OVER THE HILL

This William Fox production is a
wonder among the best pictures put
on the canvas. To this exhibition
the Ada Meade, Lexington, has ex-
tended an invitation to the Ken
lucky press and as to this story in
picture the editor has to say, as in
the beginning of this article, it is a
wonder.
So vivid of life the attention once
engaged is held TO the close. The
Ada Meade gives the picture to the
public during this week and we are
sure those fortunate enough to see
IL will be entertained from the be-
ginning to the end.
The loving heart of the real mo-
Their is life's vicissitudes with a
large family is the story pathetically
portrayed by picture.

In France, too, il appears, lawyers

A French lawyer was put into the

manner. The president of the court
suddenly interrupted him.

Friend Ed:-You have doubtless
heard of the saying that "ln spring
young mans fancy lightly turns to
thoughts of love" Well, in this day
and generation, with its millions of
people in their mad rush TO obtain the
almighty dollar, we are more than
forced TO say that "the wheels Of in
dustry turn to prosperity" However,
! since the war these wheels are begin
ming to slow down in their many revo-
lutions in turning out the money for
the numerous corporations for which
this country is noted. Instead of the
manufacturers letting their thoughts
lightly turn ito the dollar" which
means immense boards of money to
them, they should have an interest in
the welfare of the nation itself, which
has been the protection and the means
of producing the millionaires and the
multi-millionaires whose sole purpose
is TO grab the "eagie," and let the coun-
try for which il stands suffer by their
greatness. From time memorial it
has been the history of nations to rise
and fall, governed by the course of
events that were stimulated by the
masses within its borders. A nation
cannot exist within a nation, and there
is today without doubt existing with
in the boundaries of this country a
separate organization with the dollar
as its ruler. Thus you will see that
unless the waves of the silvery sea
are dyked the country which we all
should place above everything else will
be swept 10 the deep chasm Of humilia-
tion as was Rome when she fell from
the Seven Hills.
Yours,

MRS. FRED GIRTY
TO REVIVE STORY
HOUR At Library

Do you like to hear people tell
stories. OF course you do. Even
grownups like to hear people tell
stories. Now you children and
juniors are going to have chance
to hear them. Beginning with next
Saturday, Feb. II, there will be a
story hour for children and juniors
of Richmond in the MORRISON
Reeves library under the direction
of Mrs. Fred Girty. Mrs. Girty as
many of you know was formerly
editor OF the Junior Palladium and
knows what kind of stories boys
and girls like to hear. The stories
will be told on Saturday afternoons
from 2 to 3 o'clock. In connection
with this, exhibits will be held
from time to time on special sub
jects, which will also be the sub.
,jects of the stories for that week
Saturday, Feb. IL is to be Lin.
coin day and there will be Lin.
coin exhibit in connection with this
at the library which will last a
week.
Mrs. Girty wishes to announce
through the Junior that if any chill
dren have pictures or newspaper
clippings or perhaps an old coon
skin cap like the one Lincoln wore
she will be glad to include them ir
the exhibit If they will bring them
to the children's department of the
library Monday or Tuesday even
ings after school. Also, if any one
is ambitious enough to make map
of the chief places in Kentucky, In,
diana and Illinois where Lincoln
lived and worked, it will be shown
to the children at the story hour
on Saturday.
Owing to the fact that the seat
ing capacity is limited to so people,
plans are being made with Miss
Paine, grade school supervisor for
accommodating certain groups of
juniors each week. Definite an
nouncement concerning this will
appear sometime next week in the
big" Palladium.
The subjects as announced for
February are: Lincoln, Feb. -;
Washington, Feb. 10, and Colonial
children, Feb. 26.
