LITTLE ONES SHOULD HAVE PARTIES
THE SAME AS THEIR OLDER SISTERS

Mothers with little ones know that
they must have parties once in a while,
Just as their grown-up sisters and
brothers. and part of the education
of the child is teaching II the duties
of hostess and the nice little courtesies
of entertaining.
The play at parties must not be as
boisterous as II may be at other times,
and this sense of decorum is another
of the things child learns when it
begins to give or attend parties. Moth
ers are often at their wits end TO
know how TO amuse the children, for
this must be all arranged for before
hand or the party will prove a failure.
A lady who visited recently in an
English country house is telling her
st. Louis friends about a children's
party which she attended over there.
II was garden party, and the little
ones were all gathered together in the
large tent prepared for them. after
they had greeted one another and had
some time to get used to the inviron-

VAUDEVILLE in
BIG COMBINE
Keith And Proctor Company
File Articles of InCOrpOra-
tiOn at Dover

Articles Of Incorporation OF the United
Theatres Securities Company. with 5000
600 capital have been filed with the State
Department at Dover, an act which brings
closer together the vaudeville interests
east of the Mississippi river, and which
may be the forerunner Of a change in
the vaudeville situation west Of the river.
The incorporators are b. r. Keith, f.
F. Proctor. e. f. Albee. William Ham
merstein and Percy G. williams. Of New
York NJ. Shea, of Buffalo and Toronto;
James II. Moore. Of Detroit and Roches-
ter Harry Davis, Of Pittsburg; A. Paul
Keith, S. Y. Poll. of Springfield. and p. B.
Chase. OF Washington. These men practi-
cally control all the large vaudeville in
terests east Of the Mississippi, with tse
exception of the houses managed by Will
liam Norris. Inc.
From rumors which were denied in New
York It would seem that this combination
has been effected to forestall any action
that might be taken by Martin Beck,
manager of the Orpheum circuit, a West
ern circuit to come TO an agreement with
William Morris by which he, Mr.. Beck,
would find an Eastern opening for his cir
cult.
Mr.. Beck, while in New York denied
these reports and has called attention to
HIS contract with the United Booking Of
fees, in which he has agreed not TO have
a theatre east of Cincinnati. William Nor
ris has consistently denied any intention
Of combining with any enc.

piece Of paper, a pair OF scissors and
several pieces of colored chalk. The
children Of the hostess attended TO this.
Each child was told TO cut out a but
terhy as well as she knew how, and
with the callI TO make the spots, anten-
nae and so on.
When the butterflies were completed
they were gathered up ard pinned on
the wah, making quite a pretty pic
ture gallery. While the children were
enjoying the refreshments. judges
passed around and picked out the
three best pictures. The name OF the
artist was on the back. and when this
was read and three prizes distributed
there was great excitement among the
little ones. OF course. Il need not be a
butterfly, but most children are as
familiar at this time of year with this
insect as with any other, and, at any
rate. after such contest they will
examine more closely the butterflies
they find.

called for an explanation she sent word
down to him that she was not sure OF her
self. and would not marry him for fear
she might regret the step.
Mr.. Leewright was very much broken
up and went away for a time. Several
months ago he came back, and Miss
Landis heard Of it, but they did not meet.
Miss Spence is a close friend of both. and
she frequently found Miss Lands low

she decided that her two friends still

At the home of the brides parents in
Roxborough there was great surprise
when the news Of the marriage reached
them. When the couple wired from this
city that they had been married here and
we're coming home a brother went to the
train to meet them, and carried the mes
sage Of the forgiveness of the family.
Although Miss Lands left her home

MAIDS AND MATRONS
SHOULD USE LOGIC

Any girl with an ordinary public
school education can do something to
improve her mind d little every day.
She can read page of some good
book-a book of travel. or a book OF
history, or book of poems. or "a book
Of essays-and she can think Of what
she has read, and by copying in a
blank book a few sentences or lines
which impress her she can improve
her knowledge Of spelling and phras-
ing. so that she will acquire after a
year of such practice a better educa-
tion than many high school graduates
possess.
Any librarian will advise an ambiti-
Gus girl what books to read for self
culture.
To read a novel hurriedly, Just for
the sake Of knowing "how II comes
out" is only a waste Of time and brain
power.
Good novels arc worth reading, but
they should leave something in the
mind besides the story, OF they are
better left unread.

feared the work in the yards would

men refused to go near the snake, and
everyone about the vicinity of the
reptile made a hurried escape. Finally
a shifting engine was secured and run
down the tracks. The engineer waited
until tho snake started TO cross the

cially successful before the supreme

TO FIGHT ATTACHE GRAFT
House Minority Determined to Push
Reconsideration Of Resolution Of
Last Week.

There is movement on foot 10 cur
tail the number of attaches In the
legislature. Several members having
signified their inte1tion Of taking this
stand. These members, who are com
mitted to policy of retrenchment,
were not fully aware of the purport
OF the resolution presented last week,
and believe in justice to their cam
paign pledges that they should. go on
record as being opposed to 50 many
useless attaches. Ie given the oppor-
tunity they will argue that 1t was ad-
mitted by Governor-elect Glasscock
during the campaign that too mucn
money was wasted in salaries and
that promise was made to cut down
this source of expense
1t seems likely that in this effort
the members who will attempt to
have the resolution Ia question re-
considered will have the cooperation
of the democratic side of the house.
1t is extremely doubtful however, IL
this movement amounts to much, as
large number OF members desire to
continue the graft.
The house will differ from those OF
last session, in that they will re-
quire only majority vote for the i'm
mediate consideration OF certain
measures. In other words, Rule No.
Sc, the most important to the demo
Gratis, will be amended.
