Will Get It, Or It Is Not Made" The Kid, a sprightly Miss of seven teen, Is overjoyed at receiving an appointment on the staff of the New York Herald, through the Influence of Joe Hazard, the star reporter, who has brought her up as his daughter. To arm her properly for the battle of ! life, Joe tells her the story of how her mother's downfall was brought ! about. Her mother, he tells her, was i betrayed by a man named Dunster ' in her home town. Joe bad befrlend t ed her and when her child (The Kid) was born, and the mother died, Joe i had decided to bring tho child up ' himself. With a final warning to beware the pitfalls of the great city, Joe takes her to the Herald office to begin her career. Soon after, when the price of meat shows an alarming rise, the Herald assigns the Kid to unearth the cause, and thus save the lives of the count less children of the slums whose par ents would have been vnable to pur chase meat at the increased price. While on the hunt for particulars, the Kid sees Robinson, one of the large cattle owners of the West who has come to the city for a business trip. She follows him, waits while he has his shoes shined and then, when turning a corner, loses him in the crowd. Hurrying home, she as sumes the disguise of a bootblack and obtains a position at tho stand where she had left Robinson. True to her expectations, Robinson ap pears that day, and while shining his shoes she hits on a clue. That day, Robinson 's wife, a charity worker, is murdered while riding in her car, ami the murderer makes goou his escape. Sometime later, the Kid manages to i.ntaln a position in the offio5 of Eob inscn and geU evidence which hhe be lieves him not only connected with the manipulation of the meat market, but nlso with the murder of his wife. She arranged to have two detectives planted in tho room next day to get further evllence of his connection with the murder, but they overhear a conversation which convinces them that Hlldalgo, manager of Robinson's cattle enterprises is the real murder er and he is taken into custody. The Kid also Bwears out a warrant for Robinson for his connection with the rise in meat but Joe Hazard, seeing and recognizing Robinson, tells the Kid that he is her own father, Dun ster, under an assumed name. Dun ster also learns that the Kid is his daughter and begs leniency. She Anally secures his freedom after ex acting a promise from him to devote a portion of the money he has un lawfully gained to charity, but when he comes to claim a daughter's love, she turns to one who has been her "daddy" for all these years and leaves Dunster a broken-hearted man, Sun day and Monday at the Star Theatre. Coming to Star Theater Friday and Saturday is "The Saintly Sin ner," another Bluebird photoplay. The excellent reputation this series of picture dramas has. established will be cleverly maintained in the new attraction. "The Saintly Sin ner" will be a play out of the ordi nary,' based upon uncommon theories and worked out with well sustained interest to the very end. Ruth Stone house, who will be pleasurbly recall ed as the star of "Love Never Dies," an earlier Bluebird, will be the hero ine of the story with Jack Mulhall appearing as her leading man. Very sensational and exciting will be the episodes in the "Saintly Sinner" and screen fans who like excitement to attend their hour at the theater will be abundantly supplied with thrills In the rapid action and surprises the play affords. Old Timer Makes Visit. - Among the many old time resi dents of Morrow county who were here to attend the fair was W. H. Hayes of Pendleton.

Mr. Hayes came over primarily to put through a deal for a wheat ranch in the Black Horse country. If successful in the transaction, he will place his son Robert on the ranch. Mr. Hayes lived in Morrow county about twenty-three years ago, owning a ranch on upper Hinton creek, which he sold to D. Cox. J. H. Estes and M. J.
