Mrs. Hill
Speaks in
Auditorium
Mra. J. I Hill, retired statu presi
dent of the Parent -Teachers associa
tion, gave a very Interesting talk last
eyentng at the high school auditorium,
In connection with the Parent-Teach-ers
work and Education week. She
stated that "the Parent-Teachers' as
sociation of the United States is the
largest organization in tho country
concerning itself primarily with child
welfare. The organization Is founded
upon the love of childhood and Is
for the purpose of supplementing and
co-operating with the schools. It docs
not concern itself with principals of
school administration, it regards
school administrators and teachers as
experts along these lines. She spoke
of tho influence of the parent on the
child in the home' and how vital It Is
for tho child that he be given proper
care and instruction In the home, and
In school how vital It Is that the pa
rent be acquainted with the teacher
and the teacher with the parent, po i
' that by co-operating they may dt
their bust for the child. Along thit
line she made a strong plea for proper
support of .the schools, financially and
otherwise. She said that the school!
and the efficiency of the schools de
pends upon the churacter of the fu
ture citizenship of the country, and in
her last plea Bhc stated that tho char
acter of any community depends upon
the citizenship of adults of that com
munity, and asked that the parents
and teachers co-operate with those of
authority Jn the community to make
the .cleanest possible community. She
urged that proper playground faclli-
, Itles be established, find also stated
that the children unlearn, in the street
more than they learn in the home 01
school." -

thousand extras were engaged during
tho greater part of that period. In
order that each detail of the picture
would be absolutely true to life us It
was lived In Vienna during the fes
Hvo days just preceding the world
war. Director Rupert Julian sent a
staff of specialists to that cily to take
photographs and obtain data on tho
city shown in the film. The most
noteworthy set In the picture, and one
of the greatest pieces of engineering
work ever done in connection with
tho production of the picture, was the
reproduction at Universal City of the
Prater. So marvelous was the like
ness that many of the visitors at the
film capltol had, who had visited the
original, stated that they easily could
Imagine they were in Vienna once
more.
Another unusual happening was the
Importation of the gold-trimmed car
riage, and harness formerly used by
King Charles of Austria, and also of
the army officers' uniforms. In or
der lo obtain these It was necessary
for Universal to file a bond with the
istrtan government and also take
out life insurance policy from Lloyds
at "London.

Henee (Clara Kimball Young), dau
ghter of a derelict trader, now dead,
is mistaken by a native prince for the
reincarnated spirit of the queen who
once dwelt within tho ruined palace
where he first catches sight of the
girl. Frightened, she . prevents her
apt i. re by flashing a mirror In his
eyes and making her escape. She
flees through tho forest and Is mis
taken by another man, this time for
an animal, and he fires at her, wound
ing her slightly as she turns again to
flee. Lerier bathes the wound and
commands the girl, whom he sees Is
afraid of him, to lead him out of the
forest.
When Lerier returns to Paris, He
nee goes with him, and 1b happy until
she understands that a marriage cere
mony is desirable and that Lerier Is
wearying of her nnd returning to his
former love, Almeo Ducharme. Alm-
e has given him a curious stone for
his collection; this Henee destroys in
i fury and then returns to Abyssinia

Lerier also goes back to the spot

prepares to offer him us a sacrifice to
the spirit of the queen. Hence ap

she does without knowing what Is

There are so many fine things in
he new Cioldwyn picture,' "Poverty to
lliehes." by Leroy Scott, that it Is
Ilfflcult to say what Its strongest Im
pression fs. Tho story Is one of fain
ly life, simply told, yet replete with
Jrania, as reul life Is. . The acting of
:hc ull-stur cast leaves nothing to be
leslred: and the story shows actual
irogression In tho unfolding of the
haracters of the people In the photo
play. At the end of the story, life
las tatighL,them something, and they
re different people from the young'
uurrled folks we met at the beginning
if the first reel. It would be unfair
o disclose the plot of the story, but
t Is gripping, entertaining and de
Ighlfully told.
Reginald Barker directed "Poverty
o Hlches." and Injected many subtle
i(s of action that arc rurely seen in
