At The Theaters Double programs have grown to be usual entertainment at the Caro lina theatre for Friday and Satur day. Tills time “Dancers,” with Lois Moran in the feature, and “Riders of the North,” a Bob Custer apeclftl, are- top offerings, and there Is a Pathe comedy worthy of mention. Another production that carries one back to the days of boyhood with all its joys, experiences and tears, is "Skippy,” which wil be the Para mount offering for Monday and Tuesday of next week. Richard Dix has won a name for himself that will be remembered after all the other Dlx roles have been forgotten. His performance as Yancey Cravat, pioneer during the Oklahoma land rush, is a fcompli ment to the work of the talking screen. "Cimarron” is Richard’s greatest role. The picture opened a three-day engagement at the Webb theatre yesterday and has been warmly received by those who hare taken time to see a rtally great pic ture. The screen's version of “Ten Nights in a Bar-Room" Is a more vivid portrayal of the famous story than was the stage play. Photo graphy makes It possible to throw in detail shots that had to be omit ted from the stage play because of the time it would require to change scenes. This stirring drama of by gone days Is led by William Farnum.

Some 23 years ago the South Ah i ean polls* in a barren stretch of country, came across a pack of ba boons and fired upon them. As the men fired the beasts scattred; but one of them lagged behind and though he proved to be a slippery customer, was captured. He turned out to be a native boy that had been captured by the baboons while he was still a baby. After a year In a hospital he laaraed to speak a little English, and in time disclosed the habits of hU baboon friends. He had no idea of time, not even of the meaning of sunset or sunrise. He remembered how during cold nights one of the baboons had ben in the habit of holding him In his arms, to shield him from the cold, and how they appeased their constant hunger by eating crickets. When captured he was running about on all fours; but he learned to walk upright, and could run u ten-ratio errand without stopping tor breath. He could lift and cnrrj two 100-pound sacks ot grain. He j hud almost no memory, and was ea- j pable only of doing what he was; told at the moment the order was i given. In the province of Oudft, India in times past several native chtldien I have been adopted by wolves and been recovered to civilization. One such was found at Haiwana. 73 inilps from Allahabad, In 1927. The child was able to walk, but at times prefers to cruwl, sitting on his haunches with his legs curled under neath him, and propelling himself forw ard with the palms of Ills hands on the ground. Huving lived on roots and herbs for years, he even now eats grass when taken out In the evening. At Chupra, India, In 1843, a man and hls wife were out In (heir fields a c com tain led by their child, marked one one knee by a severe scald. The child was carried off by a wolf, and six years later was captured, after a fierce resistance, and plainly recog nised by the mother as her child Several "wolf boys” have been kept at. various times at the Scour dra orphanage at. Agra. One such was there in 1874. having Wien been there for nine years and supposed to be pbout IB years old. His arms were but 19 Inches long, due to ar rested growth, through hls going on all fours. It is supposed that these numer ous "wolf children” In India have come about through the fact that in times of famine the parents in this part used often to abandon their children In the forests, and the wolves some years ago were very plentiful. The fact that the wolves kept these human babies Instead of eating them show plainly the rev erence which wild animals natural ly have for humans, and the love of all mothers and fathers for child life in any form whatever.
