Entertainment
At Movie Studio
Great Success

The Fort Lee Studios, Inc, on Mon.
day evening entertained several hun.
dred people at their newly renovated
studios on Main street, in Fort Lee.
A portion of the studios was trans.
formed into theatre, where the en-
tertainment program was presented.
There were six vaudeville acts.
Mayor Edward A. White, addressing
the gathering, said in part that he
would do all he could to bring back
the motion picture industry to Fort
Lee. He complimented the groups
who are working hard to bring the
motion picture business to the front
again.
Carl Axtell, who had been in large
measure responsible for the taking
over of the former Peerless Studios by
the Fort Lee Studios, Inc, and remod-
cling them, is a member of the board
OF directors and acted as one of the
reception committee for the occasion.
By the interest manifested by public
officials and representative group of
the people of the borough in bringing
back the lost industry, it looks as
though the dreams of many will come
true in the,near future.

Edison Corp. and Public
Service to Cooperate

Keeping in step with the trend OF
the times in electric power develop
ment and particularly with that phase
of it which has to do with inter
company connections, reciprocal
arrangement has recently been made
between the Staten Island Edison
Corporation and Public Service Elec-
trio and Gas Company whereby 5000
to 10000 kilowatts of power may be
interchanged between the two COM
panies whenever such need arises.
This is one of a number of inter
connections that have been made be-
tween Public Service and adjoining
companies for the exchange of cleo
trical energy and for the petterment
of electric service generally.

MYSTERIOUS FIND
IN LONELY SPOT
GANNETT WOODS

A pair of woman's black silk
stockings, pink and white checked
gingham collar and sash, some
punches of long dark brown hair
and a box containing wire hairpins,
these articles were found beneath
a tree in a lonely section Of the
Ganneston Park estate, just where a
secluded path leads down across n
rustic bridge and into the dense
growth beside one of the ponds.
To add further to the element o.
my stery and give rise to all manner
of conjecture as to the identity and
fate of the woman who left the arti-
cles in the woods, there were two
photographs, one that of a motherly
looking woman of middle age, and
the other picture of two year
old baby, posted on the trunk of
the big white pine tree, under the
spreading branches of which the
articles were found scattered.
A party of girls on a walk through
the shaded pathways of the big
Howard Hill preserve, came across
the mysterious find, and reported
the matter to the authorities. On
Friday Chief of Police w. j. Ske-
han and Joseph Young, Jr., from,
the State Highway Police head
quarters investigated the matter. and
after following out several clues
they were satisfied that the articles
were deposited at the spot by Vivian
Tobey, a girl of 20, who on August
Z, escaped from the State School for
Girls at Hallowell, and who has not
since been apprehended.
Superintendent f. w. Webber and
several girls from that institution
went to the Ganneston Park locality
in company with the Chief Of Police
Friday afternoon and positively iden-
titled all of the articles and the hair
as belonging to the Tobey girl.
Mr.. Webber stated yesterday af-
ternoon that the Tobey girl, who
made a getaway about year ago
and was apprehended in this city and
returned to the school, had made her
boasts that If she escaped again she
would get two other girls out" She
has been seen in an up-river town
within few days, and as the arti-
cles found in the Gannett woods
had not been wet by rain, the Of
ficers believe that the girl has been
back in the vicinity of the Industrial
School within week with the in
tention of making good her boast.
The photograph found attached to
the tree trunk was that of one of
the teachers of the school. and 1t was
the name and notation on the re-
verse, which lead to the solution of
the mystery of the ownership of the
articles.
