Brcnnen; Big Show
Monday Night
Harrlsburg tight fans are in line
for a big tistic battle. Johnny Gill,
who has been meeting all comers,
according to tight rules, making his
weight and meeting other require
ments, may get a chance at Mike
O'Dowd, the champion. This is not
idle talk. There are clubs in the
east dickering with Gill for a light-
Manager Joe Barrett is willing,
but not being in a position to offer
O'lJowd his price, will accept an
eastern offer unless local hackers are
willing to get interested. Several
Steelton and Harrisburg fans, have
already offered to put up any lor
feit money necessary. There are
others who will do their bit in mak
ing up a purse sufficient to bring
O'Dowd to Harrisburg.
To Jlisrt Itreimen
One important fnetor in making
this bout is a requirement that Gill
meets "Knockout" Itrennen, of Buf
falo. Negotiations are also on for
this battle and the date will he an

star show. The hill will include:
"Billy" Angelo, of York, and

Tlu-re Are Sable Coats at SBO,-

as he will, the plane carries him on
to heights unknown, and Muttering
check stubs till the air.
After the eggs at twelve cents for
each shining sphere and the butter
at eighty-three cents a pound have
been put away in the family safe,
the "lady of the house." as the book
.agent calls her, may let her fancy
i wander to the fascinating realm of
things to wear. Behold .the expect
ant purchaser wending her way
: among the glittering booths of the
; Fifth avenue shops.
An Encounter in Coats
The first encounter is with a
saleswoman in the coat department.
"A coat? What price?" Mrs. Pur
chaser knows that things cost more
than they used to in the good old
days, so she bravely puts what site
considers a liigh limit—-"about a
hundred." The sales person loudlj
inquires of a friend —"Say, Sadie,
where are the cheap coats." That
sales person was nut being tactful,
but she was voicing it solemn truth.
"Cheap at a hundred." The shop
per weakly turns away to call the
ambulance.
But where there are prices liter*
must lie some one to pay them, or
what would bo the use of having
■tiny? The managers of the Fifth
avenue shops confirm this thought
and say that they have no difficulty
in disposing of the most highly
priced articles. Take a sable coat
lor example—a wrap of beautifully
matched Russian sable costs,sßo,-
000. Perhaps >'ou don't rare for fur
coats —they are so warm and heavy
—but now about something in a
scarf for the neck? One little dark
brown animal of the ar.stooratic
sable family will require a check' for
$2,000.
Stocking* $250 "a Pair
Stockings which used to he just
something to wear inside your shoe-,
are something else again when they
cost $250. The manager of one shop
rather apologized for not being able
to show something better. "But next
week there will come from Paris a
pair of I.lack lace stockings which
can tie bought for $500."
A handsome sleeping garment, a
very inadequate and beautiful af

considered a Hit. M'lnsy if the price is
less than $5 a yard. But it may com
fort some suffering soul to know
that gum can still be purchased at

to the court: "My poor client is lit

NO ARMISTICE
WITH ANARCHY
Governor Urges Common
wealth to Guard Against
Extravagance and Waste
"We have not signed any armis
tice with extravagance, waste, idle
ness, ignorance and anarchism, Our
peace offensive against this army of
internal enemies must go on cease
lessly. To relax our vigilance, to
demobilize our habits of thrift and
to fall into the ways of the Prodigal
Son will be an unhappy way of toy
ing with our own ruin."
This was the statement of Gov
ernor William C.•Sproul, mado dur
ing a visit to the Government Sav
ings Division of the Philadelphia
Federal Keserve Bank, .iust previous
to his departure for Hot Springs.
The Governor is intensely inter
ested in this governmental depart
ment, an outgrowth of the War
Savings Stamp project, now incor
porated with the Federal Reserve
Bank as a permanent establish
ment for the inculcation of thrift
and the encouragement of saving by
s'ule of interest-bearing govern-
inont securities in sums of from 25
cents to SIOOO.
Inspecting the reorganized sav
ngs division with George E. Lloyd,
Third Federal Reserve District Di
rector of Savings, Governor Sproul
expressed heartiest approval of the
thrift organization now bound tip
closely with thtt State's school system.
State Co-operates.
"You may eotitit on the fullest
co-operation of the Stale with the
Fedeial Government in your cam
paign." lie told Director Lloyd,
and continued:
"The high prices of commodities,
the lack of material to meet the
demand, conservation of all the re
sources as against wholesale waste,
the safeguarding of our institutions
and upbuilding of a good and law
abiding army of citizens among both
our native and foreign-born people
-are some of the fundamental prob
lems which challenge the best
thougl.it of every public-spirted in
dividual in this Commonwealth.
"Involved though these problems
may be, the remedy for them lies
with us, and we have the power
to apply it. We must, one for all
quit living in a fool's paradise, and
get back to habits of thrift and in
dustry—those virtues which built up
this Nation and made it great and
prosperous. Our greatest weakness
at the present moment is a sort of
sliiftlessness and a disposition to quit,
the job upon any excuse."
"The future may have grim days
in store for us. We. must get the
habit of putting aside part of out
daily and weekly earnings. Wo
must teach out- children not only
how to save money and spend it
wisely, but also to train them to
become messengers of patriotism,
of Americanism to the homes of
the foreign-born.
"Tn this way we cab etfeetHxely
grapple with the problem of high
cost of living, wastefulness and
shiftless ways of conducting our
affairs."
Work in Schools.
With enthusiastic sanction of .Dr.
Thomas E. Finegan, State Superin
tendent. of Schools, who during the
war was director of the Savings
Division of the New York Federal
Reserve, Director Lloyd and Federal
Reserve Governor Passmore are in
almost every case appointing county
superintendents of schools as
thrift chairmen. A plan lias been
put into operation whereby every
child is given official government
recognition, "a commission in the
thrift army," for distinguished serv
ice on the field of saving.
A handsome engraved certificate,
bearing the seal of the Treasury
Department, is awarded to every
pupil in t lie State and private
schools who shall purchase at least
one $5 Government Saving Stump
and join a Government Savings
Society, pledged systematically to
save each week, and invest his ot
her savings in Thrift Stamps.

