Army and Navy Debs
 Often Lose on Debut

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.--Not all the society debutantes schedul- cd for coming out parties this fall and winter will actually get to participate in those joyous ccca- sions of lights. music and flowers.
 Every year. there are sighs from q certain number of the service dcbs, as those girls belonging tc army and navy circles are termed because their fathers are suddenly ordered to some far-distant post. All arrangements for the long looked for debutante ball or tea have to be cancelled
 Sometimes the decorations are ready and the coming out gowns aid away in tissue paper when the terse order comes Then there is a wild furry recalling invitations and eancelling orders for flowers and refreshments and a service q b -to-be ia unceremoniously whisked away with red eyes and reproaehful looks. Quite num- Der of such debs are to make their bow to capital society this winter.

- ----------------- - - - BIG COMEDY FEATURE
 AT LIBERTY SUNDAY

A surprise treat of romance and thrills, generously spiced with laughter, will be the cinematic dish offered at the Liberty Sunday when Partners Again-with Pot ash and Perlmutter," is presented with Abe and Mawruss as auto mobile distributors who never dis tribute a car
 Laughter in it's many phases is the chief accessory that goes with the car troubles of these jovial testers. Thrills centered around auto demonstrations, runaway mo- tors, police chase and an aero plane that kisses the clouds and then nose dives to the earth, are revealed in convincing earnestness. The entire thrill elements have the effect of making the two frantic partners more frantic in their ef- forts to conquer space on land and in the air.
 Two new elements in comedy making have also been injected in the production by Director Henry King. Besides the dominant note of saughter, romance throbbing with the elan of youth acts as a balance for the laughter and for thrills.

 "A. p. Feature Editcrl

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-The real. istic mode in the theatre has maie it more than difficult fer one ol the best known actors of recent generations to obtain a suitab,e play.
 Hence comes the announcement of Edward Hugh Sothern, veteran of Shake5pearean drama, that hs will retire after a forthcoming lee. ture tour.
 "The kind of thing I did has passed away. belong to a gen eration which acted under different circumstances.
 That was the brief explanation given the ship news reporters wher Sothern returned from Europe.
 Now can be told the story oi Sothern's retirement.
 An old player once said to him T have not left the stage; the stage has left me" That is the situation in which tAe son of the -a'2c1 Frg'lsa actor. E. A. soth- asn, finds himself at the age O. 6S, after 50 years on the stage
 The lusty dialog of gangsters and their girl friends and the frank talk of the more polite mod erns have no charm for F. H. Soth- ern and he will seek another di. rection for some outlet for his energies.
 Ever since Miss Julia Marlowe's g retirement from the active duties of the theatre some three CT four seasons ago she and MT. Sothern have been besieged with proposals to repeat their Shakespearean per formances. Mrs. Sothern's deci- sion, however, is not to be shak- en. She is too happy in the re newed health and repose which it is reported she has found il Switzerland.
 And her husband, unwilling to appear in the old repertoire with out her, finds he is not able te secure a play which will assimi-

Mining Man Wants to Ship Bears Out-Asks Will

AACeR " 1OAi ANCn oJ
 From cowboy to bearbey-taat's what r. G. Manley, widely known northern mining man, hopes to be next season when he tackles the big scheme which he is working on now to round up all the bears and destructive animals and drive them from the Yukon. In relating his plans on this proposed round up the veteran mining operator states that good lasso men will be necessary in this respect and he wants to interest Will Rogers, fla nous movie actor cowboy, in the scheme
 Manley himself is an old cow puncher, having worked cattle in the Indian Territory fer Williams 6 Murray on the "WIW" ranch, before it was thrown open to sett- lers as Oklahoma
 T know how to do this job, " says Manley, but 1 would have to have some good cowboy ropers to help in lassoing the bears and in helping with the roundup. We would drive the bears down to the river and the rest would be com paratively easy. l have talked to several people about this scheme and some of them have laughed at me, but l am positive that it could be done and that the people would be given a thrill in the bar gain.
 Those on the bank might al5o get a thrill every day. too, for like some of the wild and woody steers we used to chase down in Texas, some of those big bruins are also bound to put up a fight. We would have to expect several fights, particularly from mother bears with cubs. However l th.nl we could take care of that all right.
 "As far as the spectators are concerned it might be a good idea if they would watch tie roundup from steamer, where .bey could ns2 their eyes and cameras and not be in danger. Of course, there were any who wanted to gC out in the small boats, they could do that also, but the risk might be much greater

late into the background created by 22 years devoted 10 poetic and romantic drama in conjunction with Miss Marlowe.
 Sothern. however, in his own words, has consented with en- thusiasm to talk before cultural or ganization5 and groups in various parts of the country on the his- tory and traditions of the theatre, the lives of tho great actors of the past; also to give seie stions in action from Hamlet, 'Othello, The Merchant of Venice, Mac beth and ether plays of Shakes peare.1
 He will contribute some lighter matter in readings from his ia ther's comedy, Lord Dundreary, and from Justin McCarthy's TO- nance, If l were King"
 He hopes his persuasions may result in some provision for the support of the repertory system in the larger cities of the country, for it is Sotherns desire to plead the cause of such institutions as a means of resurrecting. the past glories of the stage and of pro- viding that training for fine act ing which passed with the dlsap- pearance of the old stock con- panies wherein were disciplined the great actors and actresses of the Golden Age"
 Said MT. Sothern:
 "I don't thing l should ever have gone on the stage if the plays of my youth had been like those of today. The star system

RUG

CHICAGO, Nov. IA Persian
rug, said to be six centuries old.
has been purchased by Mrs, Edith
Rockefeller Mccormick. It was
learned today.
The rug, according to its history,
has caressed the feet Of Shahs,
Cars, and Emperors. Experts in
Persia worked on the fabric for
years, and when completed pre-
sented 1t to their Shah.
Years later it was q present to
peter the Great Of Russia. in whose
winter palace in st. Petersburg It
was displayed as a rare treasure.
Later, when Russia needed the aid
Of Austria ins secret intrigues. the
rug was presented to the Emperor
and found repose in the Hofburg
Palace in Vienna.
Then came revolution, and royalty
was driven out. The famous rug
disappeared. 1T reappeared re-
Gently in the London antique marts.
Mrs. Mccormick and another, UNI
known to her, entered spirited
bidding contest for the treasure.
Mrs. Mccormick got 1t for $120, 900.
Later she learned the other bidder
was John d. Rockefeller, jr., her
brother.
When Mrs. Rockefeller attempted
to bring the rug to this country
the United States customs officials
demanded $4,000 duty She de-
clined to pay it. The rule has been
that any art work more than 100
years old, may be brought into this

Those that succeeded in getting

added. "and there most Of the sue
cessful planes came to grief and fell.
And there the ambulance corps kept
constant watch. The surgeons and
nurses were always surprised when
a plane succeeded in rounding and
passing on. with an ambulance in
constant pursuit. All planes moved
slowly. and at a low altitude All
were erratic and wabbled because Of
insufficient power.
THE Rheims planes were Of every
shape, and reflected no element of
Standardization except that they had
wings and rudders. Individual ideas
were being tested out with a ven
geance, by the law Of gravity.
The men who took part literally
took their lives in their hands.
Some were killed. All expected to
fall, and those who did not fall were
probably more surprised than the
spectators"
