It is truly a special production which is offered by the Empress tonight. Charlie Chaplin appears in The Kid" the long waitedfor comedy of all times
 The daylight trails of motherhood, the midnight trails of paternity are all for Chaplin in this super-comedy. He was a god mother to the Kid, and when that Kid grew up. he surely be- came a wonderful son
 Charlie Is wandering glazier. and while the Kid went ahead breaking windows. Charlie was always on hand to get the job mendinE them. And yet there's a sob now and then. Never expected that of Charlie did you? Well. here's where you get something more than laughs.
 To miss The Kid" is to miss the greatest comedy of all times. Filled with humor. a touch Of pathos here and there interspersed with highly dramatic situations, and portrayed by two of the highest class actors before the Americain public, The Kid" is a picture to conjure with
 Jackie Coogan. one of the greatest finds ever made in the search for boys with real acting ability. plays the title role Charlie and Jackie make a combination never equaled-you must see it to appreciate it.

 The films were produced in a room of ordinary size in daylight MT John. son, the medium, was seated outside Of a cabinet. The room was carefully sealed on all sides, and after each one of the tests the seals were care fully examined to see that they re- mained unbrOken.
 There were about sixty spirits ma terialized in the films These includ. ed spirits of men. women and children. Besides European and Americans, there was a spirit of Hindu and those of few American Indians. The visualized forms were shown in the films in most cases as rising upward from the floor.

DIG UP COFFIN
AND HEADST0NE
Skeletons May be Found in
Excavating for High School
Addition

Excavation for the new addition
to the high school, which was start
ed Thursday by the use of huge
steam shovel, after months or de-
lay and much uncertainty as to the
outcome of the project, has again
brought to light the fact that this
SPOT was at one time. many years
ago, a cemetery. Today the shovei
scooping the dirt unearthed a head
stone and a number of pieces OIL
wood which workmen claimed were
parts of coffins. Several persons gath-
cred at the site after the head stone
had been found, expecting that eacn
shovelful of earth would uncover
bones of some of those VINO hau
been buried there.
MANY of the bodies that were in
the old cemetery which occupied this
spot were taken up and moved to
the Alpine cemetery. when the site
was declared more valuable for
building purposes than a resting
place for the dead. 1t was supposed
at that time that all the bodies had
been removed, but among those VINO
were watching the excavation work
TODAY, were some who declared tnat
a. few of the bodies had remained
in the old site.
Among the stories told by those
watching the work of excavation TO-
day. was one about an old sea cap
tain who died when a steamplpe
burst on a vessel anchored in the
sound. This captains body, accord
| ing to the story, was buried in the
old cemetery and when the others
were moved to Alpine cemetery ms
| was forgotten. Before the Lincoln
Engine Company and the Protection
| Hook e. Ladder Company, whose
house adjoins the high school site
were motorized, when the horses
| became unruly or cross the firemer
were in the habit of blaming the
trouble on the old sea captains
| ghost.
The headstone unearthed today
which was of the old fashioned slat
type, contained no name but was
marked with the initials i. NJ.
| AS soon as the excavation is com
pleted, and indications are that this
! will be finished within very shor'
| time, building will start Immediately
and it is expected that the wing VII
be in use at the beginning of the
! January term.
