BILL PRU|TT, WHO IS CARUSO 0F THE PLAINS, AT L0EW'S "Marcelle,' Musical Con- edy, Healthier for Last Half of Week-Bush-
 man and Bayne in
 Photoplay

There will be much to please everyone
 the first half of the coming week, for variety really describes the bill. 1 Curry and Graham, in their bit of
 Scotch and Irish, have a good treat with
 their original songs and dances. Every
 thing they do is new, and the rendering
 of the Highland fling is full of pep and
 ginger.
 1 Dupree and Dupree, who have just joined the Loew's forces, from a trip followed by an engagement with Barnum
 and Bailey. will present the latest thing

Pruitt has been east but about seven years, having been dis l covered by Address Dippel. the producer of famous operettas. He appears in the costume of the cowboy. duplicate of the one he wore when singing in his native town.
 Cleveland and Downey will offer cracking, sparkling and invigorating strains on the violin and banjo, with few songs.
 The photoplay is Madlaine Traverse in ''The Danger Zone" a strong social photo drama
 A musical comedy with a story is rare thing. and with real tunes is an other, but "Marcelle,' the headliner at the Bijou the last part of the coming week combines both. "Marcele' is the name of a charming little dancer, who is about to be forced into distasteful marriage, but the gentleman doesn't fancy the alliance either so they decide to run away. separately to be sure, and without ever having seen one another, they both arrive at the same place, and by trick of fate. with the assistance of Cupid's ally and the aid of their best friends, manage to tie knot with sur prising facility. All the plotting is done to the lit of melodious music, pretty dances and clever comedy. Joe Howard and Al Weymer have the principal parts.
 George and May LeFevre have a series of novelty and original dances. from the Hawaiian to the ballroom. Miss Le- fevre's speciality also runs to elaborate headgears and creations, including a rhinestone one costing several thousand dollars.
 Lee and Bennett are a pair from mu- sical comedy who offer the new song hits. parodies and dances.
 George A. Mack is a jovial comic the writer of all his own material, who will present brilliant melodies and his origi- nal stories.

HIS BRIDAL NIGHT" :" .JOLL|EST MUSICAL SHOW, COMES HERE
Margaret Mayo's Latest at Jefferson Theatre Friday and Saturday, With
 Matinee

One of the most attractive offerings of the current theatrical season, at the Jefferson Friday and Saturday nights, and Saturday matinee, will be the de-
 lightful musical farce, His Bridal Night from the pen of Margaret Mayo. Miss Mayo has contributed to the Ameri- can stage some of the greatest laughing successes of recent years. His Bridal Night is said to be even funnier than her well known Twin Beds" As the title suggests, there was plenty of op- portunity for risque lines and situations, yet Miss Mayo has skllfully avoided overstepping the bounds of good taste and propriety and assurance is given that there is nothing offensive in the action of the piece
 When first produced in New York at the Republic theatre, where it ran for several months, His Bridal Night made distinct hit as a straight farce For big measure this season, Frederick V.
 Bowers, the well known song writer has supplied a catchy musical score of about 15 numbers, and with a chorus of exceptionally pretty girls, it has been turned into one of the most success ful musical comedies LOW en tour The comedy is most amusing and what is rare in musical shows, there is a sus- tained and interesting plot throughout. It presents a case of mistaken identity. Two sisters, twins, who look so much alike that the bridegroom cannot tell the one he married from the newly ac- quired sister-in-law, a quarrel, honey moon begun with the wrong girl and the interference of Julie. a well mean ing aunt, who undertakes to bring the pair happily together, encountering con- siderable trouble in so doing, forms the basis of the story in His Bridal Night
 The company. it is claimed, is an ex- cellent one. John Roberts, who plays the bridegroom, is not only a splendid actor, but possesses voice of rare mu- sical worth which is heard to marked advantage in the numbers assigned to him. When I Settle Down With You," Sweet Bye and Bye" You're a Very Pretty, Very Witty Girlie'' and Come Along, Love, With Me- are few of the big song hits. Others prominent in the cast are the Sheridan sisters, who are really as much alike as the proverbial two peas; Harry Lillford a capital char acter who created the port of the butler; Ali Bruce Hazel Allen and Bertha Jul Ian. The scenic investiture is complete and elaborate.

