TnOTO PIAY. OFFERINGS ' FOR.' TODAY
SHIRLEY MASON'S smiling face
will be welcomed again by
Omahans in her latest feature
comedy, "The Winning Girl" at the
Strand today and tomorrow. The
play, which is an interesting love
story, stars Miss Mason in a new
rofc and is one in which she makes
an especially strong heart appeal.
She is at the head of the company
which contains a group of younger
stars.
Priscilla Dean's current photoplay
"Raggedy Ann," is rapidly Hearing
completion under Tod Browning's
direction. Charles W. Tyler is the
author of the" story. Thurston Hall
has the leading masculine role.
White Edward Jose was making
the new Paramount picture, "The
Two Krides" at Gloucester, Mass.,
he needed extra people to take the
part of fisherman in the scene. At
that moment the coast was black
with real fishermen and Mr. Jose
approached a group of them who
were watching Lina Cavalieri work
before the camera. "How would you
boys like to get into the movies?"
he asked. Immediately they all
crowded around and declared them
selves in. For three days they posed
before the camera, sometimes knee
deep in ire cold water and other
times hauling in fish, rowing boats
out from the shore and combing the
beach. They received $5.00 a day
for their labor and seemed well
satisfied. Director Jose learned af
terwards that they usually make
$200 a week at this season of the
year, but they had sacrificed their
earnings for the sake of becoming
"movie" actors. No fishing was
done for three davs along the Glou
cester shore! "Ihe Two Brides
will soon be shown here.
Harriet Hammond of theSennett
studios denies her engagement to
Rudolph Eggs. So it looks as though
there won't be any Hammond-Eggs
wedding breakfast.
Rupert Julian's production. "The
Fire Flingers," in which he plays

AT THE
THEATERS
fTTNCLE SAMMY'S MIN
II STRELS," a company of
soldier boys, gave a pleas
ing entertainment at the Brandeis
theater last night." While they do
not claim to be professionals, yet
some of them have talent and their
united efforts please. A fair open-
mg-mght audience greeted the boys
with considerable enthusiasm.
The show is under the direction
of Musician Harry C. Baisden of
Missouri Vallev, la., who played a
piano in one of the Omaha theaters
before he went into military ser
vice. Among his compositions sung
ast night are 111 Steal lou, and
"If Y'ou've Got to Go to War,
Bring Back the Kaiser." ,
A jazz band is composed of Mr.
Baisden-W. Kendall Ross. J. C.
Warnock, Clarence Jordan. James

field's engagement at the Brandeis
theater next Tuesday and Wednes
dav in his revival of "The Auc
tioneer" is now progressing at the
box office. Even though it is seven
teen years since his Simon Levi
was first revealed to the public, its
appeal has in no way suffered by the
lapse ot time.
"Maytimc," the musical play by
Rita Johnson Youiift, which opens a
week's engagement at the Boyd on
Sunday evening, tells a love story
in four chapters, each a generation.
It is one of the. really quaint con
ceits of modern play making, and
with charming music, a competent
cast and a perfect stage setting it
will be one of the treats of the sea
son. "The Birth of a Race" still is be
ing shown at the Boyd, its stay
there , terminating, however, oil
Saturday night. This film has
proved a strong attraction, and one
that many persons are going back
to see for a second time.
It is a treat to listen to Corp.
Joe Nathan, who is appearing at
the Empress theater, a real humor
ist, besides being a cartoonist of
some ability. He has a way of
telling stories about army life that
create no end of merriment, and
as a cartoonist, he is a wonder.
Lithe and dainty, in the manner
of the Dolly Sisters, the Barr Twins
are charming Orpheum audiences
this week, presenting what is termed
a refreshing interlude of foi:g and

