ALL THREE LOCAL THEATERS OFFERING HIGH CLASS ATTRACTIONS — “ONE CLEAR CALL” AT PALACE— AND LYCEUM WILL FEATURE “BOUGHT AND PAID FOR” — OTHER NEWS OF THEATRICAL WORLD ‘Wha: Dicky's Telegram Caused Madge to Do LAllian's little exhortation, despite her reference to my polse, spurred my numbed as 1 mechanically obeyed her and read the telegram whose words had so frightened me. It was dated the night before from Caldwin, N. Y., a place of which I never had heard, “Come at once.” it said. “Disre- gard all newspaper storfes; can ex- plain fully.

Those Newspapers ! . There followed the letters of a fool- {sh little code love message which Dicky used over the telephone in the hectic days of our courtship. It is an obligation of honor with us that when either recites that to the other, for- #veness must follow. Then there came minute directions for reaching * Caldwin, and Dicky’s signature. I am not quite sure of my first re- actions to this astonishing telegram. I know that for a time, which seemed endiess, I read and re-read the ap- peal my husband had sent me, but with eyes that saw nothing. There ‘was no sound from Lilllan—and when my own voice, hoarse and querulous, fipally broke the silence, I started like & spurred horse. “Coldwin,” sald absurdly. heard of Caldwin.” ~“It's up in the district between the Catskills and the Adirondacks,” Lil- llan replied, and her voice was as calm and matter-of-fact as if we haa been planning an ordinary week-end trip. “It's a long day's journey from here, however."” " “It will be .no day's journey for me !"« I stormed, all my outraged sensibilities breaking at once into fenzy. “I am not going one step up there. I don’t care what happens. He can just get himself and Miss Foster out of any scrape he's gotten into. . And I don't ever—ever—ever want to hear his name again!” I sprang from my seat, rushed to the window and pulled the drapery back of me ostrich-like, as I “I never Gossip’s Corner Plaid Velvets b Plaid velvets and velveteens are popular this season and are made into art costumes, usually on the popu- r Russian lines.

She evidently had not plannea to go very far from me, and her an- swer was as prompt as if she had expected the question. “I'll get them at once,™ moving down the hall. Madge's Indecision “Bring them to my room,” I called softly after her, then picking up the telegram which I had crumpled and flung to the floor, T crossed the hall to my own room, and spread the rumpled sheets out again neting the minute directions Dicky had given for the journey he wished me to make. One part of my brain was in hot re- bellion, the other was coolly, me- chanically. estimating the task which lay before me if I dectded to grant Dicky's request. I took a local time. table from my desk and compared it methodically with the directions my husband had sent me. The first train by means of which I could make con- nections with the train for Caldwin would leave Bridgehampton in fonr hours, and T would bes compelled to spend part of the night in a sleeping car. The waves of my anger and humil- fation which had receded a bit rolled high again, and broke oyer me. “I will not go!" I spoke the words aloud over and over again, but even as I said them I found myself going swiftly from closet to dresser drawers, and putting into a bag the things I would need for a short stay in a strange place. It was as if something outside my own volition was driving me to a course ot conduct which I neither desired nor approved. Lillan’s foosteps outside the door brought my activities to a sudden stop. I thrust the bag benind the bed, closed the dresser, and as she came in I faced her, feeling much as might a child already beaten thor- oughly, who sees another whipping in sight. she sald, childhood.

Agnes Ayres, Betty Compson at Lyceum Again this coming week the Ly- ceum theater will" offer an excellent array of high class, top-notch vaude- ville, coupled with two great pictures. The flve act vaudeville program is changed on Monday and Thursday, while the first half of the week the photodrama feature is to be the Wil- llam De Mille Production, ‘“Bought and Pald For,” That for the last half is Betty Compton and Tom Moore in “Over the Border.” Tomorrow night's program, a double feature one, brings James Kirkwood in “A Wise Fool” and Dorothy Dalton in “Be- hind Masks."” The vaudeville for Monday, Tues- day and Wednesday brings vaude- ville's greatest novelty, “Memories of France.” This is not a picture, but a realistic, mechanical reproduction of great scenes and battles of the war.