A BIG GAME HUNT


of young men from Ellisport nave
spent their vacation IN the Olynp-
ic Mountains hunting big game.
They have always returned laden
with trophies-large deer aud bear
but never before did good for
tune attend them SO speedily as
this season.
The hunting party, consisting of
Duncan Newman, Claude Bibblns
and Dick Fuller, left on Saturday
noon, Sept. 9th, in Mr.. Newman 5
ear; took the North End ferry
across to Harper then on to sea-
beck, crossing Hood Canal by ferry
TO Brinnon. Here pack horses were
secured to carry the outfit inland
The final camp was pitched on
Sept. Both, and mere the boys wait
ed impatiently for the season TO
open.
There is an old and trite saying,
1t $ the early bird that catches
the worm, and surely these three
skillful nmrods profited by being
ON the ground early, before other
hunters arrived to fr!ghten and
alarm the deer.
BY daylight the cage, hunters
were of for the spn.s, and the first
day they brought home IA line buck.
The tc' uud day they came upon IA
herdo f deer, and sooner than
you can say Jack liobinson, i've
more bucks fell. The limi. was
reached-each man had his two -
and the other beauties that stood
on the ledge gazing at the hunters
III wonder, had to be left for some
other sportsmen.
The sport was over, and now the
real work had to begin. Packing
one hundred and fifty pounds on
one S back over the most rugged
country, often plowing through
snow knee deep, is not all fun, and
yet it is fun.
These three sturdy men made
three trips with their spoils down
to the point where the packers
were to meet them. There they had
to wait two whole days, for never
dreaming of such sudden good for
tune, they had told the packers not
TO come for them until Saturday.
Needless to say, however, that af-
ter such strenuous packing and
climbing about the days of waiting
were most welcome. The time was
spent around camp, and the men
lived on the fat of the land, for
they found small game and fish in
abundance. Even the cries of the
hungry wolves and cougars did
not dampen their ardor.
About twenty miles down the
trail telephone connection was
made with Vashon Island, and Mr..
+. w. Bibbins was notified to meet
the party at Brinnon with his car
on Tuesday and help transport the
900 pounds of venison home. At
5 100 p. M, Tuesday, the party left
Brinnon, drove all night via the
Olympic highway, and arrived in
Des Moines on Wednesday morn
ing, where they waited for the first
ferry to take them across.
Had the time OF our livesl" was
their greeting to the folks at home.
And the many friends with whom
the generous hunters shared their
game send their thanks for the de-
licious rarity, and echo back, =" 1t s
the best meat we ever tasted"
May success always attend the
hunting trips of these young
sportsmen.
Hiram Fuller and Frank Fuller,
who had made all arrangements to
go with this party, but We're
obliged to give it up on account of
Frank s accident, left on Saturday
last for the same hunting grounds.
May good luck be theirs also.

BAPTIST DRIVE
RALLIES in THIS
DISTRICT COMING

The All-Georgia Tour, in the in
terest of the Baptist rs Million cam
palgn, promises to be the most re-
markable schedule of speaking en-
gagements yet to be launched by the
Baptist of Georgia, in the big move
ment now on to raise seven and one
half million dollars in this state.
The tour is divided into two blocks.
The first half begins October % and
runs through October 81. The sec
ond part begins November 4 and
closes November Z. Americas and
this section are in the first block. A
night meeting is scheduled here Oc-
tober 20.
The tour covers every part of the
state. The railroad lines and the
auto highways of the state have been
followed in making out the tour.
The strongest speakers in the de-
nomination have gladly volunteered
their service in this tour and at every
occasion in the entire schedule the
campaign will be presented by a lead
ing minister or layman.
The plan calls for three meetings
every day by every group. The day
meetings will usually be held at
country churches with either dinner
on the ground or afternoon sessions.
Nearby churches will join in these
meetings, The night meetings will
usually be held at towns and the two
speakers will come together for the
night meetings where a mass meet
ing will be held.
The response from the Baptists in
every part of the state has been
hearty and it is estimated that
these meetings will be one of the
features of the campaign in this
state.
The speakers assigned to this ter
ritory are Rev. G. L. Yates and w.
H. Faust. The dates are:
Oct 28-Day meetings, Oglethorpe
and Marshallville; night, Monte
