l NEW YEARS PARTY WHICH
DIDN'T GET INTO THE
SOCIETY COLUMN.

Probably none of US who attend
ed 1.-The Goddess of Liberty at
fraction at the Grand New Years
Eve, ever gave the stage folk a
thought after leaving the theater;
but they had their New Years par
ty just the same as the rest of us.
At late hour Saturday night
Joseph E. Howard, composer,-ac-
tor,-playright,- is starring in
'sThe Goddess of Liberty" Com
pany, came into the bakery and Sc
lected several fried chickens, cell
cry, pickles, cheese, bread, cake,
cookies, salad, etc, enough for a
right generous lunch for all the
members of the troupe. He was de-
lighted to find a place where such a
complete lunch could be purchased.
Everything he had thought of
having" he said, was found right
here at the Ideal Bakery and the
stuff did look so good"
Assisted by members of the Choir
us. Howard. with both arms full,
made his way back TO the theater,
where the good things were, no
doubt, served in true Bohemian
style.
Do you doubt that the stage
folk of 1.-The Goddess of Liberty,
Company watched the old year out
happily?

EVENING CHAT
By RUTH CAMERON.

A mere man. has taken sufficient in
terest in feminine compilations and the
treatments suggested for them in these
columns to send in the following re-
ceipt for a good complexion:
Take a routh towel and, starting at
the shoulders, vigorously and thorough
ly, with circular movement, rub the
skin of the entire system, leaving the
neck ard face until the last Rub un-
til a feeling of warmth is induced and
the entire body glows. If sufficient Wig
or is exercised a feeling of mild exhila-
ration relatively akin to the galvanic
energy incarnate in the perfect athlete
should result. Battle the face and neck
without soap, then apply the friction to
the neck The cheeks will then feel
flushed and tingling. 4 few strokes
over the face will convert the tingling
sensation into a glowing feeling Of
warmth. Use due discretion in the APP
plication of the friction, as a severe
rubbing will scrape off the skin, while
mild rubbing will be in effective When
finished IT would be well to go lightly
over the entire body with a camers hair
brush, to eliminate any accumuiations
of lint from the towel.
This massage friction treatment has
the advantage of being constitutional,
local and natural, as it produces an
enhanced circulation, en1ivens inert and
elogged pores and if persisted in, will

ButSisn't such a blessing as a good
complexion decidedly worth that? !.
We have young married women's
club and young girls club and moth
ers' clubs, why not have grandmoth-
ers' clubs ?-is the suggestion of one
of my readers.
Why not, indeed?
When a woman reaches the grand
mother stage that usually means that
her collaborating and most of her
collaborating period is past and that
she will be apt to have more leisure
than she has ever had before in the
course of her married life.
1t also means that as her children
with their exacting and overlooking
young lives pass out of the home she
will be in much need of greater in
ward resources and of more intellec-
tual and impersonal interests to keep
her happy
Seems to me that in every town
there ought TO be a Grandmofhers.

society of grandmothers in which the
peculiar trials and joys of grandmotfl-

THOMAS DlxoNs NEW PLAY.
"The Sins of The Father" to Be Pre-
sented With Its Famous Author
in The little Role.

The whole country is talking about
the new Thomas Dixon play, @The
Sins of The Father which will be
presented with Mr.. Dixon himself as
the star at the Auditorium next
Thursday, March 9.
The discussion spreads in ever
widening circles, and presently the
whole nation will be involved in the
controversy. Should Mr.. Dixon have
selected such a theme for dramatic
treatment? is the question first furi-
ously discussed, and next, Has the
author presented true picture? Hun
dreds of thousands of Mr.. Dixon's sup
porters answer an emphatic "Yesl"
to both questions. They admit "The
Sins of The Father" is even more sem
sational than "The Clansman," but the
facts had to be told and the results
will be beneficent. Whatever the is
sue of the controversy, Mr. Dixon's
new work has wrought tremendous
impression. Praise it or criticize it
as You will, the play is full of life,
vigor, rollcking comedy, teams, COM
pelling pathos. swift action and ex-
citing climax To miss 1t is to ignore
one of the biggest things on the stage

ALL TOWNS MUST
HOLD ELECTIONS
Attorney General Sets Forth the Pro-
visions of the State Law
Governing Towns.

Some question has been raised re-
garding the spring elections in the
smaller towns of Oklahoma. The fol-
lowing letter by the attorney general
to a citizen of Skiatook explains the
town elections to be held in April:
Oklahoma City. Okla, Feb. 25.
Mr.. AL. K. Feigley,
Skiatook, Okla.
Dear Sir: Answering your letter Of
February %, you are advised that city
and town elections are conducted by
the county election board. The law
applicable thereto ia contained in ar
ticle 20 of chapter Is of the compiled
laws of Oklahoma, 1909, Snyder. as
amended by chapter 92 of the 1910 ses-
sion laws.
Incorporated towns are entitled to
elect clerk, assessor, marshal, treas
urer, town justice, and two trustees
from each district; all are elected for
a term of two years except the mar
shall, who is elected annually. The
term of Office of these officers elected
in April, 1909, expire on the first Mon
day in May, this year.
In addition to the officers elected in
April, 1909, there should have been
one trustee in each ward, in April,
1910. who would have held for term
of two years ending on the first Mon
day in May, 1912. but If no additional
trustees were elected in April, 1910,
then the trustees elected in April,
1909, were empowered to fill the va
cancies by appointment, and in towns
where no trustees were elected in
April, 1910, two trustees are elected
from each district this year, one for a
term of one year and one for full
term of two years, and none of the
present officials would hold over.
If an incorporated town has only one
trusteeN from each district, its board
Of trustees would not be able to take
any action which would bind the town
except to appoint one additional trus-
tee from each district
All candidates for town Offices must
file their notice with the county cleo
tion board not more than twenty nor
less than ten days before the third
Tuesday of March, which notice must
set forth his name as he desires it to
appear on the ballot, his postofice ad-
dress, the name of the Office for which
he desires to become a candidate. the
name of the party for which he de-
sires to be candidate, and the date
of the primary.
Respectfully,
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
