1.-THE OLD NEST" TO BE
SHOWN IN WILMINGTON

"The Old Nest" Will shortly be shown
in Wilmington, according to informal
ton given out by the manager of one
of the leading theatres. This picture,
he says, is the sensation of the 1921

elaborate. Its beauty and its glory are
in its simplicity and its truth.

the typical American home and has set
it on the screen with its laughs and
its cries. its greatness and It's pretti-
ness; its hurts and its joys; its fall
ures and its triumphs. Critics, clergy
men, business men, mothers and
fathers who have seen "The Old Nest"

EVEN SENATORS DON'T RULE
Wife of Eighty-Two-Year-oId, Live
One" Waxed Sarcastic at Hubbys
Expense, the Morning After.

The story is still told in chuckle
circle in Washington, where old GRO
MES get together, of the night when
e. w. Pettus, senator from Alabama,
then eighty-two years old, stayed out
too late.
The day after the escapade the SEN
ate was droning along and Mr.. Nc
Cumber was making speech that
was well studded with statistics and
entirely denuded of thrills. The SEN
ators drifted into the cloak rooms.
Only Senator Pettus remained. Sud
denly his shoulders were seen to be-
gin to shake with mirth, and some
observer went over to learn what, in
so dry a speech, could have made him
laugh.
He said he had played poker with
the Joe Cannon crowd the night be-
fore and when the hour of midnight
arrived, the time at which Mrs. Pet
tus required his presence at home, he
had all the blue chips and could not
gracefully get away. So he played
till three o'clock.
When he got home he pulled off his
shoes at the front door, slipped into
his room, undressed in the dark and
sought to go TO bed. Mrs. Pettus, I'M
fortunately, had cast anchor in the
exact middle of the bed. So he be-
slowed himself most uncomfortably
on the edge and courted Morpheus in
vain.
Just at dawn Mrs. Pettus awoke.
The senator pretended that he was
sleeping. She got up on her elbow
and looked at her partner for 30 years
in the increasing light. Instantly she
detected his discomfort.
"AIr. Pettus." said she, "you would
rest at greater ease if you would take
off your hat."-William Atherton Du
Puy in the Philadelphia Evening
Public Ledger.

sermons by Wireless Telephone.

The day may soon come when the
itinerant minister will be a thing of
the past, says Popular Mechanics Mag
azine. The Heron Avenue Presbyte-
rian church of Pittsburgh, which had
been without a pastor for some time
and compelled to rely on substitutes,
decided on the installation of a wire
less telephone receiving outfit in the
pulpit. The outfit was a compact ar
rangement of loop antenna, amplifier
and condenser, and it was the means
whereby the interested congregation
listened to a service from the Calvary
Episcopal church of the same city.
Although the speaker differed in creed
from his auditors, attentive ears re-
ceived his sermons as transmitted by
the wireless.

unhappy, but I'll never bother you

I'm yours alone. I'll never be mean

When Harvey left her that night he
was far happier than he ever had
been before. He whistled a gay tune
as he walked home under stars gleam-
ing in a deep blue sky He went to
his room and sat for long time gaz-
ing at picture of Florence and smil-
ing 1t was smile of triumph as well
as happiness.
Before retiring he opened drawer
of his dresser and brought forth a
paper-covered book.

MUSICAL PROVES
SUCCESSFUL EVENT


Community club musical, given un
der the direction of Mrs. M. r. Hatta
baugh, in Odd Fellows auditorium
last Friday evening was a success.
Those present gave abundent evi
dence of their appreciation by gener
GUS applause and words of praise to
the participants. The program was
varied. many forms of music being in
trodueed, from the ballads to the
more classical numbers, and demon
strated much unusual musical talent
in the community.
In this day of unrest, it is pointed
out, no better influence can be brought
into the lives of the young folk than
good music, for as Thackery has said,
'Music is irresistible, its charities
are countless; it stirs the feelings of
love, friendship and peace, as scarce
any other mortal agent cam

article of general advice.

Because Florence practiced what
she preached, Harvey Roberts was
kept constantly on the anxious seat.
He never could tell just where he
stood with her. Her personality
seemed never the same. She was ex-

her she was cold and distant. She
never would admit definitely that she
