~ By DUDLEY GLASS.
This is the day—and night—-that|
we get a chance to even things up
with the actors. !
Whenever we've wanted to pull off
h charity stunt for an orphanage or
S give a big show for some ;u:hhvl
« movement, or anything like . that,
where did we go for help? |,
To the theater manager, who will-|
ingly lent us an act or two from his|
vaudeville bill. i
* But who did the hard work? |
The actors and the actresses, nfi
course. There was no extra pay for|
them. They play at the prisons and|
) in the hospitals and they helped \\ml!
the war work drives. And thousands
of them put on the khaki and \\u]\l!
overseas to fight, or to work with the |
Red Cross, or to travel all over|
France, entertaining soldiers in the|
Y. M. C. A. huts. |
But when did we ever have a
chance to show our appreoiation? |
Never before. Perhaps, never again.|
But we have it this afternoon at 2:30{
o’clock, and again tonight—at. a|
“minute past midnight.” ’
ACTORS FUND DAY. |
For this is Actors’ Fund Day, u;x!
over the United States, when every|
fman and woman in the amusement]|
«¥orld is giving time and talent to|
help the fund. TMhe public isn’t asked |
to give anyvthing—only to buy 'l,
ticket to ashow well worth the price. |
The afternoon show is “Pollyanna,”!
me of the sweetest little comedies
that ever went out on the road.|
Everybody in the company and every !
hody connected with the :\:laan
Theater—manager, musicians, stage-|
hands, ushers, ticket-sellers—con-|
tributes his services. There is m:‘
house rent to be taken .out. BEvery

the fund. The tickets are eve
cheaper than usual, for the war tax
has been taken off by the government
for this one benefit.
The night show is the “Midnight
Revue,”” presented by the local
vaudeville and movie managers for
the benefit o fthe Actors’ Fund. It
really will begin at 11 o'clock, so you
can leave the night show at any
other house and go directly to the
Auditorinum if you prefer, A big fea
‘ture picture, never shown before, will
open the bill. And the “big surprise”
will begin at “One Minute After
Midnight.” -
: " TWENTY ACTS.
- Twenty vaudeville acts will be nre
sented, and will be drawn from the
bills at the Grand and Lyric, those
which have arrived for next week,
and several which were brought here
especially for the occasion. The or
chestra will include 756 musicians from
various theaters. The committee
announces that several noted moving
picture stars are expected to arrive
in time to make personal appearances
on the stage, The show will continue
two hours or more. The only local
act will be the pianologue by Paul
Doneho, president of the Federation
of Musicians and widely known as
the “blind coroner.”
Tickets may be had almost any
where—at the theater and movie
ticket offices, or from the women's
committees on the streets and in thel
office buildings. The price is one
dollar—no war tax, no reserved seats.!
The money obtained today, from
all over the United States, is expected
to provide for the Actors’ Fund sos
America a sum sufficient to maintain
and greatly enlarge the home fnr(
destitute players now conducted on
Long Island, and to endow the work
of caring for unfortunate actors and
actresses all over the country. The
fund was founded 40 years ago by
Edwin Booth, Lester Wallack and
their associates, and thig is the first
occasion upon which It ever has
ever asked the assistance of the pub-
Ho.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.—"1 look to the
women to support the Republican
party in our determination to stem
the tide of Socialism,” said Will H.
Hays, chairmhan of the Republican
National Comm@ittee, at a dinner
given last night in his honor by the
Republican Women's State Executive
Committee,
“1 know,” he continued, *“that
women in their first national ex
pression of the power of franchise
will show their innate and continuing
reverence for that on which rests the
‘holiest things in life—law and order
‘and progressive, stable government.
As it is only in security and peace
‘that women can have their best life,
'most certainly they will rally to
‘those principles which guarantee the
limugrn_\» of our national institutions.
. 'l do not ask that all women be
come Republicans. To which party
'you belong is of less consequence
than that you belong to Ssome party,
‘that you seek for the truth, find it
and then act and act continually, I
'would rather a woman join with our
opponents than belong to no party.”

old Whisky Keg
! - s
~ In Albany Twice
ALBANY, Dec. 4.—Three hundred
dollars a quart for whisky is the
price two Albany men unwittingly
paid a distiller who claimed to have
several ten-gallon kegs of double-run
whisky. The operator announced his
willingness to sell the booze at S3OO
a keg, and this price was acceptable
to the Albany men who were to meet
him a few miles from the city, When
they met at the appointed place, the
Albanyv men decided to make an ine
vestigation to see that they were not
being vietimized. They drew off a
quart from the first keg and it sam
pled all right. The keg was shaken
and the sound of liquid inside con
vincéd them that there was more of
the same Kind. The second keg was
subjected to the same test and given
an o, k. Paying the $360 apiece, the
men returned to Albany congratulat
ing themselves on being able to get
guch a high grade of ‘liquor at $7.60
a quart. Taking it homd, they found
that each keg contained but a little
more than a quart of whisky, which
filled the small ‘space above a false
bottom, and that the remainder of
the keg was filled wfih water,
