The Hippodrome to-day enters the
third week of its motion picture policy,
presenting upon one bill two feature
pictures, in addition to the usual edu-
eational, topical and comedy numbers
and a full program of orchestral and
organ music. The new foreign picture,
Tradition" tale of two worlds, based
upon Der Tod and die Liebe, by Paul
Otto and George Jacob, is presented
for the first time in America, and the
Malcolm Strauss photodrama, "The
Twice Born Woman is continued. The

tings for both pictures and who also
directs the orchestra. Frederick Kings

A Slump i'm Stage
Twins, Says Mears
OF Broadway Whirl'

NF YOU are twins, petite, young, at
" tractive, good dancers and singers,
and want to share honors modest
ly with such stars as Richard earle,
Blanche Ring, Charles Winninger,
Wlnona Winter and Jay Gould, call on
John Henry Mears, producer of 'The
Broadway Whirl," at the Times Square
Theater. If you can't call phone or
write, for there's hearty reception
waiting for the right pair of girls.
Mears has been looking for them a
long time. You don't have to be real
twins, so long as you look enough alike.
Nor do you require stage experience,
for if you have the talent you'll get all
the schooling necessary.
The fact is that there are two per-
fectly good new roles in "The Broad
way Whirl" waiting to be filled and
two good salaries still unpaid because
there seem no suitable applicants.
Of course, Mr.. Mears has tried the
theatrical agencies, but maybe he is a
little fastidious. When 1.-THE Broad
way Whirl" went into rehearsal several
months ago, instead of taking girls
from the choruses of other shows Mr..
Mears advertised in the daily papers,
just as he would have advertised for
cook or secretary. From several hum
dreds he selected the present score of
beauties of the ensemble. Of these
twenty, Mr.. Mears now reveals, four

young men and women, but the blithe-

course, an absence of technique, but
there was touch of the grotesque
which gave charm to the dances and
lifted them out of the commonplace.
Here one caught the real atmosphere of
the old Hawaiian dances. There was
story or legend back of each dance.
This projected an impression so vivid
that it held your attention and you
could really follow the story with de-
light. The grotesquc beauty and sinu-

The principal narrators will be Hazel

Right after New Years Day Head
Consul Robert Henderson of New

two assistants from the head camp

their last session in New Iberia.
They will meet in March, 1921 at

will be held.

Of the Woodmen of the World, this
order has one of the very best frat

Death.
Mrs. Sutherlin. formerly Miss Lii

New Orleans since their marriage
last February, but was native of
New Iberia, having been born here
in June, 1896.
She had gone through the public
schools and Mt. Carmel Convent
here, and was graduate of the
State Institute in Lafayette. For
a number of years she taught in the
high school in New Iberia giving UP
that position to get married last
February.
News of her death after short
illness came as shock to her humid
reds of friends in this city, and cast
a cloud of gloom over the communi
ty.
She had most cheerful DISPOSE
ton, and sunny smile that made
her welcome member of any party,
and she carried sunshine wherever
she might be.
But the Grim Reaper came, and
he loving mother and devoted hus-
,and saw their lovely flower gather
ID into the sheaf and carried away.
The funeral service, conducted by
Rev. Father j M. Langlois, in st.
'eter'e Church, at o'clock on Christ
mas Day. was attended by large
oncourse of sorrowing relatives and
riends who came to. pay their last
aspects to this universally loved
