Women's PAmioncSERVicE By Edith Knight Holmes 'T F YOU'VE never gone hungry and felt the need of warm clothing and comforts, you've missed a lot in life. You have no idea how to sym pathize with the poor or with the sol diers who are in the trenches in France." That is the opinion of one of the Red Cross workers in the Penin sula district, where the response for Red Cross memberships has been splen did. Many of the people there are in moderate circumstances, but they are responding nobly. A captain in that district said yes terday that one of her best workers is a girl of German parentage. This girl has two brothers In the American forces fighting In France, and she has letters from the brothers stating that the Red Cross Is doing such great and helpful things for the soldier boys. At one house the worker called and found a couple Just arrived in Port land and the family fund consisted of but 6. Of this they gave $1. and the wife Joined the Peninsula Red Cross auxiliary. The worker hesitated about taking the dollar from people so poor, but the man, who is well and strong and willing to work, declared he soon could get a Job and make more, and It might save some poor fellow in the trenches.'

Lea ft a Miller Appears tm Clever Fare as Gtrl Raffles and Thoronahly Please Audience. ' Pearl brothers, a fat one and a little ofe, and a comedian named Burns ab solutely walk away with the new bill at the Hipprodromn this week. and. this despite the fact there are a half a doz en other good acts. The Pearl-Burns combination hasn't a serious moment In all Its clever turn. Burns plays the piano, and plays it mighty well. too. while the little Pearl sings in a great, big voice, and the big Pearl warbles in a still bigger voice. All of it is melodious. They travesty grand opera, and sing popular airs, put ting it all over with comedy emphasis. One capital turn they offer is a ven triloquist travesty with the big Pearl as the ventriloquist and Burns in a splendid characterization of the "dummy." An interesting offering Is that of James Devlin and' Leatta Miller in a farce called "Just One Little Girl." The little girl is a demure lass in gray who comes to call at the bachelor apart ments of the man about town. She steals everything in sight, even the telephone off the wall, and the audience rejoit-ts at the discomfiture of the "wise guy" host. The comedy is neatly put over by Mr. Devlin, and Miss Miller is dainty and clever as the girl Raffles. A trio of musical folk are the "Three Xylophlends," who speedily dash from grave tp gay in their playing. A bril liant bit In this act Is the music brought from bottles partly filled, with water. Jac Fox and Joe Wons, billei as the "Boys From Memphis," sing and dance gayly, and wind up their bright turn with a surprise that, brings laugh ter. Chester and Johnson, a daredevil cyclist and a pretty girl, open the bill with an interesting and diverting turn. Closing the vaudeville part of the bill is the Riva-Larson troupe of four European novelty gymnasts in a series of daring adventures on the bars and exhibitions of athletic prowess. The photoplay is a big dramatic In cident entitled "A Game of Wits," fea turing the talented Gail Kane.. FIRE DEMONSTRATION PLAN Mr. Bigelow to Snow Ability of New Apparatus on Unpaved Streets.
