GENE STRATTON-PORTER'S*
GREATEST NOVEL ON SCREEN
Thirilling   with   all   the   poignant
"beauty   of   the   late   Gene Stratton-
Porter's   greatest   novel,   F.   B. O.'s
big production  of  "Laddie"  -will he
seen here Saturday; and Sunday at, the
Liberty   theatre.     Directed   hy Lea
Meehan,  the famous -writer's son-in-
law, who  also mate the  script,  the
picture adheres faithfully to the original story in every "detail, abounding in
wealth   of   imagery    and   delightful
local color of  a Middle "West, farm. '
Few of Mrs. Porter's hooks  contain ;
such  a variety  of picture material;
none ot them, is more papular.    The ,
progress of the: two idyllic love epi- j
sodes   forms   an   enchanting   screen!
drama,  ancl builds up to a gripping >
climax of sheer artistry. !
The leading roles are taken by-
John Bowers and Bess Flowers, both,
of whom give extraordinarily vivid
portrayals. Other prominent members of the casti include David Tor-
rence, Eugenia Gilbert, Neil Neely,
Fanny Midgley, Arthur Clayton, John !
Fox, Jr., and little Gene Stratton, !
granddaughter of the novelist, whose.!
'work as "Little Sister'*' is a delight. ;
The adaptation from the hook was I

HAY DAYS TO TELL
BETTER CROPS STORY
Improved Handling Methods Will Be
Demonstrated In 30 Counties.
The method of handling hay which
has found to be most efficient in saving the leaves and finer stems -will, be
shown in 30 Michigan counties this
summer, through a series of spjacial
hay days sponsored by the Michigan,
slate college.
j^This" method also saves a great deal,
of labor in handling the crop, according to the' college crops department.
The ordinary machinery used in hay^
ing. "is used in the * demonstrations,
and sweet clover and red clover hay
-nfay be handled this way as well as
alfalfa.

: Arriving in America, the aunt and
uncle took Mr. Barros to Chicago,
where he lived with another uncle
who had come over to this country
some  years  before.    Mr. Parros  at-
(Heb. 12.) It is described as a warfare. "No man that warreth entan,-
gh3th himself" (II Tim. 2:4,) and
here in our text it is likened unto
a voyage, "which hope we have as
an anchor of the Soul' both sure and
tended night school for four month's steadfast" (Heb. 6.19.)
i ion and passion for life. No man
] starts out on a voyage without hope
j of reaching the goal. Sad is the
: plight of that person desc,ribel as
j "without God an,d hope ito the world."
| There are two other prerequisites
- j that I want to mention: The first is
1 power, which I need not emphasize
■ for youth is a storehouse of power.
The question for most of us is not
bow to get more power,, but how to
i have patience to .use what we have
■ properly. Patience then is the vir'-:

■ has liis place in, life, and there is
much  good  sense    in his    counsels.
, Don't,  however,  get inoculated with
; his philosophy too much.
]    Then again our text, or the preced-
j ing verse of our text, says something
about a refuge, "who have fled for
refuge to lay hold upon hope," when
the United States took over the
Philippines it was said that they
would serve the purpose of a refuge
or coaling station for vessels taking
an ocean voyage.
I like to" think of home and parents as a coaling statical, in tlie voyage of life. It's worth while for
young mariners to flee to this refuge
for help, especially in the time of
storm. There is no refuge like it
