“YOUTHFUL FOLLIES”
Christmas Tree Is Overbur
dened With Clean Fun and
Holiday Merriment
There are said’ to be so many at
tractive features in ‘“Youthful Fol
lies” coming to the popular Gayety
theatre all week, starting Saturday
matinee, that space is not available
to describe them all. But one of the
big features that is always found at
this popular theatre is the daily mat
inees designed for the comfort and
convenience of its lady patrons. TUe;
complete performance is given then!
the same as in the evening.
But to revert to "Youthful Follies”.!
It is £ bit larger than the ordinary1
show, geing on the revue type. In ten
magnificent scenes, It offers rare nov-'
elty in its stage settings There are
also several seashore vistas that af- j
ford an opportunity for a varied and
pleasing display of the latest fashion
creations in both feminine bathing
suits and beach gowns.
A really splendid cast is promised'
It is headed by Eddie Cole, a comedian1
of unusual and amusing qualifica-1
tions. Dolly Davis, the soubrette, is |
said to be most pleasing both in looks
and personal attainments. She was
recently seen in Keith vaudeville at
the head of a “‘girl act” called the
‘‘Dollie Davis Revue.”
Harry Morris, a Hebrew comedian,
offers a brand new delineation of this
popular type of comic; Julia Gifford,
besides contributing artistically as
prima donna does a high class sing
ing specialty; Myrtle Andrews, a be
autiful Titian haired girl is a popular
favorite; Harold Kennedy and Harvey
Brooks present a very entertaining
skit called “Talking Back” and Shorty
De Witt and Mabel Gunther will offer
‘ A Pint and a Half of Fun.”
“Youthful Follies” boast3 of a chor
us that is second to none. It has
every attriute that goes toward mak
ir^ a pleasing ensemble—youth, beau
ty, ability and vivacity. And its mem
bers have been wonderfully costumed
in gowns that are exquisite and at
tractive to a degree.
Sunday’s matinee and the grand
holiday matinee Christmas Day will
start at 3:00.
FAIL TO RETURN SOUTH
AS CLAIMED BY EDITORS;
CANCEL SPECIAL TRAIN
Chicago, 111., Dec. 21.—Reports of
intimidation of 300 Negro families
claimed to be prepared to return south
on a special Illinois Cr/itral train
proved to be a flivver. It is said that
when train time arrived only a very
small number of Negroes appeared
at the station to return south.
Rumors of threats of violence said
to have been made by whites against
the Negroes were widely circulated a
few days ago. It is thought that rep
resentatives of Southern Cotton Grow
ers’ associations had started these ru
mors in an effort to get the Negroes
to return south. In fact a group of
Negroes are said to have threatened
thf southerner with violence if he did
not desist stirring up discontent
among Negroes in the community, j
He was told that his wild reports
about 500 Negro families going back
south with him on the special was all
bash.
According to officials of the Hlin-;
ois Central railroad only thirty col
ored families returned south. Reports
were circulated that northern whites
were going among the Negroes telling
them that as soon as they got on the
train the doors of the coaches would
be locked and not opened until the
train reached its destination and also
that there was a guard in each coach
armed with a gun and a black snake
whip.
It seemed that the southern and
the northern whites made a strong
play on the ignorance and fears of
many of the Negroes. One young
Negro said, “Them folks are simply
going down south for the winter, they
will be back next spring. That’s a
great stunt, acting like rich folks—
living where it is summer all the
time.”

