"The Kid" Associated First Ma

day. 1t is more Charlie Chaplin
than has ever been put into one PC

six full reels in length. the story was
written by the comedian himself. He
directed it himself and plays the
leading role.
Jackie Coogan. one of the greatest
finds ever made in the search for
boys with real acting ability. plays
the title role. His work was so
pleasing to the comedian that before
the production was over he was uni
versally known among the film col
ony on the coast where the picture
was made as "Charlie, Junior" a
name which Chaplin gave him him
self.
Edna Purviance, whose beauty
and general acting ability made her
such a splendid leading lady for
Chaplin in previous productions, has
the leading feminine role.

Discussing the threatened strike
BY the packers employees rather than

cage newspaper says, 1--WE are all in
this readjustment business together
But the fellow who is asked to
take his share Of the readjustment
too often warts TO yell Murder"
The packer' workers are willing
that the railway workers stand a
reduction so that the packers work
ers may not only continue their own
employment, but get something be-
sides, out Of possibly lower traffic
rates, but the railway workers want
the packing industry to do it all, so
that they can buy cheaper peace
basis meat products with their alb
normal war basis wages
And If this is true about the coal
mine, the textile min and the steel
plant employees, it is also true about
some Of the employers in great in
dustries. They don't want to cut
war basis wages and also war basis
prices; they want other industries
and the rest of the country to cut
their war basis wages and war basis
prices, while they stand pat.
Yet they all ought to know that
for the country to get down to
peace basis of working and living
everything must come down. And
everything is going to come down.
The law Of nature Will see to that.
But when the railroads at last realize
that the people stop unnecessary
travelling when the fare is too high,
the factory owner realizes that his
product quits selling freely when the
price is too high and the farmer
realizes that people even eat less
when the cost is too high, what is
the sense of anybody trying to block
the way to the economic readjust-
ment which is the only thing that
will stimulate consumption, start up
business and put our wage earners
to work againf

NATIVE HAWAI|ANS
IN THE CAST Of Big
SHOW THURSDAY
Scenery of Thursdays Offering Is Said
TO Be Far Above the Average
Native Dances Properly
Danced.

Among the many things to catch the
eye Of the travellers are the old native
grass houses on the Islands Of Hawaii,
and for this reason the author has re-
produced both exterior and interior
of this picturesque abode, which
serves as the first scene in the last
act of "a Night in Honolulu" the
pretty musical play which comes to
the Washington Theater next Thurs
day, March 3, for one night only.
The spirit of modern Improvement
has replaced them with less pleasing
shanties, and this is to be deplored
as much as the hideous Mother Hub
bard" which was introduced by the
missionaries, nevertheless h e s e
homely garments are often rendered
beautiful by the hibscuc blossoms and
the happy countenance of the wearer.
Although the native girl is generally
represented to us in the Hula costume
it is now only worn on rare occasions.
The Hula is national dance which
has been greatly modified in many
respects and yet the traveller is ex-
hilarated and entranced when the hos
pitable natives entertain them with
it on their feast days.
On a recent trip to the Islands, Mr..
Barnes ,one of the producers and au-
thor, received an invitation, and his
host promised many interesting
sights. The gentleman in question
was eager to embrace an opportunity
that would give him material for the
forthcoming play. He heartily enjoy
ed the entertainment until he was
given dried fish to eat. Fearing to
offend his host he awaited an oppor-
tunity and tucked it carefully away
in his coat sleeve. One of the natives
observing its quick disappearance re-
marked to the host that their guest
was very fond of the fish, thereupon
Mr.. Barnes was presented with an
other twice its size, and before the
eyes of his delighted observers he was
compelled to eat it. These natives are
hospitable to a fault. On his return
home he confided to his wife that he
had paid dearly for the evenings en-
tertainment. The native Hawaiian
loves to designate himself as "ka-
naka." he is too much filled with the
joy of living to consider laboring in
any manner. His wants are few, as
and his clothes. He can live on the
simplest food With inordinate fond
ness for idle pleasures, good humored
and tractable as children. In fact the
highest tribute that can be paid to
them is that they are children.