Gaston Glass has been engaged
by the Famous Players-Lasky cor
poration to play a juvenile part in
the Paramount production. "A Hon
eymoon for Three," with Marguerite
Clark. Mr. Glass is 23 years old and
was born in France. He came to
America with Sarah Bernhardt in
1916 and played in her repertoire.
Then he served in the French army,
and since then has come back to
motion picture acting. He had done
some screen work for Pathe, Gau
mont and Eclair previously.
Douglas Fairbanks has already
started work on his new picture for
the fifth Liberty loan. Get your
dollars ready, folks.
Monte Blue, leading man for
Ethel Clayton in her new picture,
"Pettigrew's Girl," which will soon
be shown here, is one of the best
Indian character interpreters in the
profession. He can not only make
up so as to appear as a perfect
specimen of the redskin, but can do
war dances and whoop with all the
vociferous vehemence of the real ar
ticle. Mr. Blue is a skilled actor
who gives value to any picture cast.
Joe Martin, that eminent jungle
histrion, is having a hard time of it.
Joseph, be it known, is LTniversal's
$10,000 orang-outang, the only one
living in captivity. Besides, he's a
noted screen performer. Well, Mr.
Martin is making double salary
these days, for he is. cast in two
current photoplay productions at
Universal City in Marie Wal
camp's new serial, "The Red Glove,"
in which, under Director J. P. Mc
Gowan's instructions, he portrays a
fierce jungle creature, the tool of a
predatory criminal, and in William
S. Campbell's animal comedy, in
which he is a good-natured crook',
While his friend Caesar, the lion
holds fast to Harry Burns, the com
edian, Mr. Martin thoroughly ran
sack's Burns' pockets and makes
away with stickpin, watch and wal
let. And be assured the comic Mr.
Burns had a bad few minutes re
covering his money. Joe Martin is
a wise bird even if he is a tnonkl
dance. Maud Earl is appearing in
the most elaborately staged vocal
act which the Orpheum has pre
sented. One of the featured acts of
the show is Bessie Remple in the
mystery farce, "A Child of Childs."
For next week the stellar attrac
tion will be Gus Edwards' big an
nual song revue for 1919.
The spectacle of a bunch, of cow
boys trying to take care of a
bouncing baby is one of the humor
bus feaures of "Roped," the ; Uni
versal special attraction in which
Harry Carey will appear , at the
Brandeis theater, next Sunday af
ternoon and evening, March 9. Mr.
Carey himself will appear at all
four performances. ,
This is the last day of the en
gagement of the Great Star and
Garter show at the Gayety, where
there is much activity in prepara
tion for the reception of "The

Federal Employment
Service Places Many
Ex-Soldiers in Omaha
'
The LTnifed States employment
service at the court house makes a
double plea for registration.
It not only asks all unemployed
men and women with special refer
ence to discharged soldiers to reg
ister with them for employment,
but it asks that the men and wom
en in Omaha register with them, all
openings for business and tempo
rary jobs of every kind.
This bureau is one of the govern
ments agencies and its work during
the war authorized its continuance.
"In Nebraska alone," said Mr. C.
C. Davis, superintendent of the serv
ice, "53,000 soldiers and sailors en
listed and the government employ
ment service took care of 33,000 rier
sons in this state beside send'ng
2,700 Nebraska men and women to
work in other states. In Omaha
alone 7,777 women also replaced
men."
Opportunities include etery type
of work, such as railroads, domestic
work, office work, and even applica
tions for matrimonial opportunities
are found. There is no charge of
any kind, although the government
cost for each placing amounts to 68
cents.
Omaha service has placed several
hundred soldiers, both from this city
and other states, in awork entirely
new and adapted to what their ex
perience has fitted them for.
A soldier was given a place with
a newly released picture film to act
as minute speaker for 10 weeks
throughout the country lecturing on
the pictures, while he was recupcat
ing. Another soldier, wounded in the
Argonne forest, was given work
with an advertising company.

