RECORD CROWDS SEE NAz1MovA.
Thousands of Kenoshans C1amor for
s'Out of the Fog at the
New Majestic.

The tragedy of child who WASH It
wanted and a. woman who WASH It loved
was wildly presented at the New Ma
jestic Theatre on Monday afternoon
and evening when record crowds saw
ALA Nazimova play a dual role in her
latest release "Out Of the Fog
The picture gave the peerless one"
every opportunity to show the wonder
full mastery Of moods which has made
her so popular with a f1m-loving public
AS a sweetheart betrayed by her lover
she interpreted despair with rare grace
and artistry; as a child, trying to find
happiness in a life clouded by prejudice
and fanaticism, she was equally con-
vincing, and again as a woman, sud
denly catching the CLEAN of a light in
the fog, she displayed unusual inter
pretative power.
The story presents salacious situa-
tions unsalaciously handled. It's scenes
are suggestive, but never sensational
and never for moment questionable.
The attendants at Mondays shows were
agreed on its excellence, many assert
ing it to be the best film ever ex-
hibited in Kenosha.

FIFTY SIX YEARS AGO.
Mr.. and Mrs. William Wells Celebrate
! Notable Wedding Anniversary at
Eagle Street Home. 4,

Fifty six years ago today Mr.. and
Mrs William Wells were married about
three miles away from Kenosha on the
old Milwaukee Road and today they
celebrated with their friends the an
niversary Of that wedding. A feature
of the occasion was the fact that sew
eral of the guests at the wedding more
than a half a century ago were the
guests of the bride and groom to-
day at the anniversary dinner at the
home at liza Eagle street today. One
of these John Strock, of Waukegan, a
brother of Mrs. Wells, was the best
man at the wedding in 1868.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wells have lived prac-
tically all of the ffty-six years in Ke-
snosha and they were at home to many
of their friends this afternoon at an
informal reception. After an enjoy
able afternoon in which "reminiscences
of the past played large part, the
guests departed wishing Mr.. and Mrs.
Wells many happy returns of the an
niversary.

PLAY PLEAsEs PATRIOTS.
I" Friendly Enemies Presented at the
Rhode Scores Triumph With Its
wit, Pathos and Patriotism.

Wit, Pathos and Patriotism.
J. j, Rhode performed distinct
service for patriotism and the arts
when he presented Friendly Enemies =
at the Rhode Opera House on Monday
evening. A better or more inspiring
show was never seen in Kenosha.
The outstanding feature of the per-
Torrance outside of its unusual artistry
in the creation Of atmosphere and the
Interpretation Of character, was the fact
that the audience en- masse ran out Of
handkerchiefs in the middle of the Sec
when smiles weren't chasing rainbows
in the wake of the superb humor of
| Harry Mason as g Karl Pfeiffero or
Dave Lewis as s<Henry Block,
The play as play went the cloud
one better-its lining was golden.
Sparkling speeches carried now pathos
so tender as to be irresistible and again
wit so brilliant as to compel laughter
on the very heels Of tears.
The story Of Friendly Enemies y has
already become classic among those
who follow either the plays or their re-
| views in magazines. Karl Pfeiffer and
Henry Block, German-Americans and
lifelong friends, become enemies on the
| question of American participation in
the world-War The affair of honor is
not exactly serious until Karl's son, the
fance Of Henry's daughter, decides to
enlist in the American army and with
out his father s knowledge wins a COM
mission at the training school. The old
man who cannot understand why "his
boy would want to kill his cousins =
and who believes that Germany can do
no wrong, sets out to prevent his son s
embarkation for France and in the pro-
cess becomes involved in a German spy
| plot of large proportions.
The climax comes when Billy So
ship is destroyed by al explosion in the
hold, the work of German sympathizers
and agents, and the old man sees that
his "super-men = are Huns and "mpr-
derers," fighting not to "help people
but to hurt them-to kill them
The conversion is complete. "Karl'
allies himself with Henry to "'get0
the whole spy-ring in the United States
and to hurl his once-beloved Kaiser
from the throne of a fallen fatherland.
Wilhelm now Billy" to his
father, his bride, and everyone else
he WASH t killed at all; they never are
in plays-comes back just in time to
capture canton Miller,' the arch
conspirator, kiss his little war-wifc,
and teach his pro-American father
and mother to sing "My Country
tbs of Thee, when the curtain falls
on the show.
Every role was well taken by the
company which appeared at the Rhode
on Monday evening. Especially good
were Harry Mason and Dave Lewis as
the friendly enemies, and Miss Raye
Dean as the little war bride proud of
the fact that her Billy" had given
his life for his country.

WELCOME GUILD
OF ST. BARNABAS
Score of Kenosha Nurses
Join New Order At Meet
ing At Guild Hall
On Monday.
ADOPT RULE OF LIFE
Nurses Praise Principles Advanced by
New Guild Enjoyable Social Hour
Follows Organization Meeting Of
the Guild.

