BIG VODvIL ACT
MONDAY And TUESDAY

The greatest illusion ever pre-
scented to the world is coming to
the opera house Monday and
Tuesday in addition to the reg
ular feature program of pictures.
The management has secured for
two nights showing the great
illusion act Saving a Womon III
Two" which has caused much
comment by skeptics throughout
the world. You no doubt have
heard of this marvellous and SEN
sational act, as it appeared in
Lexington for week at Ben
Ali theatre a few months ago. 1t
also proved a sensation in Gin
cinnati when it played the Pal
ace and Lyric theatres.
Millions of people all over the
country nave witnessed the N.Y.
tifying exhibition of this inter
esting illusion and none have ev-
er deemed it possible to solve
the mystery. Right before your
eyes you see a fair lady cut in
half with a saw, then pulled
apart in tie presence of the all
dience. Anyone. is permitted to
come upon the stage and witness
the exhibition and assist in saw
ing the woman in two.
This act is without a dOub1
the most mystifying illusion ev-
er presented and we suggest yor
do not miss it. By special ar
engagements Miss Ward has Sc,
cured the act for this city with
out raising the price Of admis-
sion. The biggest crowd i'll the
history Of the local theatres Is
tc turn out for this
mystifying vaudeville act, as ii
is the most talked of sensation
on the American stage today.

BEND

We often hear the remark that
the young people of today are
not like they were 50 years ago
This is true. The training is diff
ferent, the population has more
than doubled in numbers. The
boys and girls were brought up
under strict discipline; they were
made to attend church at least
cnce month; they were made
to be in at an early hour of ev-
enings. They remained with pa
rents until Fl years old when
they married or left home. This
training was so well founded and
instilled into their children by
their parents as they had been
taught. There are so many at
fractions so different from the
good old days, picture shows.
baseball, etc. 1t is no uncommon
i, thing to see a baseball game on
Sunday within a short distance
of church and young folks and
some of the older, ones taking
part instead of being at church.
both in progress the = same
time, thus getting away from old
time customs. Large crowds go
to the bathing resorts on Sunday
both men and women coming
from far and near. If it had
been proclaimed that there was,
to be church at this particular
place there would not be one
tenth of the crowd present. An
other thing, we believe, is the
most detrimental to the young
people and especially those of
tender age, is the smoking of
cigarettes. Go into a crowd in
town or country and see the,
number of boys smoking cigar
cites. The things mentioned all
go hand in hand, one brings or
the other. We hear the good old
elders of the church saying these
things ought to be checked. They
were allowed to get into the
church little at a time until it has
gone to such an extent it is i'm
possible to check them. These
good elders have a big PROPOSE
ton before them and one that
will require the best heads tol
work out plan by which it can
be checked. 1t has been said
there is time for all things, but
it is possible the smoking of Gig
arettes was unknown then. We
believe this one thing is doing
more harm to the rising genera
ton than any other one thing at i
the present, bootlegging not con-
sidered.
