AT THE COLONIAL
The many admirers of Clara Kimball
Young are enjoying her latest vehicle.
"The Heart of the Blue Ridge," im
mensely, as It not only gives her op
j portunlty to make the most of her fas
cinating mannerisms and looks, but in
it she essays a role that is a departure
from what she has already played. The
attraction played to capacity audiences
at the Colonial yesterday, and it will
undoubtedly duplicate this sucess to
day. Plutina. a girl in the heart of the
moonshining district, beloved by Zeke,
a young countryman, wro has a
rival in Dan Hodges, the keeper of an
Illicit still, which is sought after bv
the revenue authorities. The two men
quarrel bitterly. Plutina's pet hear la
killed by Dan Hodges, who subsequent
ly nearly murders Plutina. But the in
tervention of Zeke saves Plutina and
Dan Hodges Is killed. Friday and
Saturday of this week "The Raven,"
Essanay's splendid dramatization of the
life of Edgar Allen Poe and his master
piece, will be the attraction.—Adver

MAJESTIC VAUDEVILLE
Brand new things vaudevillian burst
on our vision at the Majestic to-day
with, one exception and this is the sen
sational spectacle, "A Mile a Minute,"
which will hold forth throughout the
week. The popularity of this exciting
playlet hasn't been duplicated at the
Walnut street playhouse, so those who
have seen it once will enjoy it equallv
as well a second time. Chief of the
new vaudeville bill for the last half
of the week will be Minerva Coverdale
and company presenting an original
comedy called "Nowhere In Particular."
Miss Coverdale will have the assist
ance of three players and her sketch
Is said to abound with comedy sur
prises. A pleasing skit of songs, talk
and patter will be offered by Dickin
son and Deagon, a clever and pleasing
young couple; Dancing Mars, jc lever
couple of classic dancers, are slated to
present a series of spectacular dances,
and Brent Hayes, vaudeville's most
popular banjosit, will lend his music
to the bill, too. Interesting features
in moving pictures will be included In
the performances.—Advertisement.

To Spend $2,000,000 For
Forests and Water Sheds
Washington. D. C„ Nov. 11. —One of
the Important questions to be brought
to the attention of Congress early in
the forthcoming session will be the
re-enactment of the Weeks law pro
viding for the expenditure of $2.-
000,000 annually by the federal gov
eminent for the acquisition of moun
tain forest lands and watersheds
necessary for the protection of stand
ing timber and navigable waters.
This popular law. which was
adopted by Congress in March, 19] i,
expired during the past summer, hut
the good work accomplished through
its provisions during the four years o*f
its operation has led to a general de
mand for its re-enactment, with the
result that the American Forestry As
sociation, Senator John W. Weeks, of
Massachusetts, who was author of the
original measure, and others inter
ested in the national conservation
movement, have announced their in
tention of urging early action by
Congress.
During the oomparatvely short life
oi the original Weeks law, the De
partment of Agriculture sent agents
into Georgia. Maine, New Hampshire,
North Carolina, South Carolina,
Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia
to make surveys of the timber lands
and watersheds in those States, with
the result that 1.317,1 acres of land
were approved for purchase by the
government, at a cost of approximate
ly $5,000.000, the total amount pro
vided in the Weeks law for the four
years work.
"It Is of national importance that
the mountain watersheds be protected
so that the streams may be capable of
the highest development, and that the

Posters Urge Immigrants to
Prepare For Citizenship j
The Department of the Interior, |
through its Bureau of Education, has J
issued a lithographed poster, 30 by 20
inches in size, which is being sent to i
the various post offices, public schools,
and industrial establishments of the
country, urging immigrants to educate ]
themselves for American citizenship. I
In the foreground the poster "Uncle

by means of this pictorial and written
invitation immigrants will have their I
attention called to the night schools j

there is any considerable number oft
immigrants and no night schools the!