FIFTH of the series of concerts
by local artists which is spon
sored by the Music department of
the Omaha Woman's club took place
Thursday evening at the Y. W. C.
A. auditorium. Cecil Berrymau,
pianist, James ffdward Carnal, basso
and Airs. Mabel Woodworth Jen
sen, violinist, were presented.
The auditorium was well filled in
spite of inclement weather, and
these attested their pleasure and
enthusiasm by encoring every num
ber of the program, and refusing to
be content with mere bows of ac
knowledgement. Mr. Berryman has made so many
public appearances that the charac
teristics of his playing are well
known.. He has never been heard
to better advantage than in his
numbers last evening. He seems to
have grown in breadth s;nce his last
appearance, and his numbers were
presented with an authority and
spirit which made them especially
attractive. .-
j Mr. Berryman appeared last even
ing not only as a pianist but also as
a composer. He has turned his at
tention to composition for some
time, and his two compositions of
last evening contained much of in
terest. ''Staccato Caprice" is well
defined by its name, and the "Fan
tastic Nocturne" proved especially
charming with its unusual harmon
ies, and rhythmic effects. A- stir
ring "Bourree" by Bach and a bril
liant presentation of Liszt's "Hun
garian Rhapsody No. 10" are also
among the numbers remembered.
Mr. Carnal also contributed two
groups to the program. Mr. Carnal
is distinctly a bass, and the low
tones of his voice have a richness
which frequently remind one of the
deep strings of a cello or double
bass. Mr. Carnal covered a wide
field in his choice of songs. "Ring
Out Wild Bells" by Gounod open
ed the first group, which contained
among otner numDers lnou Art
Like Unto a Lovely Flower" by
Smith, which Mr. Carnal sang with
excellent effect, and a charming
new Cadman song, "God Smiled
on the Desert," a California poppy
song. Mr. Carnal did some of his
best work in his second group, in
which "Ivictus" by Huhn was an
important number sung with splen
did dramatic feeling.
A great deal of interest was cen
tered in the appearance of Mrs.
Jensen on this program, for since
her marriage to Peter Jensen of
Council Bluffs, she has only appear
once publicly in Omaha. Mrs. Jen
sen before her marriage was a well
known musician of Chicago, where
she was frequently heard in recital
work. Her Omaha appearances are
all too rare, for Mrs. Jensen is an
unusually talented artist. She draws
a sure and skillful bow, and has a
finger technic which makes one mar
vel. Her tone, when she wills is
broad and luscious, and t other
times it is of the lightest. She

Very Effective Method
1 for Banishing Hairs
(Modes of Today)
At very little cost any woman can
rid her face of hairy growths if she
will use the delatone treatment. This
is made by mixing some water with
a little powdered delatone. This
naste is spread upon tHe hairy sur
face for 2 or 3 minutes, then rubbed
off and the skin washed, when every
trace of hair will have vanished. No
harm results from this treatment,
but care should be used to buy real

Sure Way To Get
Rid Of Dandruff
There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
pet about four ounces of plain, or
dinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night wh"?n retiring; use enough to
moisten the sealp and rub it in gen
tly with the finger tips.
By morninu-. most if not all of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely de
stroy every single sign and trace of
ft, no matter how much dandruff
you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be
fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and
soft, and look and feel a hundred
times better.
You can gt liquid arvon at an"
drug store. It is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you wilneed. This
?imple remdy has never been
known to fail. Adv.
plays with a positiveness and de
cision which is delightful, and at
times with an abandon and speed
which at times electrifies her audi
ence. In both her brilliant and her
peaceful work she is highly artistic,
and her interpretations are vivid and
colorful.
An exquisite "Romance" by Beet
hoven and a quaint "Minuet" by
Mozart preceded the brilliant "Cap
rice Tarantellc" by Wieniawski in
the firsht group. The Caprice Tar
antelle was given at a presto tempo
but with a broad rhythmic swing
and with variety of dynamics
"Berceuse" by Paul Juon in the sec
ond group was a gem of almost
ethereal beauty and it was repeated
In direct contrast was "Tambourin
Chinois" by Kreisler, barbaric in its
color and rhythm.
Mrs. Alice Davis Berryman added
pleasure to" the program by her ac
companiments for Mr. Carnal.
Miss Marguerite Morehouse of

