HELEN HAYES FOR
ONE WEEK HERE
AT NATIONAL


Days." Filled With Life, Love,
and Laughter.
" HE very title Of the new and
beautiful four-act comedy by
Sidney Toler and Marion
Short. Golden Days." which IL
coming to the National for a weeks
engagement. beginning Christmas
Day. seems to tit 1t peculiarly to
the charms and talent of its star,
Miss Helen Hayes.
In Golden Days" Miss Hayes. an
Mary Ann, little tea-shop girl. is
the central figure Of q charming
and interesting story of a cross
section Of American life. 1t is a
tale Of love and lovers in the golden
days." when hearts were care-fres
and life was largely compact Of
sunshine and happy laughter. The
shadow-just a shadow-of the great
war fits across the picture and
touches the lives of many Of the
dear friends of Mary Ann.
With rare skin the authors Of
this unusual comedy make the audi
ence share the joy with which Mary
Ann, the little tea-shop girl, 10
transformed into a gorgeous butter
fly of fashion; discarding the husks OF
Bingham and calico for the full
blown plumage Of silks and satins
and ermine.
What a glorious company of loyal
friends Mary Ann has. She cap
tivates all hearts, even that Of the
gossipy village dressmaker and the
stolid Betsy" whose literal obey.
ing of all orders brings about many
funny complications.
George c. Taylor has seen to it
that his star. Helen Hayes, is set
in a beautiful frame, and is sur
rounded by a company of notable
players. In the big cast, which
comes direct from the Gaiety The
alter, New York, are Donald Gal
laher, Blanche Chapman, 10 Wal
lace, Jean May, Florence Earle,
Russell Medcraft, Alexander Clarke,
jr., Minna Gale Haynes, s. Iden
Thompson, Camille Forfeited, and
others.
Miss Helen Hayes is undoubtedly
the youngest star on the American
stage today. She is barely twenty,
yet already it is conceded that she
stands alone in her remarkable
ability to present the perfect type
Of the up-to-date, high-class Ameri-
can girl. Miss Hayes is a native of
this city.
AS a little child Miss Hayes made
a hit in amateur social entertain.

seen by Lew Fields, who was i'm
pressed by the child's artistry. and
he induced her parents to let her
join his company. She remained
with the comedian four years, play

1t was with John Drew that Helen
Hayes made her debut in straight
comedy. Sf0 was one. and the
most delightful one. of the children
in THE Prince Chap" 1t was here
that George c. Tyler first saw her
and engaged her to play the leading
part in "Pollyanna" on the Pacific

ADVENTURES OF

sY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
A MYSTERY.

A MYSTERY.
The queer looking creature that
Nancy and Nick had discovered looked
pretty sour when he heard that it was
his house and not himself that Nancy
admired.
"Humph!" he grunted. House!
What kind of a house do you think I'd
have if l didn't build it? I'm the prize
builder of the Land Of Wigglefins. I'm
Mr.. Nautilus"
"Oh, we've heard of YOU" said Nick.
isn't there a poem about you?"
Il believe So" answered Mr.. Nauti
lus, proudly.
But why are you building?" asked
Nancy, curiously. "Your house looks so
lovely and smooth and perfect. Isn't it
finished?"
IT'S never finished" answered Mr..
Nautilus. Every little while I build a
new room larger than the last one. And
then 1 lock the door of the old room
and live in the new room. My house is
made up of locked rooms"
Like Bluebeard's house" whispered
Nancy. And do you hide the key?"
"Throy it away" said Mr.. Nautilus
mysteriously. What is gone is gone.
What is closed is closed"
But what do you keep in your
locked rooms?" persisted the little girl
She was as curious as Blue Boards last
wife.
Its a secret" whispered the nauti-
lus, mysteriously.
Suddenly an idea occurred to both
Twins at the same instant. Could Mr.
Nautilus being hiding wicked Mr.. Her
NIT Grab? Was it possible?
The white pearly door into the old
room was not quite shut. Why was
Mr.. Nautilus hurrying so to close it?
Come, Nancy" whispered Nick
Lets go in and find out. what's there"
Before Mr. Nautilus could stop them
in they scampered, for, just as Cap'n
Pennywinkle had said, their Green
Shoes could and did make them as little
as pepper cOrns.

