Don’t criticise • your neighbor’s
faults, no matter what they db.
Don’t ridicule the masses or malign
the chosen few.
Don’t think yourself a censor for the
: silly human flock,
And just remember ns you go, that
any fool can knock.
Don’t laugh at those who made mis
takes and stumble on the woy.
For you are apt to follow them—and
almost any day.
Don’t think the others shifting sand,
while you are solid rock,
And don't forget, for heaven’s sake
that any fool can knock.
Don’t be a puller-down of'fame on
other men conferred,
- Don’t give a parting kick to one who
fell because he erred.
Don’t think that you are perfect and
the only size in stock,
And now,, once more, just bear in
mind that any fool can knock.

CHEATING THE PUBLIC’
“Cheating t hePublic,” a William
ox 1918 cinemelodramatic message
caling with food profiteering and
thee hild labor problem will be shown
at the DeSoto Theatre next Friday.
The scene of the story is a factory
town and the life depicted there is
declared to be a cross section cut
from human nature. The production
though strong in love interest, tells
principally of thes trugglo of the
people of the town to earn an honest
living under almost impossible handi
caps imposed upon them by John Dowl
ling, master of Millvale, who not qnly
is the richest man in town, but con
stantly is growing richer through op
pression of his workers and the ad
vancing of the prices of then ecessi-
tics of life.
Cheating the Public” is billed as
a cinemelodrama and Is declared to
abonnd in thrilling scenes. There is
an electric chair in operation,
ries of food riots, a thrilling night
rare between a tram and an automo
bile, an dthroughout the production
is emphasized the greedy, grasping
nsture of the profiteer shd the cruelty
of the slave-driving “Bull” Thomp
son, who is his factory foreman. The
production is one of thes ort that peo
ple talk.about after they have left
the theatre—a melodrama with a
message.
In the large all-star cost are Enid
Harkey, Ralph Lewie, Bertram Grass-
Tom Wilson, Charles Edler, Wan-
Fannie Migsley and Frankie
