AT TIE oI-EEN.

They say that Charlie Chaplin is
the most popular Of all comedians.
There is no doubt about this as far
as Wilmingtonians are concerned
and judging from the crowds that
are viewing his picture, THE Kid"
which is In course Of It's week s
presentation at the Queen Theatre.
There is in THE Kid" a Chaplin
that will be a complete surprise 10
everyone. This Is his first attCmpt
at a feature-length comedy. He has
succeeded. This has been demon
strated by the crowds that have
viewed It already.
The year that Chaplin spent in the
making Of THE Kid" is clearly ex-
pressed in the lavishness Of tho de-
tails and In the originality OF the
mirth that is cramped for room in
the picture.
In addition to Charlie and hli
sure-means OF laugh-getting, "Th'
Kid" boasts OF another comedian
little Jack Coogan a five-year young
ster who is remarkably clever and
works well with Chaplin.

The doings OF the famous Jisgs

gle, brought 10 light and created by
George McManus in his popular
cartoons. Bringing up Father" are
scheduled to hold merry sway at the
Garrick Theatre commencing Mon
day, matinee, April IL. with the
usual daily matinees. Probably no
character in the annals OF fiction are
as funny and beloved as the effu-
sions Of Mr.. McManus. For years
his comics have been entertaining
and amusing millions with the result
that the children OF his artistic brain
are now considered a national insti-
tuition. Gus Hill saw the possibili-
ties In introducing this squabbling,
but adorable pair on the stage. He
realized that every town and ham
let had its Jiggs family, and that
there were plenty OF Dinty Moore's
tucked somewhere to arouse JOY and
make life worth living after all.

Editorial Opinion
WHAT THE RAILROADS Need.

From the Providence Journal
In a thoughtful analysis of the
railroad situation, Senator Cummins,
one Of the authors of the new rail-
road law. takes the ground that
more legislation is not necessary at
the present time. His point is that
the unsatisfactory showing Of the
roads can be improved only by get
ting an increase of traffic or by cut
ting the costs Of operation, and he
does not see that their finances will
be helped by an act Of Congress.
His position is a logical one so far
as it relates to the lowering of ex-
penses, but it will be a mistake TO
place too much dependence upon. a
larger volume OF traffic as a remedy,
for whatever gains may be made in
freight loading cannot remove the
necessity Of getting a fun equivalent
for the wage paid. The first thing
to be done is TO restore efficiency in
labor and to pay only a fair market
price for it.
Public sentiment so far as ex-
pressed is decidedly against further
increases in freight rates and pas
senger fares until there is proof OF
the elimination of waste In operation
The testimony already presented to
the labor board shows that the Gov
ernment scale Of wages is not in line
with the wages paid in other indus
tries and the rules approved by the
political managers OF the roads whilC
under Federal control take million,
out of the earnings to the detrimeni
of the roads and the public.
As yet the evidence bearing or
the extravaganza and waste foistot
upon the railroads by the Govern
ment has not been denied by Ia,
