Mitzi says she was compelled to change

This is brand new New York success that promises to be the best production of the Redmond season. It's 300 nights of continuous playing on Broadway is sufficient guarantee of it's real worth and as the entire case of Redmond players fit into the various roles like the proverbial glove, real banner performance is assured by the clever stock organiza- tion.

ance the smart musical conceit in three acts, entitled: "A Thief in the House." This current Broadway sue cess may be termed the "so indif- ferent play" for it does not rely alone upon it's screamingly funny situations and peppery musical intel polat1ons to make it a huge success but it contains as well one of the most original plats ever conceived and each line scintillates with pure and wholesome wit
 The story revolves about the myst- erious disappearance of a famous necklace and through a strange twist of circumstance the gent who has practically pilfered the treasure makes his appearance in the home of | a lawyer who at that very moment | is visiting the city in which the l robbery takes place. The lawyer has been retained by the scapegoat son of the woman who has been robbed; to secure a bunch of letters from a real vampire who is attempt l ing to thwart his marriage to a society bud. A tangled skein is woven about the letters and neck | lace and everyone in the lawyers l household is involved until at length | the real crook in order to straighten l out the entanglement assumes the I guise of a detective and claimes the reward by returning the jewels The complications follow upon one another i in such rapid fire order and the hearty laughs come so fast and furi- ous that the interpolated numbers come as a welcome relief to aching sides caused from the incessant laughter. Ed. Redmond will appear as the real crook, Myrtle Dingwall as the lawyers wife, Joe Kemper, as the lawyer. Marvin Hammond as the innocent accomplice of the crook. Minor Reed in the role of the mysti- fled butler. Billy Cochran as the scapegoat son, Robbie Deane in the role of the vampire, Mae McRae as the aunt who desires to stir up trouble, Mrs. Ed Redmond as the irate owner of the establishment,
 Eddie Mitchell as the blundering po- lice officer and the bevy of dancing maids as guests in the household.
 "A Thief in the House" will hold
 the boards throughout the entire
 week with matinees on Wednesday
 Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

YOUR LIBERTY BOND.

~ EDWOOD Falls has just one busi-
ness of prime Importance these
- days and that is to place her quota
of 100000 of Liberty Bonds. Until that
is done the city should neither slumber
nor sleep. Redwood Falls has always done
her bit in matters of patriotism and pub
lie support-she will do it this time. Event
ually, why not now, might well be the
greeting of solicitors to solicited.
Remember, these are your bonds, my
bonds, OUR bonds, and it is up to us to
take care of them, each one OF us should
ering an amount to the limit OF our in
come and then going to the bank and
borrowing enough to exceed this limit. The
Hill of Bonds can be taken ION high" II
we will see that all cylinders are working
together and all chip in to buy the gaso-
line. If we don't take it this way, it is
apt to become the unsurmountable Hill of
Bondage and we will have to take it the
time-costing process.
Make no mistake about this thing! If
YOU CAN buy Liberty Bonds and don't
YOU are that most despicable thing in this
day of our country's need-a Stacker. 1t
YOU can buy $500 and you are only buying
$50, you are inexpressibly cheap-a thing
which an American hates next to treason.
Many people are not buying bonds these
days-they are merely buying buttons.
One $50 bond will give them this emblem
of honor and clear their skirts OF the
taint of Stacking, so far as the world
knows, and so they spend the $50 where
they could as easily spend $500. These
are the people who would be capable OF
salving their consciences by giving a
starving and naked child a penny with
which to buy food and clothing. They are
unspeakably contemplate.
That we of Redwood Falls and Redwood
County may arrive at the full conscious
ness of having done our best; that we
may look our soldier boys in the eye and
say honestly "You were willing to give
your lives for us and so we did the little
we could for you;" that we may feel each
in his own heart, that we nave seen the
great light and have done our personal
bit to make it world light; that the full
fillment of Christ's ideal may be hastened
upon the earth; let US BUY OUR BONDS.
Not tomorrow, nor next week nor next
year, but TODAY.

LEST WE FORGET.

TOR lot of really nice people Red
II wood Falls audience can do more
Grass crude and objectionable things
in a short space Of time than any aggre-
cation we yer saw. For instance! The
other night at the armory we thought
how unusually well behaved the audience
was; nearly every one had managed to be
on hand at the hour appointed for the
opening number of the program; the small
nervous boy was agreeably absent from
the front seat; not more than sixteen hig--
school girls were chewing gum and not
many more than that whispered right
through the best music the city has had
the privilege of listening to for many
weeks. We thought the evening was 60
ing to be grand success. But horrors !!
When the orchestra started the strains
of The Star-Spangled Banner we DID all
rise, but instead of standing attentively
quiet-at attention as it were-the ma
jority of us struggled into coats, fused
with hair and hats and few of us de-
liberately left the hall before the selection
was nearly finished. A small thing, you
think, to make remarks about. Well, it
is the small things which show our breed
ing and also the lack Of it. AS we saw a
peculiar little expression fit over the face
of the soloist who was singing, we just
wondered what her impression of Red
wood Falls really was, anyway. We weren't
proud at just that minute, of the old home
town.
