GR.IFFITH ■ It was particularly appropriate that Albert E. Smith, president of Vita graph, should have. selected Ooriniif CSriffith for tlu* leading rede of Clyde Fitch's ‘‘The Cliinhers,” for she has been steadily climbing ever since she left her home in the south to become n Him player. Now she has reached the top rung of Him success. In addi tion to her imposing personal appear ance and histrionic talent, Miss Crifiilh has the happy faculty of wearing beau tiful and unusual gowns with grace and has had a splendid alldetie train ing. Some of her most recent fea tures have been “A Girl at Hay,” “The Tower of Jewels,” “Human Collateral" ami “Deadline at Kh*ven.” Changed Conditions. -"What are you doing for your poor relations?” “Poor relations," replied the cap italist. “My dear sir, nowadays my poor relations have more spending money than I have."

On these winter excursions the boys are instructed bow to make their out ings a novelty in spite of the adverse conditions that prevail. The scouts carry their own food and at night live in tents. It has been pointed out by the de partment. of camping that Jlie winter camp offers many Interesting feature: that cannot be enjoyed in any other season of the year for recreation and education for the boys. The necessity of teaching Hie scouts woodcraft in the winter is essential in the studies of seoutdom, and during these excursions the scouts receive in struction in the art of building camp fires, the preparing of shelters and comfortable bunks to house them in had weather, and other outdoor stud ies. One of the main features suggested for Hie camp Is the transplanting of trees. During the winter, which is more favorable for transportation, this craft can he carried out on a more ex tensive scale. The tracking and trailing of fur bearing animals in the snow, and all kinds of winter sports, such as ice skating, ice boating and skiing can usually he indulged in. NOTICE TAX SALES. SCOUTS ON K. P.
