Funniest Show of
Season at Gayety

SIMPSONS subjects hurrying from
all parts of the realm to attend the
annual fall festival arc assured
treat at the ,Gayety Meater, where
the Roseland Girls present, Before,
After and After That
Harry Coleman, undoubtedly the
most versatile comedian that ever
"trod the boards" of burlesque, and
Bert Lair satisfy every desire of
the. audience for comics. Coleman
in the role of dope fiend" does
not confine himself to the laughs. al
though his lines are full of them, but
teaches a moral lesson in the more
pathetic scenes. Lair gets but one
laugh in the show. 1t comes with
his first appearance and is still in
progress when the orchestra plays
the chaser"
Stella Ward as "Ruby Top" the
cabaret girl, is the star of the pro-
duction. She vies with the comics

acter singing speciality makes a dis
tinct hit. Stella Ward as Old Tay-
lor's daughter has the pep of the
days before July l.
Ben Hilbert, in the role of pro-
hibitionist, is supported by . quar-
tet, of beauties. Matte DeLece is
unquestionably one of the most
beautiful women in burlesque and
has voice that matches her beauty.
An Omaha girl makes her first ap-
pearance on the local stage and we'll
deserved the reception accorded her.
Miss Beatrice Darling (Dowlitg),
828 Georgia avenue, started in bur-
lesque two years ago and has rap
idly risen to one of the leading roles
with this company. Last year,
playing with the Million Dollar

MYTHICAL CAMP
 SQUAD SL|CHTS
 B|C TEN TEAMS

Walter Camps All American" foot pall team, published for the first time today is not unlike Camp mythical 'eams of years gone bye-it Is chosen with the eastern standard of football as thebasis for all selections.
 lt Is generally admitted by football critics. that the middle western teams pltyed brand of football far superior to the eastern elevens, yet on the camp team we find but one western player, Chick Harley of Ohio State.
 Harley is unquestionably deserving ol the position, ss his work through put the season was of sterling quality put there were others who at least ueserved places on the second or third elevens only to be totally ignored.
 Syracuse Beaten in West
 Syracuse, recognized as one of the most powerful elevens in the east, in- Vaded the west at the seasons end at time, mind you, when the team was playing its fastest game-and lost two games to teams admittedly far fin ierlor to a dozen teams in the middle west. Indiana, whose team was de- Ieated in every game against a Big Ten Schools, defeated the Syracuse squad 12 to 6, while Nebraska sent
  the customers down to a 8 to defeat Syracuse had previously defeated colgate. Colgate. until the Syracuse game, had the cleanest record of any eastern eleven, having won all of its games by safe maJorities, defeating tho West Virginia eleven, which jr turn had defeated Princeton.
 And here we find Camps basis fol selecting this All American" team because 1t defeated Princeton, it was recognized as one of the big teams ot me country. Then Center college ol kentucky came along and defeated west Virginia, with a result thaf camp looked over the list of players on the Center team and selected two or his mythical eleven. So much fol the east.
 But around Illinois. Ohio State ant Wisconsin, to say nothing of Mime sota' Iowa and Chicago-any team o-

which could probably have beaten the best in the east, judging from compar ative scores of intersectional games there must have been some pretty good players to develop such high class of football.
 Casey Over -Touted
 Take Casey of Harvard, for example, who Is selected by Camp on the first All-American eleven. What did he do all season7 He got a forward pass in the Yale game and ran IS yards to a touchdown and because he accom- plished this feat he was placed on this honor team. He didn't do any thing else of note throughout the sea- son; he seldom played; he was frail and easily sent to the side lines. True he was fast and a good field runner but there are hundreds of such players in the country.
 On the other hand, there Is Ralph | Fletcher of Illinois. or even Sternamar of the same team. Both played sen sational football throughout the sea son. Oss of Minnesota was anothe. backfield star who played hard, con- sistent football throughout the playing l schedule, but these players are ignored l because Casey made touchdown against Yale. And Yale had one ot the weakest elevens among the big schools of the east.
 Peculiar Basis for Selections On the second team we find Trimble of Princeton and Braden of Yale. Bra den made 57-yard kick from place ment in the Harvard game. He should have been on the first team because of this fact. However, Camps basi: for selections seems to be: Touchdown first eleven; field goal. second eleven
 As to Trimble, he at least performed in more than one game, and from re. ports Is far more deserving of a plac, on the first team than is Harvard.
 western critics who saw all of tn, | greatest ends of the year. Middle western critichs, who saw all of tn, biggest teams in action, were unani nous on this point, while IngwersoI of Illinois at tackle and Depler of Hi nois at guard were credited with beinl two of the most powerful linemen see; In action in the Big Ten in years. I this be the case-and it is admitted that the west played higher standart of football than the east-then, in jus tice to the west it would seem that second. or third player might be choseI for this first all l-star team.

more obvious than others but it Is never lacking. No act may be done, no matter in what absolute privacy which does not have it's effect on the world outside Our very thoughts help mould the destinies of the race. Think it over. It is a fact. The Public's Side is always there.
 So far, so good. Now we have Q square with three sides. But that's only triangle; we need a fourth. There is no fourth? Oh. vest, there is but you'd never guess it. It's so unique quite a novelty in fact. We're proud to have discovered it. It's Gods Side.
 When we say God we do not mean Catholic God, nor a Methodist God; nor do we necessarily imply any orthodox God at all. We merely mean that indefinable Something to which each man looks, conceiving Him as he individually may. to point his way to better things and square his efforts with the universe.
 Gods Side-how visibly absent in most of our deals-and yet. 80 neces- sary if we embrace the Square Deal as our rule of action. Let's pause to measure up thing or two. If God were let in on the deal would we hear of sabotage or profiteering? Would union labor fight for the betterment of their members alone, with no word for other workers? Would one man hoard unspendable wealth while helpless cripples beg? Would Church fight Church with clashing creeds while little children hunger? That deal you're planning now---is God in on it?
 The Square Deal: Your side and the other; Humanity's side and God S. Four sides square. Some day when we have used 1t long and faithfully its sides will gradually grow shorter and more short, until at last we have no sides at all and 1t will then be but point-the Point of Universal Ac- cord But that's long way off. while present facts confront us now. And for the present. let's disinter and vi- vify the real Square Deal.
