Society
WHO said actors lead a dog's
life?
If they ever did, those
days passed with Delia Fox and the
Floradora sextet. Nowadays actors
live in ease and comfort that make
presidents and kings green with
envy.
Over at the Orpheum this week
are a couple of hard-working thes
pians. They are Len D. Hollister
and Leona Stephens, otherwise Mr.
and Mrs. Hollister, who are appear
ing in a sketch, "Out in California."
They have been Mr and Mrs. for
so few weeks that they are still
hpneymooning and theirs is a most
novel one.
Thy are touring the Orpheum
circuit .and traveling from town to
town in a big eight-cylinder racing
car. In order that they may enjoy
the trip and their honeymoon with
out being rushed, Mr. Hollister has
arranged booking for every other
week. With the exception of the
20 minutes they are on the stage
each afternoon and evening, they
spend most of the time just honey
The Hollisters have their route
arranged so that by the time winter
comes, they will be playing in Cali
fornia, and will not have to forego
the pleasure of their car.
The cV is equipped "with disk
wheels to plow through the worst
roads and has puncture-proof tires,
x which Mr. Hollister says are not
puncture proof. a
"When we land In a town," says
Mr. Hollister, "we are so dirty that
hotel clerks are douDtful whether
to give us rooms or not for fear
' people in our condition may not be
able to pay for them. We may have
to sleep in a cornfield yet. But the
chance to really see the country
and the cities in which we play is
worth the chance."
Mr. and Mrs. Hollister are living
at the Blackstone during their stay
here.
Helms-Cook.
The marriage of Miss Elizabeth
Cook and Donald V. Helms was

Heartbeats
By A. K.
The Demon Dalton drive' is illustrated in the above snapshot of
Dorothy Dalton of film fame, on the tennis courts. Dorothy has invented
a new service racket clasped in center, swung up and behind the head,
et cetera which is simply out of sight, as the British say. The tennis
ball is frequently out of sight, too, having sped over the backstoos into
the ethereral firmament; for thaugh she has plenty of speed, control is
sometimes at a premium.

How many maids
Have dreamed
And dreamed -
Of luxury and riches
How nightly
On the glittering stage
The actress
Reigned supreme
Tffat flowers and diamonds
Came as gifts
Ancrfcold rolled in
By tons and tons
Not in exchange for art
Oh, no!
It came BECAUSE of art
Limousines And waiting maids
To gratify
Her every whim
And lords
And kings
And managers
Basked in the sunlight
Of her smile and
Trtmbled
Subservient
t her slighfest frown.
ut alasl
Their dreamiest dreams
Are shattered
The mask
Has been torn
From publicity's face
And the brilliant
Footlights
Have gone out
Leaving the grayness'
Beyond the stage.
Stripped of its falsity.
Shocked
Though we may be
At the naked truth
Actresses work
For money
To buy food
And clothes
Not unlike
The village maid
And they strike
Just like barbers
And trainmen" '
For wages,
Refusing to rehearse
Their art
Without compensation
The wealth which
We had heard about
Through press agents
Of nimble wrt
Was just enough
For one week's food
If purchased at
The Automat.

days in Chicago and Milwaukee.
Mrs. Turner Carlisle left Thurs
day evening' for Grand Island to
visit her sister, Mrs. Roy Menck.
George E. Lee has returned from
Denver.
These days the face needs scecial care
and attention. Flying dust and dirt, the
beating sun, are severe on any skin. Their
despoiling effects are best overcome by
the application of pure mercolized wax.
This keeps skin and pores in a cleanly
condition, the complexion beautifully white
and spotless. Reddened, tanned, freckled
and roughened cuticle are actually ab
sorbed by it. One ounce of mercolized
wax, obtainable at any drug store, is suf
ficient to completely renovate a soiled
complexion. It is used like cold cream,
allowed to remain on over night, and
washed off in .the morning.
It is simply splendid for use after a
motor trip, an afternoon, at the tennis
courts or on the golf links.
Mrs. George E. Mickel entertained

Autumn Days Approach
Apparel for women and girls is ready for inspection in daily growing quantity

One year ago we entered the Autumn season-in great depression. The future of the world was in the bal

optimism and joy is expressed through the magnificence of clothes. Never has art so displayed itself in a riot
of richness and color. Models are captivating.
Beauty and economy appeal to the early buyer. The beauty it evident. The economy it brought to you
through our wise anticipation. The market is steadily advancing, and production lags behind demand. The re
sult is inevitable a severe shortage of 'desirable garments later.
