VAUDEVILLE AND
MOVIE REVIEW
The Grand


The Great Southern Minstrel
opened on Monday night to a sold
uot house, and every artist went over
with a bang.
When the curtain went up the
spectacle was great to see, a man
named Keith" started the ball roll
ing with a hot jazz number, and re-
sponded to several encores. Mr..
Rodger Jones, in composition of his
own named Jane Dear" was ably
rendered. Next the efficient Inter
loctor) Mr.. Jerry Mills introduced a
young lady who creditably sang the
Royal Garden Blues. Next came
Billy McCarver, who got away big
with Easy Steppers Ball. William
Turner, bass singer of note, sweetly
rendered the Armor Song.
"The Avenue"
The Flat Below moved from the
Grand Theatre to this Theatre and
opened to a good house. The show
was reviewed in our last issue, and
we advise all who have not seen it
not to miss it, as it is play that will
touch some part of every ones life.
Monogram
Ollie Burgone and company are
the attraction here for the week
Miss Burgone is always a welcome
visitor to the stroll, as she always
presents something worth while.

renounces allegiance to his foreign ruler, and in most cases he only ap- pears in open court and declares on oath that he will support and defend the Constitution. The husband is the one who must be fitted and pre- pared for his part as an American citizen. Even the children are sent to public schools, but what of the wife? The true process of naturalization should include the education of the mother of this immigrant family. The mothers influence and guidance would be lost to the family without the edu- cation that naturalization proceedings provide and require. My bill is in tended to permit this wife and mother to learn something about the country. She is the one who should guide these children and ought te have the same privilege of an education as the father.
 'Under the present law any Amer ican woman who marries a foreigner shall take the nationality of her hus- band.' This bill repeals that provi- sion of law in line with the Republican and Democratic national platforms. The Republican platform in part pro- vides: An American woman resident in the United States shall not lose her citizenship by marriage to an alien.'
 And the Democratic platform deal ing with this subject advocates: Fed eral legislation which shall insure that A ori icor in, O TInifod States, but married to aliens, shall re- tain their American citizenship.
 ''In my opinion the rich American woman who marries a title and lives ileges and benefits of an American citizen, and under my bill special pro- vision is made that if she resides con- tinuously for two years in the country of which her husband is a citizen or subject, or resides continuously for five years abroad, she is presumed to have ceased to be an American citizen.
 But there are many American girls who marry foreign-born and who con- tinue to reside in this country. Their loyalty and fidelity is with the United States. Since the nineteenth amend ment grants equal suffrage to women, so also should they have equal rights with reference to citizenship. An American citizen who marries an alien girl still retains his citizenship; so also should the American girl who marries the alien Anan. We should not relinquish our rights to legislate or withdraw our country's protection from these natural-born American women; their personal and property rights should be determined by our laws and we should not by Iegisla- tive action surrender this rig to any foreign nation.
 "The purpose of the bill is to place citizenship on the highest plane pos sible It is a privilege and not a right. Participation in our government and the protection by our country should not be determined in the case of mar ried women solely by a marriage cere- mony."

man who Is posing as her father, and that she donned boys clothes and cut her hair because she liked to look like a boy. She declared they were mar ried in Wichita, Kan, on June % and she does not see anything wrong with dressing like boy and today declared that she intends to sue these mean old policemen for arresting her and her husband.
 Ward, who gives his age as thirty nine, tells the same story as the girl. He says that he is a former Texas ranger of San Antonio and that he met Mrs. Ward in Wichita less than a month ago, where she was visiting her brother after graduating from the Arkansas High school.
 Mrs. Ward explains that she Is a lazy girl and that one of the reasons she fell in love with her spouse is because he was so diligent and help full.
 He always buttons my shoes and puttees," she proudly exclaimed. He has oodles of money and after we travel around the United States a while, we are going to France and Italy for a visit"
 The police released the couple at once upon receiving official advices from Wichita that they were legally married.

Deep Mystery Attends This Honeymoon

r OvELAND, COLO.-To have his A bride disappear in her night clothes from the room in which he had left her the next night was the ex- perience of Walter c. Esmond, Chi cago theatrical man, in Loveland.
 Esmond was married to q Denver girl Friday. Saturday Esmond and his bride left for Estes Park on their honeymoon. Saturday night they registered at a hotel ip Loveland as w. c. Esmond and wife"
 At 1 o'clock Sunday morning a man registered at the hotel as ''F. Chies, Denver" He demanded that Esmond De awakened, saying that he had come 70 Loveland in a stolen car. The clerk declined to awaken his guests. A short time later a second man, unidentified, repeated the story, demanding that Es- mond be awakened. The clerk went 1p to the room and Esmond came flown. With his accuser he went to a nearby automobile agency and proved he car was not the stolen vehicle.
 While he was gone the second man, according to other roomers in the hO- tel, went to the room. A short time

TAIES FROM BIG CITIES
E.sta, Esther and Workhouse Stonepile

Mrs. Culp, the deserted wife, and her nine children, including the twins of seven months, were among those who stood on the station platform and saw husband and father brought back to face the law.
 My wife wasn't Christian" Culp asserted. When she was angry she would curse and no Christian can do that. I pleaded with her and prayed for her, but to no avail. I assisted her in the care of the children and even fashioned dresses for the girls and helped stitch them on the machine. I never could get my wife to dress up. She sent Esther and me away. She made us leave, but am willing to for give her." he declared magnanimouslg.
 Esther's name is Mary Esther Hughes. The wife's name was Mary Esta Hughes. They are not related.
 Mary Esther says she will always love Culp. Mary Esta says she may take her husband back.
 In the meantime Culp is breaking stone on the rock pile and doubtless thinking it over.

determined by her marital status. Jus tice and common sense should permit a married woman to act upon her own wishes and qualifications for natural iZatiOn rather than those of her hus- band.
 "A natural-bOrn American must wait 21 years before she or he is permitted to participate in the government of this country. A foreign-bOrn man or single woman who comes to this coun- try and resides here continuously for five years, if he qualities before the courts, may become naturalized and acquire the right of suffrage. But foreign-born woman who comes to this country one day automatically be- comes an American citizen the next if she marries an American citizen or if her husband becomes naturaliZed. With one days period of residence, as compared to the natural-bOrn Ameri- cans 21 years of residence, she ac- quires the same rights, privileges, and benefits in and to our government. She is not required to be able to speak the English language, to know of our customs and laws, our COnstirunvn, and to be attached to the principles of our government; she does not even have to renounce allegiance to her foreign ruler and take the oath of allegiance to Uncle Sam.
 "Citizenship in this country should not depend on the marriage status, but should be based upon loyalty to our country and a knowledge of its language and laws, as well as wish or desire to become an American citi- zen. On the other hand, under our present law a married alien woman who may have resided in this country for many years and who has learned to love America, who knows our language, our customs, our laws, can- not become an American citizen ex- cept by the naturalization of her hus- band. Why should her citizenship depend upon the will of her husband?
 "The bill under consideration repeals that section of the present law
 
 which provides Any woman who is now or who may hereafter be married to a citizen of the United States and who might herself be lawfully natur- alized shall be deemed a citizen,' and in it's place provides that when an alien woman marries an American, or when her husband becomes naturalized, she does not automatically became an American citizen, but if she also de sires to become an American citizen she may do so by being naturalized through a shortened process.
 "The present law permitting the naturalization of foreign born deals directly with the husband and father and gives the wife and mother but secondary consideration. The husband is the one who is educated. He is the one who must learn to speak the English language, to Enow our coun- try, it's Constitution, and laws. He is the one who must be attached to the principles of our nation. He only
