Whispered Speech and
Received Big Ovation
A prominent suburbanite, who is well
known as a speaker in fraternal or-
ganizations, recently had occasion to
go to a northern city to make ah ad:
dress at a dedication.
When he arrived in the city he was
#0 hoarse that he could scarcely be
heard. The committee of reception
was dismayed. “Why not take some
Turkish baths today?” was suggested.
“All right,” he responded in a whis-
per, “I'll try it.” So he went through
a steaming process, and sure enough,
in the evening his voice had com~
back to him to an extent.
When he arose at the meeting he
apologized by saying that he had prac-
tically lost his voice, but, that after
years, he would put into practice a
precept of an old elocution professor,
to whisper so that everyone who would
be attentive could understand each
word. So he whispered his speech.
He was given an ovation—the great-
est he had ever had. Later, in speak-
ing of it, he sald: “That was one of
the principles laid down by Professor
Neff years ago.
“He asserted that articulation was
necessary in public speaking and that
the voice could be pitched in any key
or could be loud or soft. I remember
as though it were yesterday when I
stood on a platform In a large hall and
whispered to him as he sat at the
other end of the hall. He heard me
perfectly. It was all due to articule
tion.”—Philadelphia Record.
Chronic Worry Never
Solved Real Problem
We all know the chronic werrier!
The woman who always sees calamity
ahead. Each new event that comes
or threatens to come, is for her a new
matter of apprehension. ge
To be sure, most of the things she
worries about never happen, and the
real problems of her life are not the
things she foresaw in time to fear.
But the fact remains that she squan-
ders her vitality and her nervous sys-
tem, maybe ruins her good digestion, .
and brings wrinkles into her face.
worrying.
~ And she accomplishes nothing with
all this tremendous waste of emotion,
Things happen just as they would
have if she could have remained calm
and tranquil about things.—Montreal

Islands Part of America
The Virgin islands in the Caribbean
sea were purchased from Denmark
for $25,000,000. The purchase was
made during the World war to shut
Germany out of a possible submarine |
base. But negotiations for the Islands |
bad gone on infermittently for a half
century. Secretary Seward first opened ,
close of the Civil war. Denmark agreed,
the. purchase was arranged and the
king bade farewell to his subjects,
then Sumner in the senate killed the
ratification of the treaty. On arlother
occasion negotiations proceeded to 8
final stage, only to be rejected by the
Danish parliament. The price paid
amounted to about $300 an acre for
land worth for peace time purposes

Nursery for Children |
Some young mothers are sc exer
ised over the thought of germs that
they won't let their babie: or children
play on the floor, They let them tum-
ble or sit Wp to a table to play. Now
really, this seems a shame when chil-
dren of all ages enjoy “scooting
around” so much. No cutting table or
dining table can compare with a floor
for a place en which to build blocks or
set up railroad tracks. Why don't these
people have a nursery with a floor kept
clean enough and dustless enough to be
played upon? - Have this room kept for
the children to play in and see that
they wear little house slippers or san-
dals when playing there and that no
grown-up enters who wears shoes that
have trod the streets.
The Foreman’s Report
‘A spinster living in a London sub-
arb was shocked at the language used
by two men repairing telegraph wires
close to her house.
She wrote to the company on the
matter, and the foreman was asked
to report.
This he did in the following way:
“Me and Bill Fairweather were on
this job. I was up the telegraph pole,
and accidentally let the hot lead fall
on Bill. It went down his neck. Then
he said: ‘You really must be more
careful, Harry.'”
Romeo and Juliet
i can't bear to think Americans as
a race are unromantic, but the evl-
dence all around me is fairly strong.
Por instance, ask the average modern
flapper if she thinks Romeo and Juliet
are Shakespeare's saddest lovers, and
she may say, “Saddest? You mean,
sappiest! Gee! It's hard enough
nowadays to find someone you can live
with, let alone dying with them !”—
From “If I Know What I Mean,” by
Risie Janis.
Congenial Tree
One time as Toofus is going along
the trail a leaf drops right into his
band, Toofus is pleased, stops and
makes talk with tree.
Along comes Willow Plume and says,
“Toofua, I told you that you must not
talk te trees. People will ¢hink you
are nutty.”
«I did not intend to talk,” Toofus
said, “but this tree hands me his visit:

PRESENTING THE BETTER CLASS PHOTOPLAY
Weeks-Ahead Program
SATURDAY, JANUARY 30:
THE SPLENDID CRIME, headed by BEBE DANIELS and NEIL HAMIL-
TON. Here is an exceptionally fine picture, directed by William De Mille and
hot off the press. For those who enjoy a sparkling crook comedy drama, laid
against a contrasting slum and society background, tinctured with romance
and rich in humor and pathos, this photoplay will fill the bill from soup to
nuts. See it yourself. Also, a first run two reel comedy, FIRED. :
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 1:
HANDS UP, featuring none other than that clever RAYMOND GRIFFITH.
Now here is a picture that we consider to be the last word in comedy. A rip-
snorter of the Civil war period. The hero, a dashing Confederate spy, has a.
mad and merry time outwitting his Union enemies, battling Indians, fighting.
road agents and making love to two pretty girls at one time. Lincoln freed
the slaves and Griffith frees the laughs. Also, Pathe News, Aesop’s Fables and
a single Educational reel, WHIRLPOOL OF EUROPE. Ra
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 2 AND 3:
WHY WOMEN LOVE, featuring BLANCHE SWEET and ROBERT FRA-
ZER. Adapted from William Robertson's stage play, The Sea Woman. What
a drama of the sea this picture unfolds! One of the most powerful produc-
tions of it's kind that has ever been produced. It’s a First National picture”
and has some real thrills, especially when a ship carrying a cargo of oil blows
up and burns, converting the water into an-inferno. Also, a Mack Sennett first
run two reel comedy, HOW COME! LB Le teri 0 pase
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4: 3 fit
THE PEOPLE vs.. NANCY PRESTON, starring MARGUERITE dé la’
MOTTE and JOHN BOWERS. A rapid story of the underworld of New York
and one that is packing them in all over the circuit. Here is a picture you
wouldn't want to miss, so please remember the date. Also, Pathe News and
Review. :
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5:
THE TRAIL RIDER, featuring CHARLES (Buck) JONES, in another of
those fast moving western pictures built especially for him, and one of this
star's best efforts. Also, 4th chapter of the serial, THE GREEN ARCHER. |
~MOOSE-TEMPLE THEATRE.
THIS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY:
GO WEST, featuring Buster Keaton. You should see him driving cattle:
down Broadway. A regular Keaton comedy, chock full of laughs. ‘
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 5 AND 6:
THE AMERICAN VENUS. Here is a show that ought fo educate a lot
of us. It has a lot of good figures in it. Take it in and you'll like it.
