sometimes we fail to recognize our old friends
of the boards because of some new names by
which they are known and this probably hap
pened with many when they read in The Star
of May 25, 1880, dispatch from California
which told of the tragic death at Laguna Beach
of Mrs. Guy Bates Post none other than Miss
Ritchie. who came here in THE Mandarin"
company.
According to the news item, jealousy over So
cial position was blamed by the authorities for
what believed to be the murder of Mrs
Doris Murray Palmer, an artist, formerly OF
Chicago and the suicide of Mrs. Post. The
bodies of the two women were found In Mrs.
Palmer's bungalow the latter being shot in the
back in way that would indicate self-destruc-
ton.
The press said that Mrs Post was Sc years
old which would have made her % in 1885,
She was married to Mr.. Post in 1916 and di-
vorced the latter part of 1929 She came to
Washington in 1900 in THE Three Little
Lambs" taking the part of Beatrice Jerome,
bank secretary, and at the close of the fol-
lowing year was Dora Selby, ward in cham
Gerry in Francis wilson's company then play
ing The Toreador" at the National Theater.
Christie Macdonald, William Broderick and
Joseph Coyne were wel-known members of the
cast. Col Theodore Roosevelt was then Presi-
dent and he and his family made up box
party on the evening of January 1, 1902.
[ lELEN REDMOND before referred to, also
took the part of Maraquita in 'The Idols
Eye" when our friend, William J. Dwyer and
Joseph B. Duckett were the lessees and mana
gers of the Columbia Theater. She also played
there in The Amer" and probably played in
other productions in Washington
Her career on the stage came through being
stage struck. a disease which has resulted in
the making Of many great actors. She was a
habitue of the matinee, and after some effort
finally secured an interview with one of the
managers of the BoStonians, arranging for
trial of her voice. She afterward acknowl-
edged she terribly frightened at meeting
the Sheriff of Nottingham" and Little John,'
but that she succeeded in successfully passing
through the ordeal. but was disappointed when
they compelled her TO go on the road with a
No. company She acknowledged the expert
ence justified accepting the opportunity, though
it was only a part in the chorus.
Soon however. she was transferred to a No.
troupe but still in the ensemble though this
did not last long. for when Frank Daniels
brought out his opera "The Idols Eye" she
and from that time on her success was as
sured.

his theatrical successes without associating

White Teeth turned
dull by film

CCTENCE has made a significant
- discovery. The cause of dull,
discolored teeth is found to be the
chief cause of serious tooth and
gum disorders. That cause is a
film that forms on teeth.
You can feel film with your
tongue a slippery coating. 1t
clings to teeth, absorbs stains from
food and smoking, and turns white
teeth "of color" Germs by the
millions breed in it, and they, plus
tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.

WASHINGTON, Apr. "a. (UP)
Representative Robert Doughton,
Democrat, North Carolina, chair
man of the House ways and means
committee, discussed the project
ed tobacco tax legislation with
the president today. Doughton
indicated he had urged a lower
tax on tobacco. The president
feels, it is understood, that these
taxes should not be reduced.
WASHINGTON, Apr. "a. (UP)
The agricultural adjustment adj
ministration yesterday abandoned
efforts to restrict production of
milk-most important American
farm product.
Dairymen themselves who re-
ceive S1,500,000,000 to $4,000
100000 annually or about one
fourth Of the total farm income
from the sale of their product,
rejected the AAA plan to pay
them upwards of S165,OOO,OOO
for production sacrifices. Farm
administrators kept their promise
not to impose the control plan on
the industry against it's will.
Administrator Chester C. Davis
expressed fear that lack of pro-
duction control would reduce the
effectiveness Of marketing agree
ments and federal licenses now
operating in about Fl commune
ties. Otherwise, however, he ex-
pressed no disappointment, stat
ing that he did not regard the ac-
ton as a setback to the AAA pro-
gram as a whole and that ne
would have been unwilling to adj
minister a plan hampered by an
unwilling industry.

