ance will be given. This year is to

President Wilson writes, Il desire
to entrust the Boy Scouts of Ameri-
ca with new and important com
mission, to make them the dispatch
bearers in carrying to the homes in
their communities the pamphlets on
the war prepared by the Committee
on Public Information. The excel
lent services performed by the Boy
Scouts in the past encourages me to
believe that this new task will be
cheerfully and faithfully discharged" /"
AS an official government dispatch

credential card
The Boy Scouts did wonderful
work during the second Liberty Loan
campaign Their total subscriptions
amounted to $101, 1873, 500 secured
from 525.527 subscribers In this

ing and demonstrated to the nation

"Chu Chin Chow )" Tenor

Those who see the great spectacle Of
''Chu Chin Chow" the wonderful
Oriental extravaganza coming TO
PolTs Theater this week, will be much
interested in the personality OF the
young man who sings the tenor role
of Nur Al Huda-Ah. His name Is
George Raseiy and this is the first
time he has ever been upon the pro-
fessional stage. Experienced theatri-
cal men who have seen his perform
ance marvel at the perfect composure
and self-confidence OF this young man
who is only % years Of age and whose
clear, beautiful tenor voice was one
of the notable features Of this very
unusual production.
Perhaps one reason why Mr.. Rasely
is so self-confident in the use OF his
voice is that he has been singing for
the past two years in the Fifth Ave
nue. Presbyterian Church in New
York, commonly known as the Rock
efeller Church. because Of the fact
that John d. Rockefeller, jr., teaches
a Bible class there. Mr.. Rasely, in
fact, still sings there every Sunday
when he is in New York. He is a
native of Worcester. Mass, and his
father is a retired clergyman. now
living there. He studied music in
Boston and sang as tenor Of the New
South Church. Copley Square, Boston,
and achieved such success there that

Stuart Walkers production of Booth
Tarkington's Seventeen" commences
an engagement at the Belasco Thea
ter this week. beginning tonight, with
Gregory Kelly and the original Booth
Theater cast.
The play is a dramatic version of
Tarkington's Willie Baxter stories
and might be called a comedy of
clothes and the girl. for it deals with
the attitude of a 17-year-old boy to-
ward these important matters. Willie
Baxter. the hero, falls in love with a
fluffy haired charmer who comes to
visit the Parchers next door. His girl
proves an aIl-round flirt, and as
would-be Beau Brummel he lacks
dress clothes. How he surreptitiously
acquires his fathers old dress suit
and "swanks" around in It; how he
and his fellow SWANS nearly drive
the Parchers mad with their ever
lasting conversations about love-, how
Willie's impish little sister Jane tat
ties and he is deprived of the joy
of the parental dress suit; what des-
perate means are employed. to- ac-
quire the use of the sacred garment
for the girls going away party-thess
are some of the weighty matters with
which the story. and also the play, is
concerned.
With rare skill Stuart Walker has
transferred the Harrington story to
