12 ELK MEMORIAL IS IMPRESSIVE Brotherhood Attends in Body Wonderful Service at the Majestic Theater Charity, justice, brotherly love and fidelity, the watchwords of the brotherhood of Elks were exempli fied yesterday in a most impressive memorial service for the dead which took place in the Majestic thea ater before an audience of two thousand. The program was so at tractive to the public In general that the place was crowded to the doors and it was impossible for late comers to pet scats. Many turned away without attempting to be accom modated. seeing the doorways and lobby overflowing. I'osslbly the most touching con tribution to the musical part of the service was the singing by the Men delssohn quartet of the beautiful song "Absent:" Sometimes, between long shadows on the grass, The little truant waves' of sunlight pass, My eyes grow dim with tenderness the while — Thinking I see thee smile. I And sometimes in the twilight gloom apart, The tall trees whisper heart to heart— From my fond lips the eager answers fall— Thinking I hear thee call. Just previous to this the Munici pal Orchestra had opened the serv ices, and following it liabbi Louis J. Haas delivered the invocatio i. In this ho prayed for the safety of the enlisted members of the order and for early and honorable end of the war. The opening of the lodge fol lowed, conducted by James L. Car roll, exalted ruler. Mrs. Emma Mausert Keeves sang "Judge Me Not O God," and the lodge con tinued the opening service, Chaplain I). D. Hammelbaugh reading the prayer. Following the singing of "These Are They" by Mrs. Lee S. Izer, the memorial exercises were held. Secretary Charles It. TVeber called the roll of the sixty deceased members and the various officials recited the purposes of the lodge as given in their ritual. After John D. Whitman had played as a violin solo "Thais," the oration of the day was delivered by the Hon. James J Fitzgerald, of Xew York, who extolled the virtues of departed members and described the characteristics which mark the Elk who follows closely the laws of his order. "Only the forgotten are really dead," he said. "The others live again as we remember them. The poorest man in all the world is he who practices not the simple humanity which should rule us all," continued the speaker. "There is no wealth of pursej no wealth of intellect; no wealth of brawn. There is only the wealth that comes from character—the true evidence of a man's soul." Preceeding the closing ceremony of the lodge the quartet sang "Cross ing the Bar," and the audi.-mce joined in singing "Atild Lang Syne" at the conclusion of the service. The Rev. Harry B. King offered the clos ing prayer and benediction. Tuskegee Singers Please Wesley Church Members in Beautiful Program Old Southern melodies were woven into one harmonious program by the Tuskegee singers at the Wesley A. M. E. Church yesterday afternoon. Southern lullabies and songs, recita tions from the works of the famous negro poet. Paul Laurence Dunbar, and excerjjts from the masters, were included in the program. The Tuskegee Sinners are students of Tuskegee Institute, the famous institution of which Dr. Booker T. Washington was the president for many years. Their voices blend beautifully and their readings were marked by beauty of thought and expression. Among the interesting features of the program were selections from tlie works of Paul Laurence Dunbar, whose writings have endeared him to the hearts of many Americans. No program in which Southern sing ers take part is complete without some mention of Mr. Dunbar, who, like Booker T. Washington, has been an important factor in the uplift of the colored race. The Tuskegee Singers sang at the Fifth Street Methodist Church last evening. Train Crews Want 40 Per Cent Raise Chicago, Dec. 3.

Douglas ralrbanka is appearing in hia greatest success, "Reaching for the Moon." It is said to be lull of the old Fairbanks humor —"pep"—stunts thrills ruil or everything. At frequent intervals during the plot he has plenty of chance to risk his own neck and endanger the nocks of others after the manner his public has come to expect of him. An Italian city, with canals and gondolas, was reproduced in California for some of the scenes. It is said to be a picture that all Fairbanks' admirers will want to see. 1^ ORPHEUM "Out Somewhere" Benefit Robert Disbrow Lloyd Sunshine Society, Friday, December 7, 8:15; Saturday, December 8, 8:15; Saturday mati nee, 2:15.