(By Radio to United Press 1.-The
United States fleet of 100 vessels
steamed through Panama Canal
under bristling guns of the army
and under simulated wartime con-

change in plans announced by Adj

Commercial shipping was bar
red from the canal as the fleet
went through.
The "quick" transit order
brought walls of protest from
small merchants who had stocked
heavily for the expected two
weeks shore leave of the $4,000
sailors at Panama City. Society
leaders who had invited officers
to a grand ball last night likewise

BIGGEST ENTERTAINMENT
PROGRAM EVER STAGED HERE;
PLANNED BY COMMERCE BODY
C. of C. Reluctantly Extends Hollowel's Services With
Relief Office, and Votes for Main Street
Quarters for Tourist Season

Directors of the Chamber Of
Commerce, meeting Monday eve
ming, voted to open headquarters
for the organization at an early
date on Main street, instructed
the entertainment committee to
proceed with plans for the most
comprehensive program of sum-
mer entertainment ever under
taken here, decided to allow Sec
rotary Hollowell to continue as
government relief director in
Henderson county, with President
Strong in charge of the organiza-
ton activities during the season,
and acted on other matters Of
great Importance to the progress
of the community and section.
Headquarters of the organiza-
ton will remain in the city build
ing, but special tourist season Of
fees will be opened, as soon as
necessary arrangements can be
made, in the building on the east
side of Main street, between Fifth
and Sixth avenues, which was oc-
cupied several years ago by the
offices of the Lake Lure company.
This building will be fitted up for
tourist season headquarters, with
a number of features which will
make it most interesting and at
tractive.
The directors voted to extend
an invitation to the Carolina Mo
tor club to open an office in Hen
Jacksonville and will offer this or
ganiaation space in the Main
street building for its office.
The largest program of summer
entertainment ever undertaken
here was unanimously voted by
the directors. This will be in
charge of the Chamber Of COM
merce entertainment committee,
o. Y. Brownlee, chairman, and
will be announced in detail az
soon as the committee has per-
fected it's plans. :.
The entertainment program OF
the Chamber of Commerce is not
connected in any way with the
movement to introduce CONNER
cialized entertainment and sports
here on Sundays.
President Strong volunteered
his services to direct the office OF
the organization through the
spring and summer, to permit
Secretary Hollowell to continue as
relief director in the county. With
great reluctance the directors ac-
copied the arrangement, believing
| it will serve the best interests Of
the people of the entire county.
In this connection Mr.. Strong
reported on his winter trip to
Florida and other states, during
which he acted as advertising
agent for Hendersonville and this
territory. Mr.. Strong visited So
towns and cities in which he con.
tacted the commercial organiza-
tions, and % other towns which
have no chambers Of commerce.
In all of these towns and cities
Mr.. Strong talked with leading
citizens and distributed advertise

SECOND

SUNDAY HERE
Opposition Organizing and
Will Be Given Hearing
Wednesday
HOPING TO AVOID
HEATED DISCUSSION

Opposition to an ordinance au-
thorizing Sunday amusements and
baseball in Hendersonville was
rapidly taking definite form to-
day, although it appeared that
studied efforts were being made
to avoid heated discussions that
might prove seriously deterlmen-
tai to business, civic and rellgl-
Gus interests Of the city.
Announcement was made by
Mayor A. V. Edwards that the
hoard of city commissioners, which
passed the ordinance on first
reading late Saturday, had grant
ed an audience to the ministers
of the city for 5 D. m. Wednes-
day after request had been made
bv the Rev. Claude H. Moser,
president, and the Rev. Wike Lip
pard. secretary of the ministerial
association. While it had been
planned to bring up the ordl-
nance for second reading this
afternoon, further action on the
bill will be postponed until after
the ministers have been heard,
Mayor Edwards said. The con-
ference will not be open to any
one except the city officials and
ministers.
Meanwhile Mayor Edwards had
in his possession a copy Of reso-
lutions adopted Sunday by the
congregation of the First Baptist
church and it was assumed that
this also will be given considera-
ton by council when it meets to-
morrow.
c. OF e. KEEPING
GLANDS OFF"
At a meeting Of Chamber of
Commerce directors last night,
the Sunday amusement ordinance
was mentioned in connection
with the community's entertain
ment program for the summer
but discussion of the ordinance
was not invited. Milo w. Strong,
president, while favoring the or
dinance, had said previously tina
in view of conflicting opinions ne
believed the Chamber of Com
merce should have nothing to do
with opposing the ordinance or
urging its passage.
Referring to the proposed con-
ference of ministers and commits
sioners tomorrow, the Rev. Mr.:
Moser said today that he believed
this was the best method Of pre-
senting opposition to the move
ment to legalize Sunday amuse-
ments, particularly as a first
step. >,
"The commissioners" he said,
care members of our churches
and we believe they will be re-
ceptive to the arguments which
we will present against further
commercializing the Sabbath"
While the ministers had moth
ing further to say today, it was
learned from other sources that
if final enactment of the ordi-
nance is urged. the opposition
will exert additional pressure
