Belle of Bingyille." 1t Is one Of those
big laugh features from start TO hnish
Ward and Raymond, well groomed,
good looking man, who carries per-
petual smile, and a beautiful woman
with classic features, constitute this
duo of clever artists who present an
act consisting Of singing, talking and
dacing. Viola Lewis and company.
consisting Of boy and two girls, are
three of the best trio Of Juvenile en-
tertainers today in vaudeville. They
are billed as "A Family Triangle OF
Talents" They certainly live up to
this title, as they sing, dance, play the
violin and offer comedy that creates
untold laughter. Most important OF
this triangle is little maid OF
years of age who sings comedy songs,
dances a hula-hula number and wins
the heart of every patron with her
quaint mannerisms and eccentr1cltles.
The Bimbos, complete little man,
seeminglyendowed with energy enough
to satisfy a body three times his own
size, and a young woman with Won
derful knowledge OF acrobatics, pre-
sent an Offering which they bill as
Comedy Acrobats With Chaplinian
Tinge," consisting of bumps and falls
from tables and barrels that are not
only funny but amazingly daring and
sensational The Royal Gascoignes,
wizards of gravitation, complete the
bill. Also the 18th episode of THE
Fighting Trail serial will be shown.
yI,c VlIsuosc
The bill at the Illinois, commencing
today and continuing for the remain
der of the week, has as its feature
Clark's Killarney Girls. Three pretty
girls comprise this act and offer some
splendid harmony singing and solo
work. In pretty dress Of the Irish col
leen style these girls present a quaint
picture and sing songs, new and old,
in an altogether fascinating way.
, Wray's Mannikins will be close sec
ond for honors, as it is very far remov-
ed from the ordinary mannikin act.
A miniature circus is presented, with
the tiny mannikins representing the
various animals. Mac and HaZelle are
two very clever musicians whose Of
fering is classy music with plenty OF
good comedy interspersed. Miss Ha-
zelle possesses a very pretty voice and
sings while Mac plays various instru-
ments. The Gregorys, who call them
selves "Those Ozard Folks" present
melange of singing, talking and
dancing. Their comedy is very re-
freshing, while the songs they sing are
all new and cleverly put over. A little
dash of eccentric dancing makes the
act laughing hit Scamp and Scamp
have a real novelty in their acrobatic
act. Special scenery and odd bits of
pantomime. together with the wonder
full feats of balancing, make up an act
of unusual merit. A Pathe of recent
release will also be an interesting part
of the current bill.

The worlds supply of'wheat at

per cent of the American diet, the

harvest we have had here this

DR.. P. P. Claxton, United States
Commissioner of Education re-
Gently defined Americanism as
follows:
From all over the world we
have come, mostly sons of the
poor, all striving to better our
condition in some way, all looking
for a larher measure of freedom
than was possible for us in the
countries from which we came.
Here. free from the domination of
autocratic government and from
the poisoning influences of deca-
dent aristocracies, forgetting our
fears and servile habits, we have
elevated the best from all coun-
tries into common possession,
transfused and transformed it !
by our highest and best ideals
and called it Americanism. A
new thing this is in the world,
and the most precious possession
the world has. Though incom-
plete and still in the formative
stage, growing richer and grand
er as the years go by, constantly
clearing and purifying itself, its
form and spirit are quite well
determined"

The Presidents View

In relation to the Food Admin.
istration's campaign for world re.
lief, President Wilson's peace
message contained the following,
Hunger does not breed reform;
it breeds madness and all the ugly
distempers that make an ordered
life impossible. If excuses should
occur, if disorder should for a
time raise its head, a sober second
thought will follow and a day of
constructive action, if we help and
not hinder"

 Right to Charge 10 Cent Rate.

Boston, Dec. 13.-Acting upon the petition of the Bay State Railway company, which operates a trolley system in Is cities and 38 towns in eastern Massachusetts, the Public Service Commission in a report made public today denies the company the right to charge g. flat fare of ten cents in cities.
 Instead the commission recom- mends that for trial period of two months the railway establish a unit fare of seven cents on city lines, the fares on suburban lines to be 2 1-2 cents per mile as required by the company.
