For sh¢ ncied she had heard faintly the wail of a saxophone. T e Ray took off his mask and wiped his forehead. It was a golder mask, designed especially for the Golden Symphony Eight, the jazz band of the Golden Dollar club, latest and smartest of New York’s night clubs. “These things are hot,” he grum- bled. “If we didn't come out here every now and then for a breath- ing space, I'd suffocate.” “You're right there,” said Bill Foster, looking unusually plump in an evening suit of metal cloth with purple satin facings, “but you've got to admit this crazy stunt has been a success, rigging -us up in {these golden tuxedos with masks to hide our fatal beauty from the public gaze.

' Those were days when he felt ‘ esperately lonely for her—when e doubted whether any recogni- ‘ion was worth the risk he was " aking in sacrificing her love.

Now Bill arose from the lounge, hrew his cigarette on the floor. +'Come on;, fellows, we'd best Qe get- ing back.” Bill led the way and as they rouped back onto the stage they nade a truly extraordinary and mposing sight. Their metal eve- 1ng suits glittered like beaten gold .mder the krilliant electric lights; i’heir golden masks were comic and Dizarre, and their music was guar- anteed to make a paralyzed man get up and wiggle! Small wonder the Golden Dollar was packed from theatre closing time till dawn. ‘As for the club itself, it was oné gasp of wonderment. Vivid golden trimmings were set against a back- ground of rich royal purple; thou- sands of golden dollars were plas- tered everywhere, on the ceilings, on the walls, on the backs of the Of course there was a cabaret performance, twice nightly, the ar- tists being the foremost starg of the day.

BAUER ADDRESSES HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS In an address before the Douglas high school students yesterday af- ternoon, Rev. P. E. Bauer of the Congregational church, described three methods of mental growth. Food, exercise and air are not only necessary to physical growth but also to intellectual development, he said, “Books are intellectual food,” said Mr. Bauer. “Fobd for. intellect is thought, Schools furnish an in- tellectual atmosphere.” ¢ Mr. Bauer said that some movies provide food for thought while oth- ers are “sentimental mush.” ? “If you want to learn good Eng- lish, associate with the people whg use it,” was Mr. Bauer's sugges- tion. “One cannot learn in thg wrong kind of atmosphere. = The brain, like the body, only grows by exercise and food.” : While the chaplain of Oregon penitentiary, Mr. Bauer discovered ithat nine tenths of the delinquent! boys came from.broken homes. The chief contributing ‘cause for their crimes was bad company. In conclusion Mr. Bauer affirmed that “we grow in spiritual quali- ties of hope, faith and love, by food, air and exercise.” .

S T O BASEBALL COMEDY ON WAY “Take out the big bum!” “Kill the umpire!” “Come on kid, knock a homer!” “There goes the old ball game!” These, and all the other expres- sions which = make baseball the game it is, are included in Wallace Beery's Paramount starring coms |ady, “Casey at the Bat,” which ar- irives at the Liberty Theatre Sun- day. Beery, perhaps the actor to have made the most progress during the past 12 months, due to inimitable performances in Behind the Front, We're in the Navy Now, and Old Ironsides, enacts the small town junk man who suddenly finds him- self catapulted to fame and for- tune when a big league baseball |scout signs him to a Giant contract. Ford Sterling enacts Beery's 'Co)umbus by “discovering” him.
