    “Yellow Lantern”
Scores Hit With’
Large Audience
Annual Musical Production of
University of Nebraska Kos
met Kldb Offers Clever
Songs and Acting.
The premier presentation In Omaha
of the Kosmet Kluh's annual musical
production was enjoyed by a large
audience in Rrandeis theater Monday
night. This club has gained an envi
able record for 12 years by the
dramatic and musical successes It has
produced through the co operations of
the students of the University of
* Nebraska. Now that the way has
bfen opened the club expects to ap
pear here every year. The club Is
composed of members of the uni
versity and It offers prizes for the
best musical compositions submitted
by the student body.
The 12th annual musical produc
tion offered here last night is en
titled, "The Yellow' Lantern." writ
ten and directed by Cyril L. Combs of
the college of lew at the university.
The settings for the first and third
acts and the special costumes were
designed by Irma Wolfe Coombs.
This production is^ a combination of
dramatic and musical elements, bring
ing out considerable talent, some of
■ which may be referred to as notably
clever. Considering that the per
formers are all amateurs, the per
formance was surprisingly smooth
am/ as an entertainment It was
worthy of the approval which was
bestowed.
Omahans in Cast.
Among the Omahans In tTie cast
’ were Hart .Tenks, Jr., who scored a
rial hit with his characterization of
ofriutn and his song, "The Maker of
Dreams,” which called for several
encores. The chorus accompaniment
also was appreciated. Other Omahans
were Sarah Smeaton, Eno Grenswalt,
Dorothy Payne and Oliver Maxwell.
Stephen King and Kay Stryker, also
of Omaha, are members of the
Kosmet Klub.
The solo dance of Donna Gustin,
who appeared as "Spirit of the Pop- j
piefc.” was, of the professional class.
Miss Gustin Is an accomplished to#
dAncer who probably has a future as
a danseuse. Orville Andrews, as
Jasper Calender Jones, a darkey sailor
stranded in China, was the comedy
hit. He sang "Missin’ MUsippi.” !
"Underneath the Chinese Moon,” by
the Passerby chorus, was another hit
in which Sarah Smeaton and Edna
Lemming were in particular evidence.
Musical Offerings.
L. G. Hawley, as Robert Kincaid,
and Dorothy 6prague. as Princess Su
San Yee, won a goodly ehare of tlie
applause, their “Garden of My
Dreams'* being one of the musical
hits. Mr. Hawley may Improve with
practice In the art of carrying a
princess whom he has Just awakened
with words of love, but this is only
a little detail that is in the day s
work. The Poppy Flowers and the
Sen Sen girls were animated features
enlivened with entrancing music.
Oliver Maxwell did well in his char
acter of Kin Do Chun and mention
also should be made of Edmund Nuss,
Dwight Merrtam. Welch Pogue. B.
Quigley and Messrs. Pizer, Kelly.
Benson. Felton. Porth. Stitsel, Sperry.
Bradly. Beardsley. Sutter. Irwin,
Adams. Marshall and Loder. William
Norton and Ralph Ireland appeared
* as Chin Chin and Chow Chow. Among
others in the’cast were Ward Wray,
Arthur Letts. Phyllis. Easierday.
Margaret Munger. Dietrich Dirks.
Kenneth Cozier, C. L. Coombs and
Dean Lowry.
The dramatic part of the pro
duction, tense at times, related to the
Chinese festival of lanterns, Inter
erbven with a llttfe story of a pending
treaty. This offered opportunities for
several melodramatic scenes, includ
ing a struggle and a tragedy.
The Kosmet Klub surely has no
tomplaint over the reception received
on Its first visit to Omaha. Those
who attended last night hope that
these state university productions will
be annual events in Omaha.

Jesus’ Doctrine,
Adam Bede Savs
•
Thought Must Be Nationalized
to Solve World Problems,
Journalist Declares in
Omaha Address.
"You can't play a tune on a crow
bar; you can't enjoy the luxuries ot|
life without hearing the burdens, and
you can't solve world problems by
lying awake nights hating your neigh
bor," was the underlying current of
the talk of J. Adam Bede, journalist
anJ former congressman from Minne
sota, who spoke on "The Pursuit of
Happiness" before 350 members of
the Art Sell league in Hotel Fontenelle
Monday night.
"Only exceptional men and women
can have money and be happy at the
same time,” he said. "The person
who can appreciate the beauties >f
sculpture, painting, poetry, music
more fully than another, is richer
than the latter. Wealth is not meas
ured by •money only; neither is hap
piness. He who can get the most
out of this world as he finds it is the
richest man.
"If you expect to solve world prob |
lerns you must nationalize your
thought,” he declared. "You will
never reach a decision with your
neighbor by hating him; you've got to
join hands and work to a common
end. What we need is a little more
practice of the preaching of Christ,
whose doctrine was one of coopera
tion.”
Mr. Bede believes that there should
be two parties in the United States;
one in power and the other almost in
power; one party ruling the country
and the other party watching the one
one in the chair. He said he has
voted the republican ticket because
he thought the democrats made the'
best watchers.
He said the United States Is sadly '
lacking in homes'. He declared that
this country is a nation of apartment
dwellers and that one of the best ways
to regain that condition lost during
the war, would be to have more fami
lies living under their own roofs.
