is the appearance of the Indiana
Concert Orchestra, which rises from
the pit on moving platform. At
first you only hear the orchestra.
then slowly the platform starts NOV
ing upward until the orchestra is
in full view. And when the picture
starts, it again disappears. The
same applies to one of the most
Wonderful pipe organs have ever
heard. Harold Ramsey is one Of
the recognized artists of the country
and he admits that this is one organ
whose possibilities he will never ex-
cell. This artist can turn this or
gan into a gigantic orchestra, and
then with as much ease he can get
the quiet effect of a mandolin. Ram
sey, on this weeks program, is
playing a novelty, Organs I Have
Played" which has been arranged
to show the marvellous tone as well
as how perfected the instrument is.
Special lights on the organ cause it
to stand out The entire presenta-
ton idea of the organ music at the
Indiana is something entirely new
to this city.
This weeks bill brings to this city
the first of the Puolix presentations.
The Introductory one is called 1.-THE
Inaugural Banquet"
Here is lavish and beautiful revue
entertainment and looks as rich
from scenic standpoint as any of the
big legitimate revues. The prin-
cipals are recognized entertainers
from the revue stage such as Jack
North, singing comedian; Helen
Fouts Cahoon, soprano: Peggy Eng
lish, a blues singer, who stops the
revue as does Cy Landy, eccentric
dancer.
The dancing girls in this revue
have been splendidly trained and
many of their formations are entire
ly new to the revue stage.
I can say with ease as we'll as
safety that there never has been
such lavish revue ever presented
in movie theater in this city as
THE Inaugural Banquet" Here is
the richest type of revue entertain
ment. ~
The feature picture for the, week
is Lewis Stone in 1.-THE Prince of
Head Walters" Stone appeared
personally on the inaugural pro-
gram and left yesterday for New
York.
THE Head Waiter" is mighty
good theater. 1t is wise theater.
The subtitles are filled with smart
remarks. The story concerns the
efforts Of head waiter not to spoil
the life of his son.
The son in his story never knows
that Pierre, the Head waiter, is his
father. The lad tries to be wild in
the night life of New York, but it is
the wise Pierre and a good girl who
shows the lad what boob young
ster really can be when he attempts
to be swift"
Personally, like the way the pic
ture has been directed and acted.
Stone has dress suit role, and he
certainly knows how to play this
type of a role.
1.-THE Prince of Head Walters" is
interesting and effective theater.
The lengthy bill includes an over
ture, "Solenelle 1872" At the first
performance the orchestra was di-
rected by Nathanial Finston, general
music director of Publix Theaters,
in the capacity of guest conductor,

The City Manager Plan Committee Says:

You will soon be told, no doubt,
that the City Manager plan takes
from the people the right to choose
their chief executive. The fact is
it takes his selection out of the
hands of the political ring. Under
the party system the people vote for
their chief executive, but he is
chosen for them long before the
time comes to vote.
Our forefathers never intended
that cities should choose their chief
administrative officer by popular
election. The fact is they did just
the opposite. The laws originally
provided for the election of a town
board of council, who chose the
mayor. Up to the year 1920 no
mayor was chosen by popular vote;
the process Of direct election has
been brought about by state legis-
lation. The statesmen who assert
that the manager plan is un-Amer-
lean because the mayor and the
manager are chosen by the council,
should read the history of their
government.
If one-half of the cities in this
country were getting decent govern
ment under the mayor-council sys-

Under the City Manager form of
government, as proposed for Indi-
annapolis, public emphasis would be
transferred from the question of
how to elect certain persons to
municipal offices to the more vital
consideration Of how to give the
public its full value in administra-
ton.
The practical question is not as

but "Is it better than the other
plans so far as tried?" To argue
that we shall have no government
unless it is perfect is to argue for
anarchy.

THE SONS OF ESAU

Oh, we are Esau's shaggy sons,
Our birthright we have sold
For pottage-we the hungry ones
Who wore the yoke of old.
No blessing from ancestral hands
Shall rest upon our head
We have no fruits, no flocks, no lands,
Ours but crust of bread
We shall not wall against our fate
AS did our ancient sire,
But we shall toll both soon and late,
Made strong by great desire.
Our labors shall not be in vain
AS serfs of shop and soil,
For we shall take what we shall gain
By blood and sweat of toll.
And we, the beaten ones, at last
Shall WELD our rightful powers
The sons of Jacob ruled the past,
The future shall be ours!
