Spot Thof Made History

The bridge over the River AIDA at
Lodi, Italy, is famous as the scene OF
4 terrible contest between the French
under Bonaparte and the Austrians
under Beaulieu, May 10, 1886. The
Austrians were strongly intrenched on
the opposite bank Of the AIDA and
their formidable artillery swept the
bridge, but Bonaparte, charging at the
head of his gren0diers bayoneted the
cannoneers at their guns and drove the
defeated Austrians into the mountains
Of the Tyrol. AS a result of this vic
tory, Milan capitulated to Bonaparte a
few days later. This battle is frequent

The Fly FleW

An art critic, speaking of the virtues
Of this painting and the faults Of that
one, finally came to picture in the
gallery and said: "Now, you see in
this picture the artist has not learned
his trade-it lacks technique and un-
derstanding. His trees seem to have
no form; they do not stand up; the
grass has no roots. His clouds look
like bits Of paper stuck on the canvas.
And here you see lie has resorted to
trick to catch the public eye and has
attempted to paint fly. Now, would
not object to the fly, had he been able
to draw better and make it look like
fly. This fly looks like a lump of mud
and has not the character of fly"
At this point the fly, having tired of
the critics rambling, took wing and
flew away.

CONDITIONS STABLE;
WAGES STILL ADVANCE

NEW YORK, June 18.-"There has
been little change in business condi-
tions in the past month, but on the
whole confidence is stronger" accord
ing to the monthly report of the Ma
tional City Bank.
"Price-declines and pessimistic talk
would naturally prompt postpone
ment of orders wherever possible,
but the situation has held its strength
much better than last year at this
time. Consumption, measured by past
records, is at a high rate, but not
quite up to productive capacity, hence
sharp competition and unsatisfactory
net returns"
Some experts seem to see danger in
the building outlook, but in the metro
politant district is heard the vibrant
hum of the ironworkers' air hammers
and the musical cling of the bricklay-
ers' trowels. "Bricklayers wanted"
signs are up and all finishing trades
will soon be at a premium. Building
materials are less in relative cost than
any time in two years and this is
stimulating construction.
The Labor Bureau, Inc, comedies
with the optimistic view, saying there
has been no serious damper on bust
ness for several months, wages have
remained stable and about 20 per cent
more wage earners are employed than
at the low point last year, so that
the buying power of the Industrial
population has strengthened the mar
ket. Farmers are also better of than
in many years.
The wage increases between April
and May are large because of the re-
newal of agreements in unionized
trades, with the trend generally IA
vorable to the workers. Workers in
building and paper trades have been
particularly successful in getting IN
creases. Earnings in basic industry
due to less full-time employment
shows falling off in April. Improve
ment and better employment is look
ed for.

latest William Fox starring vehicle,

Mix enjoyed performing the thrill
ling feats Of Dick Turpin in merrie
England, but there were many Incl
dents in the course Of producing
"Riders of the Purple Sage" to in
dictate he was happy to be back in a
western settin. He is always plan
ming deeds of new daring.
One of his most brilliant feats in
"Riders of the Purple Sage" is his
escape when ambushed by hired as
sassins Of his arch enemy, an UNI
scrupulous cattleman. At the first
volley, Mix tumbles from the saddle
as Il wounded, taking with him one
end of his lariat. The other end is
lnotted to the pummel of his saddle.
When he has tied the loose end Of
the lariat to big sage bush, he sig
mails Tony to proceed. Crouched on
his improvised sage bush sledge, Mix
is shielded from view Of the gunner
by the intervening brush. By the
time they have reached the spot
where Mix tumbled from his horse,
he has been drawn to safety by the
faithful Tony. He mounts and gal
Tops away.
Mix had been studying the prob
lem of how to escape from ambush.
The idea Of the sage bush sledge came
to. him spontaneously while making
the scene. There are many other in
cidents of great daring in "Riders of
the Purple Sage at the D & R until

NOW PLAYING AT THE D 8 R

"The Childreh's Aid Society Of New
York, IS or 20 years ago, brought
children to the West and into Texas
by the carload" said Mr.. StockweII,
turning again to Mrs. Smiths state
ments. ''But that has changed.
Some States have enacted laws COM
polling outside organizations to post
a bond to guarantee that such child
rem viii not become public charges.
Public sentiment has operated also
to check the practice. Texas has no
bond law, but in the natural course
of events the practice has been largely
stopped. The organization has not
placed over so children in Texas in
the last four years and we have not
had one letter Of complaint about
any child placed by it, though we
have had complaints about Texas
children placed by Texas people and
Texas agencies. l investigated IA
cases in one country-all of children
placed by the New York Organiza-
tion-and on the whole found the
children well placed"
1t is Mr.. Stockwell's conclusion
that Texas needs better laws and that
it's main problem is to provide safe
guards for Texas orphans who are
now largely dependant on chance,
with the chances at least $3.50
against them.

TEXAS TAKES NO HEED
OF ADOPTED CHILDREN.

FORT WORTH, Texas, June 49,
When Mrs. Bennett Smith of Temple,
Texas, addressing the Child Labor
Welfare Conference in New York
City, charged that thousands of waits
are shipped from New York to be-
come "child slaves" in Texas, she ran
headlong into contradictions in this
State.
Roy Stoclwell, superintendent
Texas Children's Home and Aid So
ciety, said today that Mrs. Smith
greatly exaggerated the situation re-
garding the influx of New York or
phans, adding, however, that her
charges Of lack Of supervision in this
State are correct.
Mr.. Stockwen joined in the arraign-
ment Of Texan laxity of supervision,
characterizing the condition as de-
plorabIe. 81 know there are inspec-
tors whose business it is to inquire in
to conditions of child employment and
child welfare" he continued, "but In
four years here l have not seen one.
sour adoption law is almost no
law. No court proceeding is nee
essary. The State provides prac-
tically no supervision of adopted
children and the only safeguarding
agencies are those Of private char
acter, such as our own. A great
many children in Texas lead hard
lives and are poorly cared for as a
result Of this combination of cur
cumstances."
It is not children coming into Tex
as from New York that are the suf-
ferers, 50 much as it is Texas child
rem, according to Mr.. Stockwell,
About 1000 children are adopted per
year and about half this number are
adopted into tenant farmer families.
For the children this usually means
poor care and hard work.
zone of our difficulties" said Mr..
Stockwell, ''is the poverty of our
rural school system. There are far
too many schools open only for four
and five month terms, too little care
as to what happens to adopted chill
dren."
State laws which to some extent
protect children in industry in Texas
do not reach farm children, and while
this condition is not peculiar to Texas
the lot Of the tenant farm children is
worse than in many States, though
by no means to extreme as to be
characterized as worse than the lot
Of children in the States where sim
liar agricultural conditions exist.
