MolHe williams Greatest Show.

Who ever first thought of the word
Versatile must have known Mollie
Williams, for this remarkable woman
who comes to the Majestic Theatre
Monday at the head Of Mollie
Williams Greatest Show Is certainly
versatility itself. Most women who
aspire to a stage career are satisfied
when they reach stardom, but not so
with Mollie. Becoming one of the
biggest stars burlesque has ever known
whetted her appetite. She looked
around TOR new fields to conquer, and
SO she entered the producing field and
many a male producer laughed and
thought 1t was a good joke. But after
Mollie had produced her first show
and the rival producers learned how
IT was breaking house records and do
ing a bigger business thai their w
were doing they began to look
serious. From that time it hasn't been
la case of the other producers leading
the way with Mollie tagging behind,
but rather a case of Mollie making
the pace and the others taking her
dust. Well, there is no question but
what Mollie has developed into a pro-
|ducing genius, and now the question Is
what will she do next. But that
doesn't fully explain her versatility.
One must see her and follow her in a
days work to. now just how HANDY
she Ia. She isn't one of the women
who have to call a man every time sne
wants a window closed or opened. As
La performer Mollie Williams can do
ANYTHING from singing and dancing 10
putting over a good piece or COMEDY
or enacting a serious role.

one that brings you In close touch with
the worlds champion boxer.
The program also contains a big
feature picture starring William Far
mum. The title of the picture is
Heart Strings" and it is one of the
best pictures ever made by Farnum.
Briefly. the story tells of the Won
drous love of a man for his young sis
ter. a girl who has made an unfor-
tunate alliance with a villainous crea-
ture who would drag her in the dust
and use her as a shield for his own
crimes. AS Pierre. the girls brother,
William Farnum p%ortrays the charac-
ter of a strong man who sacrifices
ambition n gives his all in an effort
to save his little sister from the suf-
fering which she faces. All the char
acters are well drawn; the scenes
were made in a little village near
Quebec and in New York City. The
play is one of intense action, well
worthy of the dramatic ability of the
noted star.

Death of Little Bruce ElrOd.

On the 7th instant the three-year~
cid son OF Mr.. and Mrs. V. w. Elrod
died of membranous Group, and after
appropriate burial services, conduct
ed by Rev. M. ]. Stansell, assisted
by Rev. l.. w. Langston, his remains
were laid to rest in the New Hope
cemetery. His illness was of short
duration, and it was soon realized
that his condition was Of a serious
nature. All that loying hands could
do failed to give relief.
Bruce was Il bright, sweet child,
and will be sadly missed in the home
by both his parents and grandpar-
ents. lie had endeared himself to us
with his sweet. smiling face and
cheerful disposition, but He who said
Suffer little children to come unto
Me- loved him, too, and took him co
live with him. Our thoughts and love
go with him, and 1t makes heaven
nearer and dearer to know that he
is there. His life, though short, was
not lived in vain. God must have a
purpose in every life and every death.
Possibly He used him as a little mis-
sionary 10 brighten our lives and to
help us on our way. To those who
are bereaved we believe it best to
think Of Bruce as being a guest in
the home that Jesus has gone to pre-
pare for those that love him, and pre-
pare to meet him. While our hearts
are filed with sadness, we bow sub
missively to the will Of Him who
doeth all things we'll After all, we
shall not have to wait a great while
for our reunion in the great beyond.
Love is so strong;
1t joins our souls forever more;
No matter though the winds Of i'll
blow long,
No matter how the storms OF life up-
start.
Love is so strong.
Yet love is weak:
1t cannot stand alone amid the strife;
H. cannot teach our f0ltering lips to-
speak;
It cannot evon save one little life!
Loyeyis so weak. ~
Bur love is strong;
Those whom our eyes have lost, love
still sees clear,
And thoughts too deep for speech
ring through loves song,
And love alone can face deaths pres
ence, dear,
And still be strong!
