Remarkable Non-skid Tires 
We candidly believe that if every 
motorist in the city were to equip his 
car with either one of these famous 
United States Tires 
he would get more mileage for the 
money invested and better skidding 
protection than he possibly could 
get from any other tires—and we 
know them all.

Empire THEATRE, SALEM 
Charles Kenyon’s simple, forceful, 
deeply human drama, “Kindling,” 
in which Margaret Illington starred 
with great success, will be the inter- 
esting offering of the Empire Stock 
Company at the Empire Theatre, Sa- 
lem, next week. In this play Mr. 
Kenyon unquestionably has some- 
thing to say. His theme—a child’s 
right to a chance in life—is surely 
worth saving, for it is and deserves 
to be uppermost nowadays in the 
mind of the thinking people through- 
out this whole land. 
“Kindling” tells a 
story which 
strikes deep into the best emotion 
while carrying with it convincing 
reasonableness. Heinie Schultz, a 
stevedore, rude, but with the respon- 
sibility so common to , their class. 
Together they rehearse nursery 
rhymes in thoughts of the children 
they hope for. But there comes to 
Heinie an appreciation of what it 
would mean to a child to give it life 
in the tenement surroundings which 
are all he and Maggie can afford. He 
impresses Maggie with these new 
ideas, which the doctor and a_ rich 
young charity visitor confirm in 
words, while Maggie sees the deadly

confirming facts in the sickenng 
children around her. But this is just 
too late. Her own baby is coming, 
and she sees the terrible fate that 
seems to await it. In fear of morbid 
desperation she conspires with a 
scoundrel in the tenement, who plans 
to rob the house of the rich woman 
for whom Maggie is sewing, and thus 
secures the money needed to take 
her and Heinie to Wyoming, where 
their child can have a chance of 
health and decent life. 
Boston OpERA HOUSE 
Some show is promised when Anna 
Pavlowa and her imposing troupe of 
Imperial dancers, assisted by a full 
symphony orchestra, come to the 
Boston Opera House on Saturday, 
Oct. 25, for three performances only. 
All told the company numbers an ap- 
proximate century, which sets a new 
mark for an organization of this kind, 
if only from the standpoint of num- 
bers. 
Of the company’s personnel, first 
and foremost, of course, comes Pav- 
lowa, without a doubt the greatest 
dancer extant. Pavlowa has done 
more to rehabilitate the dance and 
make it the vital art it is today than 
any other executant, past or present. 
Throughout England and the conti- 
nent her success has been unprece- 
dented. 
Next in importance to the domi- 
nating figure of the famous Russian 
are three men dancers, Novikoff, Coc- 
chetti and Zailich, each an artist of 
rare attainments and established rep- 
utation. Novikoff has been Pavlowa’s 
leading associate for two years and 
critics call him the greatest danseur 
of the day. 
Pavlowa’s repertoire is almost en- 
tirely new and in keeping with the 
pretentiousness of her company. A 
special feature will be the futuristic 
ballets, ‘‘Ia Orientale,” “The Seven 
Daughters of the Ghost King’ and 
‘The Preludes.” The last named is 
a dance poem suggested to Franz 
Liszt by Lamartine’s ‘‘Dedication” 
and in it the incomparable Russian is 
given full scope for displaying her 
wonderful mimetic powers. 
The orchestra, a complete sym- 
phony organization under the leader- 
ship of Theodore Stier, will be an 
important adjunct. Works of the 
most famous composers are interpret- 
ed in the dances of Pavlowa and her 
associates. ‘These range from the 
florid qualities of Gluck, Mozart and 
Weber to the music of the most mod- 
ern exponents of the realistic Rus- 
sian school, 
Everybody reads the Breeze.
