I Madge Evans, as stated at the be ginning of this review, has the first requisite for a successful screen ca reer a winning personality. She is .'also a level-headed small person and does her bit with the calm assurance of an experienced actress. The sup porting company includes Pinna Nes bit as Jerry's mother, Jack Drumier as the Earl, James Davis as Jim Daw son, Patrick Foy as Jim Snyder, Sheri dan Tansey as Billy and Maxine El liott Hicks as Sophia Dawson. Jack Drumier's performance of the Earl is particularly meritorious, and . little Miss Hicks is, as droll as ever in the role of the bogus heiress.

Balancing a plate of beef and beans, a tin-cup of coffee and a knife, fork and spoon while 'choosing a smooth, hard spot some where on the landscape for a dinner table is no snap. In temporary camp there wil! be no time for fancy breakfasts. If he gets fried bacon,' boiled potatoes, bread and coffee he may count himself lucky. For lunch, the chances are, he'll get canned corn beef, or fried bacon or canned salmon, cold canned tomatoes, hard or fresh bread and coffee. For dinner he'll most likely get canned soup, boiled or roast beef, mashed potatoes, peas, corn "or suc cotash, bread and coffee.

(Editor of Observer) As many of my old time friends are deluging me with letters as to the loss of cur two hotels here by fire, many of whom are readers of the Observer, I winh to tvink them through your paper for their interest manifested in me; and say to them that the two splendid buildings with their furnishings are in ashes, which required the ambi tion and energy of almost fifty years together with an expenditure of more than twenty thousand dollars, drawn together by piecemeal, to place there. The value in dollars and cents is noth ing to be compared with the loss of dear keepsakes which money cannot replace; that pulls heavy on a person's heart strings. We fought the flames until too late to save but little of anything. We walked off in our shirt-sleeves bare-headed, wreaking with perspira tion. We turned to bid a last good- bye to dear old relics that the cruel, forked, fiery flames leaping Heaven ward were swallowing up. The battlefield today represents thousands of feet of twisted, crooked, bent pipes, bathtubs and iron makes a person cross-eyed to look at it fit for nothing but shrapnel and is a generous donation if needed. But we are not going to go away back and sit down and say the game is made all down and no more. We are going to brush it aside and go on; See This Wonderful Film "MOW AUTOMOBILES ARE MADE" , f - In f? f? fi? fl? fi?

German Barred From Schools In Cleveland Cleveland, 0., Sept. 1. (United Press) Dr. Frank E. Spaulding to day became superintendent of Cleve land's schools. One of the first ac complishments of his administration will be the elimination of the study of German from the grammar grades. Spaulding will be paid $12,000 a year the largest salary of any school superintendent in America. He came here from Minneapolis. He demand ed and has been given a free hand here, such as he had in Minneapolis. The new superintendent promises red-blooded Americanism as one of the cardinal principles of his administra tion. He has personally read each text book searching out any germ of pro-Kaiserism that may have crept in. Whiskered Kis Takes Place Of American Shake American Field Headquarters, Aug. 10.
