Much as we re fret that thU suould be put Into print at this time we cannot deny a citizen ' of the standing of George Huffmanl apace In his borne paper to explain' Sis nlde of any question.

Automobile own. era who break the law should be pun Jibed, as we have said repeatedly, but Ac manner In which the whole thing Iwa come about takes away the weight at the desire to enforce the law In Arcade Theatre CINDERELLA BUNK7 COMEDY WATSON SISTERS PINE VAUDEVILLE The charming Clara Norrls, of El gin, and her gallant lover must have been reading Shakaapear to some pur pose. It was a favorite device of the great master to dress up bis heroine In male attire and make her flea from her lawful guardians as Miss Norrls has done. Shakeapear seldom permit ted bis hero and heroine to dwell to gether in the woods without a chap erone, but that Is a mere Incident We cannot expect real life to follow the model of tio drama exactly In all particular. ... ,. .

Rosalind posud as a man during the entire episode of the sojourn In the forest of Arden. Nobody who has witnessed the play finds her any the leas charming for her adventure. As for Imogene, she put on men's garments In order to facilitate the search for her unfaithful husband. This does not differ easen tlally from the plight of Miss Norrls, who has donned them In order A.0 win a husband. In our opinion the prize Is worth the effort. The root of Mis Norrls troubles lies In the fact that she Is only 17 years old. The law does not believe that she Is sufficiently mature to se' lect a husband for herself, and there fore, If the lover, young Hopson, Is caught, , It may go hard with him. In the eye of the courts he Is a felon. But love has always been In the habit of laughing at courts and other ancient Institutions. It is prone to take mat ter by storm and think of conse quences only when It is too late. Fond as we are of romance, we cannot fully approve of Hopson'a con duct It k earns as If he might have waited another year until bis sweet heart had reached the proper age to decide the momentous question of marriage for herself. If he could not trust her to wait, perhaps he might have consoled himself with another bride lu due time. But 'now, the mis chief la done and the. authorities, are confronted with . a practical-Question for solution. .Which la . better, . to make a felon of Hopson by prosecut ing him to the last notch of the law or to permit him to dwell in peace with the girl who lore him? Which will be more agreeable to think of In hundred years? Portland Oregon Ian. . .
