REPORT ON The
PICTURE HOUSES
Council Committee Learns
That Managers Will Guard
Against Fires

City Council last night heard a re-
port from the public building com
mittee and building inspector on the
moving picture places and playhouses
in the city, which the committee in
spected, to learn what provisions had
been made to guard against fire and
possible panics
The committee reported that all the
moving picture places with the ex-
ception of the Pickwick. had rear
exits. and this playhouse was notified
to install one. which was done the
little theatre having an outlet at the
rear by way Of an areaway in the
back OF the Clayton House.
The committe said it found that
there was not sufficient exits at the
Avenue Theatre, but as the manage
ment OF the house was about TO
change. nothing was done. The COM
mittee, however. expressed the opin-
ion that local people had taken
charge of the theatre, and will MAKE
the required changes, in fact, have
said they would. and will have plans
made at once.
The committee found that the NOV
ing picture machines at Dockstader's
Garrick Theatre and the Grand Opera
Houses were not inclosed in booths,
but that the managements Of both
playhouses would have booths In
stalled. The Opera House manage
ment contended that the booths were
not necessary, as the machines used
by them are the latest improved and
could not catch fire. In Difference
to the wishes of the investigation
committee, however, the managers
agreed TO install the booths.
The committee urged Council 10
notify the Police Department TO have
the police keep the aisles in moving
picture and other playhouses clear.
and see to it that such places are not
crowded.
The report was ordered received
and filed and the Police Commission
notified, as set forth in the report.

One of the most marked of the present day styles
is the straight slender lines The figure simply must
be slimly corseted if one would wear what is new
gracefully.
1t isn't at all question of your figure, but wholly
a matter of how you corseted. Any Parisienne
will tell you that Her devout faith in corsetry has
given the French the name of possessing
the most beautiful form in the world.
American Beauty" Corsets are adopted by the
most exclusive women as the height of corset per-
fection They mold and train the figure into fash
onable lines without hint of discomfort; scientih
cay gored and stayed they yield to the sway of the
body, lending willowy grace as well as slimness.
In the wonderful beauty of the grace and comfort
they create, corset can equal the American
Beauty" at 81 to $5.
Other famous Corsets having full representa-
tion here are Madame Grace, Memo, Thompsons

There Are Many Reasons for
Buying Women's Underwear
Here---The Main One is Quality

In deciding on a price for wOmen's underwear

a little bit better and little lower in price than

the garments advertised today we have carried this
idea out to the letter you viii readily see by the
quality of the garments and the satisfactory service
given.
