The Dfetrics, who will appear here
soon with their entertainment of Mag
ic and Music, have had a varied expe-
rience as entertainers. Some years
ago their work took them to a mission
In the slums of Philadelphia. As Mr..
Dietrfc appeared on the platform in
evening clothes one of the youngsters
in the front row, who probably had
never seen white shirt excepting at a
funeral. was heard to exclaim, Gee
whiz, look-he is going to be laid out?'
Mr. Dietric is glad to state he was not
laid OUT that evening anyway, for
it was one of their most successful en-
tertainmentS.

On reliable authority Il was stated
today that the so-callcd "flucrta note"

In Mexico. The contention is that
the refusal of President Wilson 10
