FIVE VAUDEVILLE ACTS

ON BILL AT FOX'S
 The five acts of vaudeville at Fox's the first half of the week are all en- tertaining numbers. Joe Sheftal 6 Company presents a lively act. It is a 10 member team of colored enter tainers with songs, dances and comic dialogue. Barnes and Harris present a piano and vocal number, feturing When I Lost You, Mother O'Mine." These men were co-partners in writ ing this song. ooh Gee, Say Geo. and a Hebrew character song, I'm In Love" are other numbers of theirs that go we'll. Renoma is a young woman, evidently with a rubber spine. judging from her contortions. She is also juggler. Miss Mae Russell has her best offering being That Irish Mother of Mine." Lorimer and Car breyz offer a distinct novelty. They have a rapid fire selection of songs and jokes, all of which are given in accompaniment to their eccentric dancing. They dance up and down stairs, ladders, etc, keeping time to the jazz of the orchestra.
 Ever hear of a man, disappointed in love who tried to persuade a gunman to kill him? Owen Moore, in 'The Poor Simp," the feature picture at Fox's, tries this and has a terrible time, first trying to get bumped off, and then trying not. The cause of the trouble is when, on receipt of bad news, he deodes life isn't worth ,liv- ing. A gangster is hired to saccom- plish his demise but in 8 manner un- known to him. The thug agrees then comes the good news that the bad news not really bad news but is good news. Moore tries to, head off the gunmen but with no luck at all until a series of laugh-provoking in- cidents solve the delema and reunites the hero with his sweetheart. Other reels are the bi-weekly Penrod story, 8 Chester Outing Trayelogue, Episode Six of Fantomas and the Fox News.
 Beginning Thursday afternoon the vaudeville will have six big acts and the feature picture will be versatile George Walsh n Number IT,"

OF 1921" COMEDY
 AT THE BYCEUM THEATER-

Supported by Miss Debbie Thornton. the prima donna, who was absent last week because of death in her family. Hoyt's company is putting on a bet ter bill this wesck. Varieties of 1921" is the musical comedy which will be seen tonight and tomorrow, and Greenwich Village FoIlies'' will be presented the second half of the week.
 A photoplay unusual enough to lift 1t above the average screen offering and thrilling enough to keep theater- goers interested through every foot of the picture has been produced by Uni- versal in Harry Carey's latest starring vehicle, Bullet Proof.' This picture is being shown the first half of this week.
 The plot centers about Pierre, studying for the priesthood. He leaves the church and forgets his early re- ligfous training when he learns that his father has been killed by a notor- ious gunman. He pledges himself to avenge his parent
 On a mountainside, at night, Pierre comes upon a girl held fast by a land slide. While he is trying to save her, the huge mass of dirt and rocks movec farther down the slope burying the wo completely.
 Alice Lake, who was seen last week I ''The Misfit Wife" comes to the lyceum the second half of the week n Should a Woman TeI?" In no way a problem or propaganda play, this picture presents the emotions in a woman's heart when torn between her desire for truth and her fear of the loss of the man she loves more than life itself.

45 MIN. FROM BROADWAY
 AT THE PALACE

Charles Rays verson of Forty Five Minutes From Broadway the George M. Conan classic which he has adapted to the screen, in being kept close to the original form which had such tremendous success during the years of its stage vogue. The wide popularity of the original Conan play and the stars recognition of its value in the form known to a vast pub lie. has convinced its producers that the biggest success would attend screen version following closely the lines of the popular stage piece. "For- ty-F'ive Minutes From Broadway" is the first of the stars new productions to be presented by Arthur S. Kane for First National releasV. It will be sh>wn at the Palace Tuesday and Wednesday.
 The sponsors of MT. Rays initial picture stressed the point that a too greatly altered photoplay adaptation of the Conan piece was contrary to the country wide value of this we'll known comedy-drama.
 The Keith vaudeville bill for the first half of the week features that classical musical comedy, Nearly a Prince" with big clever cast and special scenery galore. Other acts in- clude Jarrows, the man with the lemon;~ Brown and Taylor in new songs and talk; and Ross and Foss in a pleasing musical offering.

Madge and I can divide our time be- tween Marvin and her with trips, on the side in search of homes for both of us"
 For q tense second wondered whether her ruse would succeed. But we were not long left in doubt. Dicky rose. walked over to Lillfan's chair. pulled her to her feet, and gave her a mighty hug and a smacking kiss that almost could have been heard in the street.
 You're always the little life-saver. Lil, I'll tell the worl6!" he excaimed. I'm not going to stand on any cere- mony in accepting your plan. And I needn't ask Madge how she'd like it. I have vivid recollections of our last moving from the Brennan place, and think her idea of a perfect moving day would be with me about twenty miles awSy. headed West. By the way, won't that let me out of going down to Marvin tomorrow? You can attend to things can't you, Heart of my-life ?"- he swept mo a bow-"and really ought to get to the studio"
 I had hard work to conceal my re- lief and exultation at his proposal. even aa I demure1y assented to it. If he could dismiss the trip to Marvin that carelessly he was not as interest ed in seeing Edith Fairfax again as feared.

BY CORA MOORE
New York's Fashion Authority.

