WANTS. RICHMOND
MEN REPRESENTED
IN Marine CORPS

Tell more Richmond men to get
into the marines. Is the message from
Ray weisbrod. in a letter received by
Forest Davis. wcisbrod IL enlisted in
the marine band. and is stationed at
Paris Island. s. c.
Since the recent marine activities
in France" he writes, Il am wonder
ing II Richmond men wouldn't be in
terested in knowing more about the
marine corps.
"Out OF $4,000 men on this island In
training now I don't know OF one
man from Richmond. probably because
the home town doesn't support a re-
cruiting office. The Dayton. Cincin-
natl or Indianapolis offices are out for
ell the eligibles they can get since the
increase went through, and l think we
should have q better representation
down here from home. I only know
of three men from Richmond now In
the marine corps-Howard Stein
kamp, Paul James. and yours truly.
"You would be nuts in about
week following this band game doEs1
here. We are maintaining a detaeF.f
ment Of 225 with a plan for sending
out several bands every month.
Through the cooperation Of the voca-
tional man at detention camp must
clans are automatically transferred to
the band just as soon as three months
training has been completed. We are
getting some good men now = this
weeks list includes six men from Con-
ways band, one from the Victor
Thomas band, and cellist from the
Boston Symphony, who will be valu-
able addition to our orchestra. We
haven't quarters large enough to take
care Of the entire bunch now, but
they are framed up good in tent. But
man, when those practice bands start.
it's enough to drive a man to drink

OTIS SKINNER

Otis SINNERS mister Antonio
drew a capacity house at the Grand
Wednesday night and the waiting line
extended into the rain when the show
started. That was Topeka's first trib-
ute to the premier actor But the real
evidence of appreciation was in the
fact that the audience lost all thought
as to the amount of money invested
in seating space and brought Skinner
to the footlights for curtain talk.
even against his will
Maybe the lay of the show didn't
exactly please everyone. But the show
was there with class that has not been
rivalled since William H. Crane and
his all star cast came to Topeka with
the revival of THE Henrietta" Even
there, perhaps, is an expression of ir-
reverence for the renowned Skinner.
But it at least affords a date and
starting point. A dozen curtain calls
indicated the favor and enthusiasm
with which the Mister Antonio" show
was received.
| When Booth Harrington wrote the
present Skinner play, he defied estab-
! lished custom He refused to send a.
country town hick to the city to purify
| the underworld and preach single
standard of morals. So he sent An
| tonic Camaradonio, the Italian hurdy-
| gurdy man, to Avalonia-the self con-
fessed white spot in a black world
to arouse the admitted puritans to
their own silly, narrow, conceited sin
and selfIshness. And Antonio went
| fresh from Third avenue Moo Yawk-
| That the audience should miss moth
| ing, it met Antonio and the puritan
| country town mayor in the realistic
| inside of a Third avenue saloon.
| The disgrace of the Avalonia mayor
and the atmosphere of the Third ave-
nue. saloon was a great home drive
for the w. c. T. U. Agnes Marc was
the lofdy patron of the Third avenue
| place, and her work was one of the
real features of the real show. Joseph
| Brennan, as the mayor of the hick
town, did his best work in the opening
act which revealed the puritan coun-
! try town official trying to grasp the
| details of events of several wild days
/ and nights with a ninth inning rally
| in the quite human and businesslike
saloon.
i Robert Harrison as Joe" the half
| wit partner of the hurdy gurdy man,
was one of the really clever charac-
| tiers in company of strong Skinner
| supporters. The stars own work per-
| haps draws him closer to his audi
| ence than any role which he has car
ried in number of years. He caught
| the sympathy of his crowd and held
! it in a manner scarcely possible in
'tKism et'' and severaf former roles
The company which appears with MFR
Skinner in Mister Antonio has re-
! ceived hut one break since its organ
ization end it's long run in the big

clared the play had lost none of its

Cured His RUPTURE

was badly ruptured while lifting a
trunk several years ago. Doctors said
my only hope of cure was an opera
ton. Trusses did me no good Finally
L got hold of something that quickly
and completely cured me. Years have
passed and the rupture has never re-
turned. although I am doing hard
work as a carpenter. There was no
operation, no lost time, no trouble. I
have nothing to sell. but will give full
information about how you may find
a complete cure without operation, il
