Neilan.. Jimmie McBride Carrie Clarke Warde.. .Mrs. Semple Judy Abbott does not have loving parents, kind friends and a pleasant home like other little girls. She lives in a big orphan asylum where things move by machinery, where children are raised on the "wholesale plan, where the head matron is a tyrant in skirts, the trustees are crabbed and none too interested and where the loving interest which children most need for their development and happiness is completely absent. Judy, whose full name is Jerusha, reached this great - heartless home, founded by a man who had made his money from convict labor, and who consequently put prison discipline into operation at the asylum, when she was a baby. About the time a rich little girl named Angelica Wyckoff was entering upon a pampered existence Judy was put into an ash can wrapped in a few rags by sonieone unknown. Thence the poor little waif was taken'to the John Grier Home For Orphans, where she was named from a telephone book. She got along as best she could until the age of twelve, when she began to be more or less of a personality about the home. Of a bright, sunshiny disposition, she gave to the little kiddies about her the warmth and help they never had gotten from others. Often she nursed them in their illness. One sick tot of three died in her arms and is carried away by the mother it• never had known on earth. Something of Judy's strength of character and her importance about the asylum is seen on a certain day when the trustees come, as they do every "Blue Wednesday." Judy, trying to aid the matron, Mrs. Lippett, deceitful woman, in having the orphans make a good showing, succeeded in making them appear very mischievous, and herself incurs the enmity of several of the sour trus tees. Angelica Wyckoff, a daughter of one of them, has brought along a doll, for which a sick baby cries. The selfish pampered child, who is clad in silks and satins, contrasting pitifully with the striped gingham in which the waifs are dressed, refuses to allow the child to have her doll. Thereupon Judy cleverly steals it and carries it up to the baby who gets to fondle it for a moment. For this fearful deed Judy is sentenced to have her fingers burned on a red hot stove by Mrs. Lippett, "as an example." Not long after, rebelling at the poor food which is served the orphans, Judy instigates a "prune strike." The only ones who "stick" are she and a funny freckle-faced little boy. They refuse prunes and are entenced into the yard without food by Mrs. Lippett. While they are there praying for Little Miss No Account 5? AND SA. BIS V Comedy SATURDAY.

In his mail that morning he finds a letter from her explaining that it was not because she is in love with another, but because she is ashamed of her past that she refused him. A moment later when she comes into his luxuriously fitted study he gives her the surprise of her life by revealing his identity. She is a little put out over his failure to tell her the secret before that' time, but a moment later is fast in the arms of Daddy Long Legs." Friend* of Irish Freedom Note* [From News Letter of the Irish National Bureau, Washington, D. C.] The amount of Ireland's own [money permitted by the English taxgatherers to be utilized for educational purposes annually is about $9,000,000, less than the amount spent something to eat, there is thrown.^ ^ coUntry> an amount over the fence by a thief a jug of I.. . . hard cider and some sandwiches. The famished children set upon these provisions with the result that both ac cumulate a mild "jag." While under its influence they do all sorts of funny things and in the end Judy comes in for more attention from Mrs. Lippett, the tyrant. In the long run Mrs. Pritchard, pne of the trustees, who is humane, begs a new trustee, a young man of wealth and position, to interest himself in the bright little Judy. The young man in question says he is not interested in girls, but that he will provide her with a college education. So, with no other knowledge of her benefactor save the sight of his tall shadow against a door, Judy goes to college. Being intelligent, pretty and accomplished she goes ahead wry rap idly both in her studies and socially. She often writes to her "Dear Daddy Long Legs," as she calls her benefactor, and draws him pictures of how she thinks he looks. These amuse Jarvis Pendleton, or "Daddy Long Legs," and he secretly decides that he will meet his ward land see what sort of a girl she is. As she never has known .Mm by any name he is easily able to do this at a social event. Her work in Romeo and Juliet," played on the college green, with herself las "Juliet," has won her another ardent suitor, Jimmy McBride^ a very young college man. But now, as she finds herself at the height of happiness, with two men of wealth and position interested in her, with her college education obtained, and with a new world opening before her, she suddenly looks into the sneering eyes of Angelica "Wyckoff, the girl who once saw her on "Trustee Day" back at the orphan asylum. Judy overhears Angelica speak of her past, linking Judy's name with that of Jarvis Pendleton. So, when the latter proposes, Judy sees her beautiful white frock turning back to the ugly stripes which once she wore as an orphan asylum child. Then she decides she cannot marry anyone. Pendleton, seeing a younger man in the field, thinks Judy does not want to marry him because he is older. But she refuses Jimmy on the same tvniunds when be appears. Both men leave in the midst of a .sevor? raio storm. Jarvis txKomes ill. As lie g«t» bettet? he sends *wrd v s .

The United States expends for Indian education approx imately $14 per capita of the Indian population. Is it any wonder that Lindsay Crawford, founder of the Independent Orangeman, declares that Irishmen in demanding the free dom of their own country include the urgent need to educate their own children without foreign interference? The oldest members of the U. S. senate, the veteran newspaper correspondents and a host of highly qualified critics unite in saying the hearing of Saturday, August SO, before the U. S. committee on foreign relations, conducted by the Friends of Irish Freedom, was the most ably conducted hearing the senate has witnessed in decades, -in point of able, forceful and helpful presentation of great subject. Judge Daniel F. Cohalan, Hon. Frank P. Walsh, Ex- Governor Edward F. Dunne of Illinois, Hon. Michael J. Ryan, Hon. W. Bourke Cockran, John Archdeacon Murphy, Lieut.-Governor McDowell of Montana and Daniel C. O'Flaherty of Richmond, Va., were the speakers. The senators who listened for a full five hours unite in saying the arguments, in point of facts, delivery and burning intensity of interest, were "simply wonderful." The advocates of the cause of Ireland, as an evidence of the respect won from the senators who listened, have been signally honored by having the entire record of the hearing proceedings published in the Congressional Record. > Winter Schedule We wish to announce to our patrons the inauguration of our winter milk delivery schedule on Oct. 15.
