To Visit Beauty ParloF,
One OF the important places where

evening will be the Marinello Beauty
Shop, 568 Brandeis Thsater building.
Most Of my friends go there when
they want anything in the line ef
hear-dressing, manicuring or any
other work that improves their per-
sonal appearance. This shop is the
only place in the city where they have
soft water for hair washing and Il
sure makesa difference. Mrs. N. t.
Rice is the proprietor and they say
the city. The equipment at the Mari-
nello Shop is complete, 50 ! have no
fear that Jack will be pleased with
my appearance after my visit there.

Now you will agree that will have
had pretty busy day visiting al
these places, but there Is one other
place ! am certainly going to 60.
Jack and I have arranged for hox
party at the Strand to finish the day.
The Strand is my favorite Omaha
theater. am very fond Of music and
requirement. Then, in addition, en-
joy the big organ when played by the
artists selected by Mr.. Thomas, The
projection of the Strand Is perfeet
and the house has a peaceful and
soothing atmosphere. You never see
a bad picture at the Strand, When YOU
have 4 program like Triangle, Selz-
nick-Clara Kimball Young and Art
craft pictures to select from you can't
go wrong. Tomorrow Mr.. Thomas
tells me he has Jack Devereaux IN
"The Man Who Made Good.p Gee,
won't that be appropriate for my
Jack, and ] will be there, and Jack q
going to make good, too, so he'll see
how Mr. Devercaux does 1t.
This has been most remarkably
interesting week for me, and I hope
you have enjoyed hearing about my
decisions as much as have enjoyed
making them, You'll hear fron me
again after tomorrow, because am
going to write back from my honey
moon trip, and then again after Get
