At the close of the school year Geo.
d. Eaton, superintendent Of, schools,
Laurens, will resign his position to
take up field work with the, national
committee for the prevention of blind
ness, 130 East 22d street, New York. II
will be recalled that for ten years Mr..
Eaton was superintendent Of the Iowa
college for the blind at Vinton. While
in this work, from which he resigned
to take up war activities, he became in
terested in finding out the many causes
OF blindness among his students and in
giving special attention to those that
could be prevented so that like tragedies
need not again occur. Although the
board Of education of Laurens has Of
fered him every inadcement to remain
at his present post, he has felt the call
of the great work being done by the ma.
tional committee for the prevention of
blindness and will Immediately take up
his duties as field secretary with that
Organization.

old mill chimney, owned by Samuel Ar.

secured an inventory of the associa.

"Playthlngs. at Lakewood Theatre
Next Week

Judging from reports that come
from the cities in which it has been
produced, "Playthings' which is to be
next weeks bill at Lakewood Theatre
is to be one of the greatest dramatic
sensations which this excellent com
pany has offered.
The author has taken the most vital
questions of life on which to hinge
his play-questions that vertically cry
out for discussion. 1t has been said
that life is what We make it, but in
the case of too many young woman
life is what it has been made for her
by those who prey upon her ignorance
of the pitfalls of life.
The right of a woman who is es-
sentially good, whose charm has cap
tured the heart of an honorable man
to conceal from him the knowledge
that her past is not entirely what il
should have been-this is one OF the
points that is raised in "Playthings'
just as parents who keep their daugh-
ters in ignorance of the facts of life
are arraigned at the bar of truth and
against them is written down the
blame if life proves too much for thai
daughter afterwards.
Full of action from the rise of the
curtain till its final fall, "Playthings'
may be confidently said to be one OF
the most tremendously powerful
emotional dramas of the day. 1t ad
vances through one thrilling situation
to another. There is action for every
minute, and finally there is a startling
and utterly unlocked for climax that
is calculated to raise audiences VERT
ably out of their seats.
