• 'Sweethearts"
There is much of interest to the lover!
of comic opera in the coming of charm
ing Christie Mac-Donald to the Majestic:
on 'Friday evening. May 28. in the
opera. "Sweethearts." in addition to
the assurance of the rich entertainment
always carried with the announcement J
of Miss Ma. Donald's appearance, it is.
doubly gratifying to know that the mu-!
sic of "Sweethearts" was written -by
that master composer. Victor Herbert,
easily the most famous American in the
world of music. Those who have fol-:
lowed Mr. Herbert's career have no I
hesitancy in saying that the score of
"sweethearts"' is the best of the;
thirty-four operas he has written.!
Wherever' Miss Mac Donald has appeared
"Sweethearts" has been welcomed as
a return to the better things of true
light opera. It is free from slap-stick j
methods of fun-making, although it is
ludicrously comical. iMiss McDonald is
surrounded by one of the largest organ
izations which has toured this country

Willard Is a Mystery
Willard. who began a three days' I
engagement at the Colonial theatre
yesterday proved an enigma that so far
no one in Harrisburg has been able
to solve. Willard claims to have suf
ficient control over the muscles of his
body to grow in height at will. Wheth
er he does it by controlling hie muscles '
or any other way. he does it. He uses
no screen, but stands in full view of
his audience and as the bewildered I
folks look on in amazement he calmly 1
begins to rise until he toners almost
head and shoulders over the original
Willard who stood in the game shoes i
a moment before. The Colonial the- 1
atre has issued a general invitation to
j physicians to be present to-night and
|to go on the stage and study this j
strange nun as he does his work. Wil
lard says that physicians all over the
! country have examined him, but up to
the present time no one has offered any
explanation. Willard himself says it is
i simply the natural consequence of
practice. He has been for «evenl years
trying to get his muscles to perform I
as he wanted them to, and at last he
, has succeeded. Willard is only one of j
three very 'good acts on fhe Colonial's !

POSTAL SAVINGS BY MAIL
Extension of Service Permits All Per
sons Now to Be Depositors
Every person in the United States
ten years old or over may open an ac
count 'in a postal savings bank after
July 1, according to an instructive
leaflet on the Postal Savings System
just issued by Postmaster General Burl
eson. This important extension of the
j service will be made possible by per
mitting persons living in communities
so sparsely settled a$ not to justify the
'Assignation of their local postoffices as
regular postal savings banks to open
accounts by mail.
Governor Doekery, Third Assistant
Postmaster General, who has direct
supervision of postal savings, was so
impressed by appeals from all over the
country to open postal savings accounts
by mail that he took up the task some
weeks ago of working out a feasible
and sife method "for meeting the de
mand.
Under the plan adapted by the Post
master General for opening accounts by
mail an intending depositor, resklSng
' where there is no regularly designated
: postal savings bank, will apply to his
i local postmaster who will see that noe-
I essary identification data is prepared
; and forwarded to a nearby pof»toftice
authorized to accept deposits. The in
I ten'ting depositor will then be given
t permission to forward his first and
subsequent deposits by mouev order or
registered mail direct to the postmaster
at the banking point for which re
ceipts or certificates wiW be* issued. He
may withdraw all or any part of his
postal savings by mail and on demand
together with any interest that may
be ni'ue him.
The new leaflet points out that any
person ten years old or over may open
lan account in his or her own name;
' that an account may be opened by a
married women free from any control
or interference by her husband; that
postofficc officials are forbidden to dis
close to any person, except the deposi
tor, the amount of any deposits: that
withdrawals may be made without pre
vious notice; nml that the Govern
ment guarantees to repay all deposits
on demand with accrued interest.
