying to catch
them a pig when the sound of a car
sent them scurrying to the pond.
They all waded in as deep as they
could and turning their backs waited
for the invaders to go by.
But they didn't go by. They stop
ped and footed their horns and the
boys had to turn around and look.
There was Rogers father in Rogers
new car with Mary Ellen and her
mother More than that there was
, Mama Palmer in her new car and
Aunt Phoebe was with her.
Roger hid his eyes at the sight and
shivered. But Peter waved his hano
guly.
Drive on up the road and turn
around and wen be ready to go back
with you" he called.
1t was very subdued bunch OF
boys that rode back to town on the
fender of the cars as It was decided
that they were too dirty to ride any
where else.
When Peter was again clean he
was told that his father would speak
to him in the library. When he got
there he found his father more en-
barrassed than he was.
Peter, said papa,,, "if you had a
little boy and he ran away from
home and stripped and went in a
nasty mud hole in plain view of the
road and played with some pigs what
would you do?
Peter stopped trying to figure out
how long papa could go without grim
ming and considered the matter.
IT believe" he said that I'd fix
him place where he could go in
swimming"

ALLENBY STOPS
 CRAFT OF TURK
Persecution of Armenians and Confiscation of Property Pre-
 vented by English Officer.

The most arbitrary city boss in the world, it seems safe to say, as well as the most interruptions politician of modern times, has turned up in Aintab, Armenia, to judge from an official re port recently made by Major Stephen Trowbridge, under Gen. Edmund H. H. Allenby's orders.
 He is Turk named Besim Bey. Until the Near East Relief agents stopped him, he practiced upon the terrified Armenians such forms of super-graft as might we'll make every other cor rupt politician in the world green with envy, and such cruelties as make all other heartless rulers, from Nero down, seem sweet and gentle char acters. His office was that of NIunic- ipal Chief Accountant of Aintab; but, as all dishonest Office-hOlders know, it isn't the job that matters, but the sugar-plums that go with it. Besim Bey plucked sugar-plums with both hands, night and day.
 Even inspired city bosses have their day. Besim Bey's came when the Near East Relief agents found that no thorough Armenian relief work could be done in that city while such cOndi- tiOns of terrOrizatiOn existed. General MacAndrew ordered the arrest and removal of the six worst Turks in the ring that ruled the city, anI Besim Bey qualified, as usual. for first place.

hero IS cashiered out of the service on a false charge and later Is found as sailor on board steamer crossing the China sea. The boat IS wrecked i'll one of the most sensational scenes ever photographed with a typhOOn faithfully depicted and he rescues the daughter of the owner of the steamship line. They are cast adrift on an uncharted island and they have many thrilling Viclssi- tudes with the final denouement de-
 veloped along extremely dramatic lines. Other big scenes aside from the ship WI -ck scene include fierce battle in which Farnum single handed fights whole tribe of pirates and while Big Bill has been in many screen hght this is the last word along that line. If you are an adnirer of Farnum you will doubly enjoy this picture for he IS surely at his screen best in it. Sunday night there will also be shown another stirring episode of The Midnight Man" with James J. Corbett featured and a two reel comedy and Bijou News Weekly with two complete shows given, and the vaudeville to be shown the first three days of the week i'll con junction with the Farnum picture will be headed by "Toyland'' a group of exceptionally clever kidd1es a half dog en of them in a novelty entertainment that is pleasing to young and old alike. There are many juvenile acts playing the circuit but this aggregation is the top notcher of them all, Belle Mont rose, an unusually clever comedienne along original lines will offer her orig ina1 oddity, Her Only Chance, and the added feature will be Frederick Dell and Flo, a trio of entertainers par excellence. Other acts which will round out the bill are Bergman and Leonard in their travesty At the Movies" and Edward Hill, the cartoonist, offering his conception of "Hattie's Creation There will be the usual added features and continuous performances daily from 1 to 1O:3O with the usual small prices scale of admission.

the American people. They look to us as the human agency to extricate them from the frightful situation in which they have been left as a conse- quence of the war.
 If we should fail to aid them, starva- t1on and the winters cold would go far to completing the work done by the unspeakable Turk
 l have not seen with my own eyes the misery in which the Armenians now exist. I have been spared that.

 Since the beginning of the war the Turkish Armenians have been largely refugees from their homes. A simple agricultural people, they have been exiles from their farms, deprived of O" "nnnrtnnitv to support themselves.

THE HYPERION.

