service was most impressive clos
ing of a conference which has been
marked by many stirring scenes and
by an earnest will to accomplish the
fulhllment of the vision given the
church.
Budget of Opportunity.
AT the New Era conference Mon
day AFTERNOON, with Rev. W. NJ.
Hamilton. Council Bluffs, presiding.
Rev, A. W. Halsey talked upon the
Budget of Opportunity" first going
into the purpose of the movement
by saying that it is simply real,
live, united plan upon the part Of
the l,631, 748 Presbyterian communi-
cants in the United States toward
the accomplishment of the task con
fronting the church as a result of
the world war. He explained that
it is the purpose Of the Presbyterians
to raise and spend $13,000000 during
the next year and around $75,0G0-
600 within the next five years for
the betterment of mankind and car
rying out Christian ideals.
OF the $l3,000,000 the goal for
this year, 100000 will be expended
on and for the relief of returning
soldiers and sailors who went to
war from Presbyterian homes. and
100000 for the relief of stricken
Protestant churches i'll the war
zone.
The campaign for raising the mil
lions of dollars will be inaugurated
during Marrh of the present year
and will be handled in accordance
with the plans being worked out
by the general assembly committee.
Tells of Italy.
Rev. Ernest Giampiccoli, moderat-
or of the Waldensian church of It
ally, inspeaking on New Era Recon-
struction in War Areas" told of the
devastation wrought in northern It
ally by reason of the war. He ex-
pressed gratitude to the American
people for what they had done in
aiding Italy.
Chicagoan Speaks.
Rev. Norman B. Barr, pastor of
the Olivet Presbyterian institute,
Chicago, expressed the opinion that
the church stands for progress ard
that the New Era movement is go
ing to be pushed to a successful con-
clusion and that with the Presby-
terians of the United States behind
it, it cannot fail. i.
Rev. Mr.. Barr was formerly a Ne
braska pastor and, in his address,
he paid glowing tribute to the peo-
pie of the state, expressing the opin-
ion that when the time comes for
raising the New Era budget, they
will not be found lacking in the
matter of contributing their dollars.
He expressed the opinion that
everywhere "the church is on the
job" and is going to accomplish its
aim.
Rev. Mr.. Barr secuted the idea
that there is any breaking down of
Christianity; instead, he insisted, it
is a breakup of "the cast iron pag-
anisnl social order of things" This, !
he said, is why the present moyeg
ment is called the New Era, and !
in this movement the church has
great hopes for the future of So
ciety, "f6r," he added, the people |
are beginning to feel that if the
church cannot save society, society |
is doomed"
Following the regular conference.
members Of the local presbyteries
met and took the preliminary steps |
for putting the New Era movement |
in motion in their respective dis
tricts.

AT THE
THEAT Frs

.HDWARD LOCKE'S comedy,
r. THE Climax" which the
- Messrs. Shubert produced at
the Comedy Theater, was the first
small cast drama ever produced in
this country Twelve years ago,
when Joe Weber first produced
this comedy, which is enacted only
by four characters. the entire theat-
rical world watched the venture with
keen interest So phenomenal was
the success Of THE Climax" that
ever since that time the tendency
has been TO minimize the casts as
much as possible, until we recently
had a case of the extreme, Under
Orders" now playing Messrs, Shu-
bert circuit, being enacted by only
two players. 1t is expected that in
the near future an attempt will be
made to successfully put over" a
drama enacted by one player.
The opium den scene in "The Man
Who Came Back" now on at the
Boyd, is one of the most complete
bits of realism ever shown on the
stage. 1t was not devised merely
from conjecture. but is copied liter
ally from a similar den that actually
exists. You can sec the Chinese at
tendant cooking the dope, manieh-
lating the 'yen-hok, singing his
scueaky tune, indifferent to the
noises made by his customers-the
whole giving a creepy feeling even
to the spectator. And it is here that
one of the most important episodes
of the drama is enacted. A special