A score of KenoSha nurses welcomed
the organization of the Kenosha branch
of the Guild of st. Barnabas on Mon
day afternoon at the meeting at Guild
Hall by becoming charter members of
the new organization. Six associate
members were also present and helped
in completing the organization of the
order which has as its purpose the pro-
viding of spiritual and social life for
the nurses who may be in this city
and to follow them wherever they
may be called in their work of minis
tering to the sick.
The work of organization was very
brief. The members heard the reading
of the nrule of life' prescribed by the
society and sanctioned the principles
set forth in the constitution. Tho Ke-
nosha Guild will have the Rev. G. E.
Mccoy as the chaplain of the local
guild and Mrs. Walter j. Cavanagh as
secretary. Committees viii be appoint
ed soon to care for the varied activi-
ties of the guild in connection with the
life of the nurses.
The social actipity of the guild be-
gan at once, for following the business
meeting, the nurses were guests at an
informal tea given by the associate
members Of the guild. The committee
on entertainment consisting Of Mrs.
Alexander Ebert and Mrs. Earl McMul-
len, had provided for a pleasant after
noon at the close of which a delightful
luncheon was served. Tho meeting
proved a success in every way and
did much to increase the enthusiasm
which has greeted the organization
of the guild.
The meetings of the guild VIII be
held regularly on the second Monday
of the month but in addition to this
it is the plan of the members TO ar
range social meetings to promote the
spirit Of friendship among the mem
bers Of the organization and to well
come any visiting members of the guild
who may be in Kenosha temporarily.
Guilrs of the order have been estab-
lished in many cities of the United
States and the badge of the society
has come to be one we'll known among
the nurses of America.

LAY PLANS FOR
SPRING Recital
Community Chorus VIII
Meet Tonight To Prepare
For An Ultra Concert
in Late April.
Old MELODIES And new
Program VIII Present Songs of the
South, and Wartime Favorites as
Well as Classics By Beethoven
and Eichberg.

The Community Chorus, singing I'm.
der the direction of w. Wesley Lavio-
lette, will inaugurate the spring musical
season with -Time-M Melodies
Concert" to be given in Kenosha
sometime in late April Plans for the
affair viii be tentatively made at the
weekly rehearsal to, be held at the
Army and Navy Club this evening.
The recital will be something dis
tinctive in the way of musical functions
inasmuch as it will present the favor
tie songs of the world-war, both popu-
lar and classical, sung under the direc-
tion of an ex-service man by soldiers,
sailors, and marines in company with
certain ones of the folks they left be-
hind them. An added feature of the
concert will be southern melodies of the
sort that have made Dixie unsteady
famous not only in the United States
but throughout the world.
A touch of somewhat more artistic
tone will be given to the affair by the
rendition of Beethoven s ''The Heavens
are Telling" from "The Creation
and of Eichberg's more modern classic
:" To Thee, 0 Country"
We plan to make the concert hold
something for everyone, Mr.. La
violette remarked when interviewed
this morning. "There will be rousing
patriotic songs reminiscent of the war
and all it meant to folks, grooming
songs of the south with their wild ex-
otto coloring, and the more sedate but
equally appealing harmonies of chorale
and oTatorio. We went the recital to
be popular but not 'jazzy'. The Chorus
has always stood for all that is good
in music and it will try to present that
lots of it-for its first formal con-
cert in late April.
Although the recital will be "its
first formal concerto it will not repre-
sent the first public appearance of the
new Community Chorus. The aggrega-
ton distinguished itself in the recent
WORCESTERSHIRE at the Armory,
which according becomes rich proph-
ecy of the artistry to be expected in
the ar-TimeMelodies Concerto.

MAsoNs START TEMPLE.
Kenosha Lodge Starts Plans for ERE
building of Temple" in City
in Near Future.

One hundred members of the Keno
sha Lodge Of Masons were present
Monday evening at the meeting Of the
lodge in the Masonic Temple when
plans were discussed for the erection Of
a new Masonic Temple in Kenosh
sometime in the near future. The pro
ject has not yet taken definite form
but the enthsuiasm which dominated
the meeting showed that it was the be-
ginning of new home for the Kenosha
Lodge.
The Masons have several plans in
mind and have settled on only the idea
that the present Masonic Temple is not
large enough to meet the needs of the
growing Kenosha order A motion was
passed at the Monday meeting calling
for committee to be appointed,
which shall formulate definite plans
for the new home which the Masons
expect to build within short time.
While the new building is still in
definite enough that it is not possible
to describe what it will be like it was
definitely decided that the new struc-
ture whether built on the present site
occupied by the Masonic Temple or on
some other would be strictly Masonic
Temple. No action was taken on the
reported offer made for the site by
the Kenosha Lodge of Odd Fellows in
asmuch as the formal offer has not yet
been made to the Masonic Building
Association.
