Miss Tanguay, as cyclonic and as personable as of yore, has anew act, decidedly Tanguayesque in its conception, embracing new songs and affording the dynamic Eva an opportunity to parade costumes that are described as the last word in originality and gorgeousness. Long acknowledged to be the biggest box office card in vaudvelli.e Miss Tanguay continues on her merry way, the premier comedienne of the varieties, in quite the same debonair? fashion that characterized her’when she rose to worldwide fame as the “I Don’t Care” girl.

Signor Friscoe plays an instrument of his own designe, from which he is able to get four-part harmony by using four hammers at the same time. Bill includes: ERNEST HIATT propriately titled, “Nothing Serious," delivers a heterogeneous monologue that keeps his audience laughing both because of the humor of the dialogue and the rapidity with which it is delivered. One of the unusual stunts in his offering consists in naming, in proper order, all the streets of the town in which he is apnearing. WILL HIGGLE AND HIS BEAUTIES A dance act in which gle and six attractive girls offer a variety of new steps, including the new “Higjij Stamp,” one of Mr Higgie’s own creations.

Weekly Sunday School Lesson
The International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for Nov. 8. Amos Pleads for Justice. Amos 5:1-15 BY WM. E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of Th Congrogaiionalisl In the last lesson we considered Amos, the herdsman prophet, in his denunciation of sin. It is a satisfaction to go further in the consideration of Amos as a pleader for justice. The denunciation of sin is not always accompanied by the highest sense of justice. Men who have been great sinners themselves have not always been above denouncing the sins of others. Not only has there been repeatedly in life elemental hypocrisy in the way in which men, particularly in their public utterances, have condoned their own sins while they have denounced the sins of others—that is, sins of essentially the same sort—but there has also een a constant tendency on the part of men to condemn some sins in others, while they themselves have been deeply dyed in other sorts of Virginia Sully who spars with him for comedy and meets him on £qual ground in dances and songs. Mr. Berkes is ar. eccentric comedian with nimble feet and a pleasing voice. GEORGE WONG & CO.— S.x clever and versatile Chinese gymnasts who are balancers, equilibrists, jugglers and contortionists. “LES MISERABLES”—The feature photoplay is a foreign-made picturization of Victor Hugo's most famous novel, distributed by Universal. It is the story of Jean Valjean, an escaped convict, and his struggle to “come back.” The scenes are laid in France at the time of the revolution. Revolutionary mob scenes and the escape through the sewers of Paris are among the highlights of the picture.

sins. On recalls the reproach against the Puritan as: Compounding sins he was inclined to. By damning those he had no mind to. But Amos was not of that sort. He saw with a clear eye not only the sins and corruptions of his own day, but he perceived with equal clearness the foundations of righteousness and social welfare. He is essentially a constructive prophet. True life for society, as for the individual, is a quest. Life comes only through seeking the highest things. “Seek the Lord, and ye shall live.” Life, moreover, is established in righteous judgment. It is in following good and not evil that true national prosperity can be established. “Hate the evil and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate.” Can there be any improvement upon this for modern times? The mere show of prosperity has in it nothing of permanence. The Inner Beauty What are houses of hewn stone, suggests Amos, if the life within them be rotten? What are hewed cities with their grandeur of building. their great churches, their pretentious places of amusement, and their enormous palaces of commerce, if the life of the city be not true to the plumb-line of justice and righteousness? Hov long would the great buildings last if they had not been built upon secure foundations and with regard for the level and plumbline? How long, suggests Amos, can the structure of society itself last if there be not the same regard for uprightness? These things seem self-evident, and yet it is amazing how the world goes on, neglecting the deeper and truer foundations of life and disregarding the requirements for the highest welfare, appreciating truth in its material and scientific forms, but neglecting the rigid demand of true standards in the matter of
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
those relationships of man with man which determine the character of society both in the present and in the future. Every Age Needs Amos Every prosperous age needs Its men like Amos, exploring around the roots of things, and likewise bringing to men the sense of sky. Here was no mere muckraking, prophet, but a preacher of the highest way of true upbuilding and attainment. The golden text might well be carved in deep and splendid letters over every structure of our modern business and social life, both national and international. “Let judgment run down as waters and righteousness as a mighty stream.” "A mighty stream”—refreshing, life-giving, purging, cleansing—true wealth, health and welfare are ultimately, for individual and society, concerns of justice and righteousness.
