The wholesome. strength-building food
which it contains is easily taken UP by

Crescent Attraction.

William s. Hart rode into a bank
in a small town the other day and
took $4,000 from the cashier, maxi
ing his escape to the hills with little
difficulty! He committed this crime
to ingratiate himself with the Hill
gang" which had been menacing the
town for some time, in order to
catch a fugitive from Justice who
was under the protection Of the
bandits. He was exposed later and
barely escaped with his life. owing
to the help of the very man he had
come to capture, who befriended
him because he. in turn, had be-
friended the fugitive's sister.
Being a member of the Canadian
Mounted Police, Hart had to take
his man.. But on this side the
border. he found he could not bring
himself to repay kindness by placing
the Youthful slayer's neck in the
moose, so he left him and going to
headquarters. resigned. The colonel
thanked him and told him he would
have done the same thing in his
place. Then Hart went back to
marry the girl, presumably.
That in brief Is the story of
O'Malley Of the Mounted which will
be the feature attraction at the
starting tomorrow.

TEACH GIRLS H0USEW0RK
VICE CHANCELLOR SAYS

Girls of twelve and fourteen
years should be taught to do house
work, and boys should not be en-
couraged in idleness," said Vice
Chancellor Backes of the Newark
court to Stephen Somogyi, of this
city, who was representing John w.
Holmes in an effort to obtain the
custody of his two daughters, Edna,
twelve. and Grace, fourteen, who
are at present under the care of the
mother in Plainfield.
Holmes and his wife have been
separated for six years and the
father has not supported the chill
dren during that time. The attempt
to get possession of the children was
made because Holmes thought the
mother was not a fit person to have
charge of the girls. They were COM
PEELED to do their own laundry work
and other housework, according TO
his testimony.
The vice chancellor ruled that the
children should remain with the
mother, when they appeared in
court neatly dressed and testified
that they did most of their washing
and ironing themselves.

Of baseball pools will be of chief
objects of the organized baseball
crusade against gambling, Judge
Kenesaw Mountain Lands. commits
sioner of baseball, declared yester-

This type of gambling based on
the total scores of games rather
than results won and lost was no
direct menace to the game as is
the practice of wagering by individ-
uals. Nevertheless it will be stamp
ed out if possible because young
men and boys who play the pools
will be the bettors of tomorrow and
no gambling of any form must be

PUSH REHEARSALS FOR
GIRLS CLUB PLAY

A musical comedy. to be q genu-
inc hit. must possess two things. first
a good interesting plot, and second,
a tuneful musical score. Without
these. a show cannot be a real sue
cess; but in "All Aboard" the musi-
cal show which the Girls Club are
about to stage at the Majestic Thea
tire on June 10 and IA, will be found
the above requirements and more.
The aforementioned show. which is
from the pen of the late JUNE NC
Cree, who wrote more than a hun
dred professional stage successes,
proved to be one of the largest
Broadway hits ever produced. Too
much cannot be said of the pretty
musical score. In charm 1t compares
f%avorably with the Merry Widow"
and its song hits are truly individual.
Some of those taking leading parts
are w. F'enby Scott, director of the
