Daniel Frohman. in collaboration with
Isaac F. Marcosson. the magazine writer.

time. 1t was Mr.. Marcosson who per-
suaded Mr.. Frohman to write his remi-
niscences of the old Lyceum, and the
book is dedicated to him.
The life Of Charles Frohman will be
comprehensive. In addition to being the
rich biography of a man whose death on

MORE THE FRENCH
DOLL WILL MEET ALL HER
LITTLE FRIENDS IN CITY
The Jolly Clown and For
lorn Teddy Bear Also
Will be There.

Miss May Curtis is going to give
party. A children's party. And
moreover, French doll party. Once
more the pretty French doll will meet
all OF her friends-and indeed she has
q great many-the jolly clown will
dance and caper, and the forlorr,
Teddy Bear will look on at his young
friends, and everything will be lust
as happy as it can possibly be-as
happy, we hope, as last year. when
the French doll party was such a
wonderful success.
Don't you think the children
would rather have some other kind of
party?" was suggested. sMaybe a
new sort of party, something they
have never tried before, would please
them best
But Miss Curtis would not hear to
any other kind of party, for the
French doll is very popular, indeed.
So the pretty French doll will meet
her friends at big afternoon party
some time very soon. We will tell
you more about it later, but for the
benefit of the boys and girls who
have not met the French doll and The

these three friends of the Pensa cola

ROBERT BRENT
To LEAvE: FOR
TURKEY SOON
Young Pensacolian to Start
Saturday on Long and
Dangerous Trip.
EXPECTS TO STAY
FOR THREE YEARS
Goes to Represent Firm En-
gagged in Importing Lico-
rice Root from Turkey.

Robert Brent, who returned home
recently from Philadelphia, where he
mas been employed for several
months, win leave Pensacola in few
days for New York, there to embark
on long and dangerous journey. His
destination is the. interior of Turkey
and while the trip, during normal
times, would be considered a pleas
ure Jaunt, it is now one that IS un-
dertaken by few and the young PEN
sacolian docs not anticipate getting
through to his destination without en-
countering both hardships and dam
gers.
Mr.. Brent is in the employ of a
firm in Philadelphia which is engaged
IN the Importation of licorice root
from Turkey. 1t is one of the few
sources of supply and the war, with
the resultant decentralization of ship
ping from Turkey has SO curtailed the
supply that the Philadelphia firms
plant in New Jersey will be compelle ed
to close unless some ARRANGEMENTS
can be made to get shipments
through. This firm supplies tobacco
factories and also many of the manu-
featuring druggists with licorice.
With the supply curtailed the New
Jersey factory will be unable to sup
PLY these concerns and there win
therefore be shut down Of All FAC
tories where licorice is necessary in
the manufacture of goods.
1t therefore became necessary for
the Philadelphia firm to endeayor bv
some method to get in communication
with the source of. supply and to ar
range for some method of getting
the shipments through. Young Brent
was selected for the job of going to
Turkey, with the promise of an excel
lent reward should he succeed.
He will get his passports and ali
other necessary papers and start out
on steamer from New York Satur-
day. He may be gone for three wears
or longer. 1t is not likely that he
will be received with open arms in
many of the countries through which
he will be compelled to pass. It will
be necessary for him to get through
battle lines, cross mountains and pen
ertate far into the interior of some of
the belligerent countries which. of
late, are beginning to look upon Amer
leans with some degree of suspicion.