Patrons of the Hyperion have been treated to many delightful surprises but a brand new one comes next week when for the first time on any stage a play that is going from here to Broadway and thus reverses the usual order ot things. The play is called "ln Love With Love" and it is the last word in originality for Vincent Lawrence, 7he author, has, i'll the language of the stage, Init it. and hit it right One may wonder bit at the title and get the impression that it is bit confusing but after one sees the play 1t will be found that the title IS perfectly log1caal in every way. The author deals with martial conditions and with love from an entirely different angle, He pre- supposes that when a man and woman fail in love each with the other, they are in reality not in love with each other but they are in love with love. In other words they feel a love symp- tom coming on, feel that they want to be loved and want to love and as matter of fact it's love they are in love with. The play just bristlesl with wit and epigram of the Shaw brand and 1t is just good enough for David Belasco to stage i'll New York the first of the year. MT. Belasco will head group of theatrical experts from New York who will be here Monday to witness production of the play. MT. Van Buren has the big role and it's one of the best he ever played; he will endorse that statement himself. Miss St. Claire and the other favorites are well cast and Director Steele will give it his. usual splendid production. Seats for the en- tire week are now on sale at the box office of the theatre.
 This Sunday night Manager Menges will offer an extraordinary bill of pie lures headed by Ora Carewe in Under Suspicion" brand new out of the can Universal It's the story of girl who is innocent1y hurled into vortex of crime and of her eventual happiness with the man she loves. Forrest Stan ley and Charles Clary are co-starred with Miss Carewe and an interesting reel shows how the boulevard bandits accomplish their daring jewel robberies. Another big feature offers Douglas Fairbanks in Manhattan Madness" one of the best features he ever made and you know it. A comedy, Squads and Squabbe1s," and Prizma and kino- grams complete the bill. The entire lower flor is reserved and seats may be secured in advance.

THE PALACE.

Again the Palace comes to the fore with a screen production par excel 1ence ill the form of D. w. Grifith's dramatic tT1underbolt, The Mother and the Law" which will be shown i'll the big theatre on Sunday evening as the feature, of a selected bill of motion pictures and also on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday as the stellar attrac- ton of a decidedly classy vaudeville bill.
 With its scenes placed in the midst of great industrial upheaval, gigan- tic battle between labor and capital which leads to bitterly fought mill strike, there is strain of excitement leading up to the various climaxes that could only be devised, sustained and carried on to a satisfactory, end by such master as the great Griffith.
 As is customary in all Griffith pro- ductions a cast of amazing strength has been selected by the guiding spirit of the picture to enact the characters of the gripping story
 Introducing many new and beautiful dances Catherine Powell and her clever brother present one of the very choicest bits of stepping listed among vaude- ti1le's terpsichorean offerings, for the first three days of the week
 In pot pourri of comedy, songs and dances Bert and Dotty Wheeler have won no little vaudeville distinction. One of teh high lights of their fun making is cleverly conceived and ex- ecuted imitation of Charlie Chaplin. This Is as merry while it lasts as any picture made of the great comedian.
 A musical farce that nets a high rate of laugh interest is "A $1,OO0 Note" presented by Milton Wallace and com pany. There are many delightful song numbers and any amount of good laughs issued during this somewhat un- usual financial transaction.
 Of course Nora Kelly is Irish and she has all the Irish appreciation of wit and true Gaelic ability to sing Irish songs. Miss Kelly's ability to sing which she does with just the trace of most delightful brogue are features of Nora Kel1y's work largely responsi- ble for making this broth of a girl the big vaudeville success that she is.
 The Raymond Trio who give an ex- hlb1tion of the iron jaw type perform some stunts showing an amazing strength of tooth and jaw.
 For the last three days of the week he1 company fill III the headline position. oA0SNd at lS d NOSdI and instrumental treat.
 Frank Hurst in "A1one at Last is comedy gift that variety audiences in the west have appreciated as they have efW others. McDevitt, Kelly and Quinn known to theatergcers as The Piano Movers" and one of the funniest trios making living in the laudab1e occu- patton of amusing others This act is big favorite and the weather signals for a storm of laughter are sure to be flown in anticipation of its coming,
 Golden and Luken, couple of black face cut-ups, and the Holman Brothers in very clever as well as novel gym nastic act, are two more good ores for the last half of the week
 The screen feature booked for Thurs day, Friday and Saturday is Pauline Fredericks in "The Loves of Letty." This is the case of popular star be- ing provided with a pretty and most interesting story-the combination of course means satisfaction to picture lovers

THE BIJOU.

One of the most graphic stories ever seen on the silver sheet comes to the Bijou Sunday night and the three days following when Manager Valles will offer the supreme hero of the cinema William Farnum, the most popular of all the male stars who appears at the Bijou and he will be offered in his new super feature, Wings of the Morning" " visualization of Louis Tracey's mast erfu1 story of the sea which appeared in one of the leading magazines recent 1y. Farnum has done many big and powerful things on the screen notably his last release "The Last of the Duanes," but this new one is the crowning achievement of his long and successful screen career. The romance opens at faraway Singapore at British army post when MT. Farnum as the
