(. "Fine work 7" everybody said when
the Pueblo. boy scouts rose to the oc-
casion in the emergency of the flood
and went about aiding the police, rem
dering first aid and saving human lives
at the risk of their own. "WOnderful
mOvement!' we cry when we read how
boy scouts fight forest fires, act as
traffic police, conduct city clean-ups,
take the lead in safety-first and anti
fly and Observation-Disclosures cam
paigns.
Again, when we happen to notice u
scout giving his seat to IA lady on Il
car, stopping to tell stranger how to
get to his destination. interrupting his
ball game to help somebody fix Il tire,
jumping into the street to pick up a
bit of broken glass or banana skin,
we are impressed by the spirit which
somehow or other has been ~instilled
into these lads. Though still just
everyday youngsters, they are a little
straighter, little manlier because OF
the rigorous discipline Of the boy scout
training, q little more given to service
because of the daily good turn boy
scout gospel. But we should relnem-,
Der that without the scOutlnaster's ell
thusiasm and devotion to the boys none
of these results could be realized.
There are 1868 scoutmasters in the
United States serving 10000 boys.
They are busy men, all of them, doc
tors, lawyers ministers, school teach
ers, business men, bankers, editors,
electricians, photographers, giving
their time, their energy, their best
thought and services to scouting. But,
despite all this devoted and patriotic
work the country over, there are hun
dreds Of boys wishing to get into scout
ing who cannot do so because there
are not enough 7leaders--that is, scout
masters. " ,
Let every live, red-blooded, boy
hearted man in America stop and ask
himself whether he isn't letting Il
priceless opportunity pass by him if he
isn't lining up with scouting. doing his
bit for the boys Of America who need

"THE BROKEN SPUR" AT + = < IN
REX THEATER SATURDAY

ss To- the majority of people it is
difficult to be other than just what
we are, although we do read from
time to time of a "Raffles" or CDR.
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde" An actor who
can take the part of two characters
in a play or motion picture always
proves his real ability in his art. Jack
Hoxie, who comes to the Rex theater
Saturday in his latest Western fea-
ture, "The Broken Spur" proves his
ability to accept dual role, for he
is both the big good-natured camp
foreman, beloved by his men, and
rowing bad man of the Canadian
twilds who, fights as quickly with his
fists as with his revolver.

would be in his home town. Neither
could complain, as on the first appear

plause. AS to their histrionic ability
the many curtain calls that followed
their act indicated the satisfaction
given. Each made graceful address.
and Miss Bayne promised speedy re-
turn to Washington in play instead
of a sketch.
The rest OF the program comprised
all sorts of turns, something of a

"The Scarlet Man." satirical COM
edy in four acts by William LIE Baron,
presented by Charles Dillingham;.
opened weeks engagement last
night at the National Theater. The
play is advertised as being on it's way
to New York for a run there.
The audience sat patiently through
three acts last night, laughing at the
appointed laughing spots and ex-
pectantly waiting for, something saw
ing to develop in the last act. Then.
when all seemed lost, the hero comes
in and assures the audience it's all
joke, a satire, a pure farce, and
not to be taken seriously, anyhow.
Then things work out reasonably
we'll.
The play represents Mrs. Talbot as
social climber who hopes to get
there via the route of Mrs. Della
fields friendship, Mrs Delafield being
the well known society leader.
Mary Talbot INDUCES in an esca-
pade that shocks the family. but Mrs.
Delafield praises her for what she
has done, and all is serene.
John Cumberland's Interpretation of
Wilbur Lawrence is well done, con-
sidering his opportunities. and Miss
Frances Carson is convincing and
attractive at Mary Talbot.

and Eva"

1t was a notable occasion at the
Shubert-Garrick Theater last night.
for 1t was the inauguration of the
third season of a summer stock COM
pany at that playhouse. The elab-
crate floral display in the foyer. the
no less profusion of floral offerings
to the players, the address of appre-
citation by Manager Edwards. the en-
ance by the large audience-all in
dictated an event of unusual interest
in local theatrical circles. Manager
Edwards has assembled q company
that quickly established friendly re-
lations with those in front of the
footlights and presented a play that
has been a metropolitan success. The
applause was frequent and hearty.
adam and Eva" was chosen to in
augurate the season, and was happy
selection. AS will be recalled by those
who saw it at another theater some
months ago, it is an amusing story of
the regeneration of rich but extrav-
agant family. Robert Brister. in the
part of Adam Smith. who brings
about the reform. created a most ia
vorable impression as the leading
man of the company. Florence Eve
lyn Martin. in the role, of Eva. was
winsome. and became favorite at
once. Douglass Dumbrille- as the
man Of wealth was vigorous and con-
vincing. Leah Winslow- as his elder
daughter. Leon Pierce as the son-in-
law, Edna May Oliver as his sister,
in-law, J. Arthur Young as his cous-
in and Hardie Meakin as Lord An
drew Gordon, who aspired to be his
son-in-Iaw, were all well cast. and
contributed to a rounded performance.
Constance Hope made the small part
of the parlor maid conspicuous sue
cess by her restraint and discretion.
Edwin Trusheim would have been
more convincing as the physician il
he had been made up to appear not
quite so youthful. At the close of
the second act, when the entire COM
pany was assembled on the stage,
showered with flowers, Manager Ed
wards expressed his gratitude for the
friendly reception given the players
and promised that no efforts would
be spared to make the summer stock
season a pleasant one for local the
ater-goerS.