MAJESTIC BILL
PLEASES MANY
Vaudeville Program Is One of
tlie Host to Be Presented
This Season
Majestic audiences found plenty i
to enjoy and little to criticise on the I
vaudeville prof,-rani for the first half!
of the week. It is one of the best I
to be offered this season at the Wal-j
nut street theater.
Ziska and King are first on the
list with some tricks, but the mu
sician's helper sives one or two of
these away and this takes away some
of the novelty. 1!y adding one or
two illus.ous to their program
these entertainments could give a
line vaudeville act in magic.
_Fonl and Truly, as "Chums in
Vaudeville," made a big hit last
night. This is a man and dog act
and the feats by the two trained dogs
cause plenty of laughter and ap
plause. The animals eertainly are
well trained and the "rnlmic" stunts
are the best proof of this.
liOroy and Mablo Hartts present a
song program as "Love in the
Southland." They open with the
famous "Springtime" waltz song
from the musical play "May-time."
This is followed by another good
number then by parts of some old
time favorites. Those who wotdd
enjoy hearing duets of "Kentucky
Homo," "Love's Old Sweet Song,"
"Carry Me Heck to Old Virginny."
"Dixie" and others, should hear the
Hartts. These songs fire not heard
now in vaudeville but with two good
singers, somehow they seem to sound
just a bit better than the jny.z stuff
which usually is the feature of Ma
jestic acts. These entertainers close
with Arditi's "The Kiss," as a duet.
Morgan and Kloter in songs and
repartee are good and have the
honors for the comedy end of the
bill. Their songs are enjoyed and
at the first show last night tliey were
recalled for an encore.
Cal Dean and Girls, in "Frolick
and Fun" close with songs, dances
and a comedy sketch centered
around the arrival of Cul at the
apartment of a college chum who
had turned it over to some "co
eds" during his absence.

A YOUNG I.AI)V INSIDE
C'un a beautiful young lady attired
in a silk "nightie" walk in and out
of the apartment of staid old bachelors
and veiling married men at midnight
and still be nice? That's a question
which you will have to settle within
yourself during the action of three
uproariously, screaming acts of "She
Walked in Her Sleep." which comes
to the Orpheum Thursday night.
The play is from tbo pen of Mark
Swan and is sul;J to he the funniest
farce ever written by an American
author. A. S. Stern and Company in
association with George Broadhurst
lias mounted the play in lavish style,
in fact it is a sAyle show combined
with laugh hysteria. The gowns are
said to surpass anything which has
been seen on tlie present, day stage
and the majoritjy of which are direct
Parisian Importations.
Arthur Aylsworth, whose remark
able work in "Very Good Kddie" and
"Over Night" again demonstrates
that he is an actor of note and his
old Weber and Fields training stands
out in remarkable contrast to the
acting of the newer age.
Miss Eva Williams is the other co
star and is the most famous slavey
actress on the stage to-day. Iler old
vehicle, "Skinny's Finish," in which
the team of Williams and Tucker
was headlined, is one of the funniest
skits ever presented and headlined
over the Keith and Orpheum circuits.
After playing the high-class vaude
ville circuits, the act was booked for
iwn vears straight in London, and
this Is her return to the legitimate
in the original role of Mamie Ousstdy
and we may look forward to a dra
matte treat.
