y Various reasons have been advanced why the
Malihin Christmas Tree has not been held for the
past two years and in no instance has the correct
reason been given. The idea of holding the tree
was dropped two years ago because of the devas-
tation caused by the war in Europe and the fact
that the community contributing heavily to-
wards the various relief funds 1t was believ-
ed that by dropping the public gift giving here
the children would be impressed with the
sufferings of the children of Europe. The same
idea has persisted When the war is over by way
OF extra celebration, the Malihini Christmas Tree
will blossom forth again 1t has not been abanJ
doned at ALL but postponed because of the great
er necessity for giving elsewhere The idea sug-
gested by correspondent in the Star-Buletin yes
terday that the tree was given up because it was
difficult to find malihinis ready to finance it is
absurd. Except for the original tree, the malihinis
never have supported it, Malihinis have helped,
but only incidentally.

ed young actress, Frances Starr, Will

fine compliment to David Belasco
when he instructed his American rep
resentatives to submit this latest play
from his pen TO the famous producer,
and that II he couldn't arrange to give
II a production, TO return the manu-
script. The reason for this unusual
request was that Marie Odile' was
considered by knoblauch to be such
delicate and slender tale depending
upon the creation OF precisely the
right atmosphere for its charm and
beauty, that II could easily be ruined
by a producer less sympathetic and
artistic than Mr.. Relasco. And when
on the opening night at the Belasco
Theater, New York. MIR. Belasco. with
characteristics fairness and pride. ap-
peared before the curtain and told
the audience that he was prouder Of
Miss Starr than ever, his sentiment
was echoed by everyone present who
had witnessed her superb interpreta-
ton OF the little novice in the con-
vent of ST. Odile. 1t In a role demand
ing such gentle force and girlish charm
that II is said to be quite the most
beautiful Characterization Miss Starr

The story OF Marketable" Is laid
among a group of sisters In an AL
satan convent during the Franco
Prussian war Of 1870. The story has
to do chiefly with a young novice, who,
in babyhood was found at the con-
vent gate. and who has been reared
by the sisters solely as the bride of
heaven" without any knowledge of
the outside world. She has never
seen a man. except the venerable
Father Fisher. who ministers to the
spiritual needs of the sisters. and
Peter. the convent gardner. now In his
dotage. In unburdening her heart to
the good Sister Louise, who alone of
all seems to understand the sincere
and innocent nature of the girl. she
confesses that she has dreamed OF a
something" which has not yet been
told her, OF a man." who might be
young and beautiful like the great
picture of st. Michael with his flaming
sword which hangs upon the convent
wall. But the good sister dsftly d.
reefs the young girls thoughts to her
vocation, and to the higher life OF
which alone she must dream, while
she pursues her humble duties of a
servant In the convent.

YANKEE SQUADRON
READY FOR ACTION
First Detachment, Headed BY Bill
Donovan, lands In Sleepy Old
Macon.

Macon, Ga. Feb. 22.-With enough
players on hand tonight to fill out two
full ball clubs, though pitchers would
have to do most of the duty in the
infeld and outfield, Wild Bill Donovan
is all prepared to give the baseball
season OF 1915 it's official send off. To-
morrow morning wild Bill. fanked by
Duke Farrell and Joe Kelly, will start
the preliminary campaign for what
looks like the most successful season
the Yankees have had in many
years.
Donovan and his troopers hit this
little Southern town tonight after
many of the natives had called 1t
day. 1t was journey OF twenty-nine
hours from the land of snow and
white lights to the spring weather and
quietness Of Macon. Wild Bill brought
along eleven players, and he found
seven more awaiting his arrival
Before the hotel register is closed
for February 81 1t Is likely that more
will report and about a half dozen are
expected TO reach here in the morn
ing.
The players now enrolled at the
Dempsey are: Pitchers Caldwell.
Pieh, Heating, Meadows, Russell, Gay.
Finn, Mogridge, Piercey, Love. Brady.

morning.
Captain r. L. Houston, who set the
pace for strenuous exercise at SaVan-
nah a year ago. was with the New
York party tonight, and the captain
left word for an early call for the
links. A daily session at the ancient
game Is one feature OF the program.
Next to the ball park where the
Yanks will train a one-mile track Is
situated, and many a mile is to be COW
cred by the Yankees over this course
before they bid farewell to Macon.
The track will be used as q weight
reducer, and it is likely that the vet
Grams will get more work there than
the youngsters. The crowd of Yanks
here tonight would indicate some care

season They run to lankiness rather

whether the former third baseman of

years layoff and wallop that pill as he
used to for the benefit of the Phila-

all of his old batting tricks still intact.
