repairs for that length of time.
The commissioners now propose
to appoint a committee of abstract
ors and real estate men and book
keepers to estimate the cost of re-
storing the records. 1t is said that
this will cost about $250,000 in the
office of the register of deeds alone.
Until an estimate has been agreed
on by all these committees the
county commissioners cannot issue
the bonds or advertise for con-
tractors. And until that is done the
work Of rebuilding the court house
and restoring the records must be
delayed.
County commissioners say they
cannot tell when they will be ready
to go ahead with the work.

The committee also made rec

AT THE
THEATE Frs

COCIETY night attendance at
- the Orpheum was extremely
~ heavy, and greatly relished the
Welcome Home Song R\vue," with
Gus Edwards at the head IF his own
company as the stellar attraction.
Molly Mcintyre, in the one-act Irish
romantic playlet, "The Love Chase"
evoked hearty appreciation Lydia
Barry, singing coincidence, proved
exceptionally entertaining. One of
the hits of the bill is the most skillful
juggler who has ever appeared at
the Orpheum. He is Royal Gas
coignes, the man with the double
somersaulting dog. Another pro-
nounced success is the comedy skit,
Midtown Vaudeville" humorously
presented by Blanche and Jimmy
Creighton.
Francis x. Bushman and Beverly
Bayne, themselves, wind up their
short but interesting stay at the
Boyd with matinee and evening
performance today, presenting ''The
Master Thief a real melodrama of
the modern type. These popular
movie stars are just as good in the
spoken drama, and are delighting a
host of friends with the quality Of
their work. They have remarka-
bly, strong company in support, and
the play is lavishly mounted.
One of the largest items that such
producers of musical extravaganzas,
as purveyors of high-class girl
shows have to contend with is the
constant renewal of wardrobe. "Oh
Baby" which the Marcus show is
presenting at the Brandeis repre-
sents an original outlay of $4,000
for costumes alone But. that is not
the worst of it. The average life Of
a stage costume such as those worn
in ooh Baby" is less than eight
weeks. Silks and satns don't stand
the wear. to say nothing Of crepes
and chifons. But the dear public
wouldn't stand for more durable and
less expensive materials. The, folks
out in the orchestra chairs are too
wise nowadays, so Marcus will have
to keep right on and hope that the
silk worms don't go on strike.
Shopping in the Orient is a Tilt
ing song of brightness splendidly
sung, by Ethel Lawrence and Rich
ard Bosch in the captivating produc-
ton of Chin Chin" which comes
to the Brandeis for three perform
ances, two nights and matinee,
starting next Friday evening.
Chauncey Olcott in an Erlanger
production. of "Macushla" comes to
the Brandeis next week, starting
Sunday. Mr.. Olcott brings four new
songs to feature the sweetly humor-
Gus and pathetic Irish play. The
new songs will be a delight to Mr..
Olcott's followers, That's How the
River Shannon Flows" gripping the
hearts of the audience like Mother
Machree."
A musical comedy of the abbre-
waited type, That's Going Some"
is the stellar attraction at the En-
press theater. The six girls IN the
chorus are exceedingly pretty and
their singing and dancing is most
pleasing: Adelaide Carpenter, pin
cipal lady in the cast, has a charm
ing soprano voice.
The attraction at the Gayety this
week is Joe Hurtig's big Burlesque
Wonder Show" with George P.
Murphy and Primrose Seamon real
leaders of all organizations of this
kind. The five or six big star special
ties which are introduced through
the comedy, alone would repay one
for the price of admission paid.

Is II years and II per cent of the
girls in the home during last year
were mentally defective. Miss Biggs
emphasized h fact that no other in
with a baby and in as much as only
four Of the young mothers were able
to be reinstated in their homes by the
officials of the home last year, figures
show that there remains a large num-
Der of girls and babies to be cared
for.
Miss Biggs has been loaned" to
North Dakota for several weeks and
during this time she expects to tour
the state in the interests of her work.
Tho wornen of North Dakota have al
