BESSIE WYNN A
HAPPY ACTRESS
She Has Taken to Skating on Wild
wood Lake and Is More Pleased
Every Day That Manager Hopkins
Sought Her Out in New York
While afternoon crowds are above
tlie average, evening crowds continue
to tax the seatinji capacity at the Or
plieum theatre this week in the cam
paign to make as happy a Christinas as
possible for the Belgian war sufferers.
The actual work doue by the Rotary
Club, which is managing the week at
the playhouse, is showing up at the
box office.
Many tickets sold by th'e nieirfbers
of the club are being transferred for
seats. Every possible exchange agree
ment for tickets sold outside has been
made at the Orpheum so far and per
sons have been generally satisfied, but
ticket holders are askej to make reser
vations early for the remainder of the
week.
The cold weather is bringing a lot
of .patrons to the Orpheum for the en
tertainment but it is hard to believe
that in so doing is aiding a
worthy charity. Even the .boy who
buys a gallery seat is helping the
cause. Prospects are bright for a con
siderable sum to be turned into the
Belgian Relief Fund by the Women's
Home and Foreign Aid Committee,
through which committee the contribu
tion will be made.
Next to the managers of the week,
the happiest person is probably Bessie
Wynn, the dainty singer on the Orphc
um bill. She scanned the evening pa
pers and saw that skating at Wildwood |
Park was the prospect to-day and when J
*he verified it this morning she could
not be restrained. Skate she must
and skate she did. The managers were
considerably worriod this afternoon
that she woubl not turn up in time for
the matinee, but she allayed heir fears.
She is sincerely thankful that Man
ager Hopkins searched her out on his
booking trip to New York and is hav
ing as much fun here skating at Wild
wood Park and singing the Rotary C'lub
"anthem" as any other actor on tho
bill. Miss Wvnn will take good care|
that her booking agent includes Harris
burg on her itinerary next season.
