WHAT'S IN A NAME?
A young lieutenant at Des Moines
has written a co-ed friend a long let
ter, all about a very - unimportant
thing, his address. It seems that she
mis-directed a missive to him. In
stead of addressing it to Lieutenant
So-and-So. Camp Dodge, Des Moines,
la., she sent it to Fort Dodge. He has
asked her to warn all her friends
about getting the two mixed up, for,
he says, Fort Dodge is a training camp
for negro troops, not a cantonment
camp where there are lieutenants and
such things.
ORPHEUM "LAST HALF"
"The Wall of an Eskimo," a thumb
nail musical comedy in which Harry
Girard and Company are appearing,
is as picturesque as it is novel. It
is described as an Alaskan incident,
and the scene therefore is of course
in the frozen north.
. Recently Girard has been identified
with musical comedy. He was lead
ing man with Lulu Glaser, in the run
of her most notable success "DoUy
Varden," and was starred in "The
Alaskan," of which he was co-author.
"The Wail of an Eskimo" was writ
ten by Mr. Girard from actual experi
ences. For three years Mr. Girard
was a gold seeker undergoing all of
the hardships, thrills and deprivations
of a prospector in that wild and un-

"The Kuppenheimer House in Lincoln"
known land. He made the trip from
Dawson to Nome, a distance of 1,670
miles with a dog team and was thirty
days on the journey. This was in
1900.
In Mr. Girard's support is the de
lightful young actress, Agnes Cain
Brown. Miss Brown at the age of six
teen was taken from a church choir
at Cincinnati and made prima donna
with the Boston Opera Company, and
since then has been prima donna with
Henry W. Savage's "Sho Gun," and
English Grand Opera Company. Miss
Brown was also starred ih "The Rose
of the Alhambra," a musical comedy
that is remembered with considerable
delight.
Rita Roland despite her youth is a
seasoned veteran ' of the two-a-day.
Elsie Janis laid the foundation for
Miss Roland's career, and upon that
foundation lias been erected the very
enviable. vaudeville reputation. She
quickly justified her sponsor's confi
dence, and just as quickly reached her
professional maturity and learned t
walk without a guiding hand. In
vaudeville Miss Boland has been a
member of several partnerships. In
musical comedy she has done well
As a single she has establihsed he
self firmly, and it is probable that
from now on it will be Rita Boland
without any "ands" "withs' 'or "as
sisted by's."
Miss Boland is appearing in a series
of song sketches, the words and music
of which were especially written by
Evelyn Blanchard. I
Lew Brice believes variety to be
the spice of vaudeville, and having
the courage of his convictions not only
changes his act every season, but
changes his partner as well.
He has played as a single, and in
association with Lillian Gonne, Muriel
Worth and Helen Coyne. Now, he
has two partners, the Barr Twins.
The two girls are most frequently
compared to the Dolly twins. In fact
they were selected to succeed the
Dollys as stars of the farce comedy
"His Bridal Night," but the manage
ment reckoned a little soon, because
when it came down to signing the
papers it was found that Mr. Brice
already had them under contract.
The girls are striking in appearance,
exceedingly smart in their attire and
dance like fury. When it conies to
dancing Mr. Brice is 22 karat, but
he has been seen in vaudeville so
often that every vaudeville fan knows
him. He has also done creditable
work- with one of the winter garden
shows, and one of the series of Zieg
feld's follies.
The new combination is a fine one,
and is a decided asset to major vaudeville.
June and Irene Melva. hardly out
their teens, but thorough musiciai.s
nevertheless, present an offering
which they bill "In a Musical Oddity,"
embracing selections on the xylo
phone and the "bar bottlephone" a
new invention and used only by this
duo of remarkable young ladies. They
are wonderful artists on the xylo
phone and their new bar bottlephone
will unquestionably be a surprise as
to quality of tone and sweetness. The

their costumes showing class and dis
tinction. The number, rrom a musi
cal standpoint, !s perfect. As an en
tertaining feature it is bound to be
received with enthusiasm. Everything
pertaining to the act is class personified.
The jugglers or the acrobat or any
of that ilk who does that which he is
to do without talking is a rarity these
days. Darto & Rialto do this, and
therefore call themselves "The Talk
less Boys."
These chaps, in addition to be!
balancers and jugglers, are exceeding
ly good comedians and their comedy
is entirely pantomimic. While bal
ancing themsplves upon a bicycle i.-i
difficult enough, they perform various
fppts with balls, clubs and other an.
cles of manipulation.

That Magnificient Motion Picture Panorama of War
THE RETREAT of tho GERMANS
AT THE BATTLE OF ARRAS
First episode shows the British landing from their transports. In
camp and preparing for the dreadful duel of armies. You see them
oo over the top, with bayonets and grenades, and you see the Hun beaten
back, sullen and wicked, his cruel courage dominated by English pluck.
No increase in prices. All this in addition to the usual bill of sui
preme vaudeville. Official government pictures for which Messers. Keith
and Albee are paying $300,000, and the proceeds go to war relief. Films
made on the firing line and tell you just what our boys must experience.
Remember the date: Commencing Thursday, October 18, 1917, at the
Orpheum "Last Half."