"You can tell them that Tanlac
has helped my wife, too, and of all
the people who have made state

lieve we have the most cause to, be
thankful," said, J. P. McCord, a re

Mr. McCord recently moved to Pe

several years, he operated the hotel,
and is well known there.
'Beginning 13 years ago With
sfomach trouble," continued Mr.
McCord, "my wife went down in
health until she was almost a con
firmed invalid. She first lost her ap
petite, and then her stomach got so
out of order that everything disa

where she never dared eat anything
except a little toast and milk and
even then she suffered. She lost
weight and got so weak she would
give out before) getting through
with her morning's work. She could
hardly sleep at all and got so weak
that she was right on the verge of
nervous prostration and was unable
to get about the house for a week at
a time. She was so nervous at times
that she would tremble like a leaf
and the least unusual occurrence
or excitement would throw her into
a nervous chill.. During those nerv

enough of her food to give her
strength and, as she tried so many
things without results, I had about
come to the conclusion that there
was no help for her. One day I hap
pened to read a Tanlac testimonial
that seemed so reasonable that I
went right down town and bought
a bottle of the medicine for my wife,
and before she had taken more than
half a dozen doses she was sleeping ,
better and could get up in the
mornings and eat a little breakfast.
Well, to make a long story short, she
has taken seven bottles of Tanlac
and is strong and well as when she
was a girl. I have been completely
surprised and so has she by the won
derful results she has gotten from
Tanlac. She can eat meats, pota
toes, pickle, or anything else she
wants and it all agrees with her per
fectly. Her nervousness has all dis
appeared and she sleeps like a child
every night. She never thinks of
having anyone help her work now,
for she says she feels fine all the
time and that it's a pleasure to work,
since she is feeling so well. We both
feel mighty thankful for what Tan
lac has done for her." 1

Howell Is Strangling the
Growth of Omaha
With Omaha's steady growth there is a correspond
ing decrease in vacant houses, so that at the present time
it is nearly impossible to find a decent house for rent. This
condition demands more building. The Government, in
order to obtain employment for demobilized soldiers,
asks the people in general to build homes. The laboring
man, in order that labor may not become a drug on the
market, demands more building, but not so with R. B.
Howell and his Water Boards In my advertisement a few
days ago I called attention to the fact that building was
held up on account of lack of water mains. I hardly
realized how serious it was, but in response to my adver
tisement I" received numerous letters from people thus
situated. One of the most aggravated cases being the
case of B. J. Scannell who owns property on both sides of
Larimore Avenue between 27th and 28th for which he
filed, a petition for water more than , two years ago offer
ing to pay the fifty cents per foot frontage as required by
law, but he met with the .usual blunt refusal, unless he
made "other arrangements." "Other arrangements" is a
term very well'known to real estate men who have laid
out new additions. It is the payment by the property
owners of money in excess of the fifty cents per front foot
not required by law. Omaha has made a splendid growth
in spite of this obnoxious condition, but now Omaha has
grown past the old mains and must have extensions.
With this in view I ask that improvement clubs and
other civic organizations adopt resolutions addressed to
the State Legislature now in session and demanding that
the water board be compelled to extend water mains on
the filing of a majority petition of property owners. This
is no more than just, for a three mill tax has been levied
for the past nine years to create funds for the benefit of
the water plant. I ask those individuals who have suf
fered the hardships of being without water, to write or
personally see the present representatives from this dis
trict, who are'as follows: John W. Cooper, Charles W.
Sears, John W. Robbins, Charles L. Saunders, John M.
Tanner, James Allan, Harry A. Foster, Louis Berka, J.
Frank Burgess, George B. Dyball, Victor D. Reynolds,
Robert C. Druesedow, George C. Porter, Nels A. Lund
gren, John Larsen, A. C. Harte, Jerry Howard, addressing
them at State Capitol, Lincoln, Neb.

But it was a slow process. Some
of our raw materials are nroduced
only in Janan sunnlies in this coun
try were low and shipmntajrouired
three months to come from the Far

train skilled hbor. We brought our

trained th-im as foremen. We in.
vented new machinery, and managed
to install it on Christmas Da", so as
not to interfere with our daily pro
duction. 143 JARS OF VAPOR EVERY
