One who has a naughty reputation in this respect has left the comedienne now play ing opposite him so shorn of oppor tunities to -amuse the audience that one night she was overheard mut tering bitterly: “It’s lucky he’s (not a ventrilo quist. He’d never give the dummy the answers."—New York Herald. Sufficient Cause. Mrs. Van Ripper: Yiu’re looking seedy, my dear. What’s worrying you?

In that sentence is revealed one reason why many daughters have left their family roofs and struck out for them selves. • ,This unusual photodrama reveals with the cleverness of a searchlight not only the reasons why girls leave home, but it also points in a direct manner to a solution of the problem which many girls and their parents are called upon to face at some time or another. As to the story itself it is simple and powerful. It deals with two girls who typify and represent all daughter?-who have grown to wom anhood. . ,The unfairness and nar row-minded actions of one parent drive one girl forth into the world. The over.ninclulgenpe epd. careless neglect of another parent is the cause of the second girl’s leaving home. - ■>, ;..,f The paths of the two girls cross and it is a junction that has a far reaching effect which is worked out in a sequence of scein.es that does not let the interest lag for a min- i ute. “Why Girls Leave Home” is declared above all to be one of the j cleanest and most thoroughly satis-1 fying entertainments the silver sheet has offered in some time. LASSES WHITE TO GIVE STREET PARADE AND BAND CONCERT. A special feature is be : ng made of the street parade which is given by Lasses White’s minstrels this season. It will occur at 3 o’clock on Tuesday and will be lead by the only Lasses and participated in by the entire company. The band will be under the leadership of Prof. Ernest Hatley who is reputed to be the foremost minstrel band leader. There will also be a band concert at 7:30 Tuesday night in front of the Rylander theatre, on which oc casion a rare musical treat will be given. A welcome feature of Lasses White’s m’nstrels is its vocal con tingent which is of a high ordei unusual in minstrelsy. As in past season this organization has the benefit of the services of “Nate” Talbot whose knowledge as har mony arranger makes it certain that all numbers in which music figures will be presented in most acceptable manner. As in the past the Blackville quartet of which Mr. Talbot is a member continues to be one of the hits of the bill. Associated with Talbot are Kerman Schultz, Nor man Brown and “Jimmie” McDon ald. Other important singers are Grover Schepp, Frank Long, Bob Manpin, Rfaxwell Gordon, Sam Deatherage, Sam Puckett and the Tetrazini of Minstrels —George Wil _ • _________ - Who it coming?
