DISABLED VETERANS
IN MUSICAL COMEDY

The musical comedy The Silver
wedding Jubilee" by the patients Of
Veterans Hospital at Perry Point,
Nd. will be shown at the Play
house on Monday night.
The entire production will prove
unusual TO the theatre-going public
OF this city. II has the distinction Of
being planned. staged and produced
by the only travelling troupe OF dis
abld veterans OF the World War IN
tho United States. The entire per-
formance was written by the pa
tiepts themselves and Is directed by
A p. Quinn. c. B. Tarrant and
Thomas Ford, three Of the actors.
The costumes were made by a
Philadelphia costumer especially for
the troupe. The leading female i'm
personators, Horstick and Newman,
have Ave complete changes OF COS
tune and the remaining actors are
in nowise stinted as TO wealth OF
clothes.
Another feature OF this show is
the fact that all profits derived from
the production will go toward a
fund from which tie boys at the
hospital may buy athletic goods,
take picnics on the bay. hold dances,
eto. The Government usually pro-
vides for all this, but as there were
insufficient funds for these things al
the present time. the patients
formed an Athletic and Recreation
/ Association and are raising funds
fc- themselves. The head OF the Vet
erans' Bureau IN Washington has
put his stamp OF approval on the
project. believing that Il will b
beneficial IN more ways than one In
helping the veterans toward a cure
from the various nervous trouble,
from which they are suffering.
