the life and pep" so noticeable in vau-
devillians. His keen wit and excellent
sense OF comedy welcome him any
where. 4 pleasing feature Of last
night was when he stepped out Of his
character after the second act and came
before the bright lights and sang four
or 1--WE songs which he had recently
composed. Mr.. Bowers ability In the
adventures Of a Conan Doyle proved
more than interesting. Complications
came so fast and furious that the audi
ence was kept in a constant uproar.
Dolly Castles. as Fin, Is a gay little
blonde Of a pleasing type, and attracted
many.
TWO dancers OF exceptional grace and
manner are Miss Eleanor Larsen and
Frank Oakley. The song hits OF the
evening were Cant Forget Your Eyes.
Sunshine" and I'm So Happy" An
added attraction In the second act was
the music by the big jazz band, led by
Dolly Castles, as Fin.
The costumes are most alluring. The
music Of I'm SO Happy" Is by Fred
erick V. Bowers, In which he has
shown he can write songs as well as
he can sing them. The whole evenings
entertainment Is pleasing and the
crowded house that witnessed Il last
evening was more than pleased.
There will be matinee and evening

Camp Dix soldiers. Although the mar
ket price is now half a dollar a pound
Uncle Sam will provide enough turkeys
for every man in the camp 10 satisfy
the best appetite he can cultivate for
the feast. Captain Bethke, camp sub
slstence officer, has arranged for a ship
ment Of 10000 pounds OF turkeys for
distribution 10 the mess kitchens
throughout the camp. Pumpkin pie and
all other "1xins" needed 10 make thc
spread the best Of the year will be
provided and there already is much
competition among mess sergeants for
the honor Of putting across the best

Of the cantonment, finding hotel accom-
mOdations has been a serious problem
for visitors. hut 1t will be largely
solved with the opening OF this 100
room structure.
The new hotel is a big, white four
story building Of Colonial architecture
and is situated on the side Of Wright-
town nearest the base hospital. The
Salvation army has erected II at cosi
Of approximately 100000. The project
has been directed by Colonel w. \. Nc