Jimmie Hodges and Jean Tynes, in their litis version of their big musical sensation, "Pretty "Pretty Ilnliy" Baby," opens a nt the Mnjextic three-day engage ment at the Majes tic to-day. This is the biggest tab loid that was ever presented on the Majestic stage. In producing "Pretty Baby" it requires' seven mammoth scenes which, in two acts, runs from i Eong Island to China and back to Broadway byway of Honolulu. Al most everything in the way of songs is woven into the play. Jimmie Hodges is the principal "cut up" and also pro ducer of the clever coinedy. Mr. Hodges has engaged a chorus thta is | not only strong on good looks, but I v. lio can sing and dance us well. Spec- I ialties by clever vaudeville artists, a cast of singing and dancing comedi | ans of more than ordinary ability, make "Pretty Baby" an evening'# en- I tertainment well worth while. | "The Eternal Mother," with superb Ethel Barrymore as the star, will be shown at the Co [ It'lliel Barrymore lonial Theater to |atl he t (ilon in I day and to-rnor J row. The picture j has that sublime appeal, the power of J mother love. In this Metro play, | t.dapted from Sidney McCall's novel, "Red Horse Hill," the noble qualities of Ethel Barrymore, artist and wo | man, shine forth as they have never ] before had an opportunity to do in a |pioduction either of stage or screen. I In the role of Maris, a young woman j who has married a man who turns out to be a worthless drunkard, her one absorbing passion is her greut love for j her child Felice on whom she lavishes ; a wealth of mother love and affec tion. Miss Barrymore, in private life j Mrs. Russell Colt, is the mother of three beautiful children. Her appcar lances with children in Metro pictures I have been a revelation of her love for little ones, and the "selection of this star to depic*. the heroine in "The Internal Mother," was a happy one. ; Miss Barrymore is ideal as Maris. For to-day and the next two davs, the management of the Victoria take great pleasure in announe- Viotoria ing another of tin- official Theater war pictures called "The Retreat of the Germans at I the Battle of Arras." In this picture I one may actually see the things about which future generations will read ci ncerning the many brave and dar- I Ing deeds which took place at this I now recorded as one of the world's | greatest battles. Here one is shown I the immensity of modern warfare and serves but to give an idea of what this terrible war means when one con siders that there are five or six great | points from which to view this su | preme fight for the democracy of the | world.

And DOIIKIIIK whenthe pretender to Fill rim ilk* the throne objects to in "lleiiehing his occupancy and lor the Moon" hires assassins to re move the new mon arch, who is a determined and ath letic young man. there is apt to be considerable excitement. This is one or the threads of the new Arteraft photoplay by Douglas Fairbanks, "Reaching for the Moon," shown at the Regent Theater to-day, to-morrow and Wednesday, which teems with sensational inciilents and laughable comedy. Douglas Fairbanks fairly revels in the part of Alexis, a youth occupying a Position in a button factory, until he discoverel he was the miss ing heir to an European throne. Art craft has been lavish with this pro duction, which is crammed full of humorous situations and thrilling in cidents. The adventures of Alexis are extremely trying, and Fairbanks is afforded ample opportunity of display ing the extraordinary athletic skill for which he is noted. Says Woman Suing For Support is Not His Wife Denying that he had ever married the woman who appeared against him in court to-day to press a nonsup port charge. Counsel for Thomas E. r orsythe asked the court not to grant the order for this reason. During the hearing it was brought out that for the last few years the couple had been living together, ap parently as husband, and wife, that r orsythe had introduced the woman as his wife, had written to her and addressed her as such, and had not denied that a marriage took place. On the stand the woman said thev had been to ITagerstown and were niar i led. giving as evidence a marriage certificate. Oeorge Kunkel and Robert Stucker, counsel for 1-orsythe, had an interesting artru inent over the legality of the woman's claim and whether she was actually married to the man. The court final ly decided to have the case listed for argument before action will be taken on the nonsupport charge.
