Pearl White will be seen in a new episode of her new se- rial “Plunder” which is becoming very popular with Palace patrons on account of the difficult stunts Miss White does throughout each new epi- sode. The Keith vaudeville bill fea- tures four very fine acts presenting ¥ithel Theodore in a musical act In which she plays the violin very weli; Ruth and Clifford are agcolored song and dance team that are well ro- ceived each show; Downey and Clar- idge offer a novelty offering that is quite sensational as entertaining; and The University Trio delight everyone with their excellent harmony singing, thir voices blending very well in a series of popular songs.

Mrs. Lou C. Stevens ,of New Haven, has announsed her candidacy for the office of Reporter General to the Smithsonian Institution on the ticket headed by Mrs. William Cumming Story, of New York. Mrs. Stevens is a member and ex-regent of the Mary Silliman ehapter, and has also served as vice-chairman of the na- tional committee of records of the society. She has been prominent in club and civic work in the state, and for thirteen years headed the Young Men' sChristian Association Auxiliary. In supporting Mrs. Story's plat- ferm, Mrs. Stevens, calls atténtion to the fact that it is particularly appro- priate for her ,as the granddaughter of the man who wrote “America,” to urge the type of patriotism for which Mrs, Story stands. She s she is| in sympathy with the platform adopt- ed by Mrs, Story which urges the Daughters: of the American I{r\nlu- tion to wage an active war against all forces which promote redicalism in any form-in the United ~States. I'he platform alro has planks dealing with the preservation of the constitu- tion of the United States, the problem of immigration, and the administra- tion of the society to further its | triotic work.
