.nndnight GamboIsr-Ditmas.

Local devotees OF the silent drama
will be given the opportunity of see
ing the beautiful Marie Doro today
at the Ditmas Theatre in her latest
photoplay production, Midnight
Gambols.
In this picture Mias Doro Is given
the opportunity which so many of
her sisters on the stage and screen
have long yearned for. for in this
picture Miss Doro plays the part Of
a Girl who. very much like the
famous DR.. Jekyll,. has two natures.
II is needless to say that the young
lady gifted, or as some might say
cursed, with this power of being able
to live two lives, Is led into some
very thrilling situations and in the
end is saved from the very serious
situation through the love and strong
arm Of the young man to whom she
is engaged.
The picture IL very beautifully
mounted and one OF the special fea-
.tui es of the production is the beauti-
full gowns which are worn through
out by Miss Doro. Midnight Gambols
VIII hold a place of honor on the
screen of Ditmas Theatre.

Edison, because the ~xylophone can not be
made to initiate any other instrument, so as
to deceive its hearers.
Signor Friscoe's act is not an Edison enter
prise. He has simply been clever enough
to use the New Edison for what it is worth.
Why don't you?
PRICES
The price Of the New Edison has increased
less than l5% since 1914. This includes
the War Tax.
Mr.. Edison has STAYED off price advances
by personally absorbing more than half of
the increased cost of manufacture.
Because of the exceptionally high quality
OF materials and workmanship demanded
by the Edison Laboratories, and the con-
tinued scarcity of both, it may be necessary
to advance prices. But rest assured that
this will not occur, unless Mr.. Edison is :
forced to it.

The NEW EDISON
1.-THE monograph NTH a Soul"

You've read how the New Edison has proved
its perfect realism. Four thousand tests have
been given, in which more than so different
artists compared their art with it's Re-
CREATION by the New Edison. Leading
newspapers conceded that there was no diff
ference between the two.
Has any one suggested to you that these
comparison tests are "faked"- that the
artist initiates the New Edison
Signor Friscoe's performance makes such an
assertion positively ridiculous. Every week,
20,000 people see his hammers ripple over
the xylophone keys. Suddenly he holds them
aloft-still.
The ripping music continues.
Slowly, the gorgeous curtains of the back
drop part. The audience gasps. The New
Edison stands revealed. It has taken up
,Signor Friscoe's performance, and is now
RE-CREArrNG it alone. The effect of this
extraordinary magic can rest upon only one
fact: No one can distinguish any difference
between Signor Friscoe's performance and
its RE-CREArIoS by the New Edison. Signor
Friscoe could not possibly initiate the New

WOMEN WORK;

Man Is Becoming the Drone of the

United Press Leased Wire Service ]
CHICAGO, July 17-"What will be
come of mere man is question only
the gods can determine" John M.
Glenn, secretary of the Illinois Manu-
facturers' association, said today. He
was studying statistics showing the
increasing numbers Of women en-
ployed in industrial plants.
Man is becoming the drone of the
hive" he said. He is seen idle in
the market place when he ought to
be at work. He is seen at the matt.
nee and moving picture theater He
is seen on the golf links the diamond
and the bleachers, and is visible in
large numbers in every place where
sport and pleasure are dominant.
Contemplate what would happen if
womarf were to retire from industry
and return to the home. Fifty years
ago she had no place in business. She
made her first appearance in the re-
tail mercantile establishment and
has edged along until she practically
dominates that institution. On every
hand demands are for more women,
and the supply cannot be met
women will continue to take a
greater part in industry" Glenn pre-
dicted "She has shown she is capable
of doing the work, and she has quail.
fications the man does not possess.
Just now factories in which the
workers are women are better Off
than those run by men. Woman
doesn't seem to have the aptitude for
striking.
''The women who appeared before
the platform committees of the two
major parties this year knew what
they wanted and went after it more
capably than the men did. The in.
fluence of women at the conventions
was another indication of the grow
ing importance of women outside the
home.

WASHINGTON, July 17.-Boston Is

Federal Prohibition Commissioner
Kramer said today.
! New York is the wettest, according
to Kramer. at
"Prboably there are 700 places in
New York where the prohibition law
is being violated" said Kramer. This
shows big success for the prob ibi-

have 1900 saloons. We're doing our

pleased with prohibition enforcement
results so far.
II do not deny" he said, that the
law is being violated in very many
localities, especially in large cities
like New York and Chicago. This
was perhaps to have been expected.
"There has been big change in
the attitude toward prohibition though
since the supreme court approved its
constitutionality about a month ago.
Our agents report that more en-
thusiasm is displayed by local police
and prosecutors in cooperating with
federal officials in enforcement of

hospitals have been able to close for
