PLAYSANDPLAY

At the Lyceum Theatre on this Friday
and Saturday, with matinees, the occasion
will be the annual testimonial benefit to
Manager Daniel Humphries and as the
manager is popular with the public it isl
expected that the attendance will be un |
usually large. Manager Humphrlcs be-
lieves in giving people good attractions
and on this occasion he has not been sat- !
ished with securing show which Isl
worth the admission charge but has book
ed one which is worth more than the adj
mission because the attraction never
played anywhere before at popular prices
The main feature will be the appearance
of Edwards Davis and his company ln-
cluding Miss Adele Blood in "A Man Of
tho World" a story dealing with life on
the stage Mr Davis is an author and
actor Of ability. He was formerly a
preacher. Miss Blood Is also well known
as an actress. Tho play Is one of the
strongest ever placed upon the stage. In
addition TO this four-act drama the bill

Pictures, Miss Lillian Lippman In clever
dances and Master Brainard in illustrated
songs. The sale Of seats has commenced
and the manager would be glad to see all
Of his friends az the performances. On
Friday afternoon there will be a souvenir
to each Lady in attendance and on Sat
urday three fine Teddy bears will go to
the children who are successful in draw

FOR "LICENSE''
DR.. c. E. Hexamer Addressed
Large Audience at German
American Alliance Meeting

Under the auspices Of the National
German-American Alliance large
and enthusiastic meeting was held in
Turn Hall last night in opposition to
prohibition, the chief speaker being
DR.. c. e. Hexamer of Philadelphia.
The meeting was opened with sing
ing by the singing sections of the Will
mington Turngemeinde, the Delaware
Saengerbund and the Labor Lyceum,
after which Christian Bauer, president
Of the local branch of the alliance. in
troduced Dr. Hexamer.
Has Many Members
In opening he held that the question
was not one Of politics and reviewed
the history of the alliance of which he
is president. He said the alliance now
comprises 100000 members in forty
States and that if the present pace is
kept up, the membership will reach
100000 in the next five years. The
speaker said it was the intention to
form an alliance with the Irish people
in the near future.
DR.. Hexamer said the alliance was
opposed to local option because it is a
prohibitory measure and no measure
in. the world is more, eonduciYe. 70 hI-
ebriety and drunkenness. The speaker
held that the great argument Of
friends of local option was to the ef-
feet that the majority must rule, but
Dr. Hexamer stated that the majority
has no right to dictate to the indi-
vidual what he shall wear or eat OF
J drink.
Comparison Of States
The speaker compared as an ex
ample Portland, Maine. which is in a
Prohibition state. with Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, which has been made
famous by the beverages it produces,
and which is not restricted in their
sale.
Resolution Adopted
At the conclusion of Or. Hexamer's
remarks the following resolution was
presented and passed unanimously:
"The reasons for our opposition to
prohibition and repressive temperance
legislation from the standpoint of civil
and individual liberty are so we'll
known that we deem their repetition
unnecessary. We cannot. however,
refrain from giving expression TO our
sorrow and regret at the renewed, ILL
advised efforts of temperance reform
ers toward forcing their peculiar views
on the people of the country. With
a feeling of shame do we behold the
humiliating spectacle Of the submis-
siveness Of politicians and legislators.
and the willingness with which, for
political reasons. and against their
better knowledge and convictions, they
come to the aid of such would-be re
formers by reprehensible and injurious
legislation.

ton proves beyond dispute that prohi-

VIII they be happy then2 Not unless
they are healthy, and they can only
be healthy then by keeping them
healthy now.
1t is a mistake TO thinS that children
do not have indigestion. II is a sad
mistake to neglect the health of their
little stomachs. Their health and
strength in after years, as well as
their growth and development at tho
present time. is entirely dependent
upon a healthy condition of the stom-
ach, and normal activity of their di-
gestive organs. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred diseases that children
have are due TO disorders of the
stomach. and these disorders are all
caused by indigestion.
How often have you seen a babe
belch up sour milk? How often have
you heard them complain Of the stom-
ach ache? Nothing but indigestion

Good. Some of the Orleans county
towns see the advantage of the pro-
visions Of this law ana are taking this
progressive step along with the
enterprising towns in other parts of
the state. Barton and other towns
in a proposed union are held back by
one town that refuses to join (the
schools of this town being necessary

is regrettab!e. And when it is fact
that the small towns are the ones to
be most benefited by the union it is
all the more deploraole. 1t will take
some towns a few years TO see the
advantage of this law, and they will
then be just so many years behind.
