The Bulletin says that the State board of charities and corrections is "tfce agency through which South Carolina seeks to inform itself accurately as to what charitable, penal and correctional work is going on within its borders; what the actual conditions are; what remedies are needed, and how they should be applied." "The law defines the duties of the State board of charities and corrections as 'strictly visitorial and advisory without administrative or executive powers,' the Bulletin continues, "T-is phrase states the spirit and attitude of the board in its relations to the many institutions and societies with which it will have to do. The South Carolina board, as distinguished from similar boards in several oi the other States, is not a board ol control. It has very little authority beyond that necessary to ascertain facts. To cooperate heartily in beiiall of constructive work is its constant ' aim. While recognizing that there are vast needs to be met, it sees just as clearly that progress, to be sane and reasonable, must be gradual and that the causes for which it and the institutions concerned are all working can best be furthered by bringing tc bear the mature experience of the i hp<?t insstitutions and workers the ! country affords." i A copy of the first quarterly bulletin will be sent free 1 > any address Requests for t?: e bulletin should b* addressed to the State board of charities and corrections at its office, 100i Palmetto building.

WIGGS OF THE CABBAGE PATCH! Pungent Humor and Heart-Moving Pathos at tlie Opera House. I Produced by the California Motion Picture Corporation and presented on ; ,'.January 4th, 1915, by the World Film: 'Corporation, the photoplay "Mrs.; AYFxggs of the Cabbage Patch" is as- i \ sured of a hearty reception by motion i picture theatregoers, if only on ac-: ! count of t-'.e popularity of its name.! |":\3rs. Wiggs" was very successful in j ' book and stage play form and thus i | brings a ready-made reputation to the j screen And the film will sustain that j reputation, for its producers 'havej 1 3 i \\ uuveu ?uu uuuiuicuuauie uiuiuu^n-i i ness in translating the incidents, the j atmosphere, the action. i The silent drama is capable of registering all human emotions; years of: | experience have tested this out, and| in "Mrs. Wiggs of t>':e Cabbage Patch" j the film play comprehends the gaunt j between laughter and tears. It is hard j to say where the pathos or the humor1 predominates, or whether the one or the other will be more pleasing to the L | audience. You ta?ve two exceptionally i sympathetic female characters on ! sight, "Mrs. Wiggs," played by Blanche: Chapman, and "Lovey Mary" which! I . gives the beautiful Beatriz Michelena | the chance of presenting herself in a | singularly pleasing part, that of a! 1 staunch though suffering girl. If Mrs. jWiggs is t?" e good angel of the drama j then Lovely Mary is its good fairy, \ I and a very winsome fairy she appears , j in the picture. I Mrs. Wiggs is really two books rolli ed into one: "Mrs. Wiggs of theCab(1 bage Patch" and "Lovey Mary." Mrs. , i Alice Hegan Rice wrote the books and . Mrs. Anne Crawford Flexner took tiiese books, which were enjoying j world wide popularity, and dramatized ri them under the farmer title. And L j when the play was produced in 1903, it achieved instant success and literal| Ly ran round the world. While it would be absurd to claim for "Mrs. Wiggs" i ! record popularity, ti':e fact remains' > that as a book and play it has surl' vived its renown for 12 years and ;; as a film play seems destined to have r' a proportionately prosperous career. ?| Sentiment counts for much in mo11 tion pictures and there is sentiment J | a plenty in "Mrs. Wiggs."
