She was never better than in the double

Flowers Bring Congratulations.
Kenoshans who attended either the

shows into the corridors and balconies
of the new theatre and marvelled at its
conveniences. Included in these are
the foyer on the mezzanine floor and

Music and Thrills,

There was nothing lacking in the
program presented for the entertain
ment of the thousands who thronged
the theatre. Interspersed with the
best that the silent drama has to offer
in all of its lines was music fitting I'd
such an occasion. 1t opened with the
organ prelude which inspired and
thrilled as DR.. En- Slatre- Wilson pre-
sided at it with the touch of master;
it continued with the most pleasing
music of the orchestra as it accom-
panied the offerings on the silver
sheet; between the different pictures
Hy Colman's Syncopators with Rosalie
Reuter- and Zada Weber presented a
dance supreme and musical novelties
which deserved the storm of applause
which they received; then there came
the musical moments presented by
George Lipschultz and Billy Under
which convinced the spectators that
Orpheus had poured forth his blessing
on the theatre which bears his name; ;
and last but not least the organ and
orchestra continued it's music while the
people watched the wondrous story of
"Smilin' Through" presented on the
screen before them.
Escape With Harold Lloyd.
No account of the opening perform
ance would be complete without men
tion of the comedy, Never Weaken"
starring Harold Lloyd, which was part
of the cinema Offering for the evening,
One may have thought that he had
seen hair-breadth escapes pictured on
the screen, but never any like those
which faced the valiant Harold as he
sailed forthgin this picture to end all
or win his love. The audience gasped
as they watched him in inimitable
style perform almost the impossible;
it was a real masterpiece in the line
of comedy.
And Then "SmfIin' Through"
And then came "Smilin' Through"
starring Norma Talmadge. 1t was a
masterpiece, we'll worthy of having the
honor of being the first picture shown
in the new theatre. 1t was the first
showing of the picture in the entire
country, this special release having
been secured by the SAKE Amusement
company, in charge of the Orpheum,
from the producers.
''Smilin' Through" is one of those
wholesome pictures which grips ann
holds throughout the entire play with
its wonderful pathos and romance. The

STAR SENDS GREETING.

One of the most interesting
kilograms of congratulation re-
ceived by the management of the

flowers wired by Norma Tai
madge. The telegram read:
'Heartiest congratulations upon
opening of New Orpheum. Am
glad to hear you are running

PUTS A FINGER
In ESKIMO PIE
Earl Halberstadt Formerly
of Kenosha, Wins Right
to Share in Profit.
ASKS FOR A PATENT

It was little Jack Horner who sat in
the corner and put his thumb into the
Christmas pie and its Earl Halberstadt.
formerly Of Kenosha but now of Ra-
cine, who is planning to put in his
thumb and try and pull q plum out
of Eskimo pie.
The Eskimo pie was invented in 0ma-
ha and exploited in Chicago, but it re-
NAMED for former Kenosha man to
show the world how to make 'em.
Earl Halberstadt, dipping ice cream
in chocolate at Billy's Ice Cream plant,
in acme, decided it was too monoto-
Gus to suit him, so he got busy with a
stub pencil on the back of an envelope
and figured out a way to do it by
machinery. He has applied for a
patent on his invention, jointly with
Victor Pier and Lawrence Zimprich
who supplied part of the funds to
buildNthe first machine.
Speeds Up Production.
With Eskimo pies selling like hot
cakes despite cold weather, ice cream
manufacturers have been wondering
how they'll keep up with the demand
when hot weather arrives. One of those
who wondered was "Billy" Halberstadt
Four persons, working ten hours a
day, were turning out two hundred
dozen Eskimo pies daily at the Hal
berstadt plant. Now, it takes twelve
persons to keep up with the new ma
chine, which makes a weeks supply in
a day, working at lazy space. Earl
Halberstadt, inventor of the machine,
claims it will dip up to $4,000 Eski-
mo pies in ten hours, if operated
by rapid workers.
How 1t Works.
Halberstadt's machine consists of an
endless chain operated on sprockets
From the chain depend sharp hooks at
intervals of three to four inches pro-
jecting on either side. Workers hook
bricks of ice cream on as the chain
moves over the table. The chain
curves downward on a big sprocket
and dips the ice cream in milk choco-
| lite at blood heat. The pies emerge
and move slowly onward over another
table where other workers remove
them. The pies are dry by this time
and are carried to a wrapping table.
Two persons hook pies on the chain
two remove them, two carry away the
finished product and six wrap them up
Halberstadt is now working to make
the machine entirely mechanical and
automatic. He seeks to have it pick
up the ice cream, dip it, drop the pies
on to moving belt, and dump them
in front of the wrappers.
