Strong Move For Pershing Found Among, Delegates to Women's Voters' League . - I. n i i And Now Turning Their Attention to Politics, With Strong' Efforts to Line Up 20,000,000 Votes Rep resentedSay Democrats Behind Objections Made to Military Men Because They Have None. By MYRTLE MASON. Staff Correspondent of The Bee. Chicago, Feb. 17. -Political depths were sounded Tuesday at the Chi cago convention of the League of Women Voters. Mary Garrett Hay for republican women, - and Mrs. George Bass' for the democrats be gan the battle for the 20,000,000 votes of the league. . Women are talking politics, and doubtless wjll register in large num bers with political parties. At pres ent their chief jinterest seems to be in issues and ' platforms, and the intelligent women vote will prob ably go to the party which stands most heartily for the high principles embodied in the League of Women Voters program. Feeling for Pershing. A strong admiration exists among women conventionalists from vari ous sections of the country for Gen eral Pershing. Mrs. George Still of Kirksville, Mo., his native state, says, ,"Of course Missouri would support Pershing." Mrs. Charles Goodman, who came all the way from Georgia to at tend the convention, says of the man who led American forces through a great crisis: "I admire his character." Mrs. Louis F. Middletnook of Hartford. Conn., made the state ment that "everyone says there will he nothing to it, if Pershing runs. Democrats and republicans, alike. would support him, in her opinion. I riA6iHBoT7o7 FILMLAND "PHOTO IlAY' OFFERING J" FOR.' TODAY ("CONSCIENTIOUS UUJliL I . TOR" is a phrase which sprang into prominence with the world war, but there were con scientious objectors many years ago as witness ine reua, me lew Tom Mix picture which is be ing presented at the Moon theater. Tom Mix is seen as Jere Lynch, a conscientious objector of the 1860 period, but what Jere objects to is the feud in which his family is in volved. Tere's scruples against gun play are overcome whfcn his father is shot down. If you like a photo- production with plenty of action in every reel, then see this one at the Moon. Strand Did vou know that show girls press their own clothes? Well, that's what a lot of them do, as you will sec in Constance lalmadges comedy-drama. "Two Weeks," a picture offered at the Strand the ater this week to Omaha movie fans. It is the story of the rise Of a chorus girl to stardom and then giving up the stage altogether be- tause--well,. there usually is a man in Hie case.--'- ' Sun and Muse In "Stronger Than Death," Nazimova returns to powerful emotional roles after her clever impersonation of the chorus waif in her picturization of Maude Fulton S' Moroscp stage play,.

Nazimova is cast as Sigrid, a London music hall dancer, who AT THE THEATERS THAT excellent character actor, Sydney Greenstreet. is still serv ing as the English butler, a role which he created, in the "Rainbow Girl." which Klaw-& Erlanger are offering at the Brandeis tonight and tomorrow night, in his interpreta tion of this part Greenstreet has given a unique ' character to the stage.

Petiova, who is appearing this weeK at the Orpheum. Not long ago her husband. Dr. John D. Stewart, re ceived for her a message from a bo -king agent, a dispatch that read: "In Cleveland next week we want the biggest thing in vaudeville. Can I have you Darling?" But Dr. Stew art understood that the darling was not his wife, but E. V. Darling ot the United Bookinsr offices. On Sat urday night the curtain will rise at 7:55 sharp, t'etrova win ne nrst on trie program. No seating during her act. , Symphony Players Pack Clothes With Their Instruments . Those who have heardthe Minne apolis Symphony orchestra with the entire personnel ot S3 men, and as equipped for its spring tour, of only 60 men, say that one would hardly recognize it as the same orchestra. The 60 musicians are representative musicians, and all of the parts are represented in the smaller orchestra, but the complete ensemble, which will be heard in Omaha for the first time, gives a volume of tone and a sweep to the climaxes, which can only be achieved in a large orches tra. It was the orchestra of 85 musi cians which went to New York and Boston, and won for the Minneapo lis symphony a standing as one of the great orchestras of the country. Mr. Oberhoffer is a conductor of ex ceptional attainments, and the vital ity, buoyancy and originality of style, which has always marked his work in Omaha, will be displayed in its greatest freedom with the com plete ensemble. The orchestra, which travels in three special Pullmans and a bag gage car, will arrive from the west today;. Most of the trunks which carry the instruments, which are all shapes and sizes, are so arranged as to also carry the clothes of the play ers, thus saving space. For Colds, Grip or Influenza and as Preventative, take LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tablets. Look for E. W. QROVS'S aignatua on Ue bos. 10a, "Even those who are opposed to Wilson," she volunteered, "main tain that he did a good thing when he appointed Pershing to head our armies." Asked about sentiment against military men as candidates for nomi nation to the presidency, Capt. Vic tor Heintz, regional director of the republican national committee, with headquarters in Chicago, declared that the talk against military men comes from the democrats, who do not expect to have such a candidate, while the republicans have two with their other good possibilities for the nomination. Nebraska Donort Generous. In less than 30 minutes Tuesday pftcrnoon the League of Women Voters, with Mary Garrett Hay in the chair, raised $50,000 to carry on their work. Nebraska contributed generously, giving $500 as a state organization, with personal donations" of $100 each from Mrs. Draper Smith and Mrs. Charles Dietrich. Mrs. Dietrich made her pledge in honor of Mr. I.ivermore, whose woman suffrage bill introduced in the Nebraska ter ritorial legislature of 1856 was the first woman suffrage bill in the United States. In the name of F. D. Wead. Mrs. Wead pledged $50 and Dr. Jennie Callfas made a per sonal subscription of a like amount. Mrs. Elias S.

