I t'hleken" matinee and night, under
. the management of John
J Cort. The dramatic version is by Mrs.
Wiggin and Kachel C'rothers, and is de
! scribed as a little comedy of "Home."
I There is at least as much charming sen-
I timent and humor in this play as was
found in the same author's previous
j famous work, "Rebecca of Sunnybrook
1
AMUSKMESTS
I'arm," and unusual interest centers in
the new offering. "Mother Carey" is
one of those sweet, delightful charac
ters that give unalloyed joy. Her chick
ens, in this instance, are her four chil
dren, Nancy. Gilbert, Kathleen and
l'eter.
Despite the severe cold weather,
large crowds were on hand at each
performance at the Majestic
l'he Theater yesterday. An excel-
Majcstlc lent bill of vaudeville, head-
Bill ed by a breezy musical com
edy offering, entitled "Polish
ing Papa," is appearing there, and
everyone who witnessed the show went
away pleased with what they had seen
and heard. Alvin and Williams, a clever
young couple, arc proving quite popu
lar, and their comedy singing, talking
and dancing act would put anyone in a
good humor. Completing the bill are:
Dorothy De Sehell and Company, pre
senting an excellent comedy sketch en
titled, "Hearts Are Trump;" Hudler,
Stein and Phillips, a trio of male sing
ers w ho furnish spendid harmony, and
\\ 111 and Kemp, in a novel comedy ac
robatic offering.
In the strangest of all Eastern coun
tries—Algeria and the desert beyond—
is placed Lenore Ul
l.rnore llrlch at rich's latest photo-
Itegeut To-tlay play, "The Road to
Love," now being
shown at the Regent.
Very strange events have, been re
corded on the film, but nothing could be
more extraordinary than the screen
story of "Hafsa," a celebrated beauty,
who lived her fateful life in this ex
otic land. Scenes of the desert, the
oasis and the city; of conflict, daring,
adventure, love and romance blend in a
most fascinating photoplay.
A gripping drama, founded on the
massacre of the English at Cawnpore
during the Sepoy rebellion in India, is
to bring the distinguished romantic
actor, Dou-Tellegen to the Regent to
morrow and Thursdav in the Jesse L.
Lasky production of "The Victoria
Cross."

known stars on the
Ethel Tin rrymore speaking stage, at
at the Colonial the Colonial Theater
to-day and to-mor
row, in a five-part play of a gill's love
and ambition, called "The White
Raven.'" A play that is filled with big
moments and beautiful scenes. The
picture opens in a mining camp in
Alaska, where, in the role of a dance
hall girl, she earns her living. In a
fit of despondency she gambles herself
against enough money to go to New
York, where she becomes famous as an
operatic star. The powerful climax
coVnes as a big surprise, and brings to
a close a picture, it is said, that will be
remembered for manv days.
MUNITION MEN
OFFER PLANTS
Washington. Feb. tl. Giant cor
porations which have waxed fat
through the manufacture of munitions
of war have comeforward with patri
otic offers to turn their plants over to
the United States government at any
time anw for any purpose, willingly
sacrificing the huge protits such as
they have enjoyed during _tlie last two
years.
Representatives of the Carnegie
Steel Company, the Bethlehem Steel
Company, the Remington Arms Com
pany and the Ford Motor Company
yesterday called upon Secretary of the
Navy aniels anil told him they stood
ready at a moment's notice to suspend
work and turn their entire capacity to
the manufacture of munitions for this
government.
James B. Bonner, vice-president of
the Carnegie Steel Company, told Sec
retary Daniels that his company would
expedite all government work and that
the navy could call upon them for
anything. The Secretary said:
"I told Mr. Bonner that I appre
ciated his offer, and all the more be
cause the Carnegie Steel Company has
been facilitating and expediting de
liveries of government work for
months." •
Bethlehem Ready to Expedite Shells
Eugene Grace, president of the
Bethlehem Company, made a similar
offer. He said his company has now
on hand 4,500 shells and is using its
best efforts to get them in shape for
the Navy Department. He offerod all
the facilities of the Bethlehem plant
at any time.
Henry Ford, the Detroit automobile
manufacturer, is also willing to do
everything in his power to help. He
said:
"I stand with the President, and in
the event of war will place our fac
tory at the disposal of the United
States government afid will operate
without one cent of profit. I will also
contribute my own time and work
harder than ever before."
Remington Anus Also in Lino
A representative of the Remington
Arms Company, the big concern that
has been turning out munitions for the
allies, called at the Navy Department
to tell Secretary Daniels that all th%
facilities anu equipment of his com
pany were at the disposal of the gov
ernment.
Besides these offers made personally
to the Secretary, many others from
large companies and of the same ehar
partment of taoird lotuntaoun tnouna
acter are coming In my mail. The
Department of Justice Is engaged in
framing a bill giving the rPestdent
authority in emergencies to comman
deer shipyards and munition plants,
but it is evident from the spirit shown
to date that even if this provision is
made a law it will not benecessary to
invoke it. Apparently, any private in
terest the government want can be
made for the asking.
Yaclit Owners and Idtbor Leaders
Private yacht owners have come i
forward with offers of their craft for
military purposes. It is stlaed that j
every private yacht that could be used I
In the event of war has been exam- I
Ined.
The American Federation of Labor
sent, word it would acquiesce in sus
pending the present law destricting
hours of labor on government con
tracts should the President desire.
Sharon Arms Plants
Offer Their Services
Sharon, I'a., Feb. .—ln event of
war two plants in Sharon will imme
diately begin furnishing munitions for
Uncle Sam. The Drlggs-Seabury Ord- i
nance Company has been making
shells for the Allies and is now turn
ing out rapid-fire guns for Ihe British
government. It employs 1,700 men.
Following the break between the
United States and Germany extra po
licemen have been put on guard at
