PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY DAVID CORY,

want you to promise to give me two
bags Of gold II l rid your castle of all
the rats and mice"
Agreed said the mean old miser,
although he didn't mean to keep his
promise at all, you know.
So Puss took of his coat and his red
top boots and his pink waist-coat and
his hat with the big waving plume, and
then he got down on all his four paws
and crept softly out Of the room.
"Ho, hal" said the old miser. I'm soon
be rid of all the rats and the mice with
out It costing me a penny" and then he
rubbed his hands together and sat down
and waited.
Well, he didn't have to wait very long
before Puss returned and said:
There is not a rat nor a mouse left
in your castle; not even the baby mice.
So give me the bags of money that
may be on my merry way" But the
mean old miesr began to laugh loudly,
and then he said:
What have you done with the rats end
mice?" So Puss took him over to the
window and showed him all the rats and
the mice marching away in a long line
There they 60" said Puss, 'and
they'll never come back"
well, you follow after them" said
the old wicked miser. and he tried to
push Puss out Of the window. And this
made Puss Junior so angry that he gave
three loud whistles and back came all
the rats and mice as fast as they could
And when the old misar saw what was
happening he brought out the bags of
gold and gave them to Puss. Now tell
the rats and the mice to get out" he
said in a cross voice.
So Puss took the bags of gold and
went out of the castle, and all the rats
and the mice followed after, and by and
by they came to another old castle where
a kind lord lived who didn't have any
money.
SO Puss bought the castle for a bag
of gold and gave it to the rats and the
mice to live in forever and ever, and the
kind lord went to London and Fuss went
on his way to seek more adventures

He was squatted In the library, sur

I'VE waited. and we proceeded to wait
all during the first year. At the end Of
that time, since the fellowship was ter
minated and we had paid our money, we
had the privilege Of taking our choice

one white hand YEARLY, and Neal drew
back as if she had thrust him away

AS an outlet for his anger and hurt

himself glass Of lemonade-then he
began striding up and down the room
uIeasily, drinking in large gulps as he
moved.
Virginia appeared unaware of him. She

She looked up and smiled shyly.

The Right Thing
at the Right Time
BY MARY MARSHALL S. DUFFKE.
OVERSEAS MANN ERs.


The anxious mother of a returned sol
der recently propounded this interest
ing question.
Should mothers OF men who have been
In the service, In trench and camp, cor
rect them for the little uncouthnesses Of
manner that they have acquired in their
months away from home?
The alternative, OF course, would be
more pleasant for the mothers, for no
body has very good time who puts her
self IN the rule of a corrector, even to her
own SON.
Children expect and, Of course, need
correcting, but grown sons don't expect
IL and don't very we'll like 1t.
Now the mother in question reasoned
in this way:
Her son is still good son. pleasant
companion.
However, he has acquired Various lit.
tie habits which, though they may have
been Well enough in the barracks, are
not suitable to a drawing room
he Is less polished. less formally DO
lite, less attentive to the finer points Of
behavior.
Some day he will want TO settle down
and be married. And aren't the little I'M
couthnesses just the sort of thing that
viii make him an Irritating husband7
Aren't they just the sort of things that
a sensitive, impressionable young girl
would nnd 1t hard to get c,ong with?
1t is really more for the sake of the
future wife that the mother thinks she
ought to correct him. AS for her. she is
glad enough to have him home, safe and
whole, and to forgive any little roughness
Of manner.
This is an interesting problem, and
doubtless many mothers already have
solved It. They probably have decided
that correction may be given in the gem
TEST, most tactful way, and they have
given as little OF 1t possible to achieve
the result desired.-Copyright 1920.

HUCK,S ADVENTURES RETOLD ON MOVIE SCREEN
Dury
> heart has been exposed.

