WHISTLY TUNES,
PRETTY CIRLIES
IN COME ALONG

The first big musical comedy of
the season comes along to the stage
of the Opera House when Come
Along" which has been booked for
Thursday, October 16, is to be seen
and will be the treat of the season.
Direct from a successful stay at
the Nora Bayes theatre, New York,
the organization which comprises
thirty-fve people, carries its own
special scenery, electrical effects, and
costumes that are the latest Broad
way creations and when worn by the
beauty chorus form the daintiest and
prettiest picture imaginable. The
prima donna of the company is a
Southern girl, Miss Margaret Rad
cliffe Gooch, who has won her way to
almost stellar position and W hose
pleasing voice and handsome gowns
are the cause of envy and admiration
among the audience where Come
Along has been presented.
The book is by Bide Dudley, the
humorist of the New York Evening
World and the critics of Broadway
haye called it sparkling with humor
and new departure in musical COM
edy." The music is the whistlea-
BILE sort and fingers after you leave
the theatre, while the cast which are
entrusted with the various roles are
all artists whose talents have within
the past few weeks appealed most ia
vorably to Richmond, Columbia, Au-
gusta, Greensboro, Raleigh and other
audiences, and whose vocal ability
and clever mirth provoking capabili-
ties stamp them as able support for
Miss Gooch.
A musical show without snappy,
good-looking, likeable chorus is like
coffee without sugar and to say that
the Come Along Beauty Chorus" is
the prettiest and best dancing chorus
touring the Southland this season,
is by no means an exaggeration and
Americas is sure to agree that they
are "likeable and loveable," when
they display the dainty "Ann Pen
nington" costumes and watt their
captivating smiles over the foqtlights.

an idea of what is in store from a

MIDWAY affair
TO SHOW CLEAN
FEATURES ONLY

s'There is one feature of the Sum-
ter county fair on which l want to
assure the mothers and fathers of the
community" said Joseph Perkins
Yesterday, "and that is as to the mid
way. | have been assured by Mr..
Campbell, owner of the H. W. Camp
bell shows, which will furnish the
midway attractions, that there will
not be a single Objectionable feature
in all of the many exhibitions on the
grounds. Nor will there be any
gambling devices. Everything will be
clean and moral, l have been assured,
and Mr.. Campbell is personally in
charge of the shows and will be able
to see that his promise is made good.
"There will be only one game of
chance which is an amusement
scheme pure and simple, and that
will be the merchandise wheel, at
every turn of which somebody gets
the package of chocolates or other
prize, the retail price of which is the
amount of money paid in by the num-
Der of holders.
"There will be several free attrac-
ton features in connection with the
midway, and the whole, | am sure,
will be found in no way Objectionable
to any"

WHILE clubwomen all over the
" country are holding meetings to
devise ways and means to lower the
high cost of living, here's an oppor-
tunity to do little "profiteering" on
our own accouunt-namely to ac-
quire this charming silk underslip,
which in a shop would be priced at
at least $40, for-almost nothing!
That is, if you happen to possess a
silk dress which can no longer be
disguised into any of the prevailing
fashions.

this slip was a pink crepe meteor
evining. dress. Taffeta ribbon was
the only new item bought, and this
is of a deeper shade of pink, ma
chine pleated, and forms the fes-
toon rows on the skirt, and trims
also the bodice. The clusters of
tiny rosebuds add an alluringly
dainty touch. The lowering of the
ribbon shoulder straps to the waist
line is original. Ready bought net
or Georgette frills may be substitute
ed for the pleated ribbon, or narrow
bands of point d'esprit net may be
inserted.

and Americas is fortunate in being
able to see an organization of the
size and class of "Come Along" here
next Thursday, and to miss seeing it
is to regret it. With this fact in
mind it is not out of the way to re-

that the sale will open on Tuesday

LODGE INCONSISTENT.

Senator Lodge, of Massachu-
setts, is inconsistent in his insist
ence that the senate be called to-
gether to advise with the preei-
dent on the League of Nations
plan. In his recent debate with
President Lowell of Harvard
University, he said;
He (the president) did not
lay it before the constitutional
body which is entitled 10 advise
him, but he does not call the SEN
ate together now to consider it.
If they want to know in Paris
what amendments were required
call together the constitutional
advisers Of the president and the
amendments will be drafted and
sent. "
In a debate in the senate in
1906, defending President Roose-
velt's foreign policy, and in par
ticular the sending Of represen-
tatives to the ALGERIAN confer
ence to settle the Moroccan ques-
tion, Senator Spooner Of Wiscon-
ism, one of the ablest republi- |
cans ever in that body, declared |
that from the foundation Of the !

If your child has a cold when diph-

THE BOND BAROMETER

Liberty bonds lately have been
more in demand and according
ly rising in market price The
gains are small but none the
less noticeable and significant.
The fact is a good omen not
only for the satisfaction Of 20 =
100000 or so of bond holders,
and for the success Of the forth
coming loan, but for business
condition in general.
Tf the business outlook were so
bad as some pessimists insist, the
bonds would go lower. If the
peace outlook were so bad as
some reports from Paris repre-
sent, they would go lower. If
there were a prospect OF other
big government loans following
the Victory loan, they would go
lower. If it seemed likely that
Bolsheyikism would sweep over
this country, or indeed over any
Of the important allied countries,
they would 90 lower.
Those war bonds are a fine
barometer. Their rise indicates
fair weather ahead for America |
and the world. 1t may still take
some months yet to clear, but |
as long as we have the assurance
we can wait cheerfully.
American bonds, at their low
est, have had the highest market
value Of any such securities in
the whole world. They have

any foreign war bonds, and bet
