The remarkable photoplay Are You
Fit to Marry inaugurated the summer
season at The Playhouse yesterday II

ity. The one at S.45 was for men and il
also was witnessed by full house. DIR.
H. J. Haiselden of Chicago produced
Are You Fit to Marry?" He also plays
the principal role in the production. For
the material of his photoplay, he took his
personal experience in the famous Boil
linger case and from that, with the aid of
a well-known magazine writer, Jack Lait,
wrote a story of much consequence and
importance. The aim of the doctor was to
drive home the necessity of clean living
and loving for the hope of the future
generations, Assisting DIR. Haiselden

We know now that the league consti-
tuted mt Versailles is utterly impotent
as Il preventive of wars. 1t is 50 OBJ
viously impotent that ii has not eve
takenly conceived and u~nreasonably
insisted upon, has undoubtedly passed
beyond the possibility of restoration
The maturer Judgment of the world
will be that it deserved to pass for
the very simple reason that, contrary
to all of the tendencies developed by
the civilizing processes Of the world,
1t rested upon the power of might, not
of right.
THE assertion is made frequently
that through the surrender of our na-
tionality we might nave saved the life
of the covenant-that is To say, that,
although twenty-eight nations could
not make II function, one added to the
twenty-eight would have achieved Il
glowing success. provided, always, that
the one were America.
This pays to America the tribute
of exceptional influence. But | sug-
gest that if the world is dependent
upon our action to bring about the
supreme realization, then we ought
to have the say about our own free
dom in participation therein. But
let us consider what is meant by this
reliance upon America. What can
it signify if not that it is to the
United States, and to the United
States alone. that the other twenty
eight nations look for the bone and
sinew, the money. the munitions, and
the men to sustain the entire organi-
cation, not as an agency of peace, but
as an armed force?
"A few days ago a delegation of
an organization, which calls itself
a society for the prevention of war,
appealed to the premier of Great
Britain to unite and use the powers
of the world in defense of Poland,
Armenia and the Dardanelles. The
British premier replied, according to
his remarks quoted by the newspap-
crs, to the effect that. while The