Soon after this the engagement of Miss
Whitney and Tom Graydon was formally
announced. There was no Disgusting the
fact that the Whitneys did not like it, and
there were Tumors that they still hoped
to break on the match. No doubt antici-
pating this, the ladder again came into
play and the lovers really eloped.
Although Miss Whitney, then Mrs. Gray
don, was the potential heiress to five
million dollars, the displeasure of her
family cut her entirely of from any source
Of revenue. Young Mr.. Graydon football
hero as he was. took up the humble trade
OF cobbling, and mended and sold shoes
merrily in Cincinnati. Mrs. Graydon
missed an heiress's comforts. Finally,
Cupid was starved to death. Mrs Graydon
went back to the Coast, ostensibly to visit
her people. While there she secured a
divorce, alleging actual hunger
In the meantime Mr.. James G. Blaine
Jr., had married a beautiful Southern girl,
Miss Marie Nevins daughter of Colonel
Richard Nevins, Of Columbus, Ohio. Their
romance had been somewhat in the nature
OF an elopement also. Mr. Blaine was
extremely high spirited and adventurous.
If the Broadway Of that day had been like
the Broadway of just about yesterday. ne
would have been one of the commanding
figures. He liked to drive a hanson cab
up club entrances, even into them if he
could-much to the indignation of the
police and the amusement of others.
The lovely Southern girl found that her
mode or living and his were entirely in
compatible. When, upon the birth of their
son, James Blaine, 3rd, the father absented
himself for long time, she went out to
Sioux Falls and secured a divorce Later
she married the distinguished DR.. William
T. Bull Of New York, and found happiness.
Mr.. Blaine then promptly wooed Miss
Martha Hichborn, the daughter of Rear
Admiral and Mrs. Philip Hichborn, of
Washington. Their matrimonial career
was tumultuous.
In the meantime Mrs. Beryl Whitney
Graydon-nOt yet having met Mr.. Blaine
and he being wed-was wooed by Mr.. ].
Columbia Wheeler, of Baltimore and Gin
cinnat.
This was also tumultuous!
Mr.. Blaine's tumult was fast approach.
ing a climax. Miss Hichborn had been
known in Washington as "the Lavender
Belle" She was as high spirited as she
was beautiful, and one day when Mr..
Blaine walked into Martins restaurant in
New York, where she was sitting with an
old friend, and proceeded to try to break
tables and generally demolish the place
with the old friend, she rebelled.
Her divorce has gone down to history

rounds. such as the planting OF
trees, shrubs. roses or other flow
I ers, or replanting what is deemed
necessary, the making of new lawn
or the improvement OF the old one.
However, too often work Of this
kind Is neglected. Some times this
Is due to indifference and other times
to lack of proper knowledge as to
how to ccomplish the undertaking Of
certain improvements. There are
those to whom we have probably
talked to about making certain chan
ges in the planting, etc, who merely
say, "Yes. am thinking Of doing
that later on" Such persons are not
convinced to the fact that paintings
and other forms of identifying their
home grounds are necessary in Or
der to make even the most expensive
structure a home" But they con-
slider such improvements of second
airy Importance and only unnecess-
airy expense.
But fortunately there are Others
who relize the importance of such i'm
provements in order to make their
home home" and also that in add
itlon to the comfort attached to it
they are increasing the value of
their property.
Furthmore, II is problem well
worth consideration from another
standpoint. Attractive home surro-
findings exert very marked in
'fluence on the boys and girls by keep
ing up their interest in the home as
well as adding much to their content
ment and happiness.
In addition to inuucing the public
TO beautify their home surroundings
an effort shall be made to give adj
vice and assistance of such nature
as II most practical and suggestive.
In general, no set rules for landsca-
pc gardening con be recommended.
The main thing is to study the gem
'eral plan of the whole and make the
paintings. etc. harmonize as much as
possible with this. In planting sh-
rubs 1t Is well to group them along
the borderlines or In corners around
the foundation Of the building best
suited for them. In so doing II pre-
'ferable to planting irregularly rath-
.er than In straight lines. 1t is also
much more effective TO place the
highest growing bushes at the back.
A much more natural appearance is
effected IL different varieties are
planted together. since after all the
principal object is to mature nature.
Shrubs ana flower beds should
never be planted on the lawns for
various reasons; (1)It is aginst the
rule OF natural style in landscape
gardening, (2) IL the lawn is small
It is very inconvenient to NOW and
take care of properly. II 10 suggest
ed that the lawn be kept open How
ever, there may be few exceptions
to this rule. For instance, where
walk makes a sharp turn and con
sequontly corner in the lawn, 1t
may be well TO plant one or two more
bushes, or IL the lawn is large enough
an occasional lamn tree may be plant
cd TO advantage. But II is well to ,ay-
