ORPHEUM

Two acts of exceptional interest
share headline hOnors on the new
Vaudeville opening at the Orpheum
theater today. Martha Hamilton
and company offer a clever comedy
sketch entitled "Oh You Women"
which was designed solely for laugh
ing purposes. First Of all it is trua
to life and there is not hamlet
so small but what some one in the
community knows Of like exper-
Hence. The story tells OF the trouble
that arises when a young wife loses
the money her husband gives her
playing cards and has to- purchase
the household necessities on the in
stallment plan. The John-Dean Re
vue, combining novelty singing and
plantation dancing viii make g real
hit with lovers Of 'tazz" tunes. 1t
comes direct from a 10 weeks en-
gagement with Nora Bayes company,
where II has been playing at the
lEltinge theater in New York. Songs
and dances Of Hawaii and Dixie are
| featured, all the seven members Of
the cast seeming to dance for the
sheer Joy OF IT, One Of the talented
members OF the company gives an
excellent impersonation OF George
Primrose and his soft shoe dancing
that reminds one OF the dean OF soft
shoe dancers In his palmiest days.

long enough TO rest ones sides for

Not the least Of Miss Bayes' many
oddities and eccentricites is the
clever manner IN which she words

nouncement was worded as follows;

that Mr.. II. II. Frazee, with the val
