LADIES MUST LIVE"
AT RlALT0 THEATER
BALANCE OF WEEK

The last production of the late Geo.
Loane Tucker, creator of "The Mir
acle Man, written by Alice Duer
Miller, Ladies Must Live is now be-
ing shown with great success at the
Rlalto Theater. Ladies Must Live"
is a picture story with a vital, APP
pealing theme, and in its development
many highly dramatic scenes are pre-
sented which fascinate the spectator.
The homes Of wealth from boudoir
to kitchen, with their varied human
types are shown with that careful at
tenton to detail which placed George
Loane fuckers name as producer on
an enduring pedestal of fame. The
story is deeply appealing and in its
presentation, an augmented cast of
capable players worked to excellent
advantage. Betty Compton, now a
Paramount star, had the leading fem
lnine role and she played opposite
Robert Ellis, the leading man. The
production is a delightful one and the
cast generally is Of the finest grade.

to have an unusually attractive role
in Lady Babbie, one of Sir James M.

Miss Compson admits that she APP

her witehedy that forces the little

ntinople.-Cholera Is spread
ing throughout that part Of Armenia
which was the scene Of the war be-
tween the Turks and Armenians last

Gently visited Armenia before starting
northward through Russia to Mos

due to lack of foodstuffs and the con-
sequent reduced resistance of the

"An average Of twenty-five aged per-
sons and young children are dying
daily In the streets Of Alexandropol
from both cholera and hunger" he
adds. "The bodies are being loaded
In wagons which are continually max
ing the rounds of the streets.
"rhe American Near East relief Is
taking additional hundreds of virtually
naked children into its already over
crowded orphanages until buildings
can be obtained.
There are 90 registered cases
of cholera In Eriyan and 141 at
Alexandropol and the deaths are
averaging 20 per cent of the cases.
"The homeless inhabitants of 140
towns RACED by the Turks are camp
ing In the fields and swarming In the
city streets. and are without the slight

poverished government In whose paper
money 5000 rubles Is equivalent to l

"The Armenian foreign minister, AS

supplies, Sarkis Srabeonian, recently
waited on a delegation of twenty-five
Americans headed by Charles '. Wick
cry, general secretary of the near east
relief, to appeal for American aid to
see Armenia through the winter. They
stated that the government was try
ing desperately to obtain grain from
Persia, but that the Persian govern
ment was becoming alarmed at the
expectation OF foodstuffs and had
ordered an embargo, thus cutting off
the only nearby source of supply"

The design was executed In 1910 and
shows the influence of the Byzantine

the test of 100 years. The immense

FACTORY TOLL HEAVY
Loss of Life in industries Almost
Equal TO That of War.
American Loss of Life in France was
$4,000 Men, During Same Period
of Time Industries
Took 5000.

WashingtOn.-SOm very interesting
statistics have been prepared anu
made public recently showing the ire
mendous loss in human life In the
nations Industrial plants.
These figures Indicate that these ap-
pallIng conditions continue day by gay
at rnte almost equal TO the sacrihce
of American soldiers during the war
In the nineteen months Of our parlei-
patton in the war We lost approx
mately $4,000 men, while a total Oh
$1,000 were killed In factories during
the same period. This sad loss Is In
addition to the prodigious waste Oh
human energy brought about through
accidents in Industrial plants.
There Is no way of computing the
value of human life, and any condi-
ton which permits Of the monthly
destruction of almost 1000 lives con
stitutes state OF affairs that cries
aloud to our human instincts as well
as 20 our hard-headed American com
mon sense.
Life at all times and under all cir
cumstanees is uncertain, and accidents
are bound to happen. but every SAFE
guard that human ingenuity can
create should be introduced to lessen
our frightful waste of human material
Thrift of human life-no element
of our industrial activity is OF greater
Importance than this.
Yet IL is not TO be doubted that
very large percentage Of the sacrifice
Of human life Is preventable. just as 1t
Is possible TO prevent u large per.
centage of disease and fires and other
forms of distress and disaster.
These are problems which to a great
extent depend for their solution on
public conscience, and as the public be-
comes aroused on the matter OF the
loss of human life In industry cor
respondingly greater efficiency Will ex.
list In every phase of our business
life.
Hence the problem becomes one
not to be solved alone by those directly
engaged In industry. but share of II
rests on the shoulders of every citizen
of the country. More intensive thrift
thought and practice In the lives Of all
citizens of the country will be reflected
In better safeguards for those engaged
In the various trades and crafts OF
industry.
