 Peter Pelican had never been in a rock candy grotto. though he had been in lot of Grottos along the sea shore.
 The Raggedys had never been in a rock candy grotto either, but they had been in lots of caves and mag ical places.
 Now that we have eaten all the rock candy we wish, Humpylumpy, let us wander farther into the beau tiful Grotto" Raggedy Ann sug- gested.
 So they all caught hold of hands and walked farther into the long hall in the Grotto until they came to a large door. Upon the door was a sign which read Lemon Ice Room"
 "Ah" Humpylumpy cried, T knew that we would find something inter esting" So he pushed open the door and followed by his friends walked inside. Then the door closed with a

RUNAWAY GIRLS
By SOPHIE IRENE LOEB


 Another young woman ran away the other day. A former school chum quotes the runaway as saying;
 T am going to get out of this life of drudgery and routine at all costs. ] am going to have fine clothes and have a more happy and contented life regardless of the cost"
 Who knows where this girl is seeking the fine clothes and the good times? What an awakening she will have. It Is the rare one indeed who goes forth into the fight for pleas ures and palaces and comes out un- scather, the winner by her own eff forts.
 As general thing, she drops by the wayside because she is unable to cope with the temptations and the tragedies that are bound to confront her.
 The only girl who can possibly go out alone under such circumstances and can strike out for herself and build up future. But little does the average garl realize the hardships that will be hers and the miseries and the heatraches and the con- science strokes that she will get
 Yet on the other hand, there Is something to be said about the moth 5 such girls. As a general thing girl rarely runs away until she has gone through considerable unhappiness- perhaps more than she thinks she can bear. Life has been drab and she has perhaps drunk the dregs of discord with her soul.
 I wish it could be brought to the realization of every parent that the one thing a girl needs is beauty in her life and pleasure and recreation, and that it is very hard these days for the average girl to be satisfied as Alice-Sit-by- the Fire with nothing to which to look forward.
 There are many things a parent can do to alleviate this distress The trouble with 1t Is that they do not think of the girl as an individual who Is growing and seeing life all about her and making comparisons and wishing she had the things she knows she can't get.
 But even though parents are put to sore trouble in not having the where withal to gratify all the wishes of their young daughters, yet times without number they fail to do the few things that might be within their reach.
 Some times it is more vital for girl to have pretty hat than a good meal, or a certain kind of dress that SD6 HdS SeL ucI Ou SNSh II ~ isn't so practical.
 Many little affair could be plan ned and devised to bring her friends together. It would take away from the sameness and the sordidness of life as she sees 1t.
 What the average girl needs is little more consideration for her longings and for her desires. She is too often dismissed with the label of efIl, ol,f fc1, IY, d f Inov~ ~fa day it was different. A girls place was the home and only the home. To- day the whole world is open to her where she can see all, and the crav- ings that are part of her soon be- come overwhelming.
 There are two sides to this ques- ton and a happy medium can be es- tablished if both girls and parents were to exercise good judgment and mutual understanding.

OUR OWN PoPULAR SONGS

OUR OWN POPULAR SONGS little girl was seated on a plank out o'er a lake. She hoped to catch a mess ot fish for mother, dear, to bake. A bit of explanation in our song must now be slipped. Iris this the plank was weighted down or else 1t would have tipped. The sister of this happy child had cast aside her beau. She'd said: "I cannot marry you, so beat 1t quickly. Joew Of course that made the fellow mad. An, ha! He sees the child who sits out wonder on the plank and fishes sweet and mild.
 And, as the clock strikes 8;
 He tips the plank in glee.

 The rock candy was very good to eat too.
 For, while it was real for sure Rock Candy, still the Grotto was so cool, 1t made the rock candy taste almost like candy icicles.
 We can eat all we wish" Hum pylumpy told the Raggedys and Peter Pelican as he broke off large pieces of the icicles and passed them to his new friends.
 When we have eaten all the rock candy we wish, we will go further into the Rock Candy Grotto and see what we can find"
 Have you been in the Rock Candy Grotto before, Humpylumpy?" Rag gedy Andy asked.
 "Oh, yesw Humpylumpy replied, "But I have only been this far. But now that there are four of us, we can explore the whole Grotto,, and I am suse we will find something very interesting!

Humpylumpy was not trying to capture the Rag gedys and Peter Pel- ican any more, for he and his brother, the magician, had been quarreling and the magician had promised to change Humpylumpy into a monkey as well as the Raggedys and Peter Pelican.
 Humpylumpy did not wish to be changed into a mon key any more than the Raggedys and Peter Pelican wished it, so he ran through the deep, deep woods and told the Rag gedys that he would be their friend.
 Then he led them to the Rock Candy Grotto.

CENTRAL-"When the Desert
Calls"

Violet Heming, once a great IA
vorite in stock shows here. appears
in the leading feminine role OF
When the Desert Calls" Aim ro-
nance OF modern Egypt, which had
its first local showing yesterday at
Crandalfs Central Theater
Miss Heming has ample opportunity
to display her ability as a portrayer
OF fine emotions in this picture, which
involves dramatic situations of tense
character, laid in a setting of desert
grandeur. She plays the part OF a
cabaret singer who marries the man
she loves and departs with him to
the orient to leave the memories OF
ths old life. After a happy term of
years, in which her husband prospers
in the banking business, an old
prosecutor from the musical halls
turns up and succeeds in temporarily
running the husbands business
couple. They seek solitude in the
desert along different paths and
eventually are brought together
under strange circumstances and
then comes the happy "fadeout."
Supporting Miss Heming are Rob
ert Frazer. Sheldon Lewis, Huntley
Gordon, ]. Barney Sherry. Julia
Swayne Gordon and Tammany Young

acting OF Kathiyn Williams is the
redeeming feature OF a play border
ing on the cheap melodrannatic, lack
ing in originality and not even In
teresting. Though Lewis stone and
Bebe Daniels are advertised as the
principals, the former is cast in a role
that requires practically no acting
and the latter is chiefly interesting G
as a medium for the display OF beau
tifu2 costumes.
The story is that Of a pretty dancer

that she is playing with fire. So the
story moves on to a tragic climax and
q rather tame finish. The role OF q
jealous wife is not one which wins
the sympathy of an audience, but
admirers of Kathlyn Williams will
applaud her performance in this pic
