Msrest sna Estell Collette, the violinist
and 'oelllst, devote about half their allot

and Naomi Glass, one of the headline fea
tures, present a comedy skit called "1118

polate their mind reading1 rtunts with tun
maklns. Will M. Cressy and lllanche Dayne
offer "The Wyoming Whoop." To mention
me name or will Cressy la ta brlner forth
the thought of comedy and laughter. The
fifth and last of the facetious mood makers
is Al Shayn and his wod csrtner. Joa Sully.
who contribute a laughing punch to a bill
nearly entirely composed of comedy.
Oayetjr Today's two performancea will
bring to a termination the engagement of
Jack Singer's elegant Behman show at the
popular Gayety. No attraction to have
played that house this season haa been
given a greater welcome, and Lew "Prof.
Dope") Kelly can rest assured that when he
returns next season Omaha will gladly greet
mm. ine closing attraction of the season,
'Step Lively, Girls." opens its week's run to
morrow afternoon. Conspicuous In the cast
are Kicn. "Shorty" McAllister, Harry Shan
non and one Dotson, the mtdnlte stepper,
Ladles' matinee dally.
Empress If you want good, entertaining
musical comedy, don't fall to see "Circus
Days'' at the Empress theater, Menlo
Moore's latest girl act. Kimball and Ken
neth are expert banjolsts and produce the
tinkling of a mandolin, the soft strumming
or a guuar, tne melody of the ukelele and
the "blnky-bank" of the banjo.
Boyd Tf you are a bit squeamish on eer
taln subjects you will probably exclaim
"The Very Idea" at the play that Richard
Bennett Is bringing to the Boyd Sunday
evening for an engagement of four nights,
with a matinee Wednesday afternoon. If
you are fond of a good, clean laugh en
gendered by a perplexed company of whole
some people In a novel and ingenious com
edy, you will approve the verdict that New
Tork passed upon this one of the funniest
that has been produced In the metropolis
during the last decade.
In the Silent Drama. ,
Strand Comedy holds full sway In
"Amarilly of Clothes Line AlleV," which
stsrs Mary Plckford and will be exhibited at
this theater again today and Saturday.
There are many moments of genuine pathos
and any number of thrills in the course
of the picture, but laughter will hold sway,
overcoming momentary predisposition to
tears. Throughout the story "Our Mary,"
presents a convincing figure of the little
tenement girl straying far afield Into the
realms of the idle rich, lured by the blan
dishments of a scion of wealth, but re
turns at last to her natural environments,
where she finds happiness. A "smiling"
Bill Parsons comedy and the Strand-Pathe
News completes the bill.
Shn William Russell will hold, forth at
this theater today and Saturday In the first
production made with his own company,
"Hearts or Diamonds." It Is a mystery comedy-drama
and Is said by eastern critics,
to be far above the ordinary run of pic
tures. There Is of course a love story and
diamond thieves are very active In the story,
while the star does many athletic stunts
that are said to be clever. Other good
pictures will also be shown In connection,
and a splendid entertainment la promised.
Empress "The Claim," the Metro All-Star
8ries picture starring for the last three days
of this week, traces the development of
the heroine from a household drudge to a
cabaret singer who finally finds - a soul
through the softening touch of baby fingers.
Muse Today and Saturday the Fox Kid
dles will be seen at the Muse In "American
Buds." Men and women, old and young,
children and even grandparents will all be
interested In this play of humor. Also the
fifth episode of "The Eagle's Eye" will be
shown.
Hipp "Alimony" or "The Tie That
Burns," will continue to hold forth at this
theater today and Saturday. The picture
is entertaining and was well received by
those who attended the yesterday's show
ing. A splendid cast has been assembled,
each having been selected for their ability
to portray the various roles In the pro
duction. Other good pictures will also
be presented, Including a comedy.
' Hamilton Marguerite Clarke will he
shown at this theater today In her latest
Paramount picture, "Bab's Matinee Idol."
The story Is of a young society miss who
falls In love with a atage favorite, only
to find out on Investigation that the idol
of her dreams Is a married man and thus
she Is disillusioned. Saturday comes Con
stance Talmadge in "Honeymoon." j
Lothrop William S. Hart Is announced as
the featured player at this theater today
In his latest Paramount Artcraft play,
"Wolves of The Rail." He has a new
character in this picture, that of a rsll
road detective, and he cleans up a bandit
Infested district in short order and true
hero style. It also haa many scenic splen
dors that will be appreciated. Saturday
comes George Walsh In "Jack Spurlock
Prodigal." and a Sunshine comedy, "A Milk
Fed Vamp."
Suburban 'The Kaiser The Beast of
Berlin," will form the photoplay attrac
tion at this theater today and Saturday.
It Is one of the most sensational pictures
of the age. The Invasion of Belgium by
the German barbarians and the atrocities
Inflicted on these Innocent people la so told
that you will be held spellbound through
out. It Is based on fact and fancy, while
the Impersonation of the kaiser by Rupert
Julian, is one of the greatest characterisa
tions the screen has ever seen.
Boyd When William Farnura pulls off
his coat and rolls Up hN belligerent sleeves,
all 4he barometers in the neighborhood in

wrong. Big Bill Is just about the stormiest
person on the screen at present, - and his
spirited fisticuffs are always a delight to
see. That Is only one reason why "The
Heart of a Lion," Mr, Farnum's latest Fox
production, Is drawing capacity houses to
the Boyd theater, where it still has one more
day to play.

RIGID ECONOMY
NEEDEDON MEATS
Elimination of Waste During
Short Market Season Neces
sary to Prevent More
"Meatless" Days.
For the present no rigid meatless
day restrictions will be asked by the
food administration, according to a
telegram from Herbert Hoover to
Gurdon W. Wattles, federal food ad
ministrator for Nebraska. However,
in order to obviate the necessity of
more meatless days, Hoover asks
rigid economy in the use and con
sumption of meats. His telegram to
Wattles follows:
"The food administration is ex
tremely desirous of securing economy
in a consumption of all kinds of
meat without reinstallation of meat
less days for present Seasonable de
cinch in volume of animals coming to
market is now in progress and us
volume will undoubtedly further de
crease during the next few months
as is usual, but probable amount of
such decrease is yet obscure.
"The necessities for shipment
abroad to our army and allies are
large and amount roughly, to, 75,000,
000 pounds of meat and meat products
of all kinds ner week against ore
war normal of less than 15,000.000
pounds. Even with these large ship
ments the allies have found it neces
sary to reduce consumption of all
kinds.
Must Continue Economy.
"Our consumption of meats is about
three and one-quarter pounds per
week, and if we' are to make both
ends balance during short marketing
season, we must have further econ
omy. .
"If the public will continue in rig
orous elimination of waste and will
further economize by reducing quan
tities prepared for each meal of all
kinds of meat and poultry, more par
ticularly beef, and will restrict their
purchases accordingly, the food .' ad
ministration hopes that the necessary
balance will be maintained.
"There is now a seasonable abun
dance of milk products which can
well be substituted in various, forms.
Shortage of fish during past sev
eral months has been due to necessity
of naval requistioning of trawlers
and enlistment of fishermen for navy
and should be considerably relieved
by the expansion which has been ar
ranged in other forms of fishing."
