and looked dramatically 'at former
Secretary of State Bryan, who was
sitting there. Mr. Bryan smiled.
"Mr. Bryan is a straight-forward
pacifist," said Mr. Murdock. "He is
going, to have a militarist plank
rammed down his throat at St. Louis
and he won t stand it. 1
Bryan Smiles.
Mr. Bryarl smiled again, and when
Mr". Murdock said he expected a new
peace and prohibition party headed
by Bryan and Henry Ford, the former
secretary threw back his head and
laughed heartily.
"Bryan has stood by his convic
tions, continued Mr. Murdock, and
the convention yelled approval.
Mr. Murdock said that with a four
cornered fight, Wilson and Marshall,
and "that tribute to the Arctic circle,
Hughes and Fairbanks" here the
crowd interrupted in a roar of laugh
ter. Mr. Murdock went on to say, with
Bryan and Ford behind "peace and
prohibition" and the progressives with
Roosevelt and Parker for American
ism and peace and preparedness," the
country would see a most remarkable
campaign.
The crowd yelled for a speech from
Mr, Bryan, but he shook his head with
a smile. ' ,

AUDUBON SOCIETY
IN BIRD MASQUE
Men and Women of Omaha, Next
Saturday, to Dedicate the Fonte
nelle Forest Reserve.
SAFE HOME FOR NEBRASKA BIRD
"Sanctuary" will be presented next
Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock out of
doors in the natural amphitheater at
Child's Point. This bird masque or
play will be given by prominent
Omaha men and women, members of
the Nebraska Audubon society. The
reason for giving it is to dedicate at
Child's Point a large tract there pur
chased by Dr. Harold Giflocd for the
Fontenelle Forest Reserve association
as a sanctuary or place of safety for
wild bird's, animals and plants. Pro
ceeds from the masque will be de
voted to helping repay Dr. Gifford for
the money expended.
Child's Point is a beautiful spot on
the Missouri river south of Omaha
Cars will run from Twenty-fourth
and N streets, South Side, every
twenty minutes next Saturday after
nodn to near Child's Point. A great
number will go in automobiles.
Passengers via street cars can get
off at either the old South Omaha
Country club or at Child's Point
crossing. Those who want to enjoy
the short country walk should get off
at the former place. There they will
be met by guides in woodland cos
tume who will guide them to the scene
of the masque. Jitneys will meet pas
sengers who get off at Child's Point
crossing and carry them direct to the
amphitheater. ' '
Tickets are selling like the tradi
tional hot cakes. The price is 25 and
50 cents. About sixty people are en
gaged in selling. Tickets may be pur
chased also at the Thomas Kilpatrick
& Co. store and the Matthews' book
store.
At Wilson! Summer Home.
"Sanctuary" is by Percy Mackaye
and was presented first three years'
ago at Concord, N. If., the slimmer
home of President Wilson. At that
time Miss Eleanor Wilson, now Mrs.
McAdoo, took the part of Ornis, the
bird spirit.
In the- present presentation the
seven principal characters will be tak
en as follows:
Ornis, the bird spirit, Miss Joy Hig
gins. Quercus, a faun, Hugh E. Wallace.
Alwyn, a poet, Harry O. Palmer.
Shy, a naturalist. Hart Jenks.
Tacita, a dryad, Miss Pleasant Hol
yoke. Stark, a plume hunter, Jay Burns, jr.
The Cardinal Bird, A. W. Jefferis.
The birds will be represented by
about seventy girls and boys in cos
tume. Scarlet tangiers, yellow war
blers, blue birds, red-headed wood
peckers, all the feathered folk of the
forest will be seen in appropriate cos
tume. Finally comes the call:
Bird and man and faun and fairy.
Gather now to Sanctuary.
And from all directions come the
birds and the animals and men and
mingle in peace and friendliness. Then
comes the dance of the yellow war
blers. '
The object of "sanctuary" of course,
is to promote more friendly feelings
among men for the birds, to cement
the entente cordialc, as they say in
diplomatic Circles.
Birds are not only beautiful, cheer
ful, tuneful, but they are useful. Robin
redbreast is not only an ornament to
the lawn and a joy to your eyes, but
he is a protection to the trees and
garden. He eats about three times
his own weight of bugs and worms'
every day. So, what if he does take a
berry or two for dessert!
Without the birds in this or any
other country man would starve to
death because the bugs and worms
would destroy all the growing crops.
So, you see, bird-protection should
appeal to hard-headed business per
sons as well as to the kind of heart
and the lovers of the beautiful.
The musical part of the pageant
promises to be ' as charming as the
spectacular. Four lyrics have been
composed especially for it and the
bird calls of the choruses are said to
be particularly delightful.
There will be incidental music all
through the performance and the pre
lude, "The Song of the Hermit
Thrush" will be sung by Mrs. Beulah
Dale Turner.'
Patrons will have "the privilege of
buying ice cream and lemonade from
such classic, mythological creatures
as nymphs and dryads. These nymphs
and dryads will be society girls of
Omaha. The ice cream and lemonade
won't be mythological, but real.
Rehearsals will be held every day
from now on.
Get your tickets early and avoid the
rush.
