FOOD vIOLATORS

For the information Of the people OF
Mississippi as to what steps are being
taken to punish those who disregard
the food regulations
@I) :: : :: :: :: =: !: : =: !: !; !: : :: !"
MzEfE5M We recite the two
M$X@M following instances
MHXx2HMM where merchants dis
MM regarded food regu-
lations and have
&aNwSkM@ been penalized ac-
49, cordingly:
Mr.. r. e. Kenning-
ton, Jackson, Miss, county food ad-
ministrator for Kinds county, advised
Mr.. Harding that A. H. Peterson, a
grocer in Jackson, was selling flour
without regard to food administration
rulings. Mr.. Harding instructed Mr..
bennington to notify all the whole
salers TO cut off this merchants sup.
ply Of flour until further notice.
Other merchants in Mississippi who.
have failed to comply with the regu-
lations of the food administration have
also had theit supplies cut off. A
merchant in Greenwood is not permit
ted to sell either flour or sugar until
after the war, and he stands in the
precarious position that should COM
plants be proven against him of other
infractions his business may be closed
out entirely.

The Festival Dancers

Tonight at the Neighborhood Play
house the Festival Dancers will present
a Festival of Pentecost. The produc-
ton has been made in honor of the
twenty-hfth anniversary Of the Henry
Street Settlement. In the Pentecost, or
midsummer festival, is shown a con-
ception of the harvest celebration that
lla9 come down through the ages, pre-
"a in the Hebrew ritual and in the
folk tradition of almost all lands.
The first scene of the festival shows
the dances and merrymaking of a
simple agricultural people. The second
scene symbolizes the religious observ-
ance of the feast, first in the ancient
and almost universal Offering of the
first fruits, then in the later and more
conscious significance of Pentecost as
the birthday Of the Torah, commemo-
rating the giving Of the Sinaitic law.
The last scene is an Interpretation of
the abstract meaning Of the midsummer
feast-the dedication of youth to serv-
ice. Following the basic pilgrimage

brew agricultural festivals are founded

bridge over which pass all things

A Lady's Past

Louise Beaudet, who plays Mrs.
Stokes, the matchmaking mother, in
"Flo-Flo," has had a most interesting
career. Born in Tours, France, she was
taken by her mother to Paris to live
about the time when she had learned to
talk. There she was introduced to the
mysteries of the theatre and began the
cultivation of her voice. Victor Hugo,
who was friend of Miss Beaudet's
mother, was instrumental in instilling
in the young mind the desire to become
famous, but when troubles came she
and her mother moved to New York.
Here she learned English with VOL
ume of Shakespeare as her textbook.
When she was about twelve years old
Miss Beaudet accompanied Aimee, the
French actress, who was then in this
country, in "The Little Duke" She
stayed with Aimee about two years,
when her voice began to fail her from
overwork, but, giving no heed to her
physicians advice to leave the stage,
she became the ingenue of the Baldwin
Theatre Stock Company, in San Fran
cisco. During her engagement there
she was cast for such characters as
Pauline in "The Lady of Lyons"
Ophelia in Hamlet" Desdemona in
"Othello," Coris in "Narcisse" and Lady
Macbeth.
She then went on a four years tour
with the tragedlan, Daniel E. Bandmann
and upon her return to America became
a member of Rudolph Aronson's opera
company. After leaving this organiza-
tion she Joined Pauline Hall, with
whom she played in "Puritana." Now
followed engagements with Abbey 8
Grau, at the Auditorium in Chicago, as
Progress In "America," which ran fo1
eight months at the Worlds Fair, and
starring engagement at The head o1
her own company, the Louise Beaudet
Opera Bouffe Company, in a repertory
of French opera bouffe.

NEWS AND NOTES OF PLAYS AND PLAYERS
Dressing a Ne1v BABY

This will arouse the interest Of wom-
en- and the pity Of men. The feminine
interest is In the gowns talked Of, while
the pity Of men will go out to the un-
fortunate male who foots the bills.
"Rock-a-Bye Baby" which opened
last Wednesday at the Astor, came to
town with several things worth talking
about, and in its advertising refers to
the girls all dressed up by Lucille"
And they are. Dressing up a single
woman, even though she be the most
frugal Of wives, is no slight undertak-
ing these war-price days, and many q
man has grown op-shouldered be-
meath the burden. What, then, do you
imagine the dressmaking bill comes to
when one woman becomes twoscore
women? Expert mathematicians shud-
der at the problem.
Al eAc HIst pace, every costume
worn by every woman in "Rock-a- Bye
Baby" was designed exclusively by Lu-
cile for her in the particular part she
plays. That is, every gown but one,
but that's another story, and where
there are more than 100 gowns to be
talked of why worry about one?
Just to get down to the hard, cold
cash facts which every man can under
stand, the bill for dresses, capes, hats
and negligees in "Rock-a-Bye Baby
alone mounted far into the thousands
of dollars. And promptly every man
who chances to read this says "Ouch.'
and every woman merely breathes q
little more rapidly and murmurs: "Oh
but aren't they lovely!"
And the truth is both are correct.
1t is doubtful if a more tempting
display of clothes has been spreae
before feminine eyes this year. More
over every man is entitled to say
"Ouchl" for that is all he is going t.
have an opportunity to say. Being

was received by Eugene O'Neill, the

opened, and is more highly treasured by
the young playwright than all the con-
gratulations and good wishes he has re-

FIX PRICE OF CANE SUGAR.

fixed the price of cane sugar for next
year." said Magnus Swenson, Food Ad-
ministrator for Wisconsin. 1.-THE basis
granulated will be 8 cents less 2 per
cent f. o. b. refining points. This be-
came effective on September 8.
Wholesalers and retailers will sell
upon the old basis until their stocks
Iof the lower priced sugars are ex-
hausted. No averaging of price will
be allowed. All increase in price of
sugar in the hands of refners or of
raw sugar under contract is to be &C
counted for to the Sugar Equalization
Board so that manufacturers will not
benefit by the increased price. A
price for beet pulp wet and dry will
be fixed by the Food Administration

course of few days"

UNUSED SUGAR CERTIFICATES
! RELIEVE CANNING SITUATION
Boarding Houses, Manufacturers and
Retailers Give Extra Amounts to
Food Administration fer
Redistribution.

Several hundred pounds of sugar
are being returned to Wisconsin by
summer resorts and boarding houses
during the present season of lull in
their business. Manufacturers using
sugar, retail. grocers and soda foun-
tains are also patriotically contrib
uting their extra amounts to the
State supply.
By mailing to the State Sugar Di-
vision at Madison their unused certi-
fcates, they are greatly relieving the
canning problem. The sugar is imme-
diately redistributed for essential
uses in September. Wisconsin can
not have more sugar this month than
the allotment given her by the United
available, and with the numerous de-
mands made upon the Sugar Division,
they find difficulty in satisfying all re-
Quirements.
No amount returned is too small to
do some good, and people who return
certificates for small amounts which
they do not need instead of storing
them away for next month do the
State a great service by enabling it
to relieve actual shortage of sugar in
some parts Of Wisconsin.
THE gifts of unused sugar certifi-
Gates which are being sent every day
now and will come in until the end of
September prove the much disputed
patriotism Of Wisconsin said Magnus
Swenson, Food Administrator for Wis
consin 1T is such unselfish co-opera-
tion on the. part of its citizens which
enabled Wisconsin to stand out as one
of the states which kept within its
sugar allotment for August"