A boys heart has been exposed.
Mark Twain did it first In "Huckle-
berry Finn" but it remained for the
Paramount people to show the real heart
Of Huck on the screen.
Everybody in the wide world loved
Ruck in book form dnd he will be even
better loved on the screen, although
some liberties were taken by the movie
people of the story.
Not every story that is transferred to
the silent drama have the same attraction
that 1t had in book form.
But this is an exception.
The director must have seen the prin-
ciples involved; he must have been
young once, and dreamed the same
dreams that "Huck" and his pals
dreamed.
The Photoplay reflects the immortal
story, only slightly altered, and with
all IT'S old charm and attraction.
Lewis Sargent is Huck and makes US
all see again the days when we dreamed
of just the same adventures and deeds
that we see in this play
Huck is the personihcs\ion of the
hopes and ambitions of the average Am
erican boy, and Sargent realizes his
responsibility IN the re-teiling of Twain's
story
PROBABLY every man ana boy IN tue
audience thought that Mark had taken
page from his boyhood dreams for his
plot.
Never for moment does the audience
see anything extraordinary in the char
acter OF Huckleberry Finn.
Sargent sees 20 1t that his characteriza-
tons at all times bears the imprint of
carefulness and natural acting.
The cast is good, all the characters OF
the book appear true to life.
We needn't begin to relate the story
Of the play because everybody knows this
story.
And the movie, like all little boys and
girls, should be seen and not heard"
1t is a triumph for the makers OF mo-
ton pictures to be able TO translate
Mark Twains story with such great sue
cess as has been done.
Opinion-Lewis Sargent is a premier
delineator OF the American boy and has
wonderful story for this appearance,
and a cast and director who must be
congratulated for the production of Amer
ica's great boy story.

HOME GARDENS
REALPURPOSE
OFNEW SOCIETY
Garry Campaign Into Every
Home in Country by
StereopticOn.
PLAN TO LEARN NATURE

Cultivation Of home gardens Is the
fundamental purpose Of the American
Homecraft society" declared George H
Maxwell executive director of the or
ganization, in discussing the campaign
which will be opened to enroll thou
sands of American citizens in It's mem
bership.
The American Homecroft Society has
been organized with its national head
quarters at Indianapolis.
A lecture tour through all sections Of
the United States illustrated by stere-
opticon pictures of ideal homes win be
one Of the big features Of the campaign,
according to Mr.. MaxwelPs plans.
The society will also maintain an in
formation bureau to which persons may
write asking questions regarding the
best way and the best time to plant and
how to cook the products from the home
garden.
PROVE BOON
TO CHILDREN.
There are hundreds Of children every
year" said Franklin Vonnegut, president
of the Homecraft society, who are de-
prived of good food and fresh air on ac-
count Of the crowded conditions CT the
neighborhoods in which they live.
Tenement children grow to be rest
less, selfish and brutal"
Mr.. Vonnegut said that the only thing
which can make these children grow up
TO be contented men and women is to
teach them to love nature and her works
In connection with this Mr.. Marshall
proposes a twelve months school session
for the children, the summer months
being devoted to gardening
Children who are taught to work with
their hands to cultivate a garden and
get food from It viii learn to love rural
life and nature, so they will shun the
fats and tenements of the cities"
Mr.. Maxwell declared that only tRn
children who have fresh air and suS
shine have a strong chance to grow -
to be healthy men and women.
Letters will be sent out to business
houses in all parts of the country as
one means of communicating with the
people is the plan OF Mr. Maxwell.
The success of the war garden slim
ulates as to believe that we can be very
successful" said Mr.. Marshall.
Ever vacant lot and backyard in the
city should be utilized into a garden"
Mr.. Vonnegut declared that he believed
the people should be fastened to their
homes by the anchor "A Home Garden"
1--WE are approaching a period when
the reaction from war conditions viii
intensity discomfort in industry, and an
immediate increase in the food produc-
ton will be necessary to offset the re-
duction in wages and lack of employ
ment," he said.

sEVEN-YEAR-OLD SINGER
SINGS NEW JAZZ SONGS.

A little tot by the name Of little Berna

the honors on the new bill at the CO.
lonial.
She has a cute little way In putting
over a song, especially q jazz number or
two, and she is good for several encores.
child generally makes good before
mature audience, but Miss Murphy
has an unaffected way about her which
causes the little singer to win or her
merits and not by the ancient habit OF
audiences aprlauding children because
they are children.
She jumps from one song number
with ease and every word she utters can
clearly be heard over the theater and
that is something which can not be said
Of many grownup singers.
Ones appreciation OF Eugene O'Brien
In THE Figurehead" will be determined
largely by ones knowledge Of rotten
gang politics and the methods political
bosses use In putting over their candi
dates.
O'Brien in this movie is a socity but
tsrfy who is madly IN love with a So
ciety girl, but the girl gives up the idle
life and attaches herself to a mission In
the slumg.
She Will have nothing to do with
Eugene unless be works and he accepts
the candidacy for mayor Of a town.
Finally he discovers that he is only q
hgurehead and that his own party man
ager Is pledged to the other party's
candidate.
O'Brien gets his fists in action. shows
up the gang. wins at the election and
marries the girl he loves.
Opinion: Rather strenuous work for
the star, but the action Of the play is
supposed to take place when something
stronger than soda water was served al
political headQuarters.-W. .. II.