j SHAKESPEARE SCRIPT !S OLD
| “Find” in British Museum Has Been
Known Since 1871. E. H.
Sothern Says.
Announcement of the discovery of a
manuscript in Shakespeare's handwrit
ing among some old papers in the Brit
ish museum comes about half a cen
tury late, according to K. H Soihern.
Mr. Sothern writes to the New York
World that an obscure student of
Shakespeare blundered upon the manu
script In 1871 and in a hook published
In 1916 Sir Edward Maunde Thompson
j established the chirography as that of
j Shakespeare.
But Mr. Sothern and Julia Marlowe,
browsing through the British museum
In 1921, unaware any such manuscript
; existed, came upon it. Mr Sothern said
I he brought back to America In August
[ of that year photographs of pages of
the manuscript and the whole story of
I its origin. But the public was little
Interested in the matter then
The manuscript in question is of 147
lines, constituting an interpolation in
s play by Anthony Mundv, an Eliza
beth ian, based on the life of Sir
Thomas Moore.
“Benjamin de Pnsseres published In
the Theater magazine of February,
1922. an interview with me dealing
with the discovery of Shakespeare's
handwriting,” writes Mr. Sothern.
"Sliss Marlowe and I unconsciously
were drawn toward these three sheets
At tlie bottom of the first, the most
legible of the three, tills card was at
tached :
“ ‘Note of the hook of
Sir Thomas Moore.
Supposed Shakespeare’s Hand
writing.’
“Toward the end of the Sixteenth
century ttie original manscrlpt was re
vised, after submission to the censor.
The name of one of the players sag
gests the company which proposed to
act It was known in 1592 as Lord
Strange's Men. for which Shakespeare
was writing.”
AMERICANS ARE NEW PEOPLE
Views of Psychologists Cited to Prove
That They Differ From the
Europeans.
Po we really dare to maintain that
this country isn't any different from
IJurope? asks James Oppenheim in
Uie New Republic. I don't mean het
ter. or even worse; I mean different, j
Why, even Germany is different from
France, and they hare the same boun
dary line. Russia anil England are
both a part of Europe, and they are
psychologically poles apart.
Will any one maintain that a hun
dred million people, severed from Eu
rope by an ocean, and built up out of
a pioneer environment, which fur
nistied a unique experience for white
men. is not even more different from
Europe than one European nation
from another? Rubbish ! We ure a
new people. . . .
I watched two Eurojieun psychol
ogists. one of them great, tiie other
excellent, react to America. They
knew Europeans. Tliey had psycho
analyzed many. They had traveled#
they were cultivated. The excellent
one said. "You have a young libido.
It Is the age of adolescence. Anything
Is possible. Greatness, destruction It
Intoxicates me. Such energy It Is
like Niagara pouring out!" The other
one felt himself renewed. He made
reservations. He said. "The mind of
Europe is deep; that of America, ex
pansive." Rut he thought of moving
over here, and beginning anew.
Damage Done by One Bush.
A special study to determine the ex
tent of infection and loss from a single
hush was made by one of the state
leaders of barberry eradication, says
the Scientific American. The outbreak
of stem rust which started from a bush
traveled in one direction, at least, fiW
about five miles. The total wheat area
affected on IK different farms was 363
acres. The average yield for that year
was only 37 per cent of what it would
have been without tiie black stem
rust, or a total loss In yield of 12.2.V)
bushels. At a dollar a bushel the com
bined money loss from this single hush
In this one direction was $12,230, of
an average loss to each farmer of
$000 wortli of wheat. A barberry bush
with a $10,000 potential damage possi
bility can lie destroyed with ten
pounds of salt or an hour’s work with
a grub hoe.
Worse Than Losing the Ring.
The bridegroom and the best man
were at the altar awaiting the bride.
The former became very white and
seemed about to faint.
“What's wrong wl’ ye, Jock?" asked
the best man. “Yer face is like chalk.
Ha’e ye lost onything? Ila'e ye lost
the ring?”
“No,” came the reply, "but I doot
I’ve tost ma enthusiasm.”
Professional Tendencies.
Mrs. Smilax—Henry, i really believe
Freddy is going to be u doctor when h«
grows up. I heard him tell Mary that
she must be careful of her health, and
that pie was considered hurtful.
Mr. Smilax—It looks to uie as though
he is more likely to become a lawyer.
I noticed that he had two pieces of pie
at supper last evening.—-Boston Tran
script.
Vanishing Hitching Post.
A man got out of a buggy In front of
a store in Wooster, O.. recently, and,
after looking in vain for a hitching
post, took a long rope out of the buggy,
tied one end of It to the horse’s bridle,
carried the other end with him into
the store, and transacted Ids business,
while the pedestrians on tiie ski -walk
lumped the rope.
Tima’s Chang##.
Th# hired man was tinkering a round
the farmyard. The patent churn man
gave him a cheap cigar and asked him
how things were coming along.
Different times,” growled the hired
man, “different times.”
“What’s the trouble?” asked the
churn agent.

Three New Glacier* Found.
Discovery of three new glaciers in
the Bitter Root range in Montana was
made recently by Theodore Shoemaker
and K. L>. Swan of the forest service.
All are located on a ridge between the
Big and Kootenai creeks. A climb of
4.000 feet was made by the explorers
Into a wild and little traveled section
' before the glacial formation* wen
sighted. One of the Ice musses was of
huge proportions, while the other two
were considerably smaller. Inspection
of the Hrea, including the study of r<*ck
deposits and other geological signs, in
dlcates that the glaciers are receding
rapidly, Mr. Shoemaker said.

Lifting Power of Air and Gases.
The lifting power of air is 0.1(W
pounds per 1,000 cubic feet of air for
i each degree Fahrenheit above the tem
perature of the surrounding air. This
weight is the total weight inclusive
of the dead weight of the balloon.
The lifting power of hydrogen is 75.1 j
' pounds per 1.000 cubic feet. The lift- |
lng power of helium is 69.7 pounds per
1.000 cubic feet, the temperature of
these last two being tile same as that
of tlie surrounding air.
