DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, BALEM. OREGO.V, SATVRDAY, APRIL 22, 1911. PAGE SI5E UP-TO-DATE MINSTRELS TONIGHT jV poCKSTADER WITH A COM. PA XV OP ALL STARS TO SET SALEM LAUGHIN GTOMGHT AS IT NEVER LAUGHED BEFORE. 'Lew Dockstader and his "Twen tieth Century Minstrels," as ha Is pleased to term the organization now under his control, is to bo the attrac tion at the Grand Opera House tonight- Dockstader has always been a great favorite on the Pacific coast, and hl9 coming will be hailed with delight by his many personal friends, as el as by his admirers, especially so, as this will be the; first minstrel show of the season. While It has grown to be the fashion to decry to a certain extent this time-honored form ot entertainment there is still exist ing, especially among the older mem bers of any community, a lurking sen timent m favor of the minstrels, a tiny spark which is easily fanned In to s flame when "minstrel day" ar rives. Whiter Lew Dockstader Is undoubtedly the most popular min strel man who ever stepped on the stagf, he no doubt owes his vogue to the fact that he has not cared par ticularly for the traditions of mln- "Juot Say" HORLICK'S It Mians Original and Ganulm HALTED MILK Thi Food-drink for All kgtu More healthful than Tea or Coffee, Agrees with the weakest digestion.

OthetM are imitations. strelsy, and has tried to be up-to-date and progressive in everything that he does. For instance. In his show this year the proverbial semi circle of the "first part" has been abandoned, and the company appears at the rise of the curtain as members of a swell colored organization known as "The Possum Hunt Club,'' and they are seated at tables' on the lawn In front of the club house, anxiously awaiting the arrival of Dockstader himself. This secene Is such a dis tinct departure from the ordinary minstrel first part that It may prove to be a bit shocking to some of the old timers, but it is said) there is plenty of fun In it, and that it also permits the introduction of some good singing by the vocal contingent of the organization. Dockstader claims that his entertainment, is a minstrel show with a plot, and a well devel oped story Is told, one quite' as con sistent as Is to be found In any of the modern musical comedies. The sec ond part of the Dockstader show, In stead of consisting of a number ot vaudeville features, as used to be the custom, Is a continuation of the first part, and the "plot" is carried out to a logical conclusion. While Dock stader himself forms a big part of the show he Is not the only one, howev er, and It is promised that he has gathered together an exceptional band of singers, dancers and vocalists. Among the most Important members are: Carroll Johnson, Eddie Mazier, Happy Naulty, Charlies Falk, William Brandts, Frank Farron, Allen Camp bell, Charles Raymond, Thomas Hughes, William Smith and about 80 others. During the morning of "min strel day" a street parade will be given, starting from the theater at high noon. ' Prices, $1.50, J1.00, 75c and 50c. Call For Bids.

One of the most marked features of this movement to make conditions satisfactory for the housekeeper Is the Interest recently displayed by the State Federation of Women's Clubs. The New Experiment Stations. In several states, notably in New Jersey and Connecticut, experiment stations have been established for trying out labor-saving machines of all sorts, and testing, various food (preparations. Hundreds of Inven tions have been patented for lighten ing the labor of dish washing, clean ing, cooking, etc., but only a few are adequate for the demands made up-1 ion them, or are built on a scale that fits them for average homes. Many j labor-saving machines are so large and expensive that they are suited only for hotels and clubs, where they have long been installed, others are too complicated in their construction. so are easily put out of order and rendered useless. The Average Housekeeper Has neither time nor money to use in finding out which of these inven tions will lighten her labors, and give her the leisure she covets for reading and social intercourse. She reads about the proper proportion of protelds and other elements that should be supplied by her table If her family is to be properly nour. Ished, but, without any special train ing In domestic science, most of such information fails to give her prac tical help in laying out her table money to the best advantage. The Club Woman. Just here the club experiment sta tion steps In. Manufacturers of meritorious articles that they wish to sell to women are only too glad to send a sample to the station free of charge, knowing that. If it stands the test and Is endorsed, club women all over the state and their non club friends will be informed of the fact, and will buy when tltey are as-; sured of the value of the machine, food or other domestic article. Wo men can consult the committee In charge about any domestic problem and get practical, trustworthy Infor mation. On the other hand, manu facturers will, It Is hoped, learn from the reports of the club station Just what sort of articles are most likely to answer the requirements of the women In their home state, and pre sumably those of others all ver the country. Ninety Per Cent Houseworkers. Ninety per cent of the women In this country do their own work, and are vitally Interested in any machin ery to ligten tb.Hr labw, or save the drain upon the husband's earnings made by the Increased cost of all kinds of commodities. The study of expense Is a feature of prime Im portance, that Is embodied In all re ports made from the new stations. Just as (he sewing machine has su perseded hand labor In the making of clothes, will other household machin ery do away with domestic drudgery. The Obsolete Broom. The vacuum cleaner Is the most Im portant labor-saving device for the home that has so far boan produced by man's lngeunlty, and the time Is not far distant when the broom and other dust-raising Instruments wiii be as obsolete as the farmer's hand scythe. In the quaint little city of Rahway, New Jersey, whrwe his tory da(es back to Revolutionary aays, a community of master work men, engaged In making famous mu sic boxus, have now turned their skill to making Begins vacuum cleaners. When one can pnoduce a double suc tion, hand operated cleaner, so sim ple in construction that there Is noth ing to get out of order for less than the cost of one spring house clean ing, that uncomfortable function will soon be unnecessary. In Large Comnmnities In communities large enough to support them laundries and bakeries do much to ease he burden of the housekeeper, but in more sparsely settled sections, each family must de pend upon its own resources. Intelli gent women are making use of every domestic appliance that will help their business of home running. Mo tors of various sorts are used to run churns, as well as threshing ma- sunny mm Use any kind of water you wish hot or cold, hard or soft and Sunny Monday laundry soap will give you equally good results.
