Every Woman" is heightened because
it deals with everyday people and
treats of a theme that is as old as hui
mainly. Mother love is it's keynote.
and it shows the utter vanity of
worldly ambition when not founded on
human affection.
Miss Phillips first appears as a
school girl, the daughter of a village
blacksmith, who, because of her good
looks and sweet voice, is the pet of
the family. She accepts the sacrifices
of her parents and sisters, and when
a visitor from New York offers to send
her abroad to. have her voice trained
she leaves home with no regrets.
After many dramatic episodes she
finally reaches the goal of her ambi-
tion-the creation of the star role in
a new and grand opera IN New York.
Her humble home and family are for
gotten. Then a tremendous shock
causes the loss of her voice Her
riew-found friends and admirers leave
her. In her mothers great love she
finds real happiness at last.

ADJUSTMENTS
BODY AND SOUL"
REAL PARTISAN
PHOTOPLAY

Body and Soul" the Metro classic
which will be seen at the Colonial
theatre today as the big feature for
the holiday, is real Partisan photo
play Up to the appearance OF this
production, theatre-goers in Augusta
have found Partisan photoplays to be
of two sorts: The very drawing
room and impressively smart, or the
very underworld and very cave-man-
nish in an unconvincing. Apache-like
way.
Not so with Body and Soul" how
ever. This play. in which Alice Lake
is the star is distinct relief from the
kind of pictures that have been sup
posed to represent Paris. The unusual
story of the Metro classic is the kind
that thrills and really grips. More
than that the picture provides ma
terial for thought and the most color
full and faithful picture of Paris the
screen has ever drawn.
To be more specific about the story
is like opening Christmas gifts before
the appointed morning: but this much
may be revealed without denaturing
| the delight by revelation; it is the
| drama of an American girl who goes to
| Paris to study art and who finds out
| several things not in the official curri-
culum of the atelier.
| Augusta people saw and wondered
| at the beautiful art of Alice Lake in
"Shora Acres" They will marv"l
more at her natural appeal as the IN
| genuous American girl; but her por-
| trayal of the woman this girl later be-
comes is astonishing so.
Her transition through the chrysalis of
experience into her second character
! is splendid
The photography and scenery Of the
picture are features in themselves.
The fifth episode of "The Yelled
Mystery will be shown cn the bill to-
day with Antonio Moreno doing more
| difficult stunts and the program will
be completed with the ever enjoyable
Paramount Magazine. Patrons should
remmeber that because Of the holiday,
the evening prices will prevail in the
/ afternoon and the evening perform.
ances will be at and s o'clock ADV.

Sanitary Inspection of Rural
SchOOlhOuses Much Needed

"The sanitary inspection of the
schoolhouses in rural communities
might profitably be included in the
routine work of the public health
nurses of the State" declared Miss
Edith l.. Soule, director of the Divi-
sion of Public Health Nursing and
Child Hygiene of the Maine Depart
ment of Health Wednesday.
Miss Soule is now making state
wide inspection Of the public health
nursing service in Maine and his al
ready visited 10 counties, including
Knox, Kennebec. Aroostook. Andros-
coggin. Cumberland. York, Penobscot
Piscataquis, Sagadahoc and Wash
ington during which inspection she
has been in conference with 20
nurses, representing as many public
health nursing services out of the %
now in operation.
Miss Soule also declared Wednesday
that one of the pronounced impress
sions of the inspection has been the
lack of sanitary conditions in the
rural schools. especially in Northern
Maine.
Manly Oh the TuIdI SCIlOOlHOuScS
are poorly ventilated, badly lighted
heated with those unjacketed stoves
which means that the youngsters
must either be too hot or too cold, &C
cording to their seats in the school
room. are not properly screened and
often are not even Clean" said Miss
Soule Wednesday.
"In some rural schools there are nc
facilities for washing the hands and
face, and no adequate source of drink
ing water. In one particular school
the children when they want drink
have to go out doors, get down or
their hands and knees and drink from
the brook which flows near the build
ing. The toilets are sometimes sadly
neglected. infrequently cleaned out
and not screened from flies.
practically none of the schools
make provision for the youngsters. in
many cases almost the entire at
tendance of the school. who take their
lunches. The boxes. sometimes tin
more often pasteboard, or merely q
paper bag. are placed on the floor
where all sorts of dirt can get al
them.
Medical inspection is also sadly
needed. as, for example. in some OF
the schools, dental defects are found
in a majority of the boys and girls
