SCREEN VERSION MAKES
1128TH TIME FOR “PEG”
Laurette Taylor returned to New
York from Hollywood recently, hav
ing completed before the Metro
camera the enactment of her famous
role in “Peg O’ My Heart,” the cele
brated stage play by J. Hartley Ma
nners, under the direction of King
W. Vidor. The picture is now pre
sented at the Strand Theater here.
Mr. Manners, husband of Miss Tay
lor, served in an advisory capacity
during the production of the photo
play and accompanied his wife on
the trip.
The celluloid version of the in
ternationally successful play marks
the 1128th time that Miss Taylor
has appeared in the role. Her por
trayal of the title part in “Peg” was
her screen debut; and both she and
Mr. Manners are delighted with the
successful transference of the play
to its new form.

with her for 30 seconds, and your
wife will appear—all right—all

Florida —Great Empire to Be.
Two Political Questions.
Deep Plowing Pays.
Dress Up, Girls, Dress Up.
The stock of the Atlantic Coast
Line in Florida reaches a “new
high.” Big profits are made, and
the stockholders exult. If Florida
interests you, or railroad profits,
find out what S. Davies Warfield,
president of the Seaboard Air
Lin-, is doing with his new rail
roa ’ in Florida. When he finishes
the short cut from the West Coast
of Florida across to Palm Beach
and other points, establishing di
rect connection between New York
and Southeast Florida, over his
own rails, there will be an active
flight for business and profits.
There will be plenty of business
f«.r both roads, however. No
imagination can foresee what the
prosperity of Florida is to be.
That State, which, as the Jack
r'-nviile Journal tells you, Jeffer
son could once have bought for
fiv- ents an acre, and ultimately
»i 1 buy for fifteen cents an acre,
is rpt cne day to be in several
different ways the greatest State
in the Union.
Two questions that interest poli
ticians are these:
Can the Democrats be persuaded
to gi"e up the rule that compels a
man to get two-thirds of all the
delegate* before he can be nomi- ;
nated ?
And will the Democrats put in
their national platform a plank
denouncing the Ku Klux Klan, and
thus outlawing many Southern
S’iatcs on whom the Democrats
depend to win?
it is a delicate question and may
le solved by some vague general
ization concerning all secret so
cieties.

In Baltimore, a farmer named
Meyerly is Raid to be plowing up
a good wheat field,* with a sub
soil plow, having been told there
la gold in his land. He won’t find
gold, but if he plows deeply
enough, and plows his wheat un
der, he will improve his soil, and
increase his farm’s value.
T\; the second part of Faust,
Goethe tells of the farmer plowing
deep because under the Emperor’s
law he was allowed to keep all
buried treasure, “turned over by
the plow.” That was probably an
ingenious scheme to make the
farmer plow deeper, make his soil
richer, and thus be able to pay
heavier taxet.
The State of Kentucky killed
three men by electricity, two
white, one colored, one white man
seventy years old. Forty-six
minutes after they began walking
to the death chair, one after the
other, all were dead. Only one
spoke, as he was strapped into
the chair. It was Frank Thomas,
white man, who said, as the light
was shut out from his eyes for
ever by the electrocution mask.
“Good night, I’m going home.”
Wouldn’t it be interesting to
know where, how, in what home
those three men will awake—if
at all. Will tho black man still
be black, when he comes to and
dimly remembers how he died?
Will the gray-haired murderer
still be seventy years old, or begin
again as a new baby ? Interest
ing questions.
College young ladies, of the
Young Women’s Christian Asso
ciation, tell working girls to dress
“plainly and demurely” for their
souls’ sake and to impress possi
ble husbands with their good
qualities. Sensible Helen Gwvnne,
retiring president of the Y. W.
C. A., who is a factory worker,
and has presided over an assem
bly of 30,000 factory girls, tells
these girls to dress as conspicu
ously as they can, “even flashily.”
| The rich girl, says Miss Gwynne,
can afford to dress plainly. That
sets her off in her luxurious sur
roundings. But the working girl,
in her plain home, must dress as
well as she can, by way of con
trast with her surroundings, if she
wants to marry. Sensible Miss
Gwynne.
An automobile smash-up with
Jesse James hurt reveals the fact
that the son of the great highway
man now works as a patrol to pre
vent highwaymen holding up auto
mobiles.
