WHIMSICAL FUNMAKER
ENJOYS Welded BLISS
Refutes Theory that Comedians
Make Poor Husbands.

Jack" Hazard. whimsical fun
maker Of Miss springtime," coming
soon to the Belasco Theater, is q
refutation Of Lackaye's cynical the
ory that musical comedy comedians
make the worst husbands because
they have no sense of humor." Haz-
zard has proved a most exemplary
husband ever since he welded last
summer the dainty LITTLE singer, Alice
Dovey, who has abandoned musical
comedy to enjoy the pleasure Of his
society on tour. But she gave him n
severe and suspicious look when he
forgot to register her 6pon their ar
rival at a Baltimore hotel the very
first week out.
As a raconteur and writer Of sto-
ries. plays and verse, one volume was
entitled Verse and Worse" Hazard
is generally humorous and amiably
cynical. There is a comic side to
everything in life, as he views II.
"One Of the grandest little traits Of
American character" says Hazzord,
lis saving sense OF humor. It is a
shock absorber and lessons the jolts
as we travel over the rough places.
The comedian and humorIst-one NAV
actually be both-accomplishes a gem
erous work when he helps his fellows
forget their troubles. After all, the
dividing line between laughter and
tears Is thinner than a Hoover ham
sandwich. And at the bottom of real
humor lies sound philosophy"

Contrary Written to- Baker.

Bread issued to United States sod
diers Is wholesome and highly nutri
tious. according TO a menrorGrduu|

prepared following the receipt by thl
Secretary Of a letter from o. MosherI
mayor OF Walnut. Iowa suggesting
a lack Of nutrition in the bread given
American soldiers and advocating SUBJ
stitution OF some war bread
Gen. Goethals reported that ressla-
tons with regard to bread for SOL
diers are particularly strict ana
stated that 1t is not true that the
soldiers are being given bread made
from flour which the gov srnment ba,
declared 70 be "bled white" bv tn.

The report shows that rice, com
meal, rolled oats and rye are being
used with wheat flour. the substi-
tutes being used in proportions which
will render the bread pslatable and

speech adorn this tale, through which

music in which Kalman, the composer
of ''Sari,55 has excelled himself.

bers are: Throw Me a Rose" my
Castle in the Air." THE Garden Of
Romance" "a Very Good Girl on
Sunday" "a Bid for Sympathy"
The old-fashioned Drama" and
THE Love Monopoly"

Lieut.. Labot, Of the French High
Commission. opened the third meeting
Of the Cercle Francois de Washington
last Saturday in the large auditorium
OF the Perpetual Building Association.
1.-THE Marseilles" was sung as q solo
by himself, and he then spoke on cpl
sodes of the war. showing the brav-
cry and devotion OF the French SOL
diers on the firing line.
Prof. Basile G. d'Oualdl. L-esLl, OF
the University OF Lyons, France, un-
der wsose auspices the lectures are
given. spoke on George Washington,
the Friend Of France" He empha-
sized the admiration George Wash
ington had for the French people,
represented by such men as Lafay-
cite and Rochambeau.
George Washington did not only
love the French people because they
helped America gain her indepen-
6ence" Prof d'Ouakil said. but be-
cause he had studied the character
of the representatives who were fight
ing under his command, and he was
able to appreciate their qualities.
their devotion, and their attachment
to the cause for which they were
ready TO die"
Two very beautiful musical num-
bers were executed by an artist Of
renown, Mrs. Jordan. which were en-
Enthusiastically received by the audi

people in Washington.

FAMOUS HARPIST WAS
SOLDIER FOR FRANCE
Carlos Salzedo to Appear at the Ma
tional This Week.

Having had my baptism of fire, I
snail now become immersed in mu-
Sic"
Thus did Carlos Salzedo, the Little
Corporal of the harp, greet these
shores upon his return to America
after a year at the battle front IN
France.
Emaciated and hollow-eyed he came
after having dome his bit" for la
Belle France" But the winter of pri-
vations and exposures spent in the
trenches and the hospitals had very
nearly done for him. It was feared
by his friends and colleagues that he
was too depleted to stand the strain
OF the heavy season of concerts he
was called upon to face. There need
have been no fear. however, for what
Salzedo most craved was work. Work,
so that he might forget his lassitude;
work, so that he might drown the
ever-present memories OF the horrors
he had witnessed. the hell he had
visioned.
And So he worked hard. playing solo
engagements, playing and touring
with the Trio de Lutece, Of which he
is member; worked at composing,
teaching. 1t was fncessant work, but
also-it was recHperation.
, Once again Salzedo is his old de-
bonnair self; the savant and bon
vivant as well as musician. Those
who know his playing best speak of
the increased nobility and breadth
that has come into it-"that spiritual
something" But" says SaIzedo,
surely that IL not strange, you see.
1t was only Salzedo the harpist who
went away, 1t was Salzedo, the SOL
der of France. who returned. VOLTA
