Ben Benny is a likable young chap of ingratiating personality who tells stories, mostly about a girl he claims in Seattle. When he plays San Fran cisco next week the girl will have moved to Portland.

Flint Takes Safety of Religion as Topic. Rev. Elbert E. Flint, of the Atkin son Memorial Congregational church, speaking yesterday morning on "Mak ing the World Safe for Religion, re ferred to the following passage of scripture. In me ye may have peace. In the world ye have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." "The real safety of human life, both physical and with its 2000 years of Christian ideals, was never more of an issue than today," said Rev. Flint. "With certain standards of world pursuit strangely strong and fascinating bombarding the gospel Ideals of life, many are trembling. and. doubting- which way to turn. One of the great needs of the hour is to awaken the Christian conscience, as well as the world conscience, to the fact of sin. Some people seem to think of it as a story or a myth of the Bible. There are stories in the Bible and there are myths in the Bible but sin is not one of them. We want mwt' passionately mad against sin today. "A world safe for religion must make it easy for the producers and impossible for the nonproducers.

Milk prices will drop In Tacoma on April 1 from 15 and 12ft cents a quart and 10 to 7ft cents a pint re tail, according to predictions of' the dealers.

Walker, president of one of the leading dairy companies in Ta-1 coma, issued a statement today to his customers in which he explained that prices would not be cut until April 1, as the drop would work a hardship on the farmers who are still feeding their stock.

"The Mustard Kings.", after dis gracing themselves generally -in so ciety and narrowly escaping death at the hands of an irate prison guard and bomb thrower, are unceremo niously housed in a jail provided with rubber bars and a French' chef: and here they decide to spend a couple of years, so as to wear out alt their last summer's clothes.

In fact, she possesses quite remarkable hair and sne uses it on the stage in quite a remarkable manner. ' Miss Garden gives- a burlesque on modern vaudeville and the advent of "high-class artists" in this line. First she mimics the prima donna and next comes the pianist of the many ges tures and wild hair. Off comes the actress' dainty poke bonnet, out comes a hairpin and a wild musical pompadour Immediately manifests it self. The "composer" is generously applauded. Nick Copeland, Luther Yantis and Marjorie Brayton take the leading parts in "Go Ahead," a snappy revue. A quartet of pretty girls assists the singers and finally when Copeland expresses a desire to see some real vamps they come forth clad in the lateBt and most extreme gowns. In Al Gruet. Jack Gruet and -Marie Kramer the theater has a 'band all by itself, for this versatile trio, ap pearing in "A Circus Day in Geor gia." play all kinds of wind instru ments. Jack Gruet takes a comedy part as a willing darkey, who is a candidate for the position of lion tamer. A brief experience with the animal convinces him he would pre fer 'he band and he drags out a bat tered horn. Saxophones., bugles and drums follow in rapid succession and the comedy patter is supplanted by instrumental music. Lockhard and Laddie are two clever equilibrists who don't seem to mind iuinps and bruises. They turn amus ing somersaults and handsprings and keep the audience in good humor. New songs are furnished by Rottach and Miller and by James Mahoney and Ruth Rogers, who have a sea shore flirtation skit. The photoplay which accompanies this bill is "The Illustrious Prince," starring Sessue Hayakawa. Company to Rebuild Line. KELSO, Or., March 21. (Special.) The North Coast Power company Is planning to rebuild their transmis sion line between Kalama and Wood land next summer and have appro priated funds for the work. Last year the lines from xielso south were rebuilt, and new transformer sta tions installed here and at the Ka lama river power plant. The company will spend about .$20,000 on the admonition, "Casting all your care upon God for He careth for you." He said: "This is a cleverly and winsomely put statement. Care may be the verbal label for two opposite expe riences. God pity the man. or woman who has not a friend who really cares for him.. Love is a necessity of life. It is by making us aware of the great facts that God loves us and has faith in us that the gospel endeavors to make us God-like. Modern science teaches that God's presence in his world does not mean that God is now here and then there In the world, but that the whole universe depends ceaselessly upon his sustaining will. There is no truth w,hich is more prac tical or potent than this truth that God careth for men. If I am trying to do his will then I need know no in ner disquiet. Early childhood is care.