In a new collection of frocks espec- ially designed by Mood for Pair Beach there are two harem skir frocks. As Mood is always ahead O Mode this may be taken to indicate that harem effects are likely to be a vogue for some time. But the idea is that some new feature must be intro duced to carry it.
 Rows of fringe, from an inch to four inches deep, winding spirally around a harem skirt, from the lowest one which falls below the hem. up the whole length or some part of 1t. is one of the new notifications. and il- frustrated is another.
 Here a flesh-colored chiffon with oval-shaped motifs embroidered in beads is used with graduated lace founces let in in a double row down either side.
 In still another harem skirt a very full jabot of exquisite lace was intro duced in similar fashion, each scallop of the lace dangling a small pearl bead.

Four Jacks and Queen" a splendid male quartet and a real queen of song and beauty.

 MO thoughtful mother with children IN in the house will risk being without a good, reliable laxative. It will save many a serious illness, many a doctors visit.
 When the baby cries and is fretful, when the boy has no appetite and won't play, when the girl is istless and fever ish, when there are complaints of headaches and colds, the mother can suspect constipation. Give Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin in the small dose prescribed on the bottle, when you put the child to bed, and with morning the ailment will have disappeared,
 Dr.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a popular compound of Egyptian Senna and other simple laxative herbs with pepsin and dpleasant-tAsting aromatics. It acts gently and mildly, and children take it without objection. A sixty-cent bottle is enough to last an average fam fly many months. The ingredients are endorsed in the U. s. Pharmacopoeia, and last year American mothers bought over eight million bottles of Dr.. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin from druggists. It is the largest selling liquid laxative in the world, and few cautious families are ever without it.

Clean I'm Weed Piles Now

Many writer's in farm papers, as
well as newspapers, are predicting
heavy swarm of bugs during the
coming summer, all because of the
extremely mild winter. This is un-
questionably true, and unless we
get few days of something like real
winter weather there is every indica-
tion that there will be great plen-
ty of these pests on deck next sum-
mer. There is one way in which
people generally may help conditions
materially, and that is through burn
ing the piles of weeds which exist,
and under which a very large per-
centage of the bugs which survive
the winter are hidden. Not in the
city alone, but over the country in
general, much may be accomplished
through the use of little time right
now in burning as many as possible
of these weed piles, as well as other
piles of rubbish. Old straw stacks
which are beyond use should be burn
ed, and the farmer who cleans up his
farm by these little fires at this time
of the year will find himself well re-
paid-unless his neighbors cannot be
prevailed upon to follow suit.

Old Ok Yoke Farm

While workmen were cutting
brush and trimming out the hedge
row around the forty acre farm near
jeff Godfrey's, now owned by
Judge, Z. B. Lapham, within ten
minutes walk from the city limits,
buried in the leaves and brush they
found an old OK yoke which is un-
doubtedly from sixty to seventy-five
years old. The yoke is a large one,
in a good state of preservation and
very likely, was used by early set
tiers in the old OK team days break
ing new ground and hauling logs.
The old relic of bygone days was
found near the Ellis farm and it is
thought that it might have been the
property, one time, of uncle Lewis
Ellis, Hiram Belding or some of their
boys who drove the oxen. Mr.. lap
ham says If he does not sell the for
ty, he intends building "shack" out
there, weave the old yoke into its
construction and name the place
"Old Ok Yoke Farm.

ROvIDES PLACE FOR
INDOOR BASE BALL

"Where there's a will there's a
way" thought A. c. Loyer, president
and general manager of the Belding
Basket Co. when he realized that the
boys of the city had no suitable
place wherein they could play any
of the indoor winter games and so
without soliciting aid or subscription
in any way Mr.. Loyer proceeded to
provide place where the boys of
the Baptist church Sunday school at
least, could gather to play indoor
games, such as base ball, etc.
Mr.. Loyer has fixed the second
floor of the old canvas factory up by
clearing it out, screening the. win
dows on the inside and making other
necessary changes so that at present
it is an ideal place for the purpose
intended and the boys who are going
to be privileged to play there. The
only restraining order is that rough
house tactics will not be condoned
and the person who is acting as the
chaperone must be looked to as au-
thority. :.
And one thing more. We don't
wish to tell everybody but while Mr..
Lover fixed that room up for the
boys of the Baptist Sunday school,
we're willing to wager that he will
be willing to let other youngsters use
the place, for playing also. Just ask
and see.

START FARM AND
ORCHARD DEPARTM ENT

With this issue the Banner News
reopens its Farm and Orchard de-
partment as it has not been running
for some time~ and when last in the
paper was composed of material
which came from reliable sources,
yet little too far away from home
to be of great benefit to Belding and
Ionia county readers.
Commencing with this issue, how
ever, Henry j. Wheater, agricultural
instructor in the local schools will
conduct this department and it will
be under his personal supervision
every week. Mr.. Wheater wants it
understood, however that he does
not set himself up as a know-it-all
but that If the farmers in this vici-
nifty will assist him, by way of of
fering suggestions, criticizms r
questions, great deal of good can
be accomplished. Mr.. Wheater has
made splendid success of his ag-
ricultural class in the local school
and we are of the opinion that he
can do a lot of good for the farmers
hereabout.
His first subject is the proper
trimming and time for trimming of
grape vines.
