"The Bride Shop" admittedly the
leading musical comedy act in vaude-
vile, is to be the headliner at Pan
tages for the change of bill Sunday
matinee. One does not have to take
chances with "The Bride Shop" It is
the highest paid musical act now trav-
cling, and has a reputation of never
having been equalled in it's line. It's
success has caused the right for it's
comedy to be sold for production in
the near future, with the reservation
that the vaudeville edition should have
it's full run. Appearing as star in the
comedy role, is Eddie Vogt. real
star, and assisting him are Lewis Ma
den and Evelyn Dockson, and ten tai
ented and beautiful young women. The
production is the most extensively
costumed and scenically invested of
any tabloid that has yet appeared at
Pantages.
Among the other features on the
BILL are Senator" Francis Murphy, a
monologuist of rare comedy attain
ments, whose very appearance is laugh
able, and who brings new ideas to as
sist in his fun making; Flo and Ollie
Walters, with comedy vehicle, inter
spersed with musical features; Jack
Kennedy and his company, presenting
Willard Mack's latest comedy playlet,
Don't Do IT, a comedy built upon a
divorce action, in which the fun is
brought about through the mismated
couple meeting in a lawyers office;
Rodriguez, the Spanish wire performer
in one of the most daring opening acts
of vaudeville, and others.
The startling Vitagraph adventure
serial, "The Fighting Trail,' is to open
it's tenth episode, drawing toward it's
most exciting closing Incidents. Pan
tages shows the first run of this serial
in the northwest, and has satisfied it's
patrons who are interested in serials
by the way in which the interest is
maintained at high pitch, and it's
strong climaxes to each chapter.

sHUBERT..

A firm believer in the value of va
riety in dramatic offerings, next week
Manager Niggemeyer of the Shubert
will turn from two weeks of serious
drama to comedy, and farce comedy at
that, presenting for the first time on a
Minneapolis stage GA Pair of Queens"
BY way of good measure, the Shubert
will offer two leading women in the
cast, Florence Stone and Marjorie Eos
ter, whose excellent work in "Ro-
nance" will long be remembered by
local theater patrons. Miss Stone will
be .'"The Queen of Hearts" and Miss
Foster '..The Queen of Diamonds" in
the deck of cards comedy. AS to be
expected, the farce "a Pair. of Queens"
has much to do with the two queens
mentioned, and singularly, in the play
both queens are blondes, as are Miss
Stone and Miss Foster. Although
queens, they are of different suites
hearts and diamonds-and the trend of
their dramatic lives lie far apart. "The
Queen of Hearts" is an operator in
the governments secret service, and
the other a-confidence star of the first
magnitude.
The story told in "a Pair of Queens"
has to do with the adventures of a
staid, sober business man, who in the
absence of his wife from home, dimes
with his young brother-in-law in a
public restaurant There they meet
with an unfortunate difficulty, and es-
cape to the older mans home, where
he not only finds his wife has return
ed unexpectedly, but that he has worn
away from the cafe the wrong over
coat. In it's pockets, the man finds
$4,000 in curgGs,- FL ant later discov-
ers it is counterfeit. The two queens
then have much to do with complica-
tions which follow in bewildering rap
idity. The Qneen of Hearts, secret
service agent, is bent upon convicting
the possessor of the spurious money,
and the Queen of Diamonds, confidence
woman, is equally in earnest in re-
covering the counterfeit wealth for her
own reasons. In the end, fortunately,
everything is Strengthened out to the
satisfaction of all concerned, Including
the audience. Robert CONFESS, new
leading man of the Shubert, will be
seen as the youthful brother-in-law,
who like others in the play, falls VIC
tim to the wiles OF the Pair OF
Queens"

HOW THE DRAFT LAW REACHES MEN WHO
 FAIL TO REGISTER

WASHINGTON, Dee. IA. The Provost Marshal General authorizes the following:
 It is generally and wrongfully be- lieved that it is useless to seek out those men who haven't registered because they would not now be able to be reached in the draft. This is not the fact because as each man is registered his ,card is sent to State headquarters where he is as signed a number by the adjutant general of the State If more than two cards from the same district are forwarded at the same time the adjutant general makes a drawing and assigns to the first card drawn the serial number first remaining open on the list of the board and the next card the second number until each card has it's serial num- ber
 Placed in Proper Order.
 These cards thus numbered are then returned to the local board, which immediately applies the master list and fixes the order number of the registrant. If the number which is allotted by the adjutant general proves to be one of those at the top of the list. the registrant is placed on the order list in the place in which he originally would have been placed had he registered at the proper time.
 These provisions of the law make it important that a vigilant outlook be maintained for non-registrants Under the new system, when the final classification is finished every registrant will be furnished with a certificate of final classification which he will be required to pro duce upon demand of the proper authorities. This certificate will finally fix every mans status and will be issued in card form of pocket size A glance at this card will al once show as time progresses wheth- CT a man is out of camp properly. and will serve the double duty of proving registration and compliance with the selective service law.
 Failure to Register.
 The new regulations will deal even more harshly with the man who re- fuses to register and who compels the authorities to indict and convict him, as his right to chance at the master list is taken from him.
 Tho ,,au, ,nO,,1otian provs1oc. Whenever a person who has been convicted of failing to register under the terms of the selective-service law has subsequently been registered as provided by section of that law, his registration card shall not be forwarded to the adjutant general of the state for assignment of a serial number. The local board which has jurisdiction of the registration card of any such person shall as sign him an order number having letter attached which will insure his being immediately inducted into military service and shall inquire into his status and cause him to be physically examined. Unless upon such physical examination he is clas- sified in Class V, or unless he is re- quired by the selective-service law to be exempted from military ser vice, he shall be immediately in ducted into military service and sent to a mobilization camp.
 This provision shall also apply in cases where sentence has been suspended on condition that the per son who has heretofore failed to register be at once called for mili- tary duty by the local board having jurisdiction"
