American stage. 81 was necessary
for me 10 journey 10 Cincinnati last
week. The attraction in question
was Walter Hampden in "CyranO de
Bergerac" at the Sam $. Shubcrt
Theater Hampden has arrived at
the commanding position he now
holds in the classical drama as the
result Of years Of going II alone on
the American stage. when he
turned his eyes years ago on the
goal reached by a few great actors
in such roles. New York managers
were inclined to doubt the drawing
power of Hampden in the classics.
Some weeks ago l talked TO n for
mer manager OF Hampden. and he
told me OF the early hardships Of
Hampden on the road in Shakes
peare. When Sothern and Marlowe
were leading in the field years ago,
Hampton was playing the tank
towns. but always giving his hest.
He met financial failure in those
days. but he never gave up. lie
had a goal and he%Jept on. Finally,
last season. he managed 10 take
over the National Theater in New
York for year. There was o%top
clause If business dropped This
gave him a chance TO realize his
dream OF presenting "Cyrano," the
really great heroic comedy OF Ed
mond Rostand The result is we'll
known. It stayed for months on
Broadway. and a. times even led
The dramatic and even the musical
field in box office figures. A great
compliment to this man who strug-
gled for years for recognition.
Hampton probably did over $22 600
In Cincinnati last week. His Satur-
day night audience was very large
one. The top scale was s3.75. and
II high tariff was ever justified it
was in this instance. He carries
more people with him than the larg-
est revues. After a few moro cities
see this glorious triumph, Hampton
returns to the National Theater in
New York to revive "OthellO. "

Aim. o f Idaho Club
Women Are Explained
(Contributed)

The annual convention of the
First District Federation of Wo-
mems clubs of Idaho will be held at
Oakley, September "a, 20 and 26.
We feel that Oakley is signally hon
o:'ed in having the privilege of en-
tertaining the delegates, and the
community cannot help but be richer
and better in many ways, because Of
the gathering. The earnest cooper
alton of everyone is asked in order
that the visiting delegates may feel
at home and the affair be made a
success.
Club work is nolonger in its in
fancy and is playing large part in
the life of women, although many
are not entirely aware of what the
women are trying to accomplish in
the way of civic reforms and com
munity and state needs. From ev-
cry angle the club woman is yalua-
BILE to you and me as citizens and in
dividuals, and on the foundation al
ready built many things are pledged
for the good of the future of Idaho.
At this particular time the women
are working hard to secure state
tuberculosis hospital of which the
state is so keenly in need. Idaho
has absolutely no hospital, public or
private, where tuberculosis pa
tient who is not an exservice man
can receive scientific care. And we
have many i'll and destitute citizens
who are forced to appeal for charity
IN other states. The last legislature,
through a misunderstanding on the
matter, diverted the hospita fund
into the general fund, and the wo-
men of Idaho have for their most
important objective in club work, the
winning back of this hospital fund.
1t is trite saying that we get out
OF life just what we put in 1t, and
to realize the full benefit and in
spiration of these meetings, it is nee
essary to have a full attendance.
The meetings are open to all and
everyone is cordially invited. A full /
program of the proceedings will be
found in this issue of The Herald. |

Mr. and Mrs. Amber Are
Given Thrilling Party
BY Enthusiastic Friends

Rudolph Amber and Miss Hazel
West, well known young people of
Oakley, were married at Burley last
Saturday night. Sunday night few
CT their many friends gave them
tangible, visible and audible evil
dence of the high esteem in which
they are held. A fine bridal car
riage was fitted out--a buugy
L;tched to a jitney. That music
might not be lacking, a volunteer
band" was hastily organized.
The young couple were given a
distinctly thrilling ride in the car
riage. accompanied by the volunteer
band. The parade started on its tri-
umphal way about eleven at night,
and continued till three or four the
next morning. 1t probably wouldn't
have stopped then, but the bridal
carriage broke down. 1t seems that
buggy can't stand the pace set by
secondhand Ford. And the bride
and bridegroom had to walk home.
Interviewed by a Herald reporter,
the bride stated that the parade was
q very thrilling experience, but that
she would gladly go through 1t all
again for the sake of getting such
a fine husband.
