P h t i T r LEGEND OF NIAGARA
Movies But Where?
How the Great L a k e s Joined In T h e ir
Wonurous Leap Over the F a ­
mous Ridge.
Investigation discloses a com­
plicated condition in the moving
picture show field in Estaeada,
with plenty of rumors of early
openings hut nothing definite.
A peculiar “Alphonse and Gas­
ton” spirit of unselfishness seems
to be in evidence, with the sever­
al picture show promoters each
refusing to enter the field, if a
competitor desires to open up.
While there is little liklihood
of both the Boner and Family
theatres being conducted w i t h
this popular form of amusement,
one or the other should be open­
ed soon, for the public wants the
amusement and plenty of money
is in circulation to pay for it.
In old, old tim es, on th e h ighest
penk of a g re a t m ountain, th e re dw elt
a n u u te r and h is five sp a rk lin g dau g h ­
te rs. T h e ir lodge w as of b rig h t betula
h ark and on c le a r days they could see
th e d ista n t ocean flashing like a silver
band. “Come o u t ! Come o u t !” cried
th e youngest d a u g h te r, th e little Er.
“Come S u ! Com e I lu ! Come M l! Come
Cla ! (T h e nam es sta n d in o rd e r fo r
E rie, S uperior, H uron, M ichigan and
St. C la ir). L e t ns aw ay to th e sea,
w h ere th e foam ing b re a k e rs r o a r ! " So
th ey left th e ir lodge and leaped and
san g w ith hap p y h e a rts . T h e ir robes
w ere of blue an d ch ry so lite green and
floated on th e breeze. T h e ir m occasins
w ere of frozen w a te r d ro p s a n d th eir

pered and rom ped ac ro ss th e plain or
floated b en eath th e sky. o r ru sh e d p a st
valley and hill a n d field, singing and
sh o u tin g w ith glee. At la s t they cam e
to a precipice of jag g ed ro ck s and

th a t w e m ust go on o r o u r fa th e r will

So over th e ste e p th ey s p ra n g and

T h e y leaped an d th ey sa n g like happy-

And u p and dow n th e five m a id s
