REVIEW OF
THE MAJESTIC
A Bill Without Ups and Downs,
Evenly Good, Clean
and Clever
If the hill at the Majestic for the last j
half of the week Isn't the best of the !
season, It runs such a close second
that it wouldn't be safe to take a vote.
Provided, of course ( one cares for vau
deville. there Isn't a thing to which
even the most particular could take
exception. The bill starts well with a j
comedy acrobatic act by Martinetti and
Sylvester, which serves to introduce,
not only good comedy but a number of !
the more difficult tumbling accomplish- |
inents. Next on the bill is Josephine i
Lenhart, with decidedly unique and !
cleverly done imitations of Belle Baker |
and Harry Lauder. Frank and Eldri
Fisher present a "different" comedy
sketch called "Perseverance." which is
certainly unique, not only in presenta
tion but in theme and variety. Moore, i
Gardner and Rose are a clever singing ;
trio, and add a little dash and spice to
the bill with harmony and wit; easily
their best number is a genuinely
screaming parody on the Miserere from
"Trovatore." The bill is completed
with a small-sized symphony program
by the Sixteen Navassar Girls, under th»
leadership of Augusta Dial. This is
purely a musical act from an orchestra
of fourteen pieces, the work of which
is truly masterful and pleasing to the
highest degree. Orchestral numbers
are supplemented with a charming
sextut of poise and harmony. And what
is all too rarely lost, is given to the
audience in a beautifully done flute
solo. A spectacular feature of the act
is the closing number, "The Anvil
Chorus." from "Trovatore," when four
girls on a darkened stage play the an
vils to the accompaniment or the or
chestra, the sparks flying from the an
vils by means of an electric device.

IODINE, DEADLIEST OF BKRJI
Kill, Kits, NEW FA MI I. V REMEDY
State College, Pa., June a. —lodine as
an antiseptic is recommended for a
place in the medicine closet of every ,
household by Dr. VV. E. Forsythe, head j
of the health service of the Pennsylva- 1
nia State College. He urges its use fori
| first treatment of all kinds of skin
I abrasions, saying that physicians now!
| recognize iodine as one of the best ma -
I terials known for preventing infection I
J and blood poison 1 ng.
! According to l>r. Fprsythe, In the |
European war iodine is now being used j
1 for wounds almost to the exclusion of
j other antiseptics. A single shipment
| of 30,000 pounds of the pure crystal was
sent to one government for hospital
j use. he said.
j "lodine should be useful around the
I barn," he added, "for dressing wounds
lon livestock. It is especially valuable
!to prevent development of lockjaw
] from wounds containing stable and
] barnyard dirt."
Dr. Forsythe advised using the tine- |
ture of lodine at one-half the usual ;
i strength, i. e., five per cent, or weaker.

should be arranged in groups of certain
numbers, and the groups should bo
massed according to the effects pro
duced by foliage, flower or fruits, as
wrll as by height. The same scheme is
recommended for beds and borders of
flowering plants, with the exception
that especial attention be given to color
and time of blooming.
Unless tree masses are desired only
long-lived trees should be planted, and
for these plenty of room for growth
should be allowed. Shade trees should
be placed where shade is needed, and
should unite with the shrubbery to
form and frame distant vistas and pic
turesque effects.
