"The Quarterly Bulletin.*'
The first issue of "Ti'*e Quarterly
Bulletin" of the State board of charities
and corrections came from the
press today. The Bulletin contains a
concise statement of the functions and
relationships of the board and a reprint
of the act of the general assemI
hlxr nroaHnor flip hnflTf?
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."

J' MRS. 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

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.

j; With the exception of King, the circus
master, whose cupidity gets t'be better
I of him wi:en he sees a chance of trading
off a girl as an heiress, while that
role should be filled by Lovey Mary,
there is not much call for depicting
dorble dyed -villainy Even King is an
r amusing and certainly a resourceful
I ruffian, who "gets his" in due course.
Hiram W'iggs who deserts his homely
spouse, the Queen of the Cabbage
Patch, becomes a ring master and
1 j marries a shapely young equestrienne,
l | bigamously and deliberately, is not a
-1 dyed-in-t. e-wool villain, for when the
)! little circus girl dies, he keeps his
-' secret, sneaks home to his forgiving
, wife and renews a (presumably) iiiap5
py life with Mrs. Wiggs.
You rise from looking at this film
' j play with no metaphorically unpleasant
taste in the mouth.