Nazimova's biggest scene is her dance on the steps of the temple a weird dance in the moonlight which strikes awe and terror to the hearts of the blacks and causes them to delay their uprising until the British garrison comes to the rescue of the civilian community of Gaya. Rialto "Behind the Door," star ring Hobart Bosworth at the Rialto theater this week, is receiving most fayorable comment from movie fans who have enjoyed the privilege of seeing this picture on the screen. This dramatic picture tale concerns fights on sinking submarines, leaps from battleships, exciting mob en counters and many other incidents that keep the audiece in a state of excitement from the beginning of the first reel until the finish of the last. "Flo-Flo," John Cort's .charming musical comedy, which will be the attraction at the Brnadeis, starting next Friday night, for a limited en gagement of four performances, is full of pep and go. It ran through out one entire season at the Cort Theatre in New York. You are to see the production exactly as it was presented in New York and Chicago and you may be sure that John Cort has supplied a company of the high est merit. Years ago the scenery used in burlesque was painted by "Dobs & Dobs," house painters. But today the better class of burlesque attrac tions have as expensive an artistic production as the big musical shows. As an example Arthur Pear son's "Step Lively Girls" at the Gayety Theater this week is a cri terion. Carmine Vitolo, the artist, painted this season's "Step Lively" scenery and it is along original, un conventional lines for which Vitolo is famous. So things do progress, even in burlesque.

My HEART and My HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase- of Revelations of a Wife How Katie "Saved the Day" for Madge. Curiously enough, my first emo tion at seeing my baby boy turn unrecognizingly from me' and hide his face against his grandmother's protecting skirts was not a grieving disappointment, but furious resent ment against my mother-in-law. I acquitted her fully of' any at tempt to wean the baby away from me, but I was sure that'she was ac tually gloating over' the fact that the child whom she so idolized had preferred her to me. 'When I am older I shall no doubt have com mon sense enough to accept and to smile at this grandmotherly trait of .jealousy universal, I believe, at any rate most young; mothers and fa thers will bear me out in this, I think but for the moment I could have choked, so overweening was the rage that consumed me the rage which I knew I must stifle, of which I must let no hint reach the people around me. "I told you sol" Dicky's voice, laughing, with maddening incom prehension of my state of mind, sounded in my ears. "You will go away for a month, will you? Here, Pete I Come to your dad. That's the boy!" He snapped his fingers at the baby who lifted his head and gurgled delightedly. Both the ges ture and the nickname, "Pete," are tilings I cordially detest, but I have always swallowed my displeasure, knowing that voicing it would only irritate Dicky, and do no possible good. A Sudden Outburst. "Richard 1" His mother's voice dripped disapproval. "I shall not permit Richard Second to come to you when you call him by so dis reputable a name. 'Pete,' indeed! My grandchilul No, no, precious," this to the baby, who had put out his hands to 1 Dicky. "Mustn't go. Stay with granzic." My small son has developed a will of his own, however. Whether his outburst was fright at the con fusion, temper at being thwarted, or a combination of the two I do not know, but at any rate he suddenly sat down hard on the floor, screwed up his face, and sent forth a howl that left us in no doubt as to his displeasure. And when his grand mother stooped to raise him he struck at her with his baby hands. Upon any other occasion I should have "spatted" the hands lightly, as a beginning of baby discipline, but I am afraid that I wickedly rejoiced at the little exhibition of temper. Well, JJick, his brother-in-law drawled,' "I don't think you'll need to send that lad south for his lungs this winter at any rate." Dicky was eying his offspring de lightedly. Junior's outbursts of temper always amuse him. "Mother, why don't you box with him?" he asked. "It would be awfully good practice for the kid. I think he s going to be a feather weight champion, myself." Mother Graham raised her head with the light of battle in her eyes. Inordinately proud of her grandson and his attachmentf or her. I knew that she was both humiliated and ex asperated by the baby's exhibition of temper toward herself. Her eyes fell upon Katie, over whose features had spread a delighted grin, and she was at once provided with a scape goat. Katie! I nervously started at the snap in her voice. "Come and take this child instead of standing there grinning like an ape. There's prob ably a pin sticking in him. I told you to be careful when you dressed him. Knowing Katie's temper. I fairly held my breath a I waited to see what she would do. But to my amazement she evinced no sign of displeasure unless her quickly height ened color could be constructed as such. And I could have sworn that there was a distinctly triumphant Hash in her eyes as she lmrried for ward and picked up the screaming baby. Dot lettle babee. he want - his mudder, dot's all matter by heem.' she observed with a superb air of disdain. "Come babee," she crooned at Junior, whose sobs subsided in stantly. "Vot I tell you to say veil a mam-ma come home? Here mam ma now! Say it, babee, dear." Her voice would have coaxed the wildest bird from its bush. As she spoke she turned Junior gently around so that he was facing me. i saw through her little plot in an in stant and blessed her for her thoughtfulness. She must have been daily reminding the child of me, coaching him in some little speech. Kat Mv mother-in-law cot ou the firs syllable of the girl's name, but I saw her daughter make a quick, hushing gesture, which for a won der she respected. As for the rest of the little group, they were all watching the child with the respect ful admiration generally used by relatives toward a 'first baby. And then, forging another link in the chain of affection that bound me to my faithful little maid, my baby laughed engagingly at me and. lisped the little speech she had taught him: "Hel-lo, mam-ma. Home!" The next instant with my face in his curls, my foolish heartache and my resentment had fled together. (Continued Tomorrow.)
