Heart of Humanity
At Vining Theatre

At the Vining theatre Wednesday
and, Thursday will tip ehown the
great war picture, "The Heart of
Humanity." If Allen Hoi u bar's mas
ter production, "The Heart of Hu
manity," were a war play pure and
simple; if it merely depicted the
heroism of men In battle, or the suf
fering of those who waited and
wept at home, however graphically
the picture might have been drawn,
he would have fallen far-short of
his object. The war is over. Tha
choking suspense which gripped the
throat of the world no longer ex
ists. Still is the clarion call whicl;
,aeattwo million knights of Idealism
'. across the ocean to slay the dragon
. of Might, and which quickened the
hearts of a hundred million people
Their work is done. A hundred
" thousand of those knights will never
come back. Their blood has sane
' titled the ground where they fought.
Their praise has been sung, and
their spirit is enshrined in the mem
cry of their loved ones and those
for whom they fought so valiantly

After an unprofitable and du

years the Ashland Record which, two
years ago was taken over on a mort
gage from Mr. Wolfe, has been sold

velopment projects. The new own
lers took possession a couple of weeks
'iago. It is understood for the p'res

about dusk he started back to camp with buckshot. Returning with thlfv

of a mile, when ho saw two cub fired many times Into the tree top,
bears scampering up the road, ani but only brought forth growla ami
a monster liear In tho edge of the
brush. wVot thinking of his small Pinniiv Mr vinu. i- r-
grew weary of tho unfruitful sport
and returned to camp, leaving the
others to watch till daybreak. Tuos
men accordingly made a bed under
the tree containing the boar cubs,,
and proceeded to keep watch, think
Ing that the mothor bear would re
turn by daylight. A long cold night,
was spent under the trees wltts only
an auto rug for a bed. Every new
and then yelps would come from th
tree top and a shower of twigs anH
Urk would fall upon them.
About 5:30 o'clock in the morn
ing Prof. Vining espied one of th
cubs on a limb, just as the car with
Mr. Vining and Mr. Emery arrived
on the scene. . Tho little anfmaF

alighting on Emery. Every em

Prof. Vining went back to the cmui
the first time, and tho huntfrs w-ero
startled to think th,ry had, lain air
night under a tree containing ink -Infuriated
bear.
The animals were skinned aiiiH '
the pelts will bo dressed- and used '
as rugs for the new Vining camp- atv :
soon as completed. The denfzeim :
of the Lake of the Woods bavo lxetj
dining on beat; moat during the rest
supply of ammunition, Prof. Vining
fired at the old bear as she went into
the brush. It was so dark that he
shot by guess, but the cubs took
fright and shinned up a big tree by
tho road side.
The tree was bare, of limbs 'for
abou(t fifty feet, with very dense
foliage at the top. The hunter fired
at one of the cubs as it scooted up
the tree and the shot evidently took
effect for the little animnl squealed,
but continued clambering up until
it reached refuge In the foliage. Tho
alarm ot the cub enraged tho bear
in the brush, und she -began to tear
things up In general,
" Realizing the scarcity of ammuni
tion and deciding that discretion is
the better part of valor, Prof. Vin
ing decided that as It was quite dark
In the woods and as be had only one
shell left, ho had better hurry bnck
to camp fo- more ammunition aud
help.
He feachod camp in stiorl order
and securen his cartridge belt and
flash light, anl 'cnipanicl by his
brother Ralph hurried back lo the
tree where the bear ' cubs were
squ?aliug In tho tup, hut ihey were
too high to be 'len with the High
light. Once in a 'hllo they cuuld
Bee the shining eyes of the animals
In the tree, at which they shot sev
eral time, but with no result.
Wearying of this mode of farfare
with the anima's, Mr. Ralph Vining
went back to ca-np to pet his auto
mobile in the hO)e that the bis spot

Private Harold It. Peat, who comes to Chautauqua on the slvlh night, Is
unquestionably the best-known war lecturer In the country today. His own
tory, 'Trlvate Feat," has been one of the biggest selling Ixioks everywhere
for the last two years. His articles in the Saturday Evening Post and other
magazines have attracted wide comment.
He was a member of the first Cunndlnn contingent and spent two years
In France and Flanders. He 'us one of the heroic Canadluns In that pitiably
thin line that stood between the Germans and the chunnel ports in the early
days of the war. He saw his company, ammunition exhausted, surrounded
by Huns and raptured. He lay fifty-two hours on the buttlefleld, "my shoul
der smashed, my lung punctured, ribs caved In aud a few other trifles busted
and dislocated."
; ' His lecture subject will be the same as his film released lately and one of
the Saturday Evening Tost articles, 'Two Years in Hell and Bnck With a
Smile." J