that sense of pride in our products
which should move us to see that they
are not only Of the best, but that every
possible advantage is taken, and that
the very best possible display is made.
If Manager Smith comes home from
Jacksonville this year with the blue
ribbon, it viii mean that his exhibit
has won over the other counties in
spite of the fact that those counties,
in some instances, have been able to
match his hundreds with thousands of
dollars. with which their counties
backed their exhibits.
This is the case not because these
counties are squanderers, but because
the hackers are good business men who
realize that putting money into the
fair each year means putting money
where it will bring real results, and
give to the county the greatest meas
ure of publicity.
They are letting the world know what
they have, and because of this pub
licity, they are rapidly building up their

no better tran Escambia county and,
in many instances, nothing like as

A DAILY MESSAGE
BY DR.. WILLIAM {. BARTON
THE NEXT WAR

Compared with the next war. the
one just closed will have been a very
tame and lady-like affair The next
war will begin where this one left off.
We shall have no illusions about it.
We shall begin with lToison gas that
may wipeout a city in a single night,
and we shall not have any compunc-
ton about dropping it where it will
kill women and children.
Make no mistake, if a war is to oc-
cur in the present unsettled state of
world opinion, it will very nearly OBJ
lterate civilization.
It is not possible to conceive of
horrors so great as are likely to be
perpetrated in the next war
Before the last war ended, all the
armies We're doing deeds which at the
Outset they condemned Germany for
doing. America was making poison
gas as fast as its chemical resources
would enable it to do so.
America is now experimenting with
poison gas more deadly than any yet
used upon the battlefield.
And so is Great Britain and France
And so is Germany.
And so is. Japan.
The conference on reduction Of arm
aments has been in session a week.
am not a delegate, and neither
are you who read this article. But /
am one of the hundred million folk in
this country who help to make public
sentiment, and l intend that all the
public sentiment l make shall be in
favor of peace.
If the nations do not disarm, the
nations will perish The nations that
take up the sword will perish by the
sword.
Now is the time for every loyal
American to stand for peace as this
nation has always stood for peace.
/ One nation cannot disarm unless
the rest do so. We can only disarm
by mutual consent. Let us all help
the world to lay down this crushing
burden of propagation for war.
One more war will be the death of
civilization.

Common Sense Ways to
Keep Well
BY DR.. r. r. BISHOP

1t is an unfortunate condition of
our present advanced state of civiliza-
ton that few people can live out of
doors all the time, and many are so
situated as to be unable even to Sc
cure ventilation, granting that they
desire it.
But if we are more or less helpless
as to our condition during the day
time we can at least govern our con-
troll Of air supply at night We spend
practically one-third of our lives in
bed.
Those who have slept out doors
any ,length of time are unanimous in
their testimony that the best ventilated
sleeping room is far inferior in health
fulness to an outdoor sleeping porch,
open tent or window tent.
Tor generations outdoor sleeping has
occasionally been used as health
measure In certain favorable climates
and seasons. But only in the last two
decades has it been used in ordinary
climates and all the year round. Out
door sleeping next was generally
adopted as treatment for tuberculosis,
and later for nervous troubles and
other diseases, including pneumonia.
OF late the value of outdoor sleeping
for well persons of all classes and ages
has come to be widely recognized. 1t
increases the power to resist disease
and greatly promotes physical vigor,
endurance and working power.
1t is important that an outdoor
sleeping place be protected from the
wind on two or--in very windy places
three sides. But of course, sleeping out
does not reach its maximum efficiency
if free currents of air are not secured.
In cold weather, a thick mattress or
two mattresses, should be used. 1t not
only is what is over the sleeper but
also what is under that insures
warmth.
The body should be warmly clad and
the head and neck protected by a
warm cap or helmet. To prevent the
entrance of cold air under the bed
clothes, one or more blankets might
be extended at least two feet beyond
the head, with a central slit for the
head.
Sheets should be well warmed in the
winter time before being used. This
can be done easily with a hot water
bag. flatiron or soapstone. Blankets
next TO the skin are not hygienic.

CONVINCED THAT THE SOUL

Science long scoffed at the theoIogi-

YOUTH ETERNAL.
(By Berton Braley.)

Lord, keep me young, though my joints
get creaky,
My hair turn gray and my eyes go
bad,
Though the valves of my heart get
somewhat leaky,
Let my spirit still be a spirit glad.
For arteries harden and thews grow
rusty
And the strength may be as a spring
that's sprung,
But the mind and the soul may still be
lusty
If You, dear Master, viii keep me
young
Lord, keep me young. though the years
may chill me
And love be only a tales that told,
Life vf11 have glamor and glow t. thrill
me
So long as the heart of me isn't old;
If my voice shall be too cracked for
singing.
S If my feet no more in the dance are
flung.
I still can list to the laughter ringing
And find it good, if You keep me
young.
Let me never sit in the corner, frown-
ing
on fun and frolic and gaiety.
Let me rather smile at the joyous
Glowing
OF youth that merrily winks at me.
Then I shall not shudder at strength
departed
Or growl and grumble with acrid
tongue,
But dream again with bliss light
hearted
IF You. dear Master, win keep me
young.
