Three Dancing Generations
Behind Toes of Kitty DOner

Kitty Doner is a dancer. one of the
very best the American stage has to
offer, and her sister, Rose, also is a
dancer, but as yet she has not
gained the reputation Kitty enjoys.
Then, there is a brother, Ted. and he,
too, is a dancer. Not one member OF
the family has followed any other
calling in three generations.
For several seasons Kitty was with
AL Jolson in his Winter garden pro-
auctions, and she always was given
recognition second to the inimitable
star himself.
Kitty Doner is a bit of radium,
pulsating, throbbing, a constantly
moving mass of energy, vitality, ami
nation and attractiveness. In her
work her smile plays as great part
as her feet. She is a genius of the
art of Terpsichore, She and her
sister and brother are offering "A
League of Song Steps" at the Or
pheum. While there may be some
differences of opinion regarding 9TH
er leagues, both baseball and nations,
there is absolutely no difference Of
opinion about Kitty, Rose and Ted

Of how young mans indiscretion came

in the case was nothing less than a

donors name, and in the possession of
the fascinating but mischievous widow

his bride are spending their honeymoon
The climax occurs in Mabeps bedroom

WHO'S LOONEY NOW.

Under the aboye caption Col. George Harvey max
es the following oaustic comment:
"THentythree years ago there was a woman
suffrage measure before the North Carolina legislature.
BY q substantial majority, 1t was referred TO the com
m;ttee On lunatic asylums.
"Ou the goth day Of August last, the Sorth Car
DINA legislature passed a bill providing machinery for
women voters in future elections. Not that the North
Carolina legislature has changed its mind on the wo-
man suffrage question. It hasn't. It voted heavily
against woman suffrage only a few days before 1t voted
TO create the necessary machinery for recording the
will OF the women voters at the polls.
North Carolina merely bows to the inevitable; that's
all. And with Characteristic North Carolina chivalry.
Il was one Of the bitterest of the antisufrage bitter
enders. Harry Hrier. who offered the bill comforting on
county authorities the power OF admitting women vo-
tiers TO these ballot box privileges which an amendment
to the constitution Of the United States now conf ers
upon them.
Thus the Old North State is able to read it's title
clear TO consistency on the one hand. and TO chivaIrous
courtesy on the other. There is. Of course, nothing
surprising in that. Il Is what might have been ex-
pected Of the old commonwealth. But there are still
certain questions remaining unanswered. For instance.
were the North Carolina legislators who voted to refer
a woman suffrage measure to the committee of lunattc
asyIums themselves looney,' or were the legislators
OF thirty-six states Iooney' when they voted ratif-
cation of the woman suffrage amendment to the fed
eral constitution?
And again. how far was this possible lunacy
Of the North Carolina legislature twenty-three years
ago then shared by the country at large? Here is an
interesting field for experts in mass psychopathic at
fictions."

BUYING MEAT.

There are strange sights visible these days IN the
marts OF trade. The other day we went to a meat shop
and asked for a small pot roast. The gentlenanly but
cher took q great shoulder OF beef from o hook, laid
IL on the block and hewed off a chunk about the size
of our two nsts, put It on the scales. wrapped 1t up and
handed II to Us. saying in the gentlest and most SYM
~pathizing voice, 80 cents" We thought of the good
old days when such a chunk could have been bought
for 80 cents. or course the genial butcher was not re-
sponsibie for the change. He would have sold il to us
for 25 cents If he could. But the II. c. I. paralyzed
him and we really had as much compassion for him as
he had for US. We are looking for the day when we
can buy a little chunk of beef for less money than we
have. but that day seems afar. In the meantime We
argue vithourseIf that we eat too much meat anyhow.
