The Tidings asks all of the clubs to co-operate with It for the better ment of the club column. This can be done by each appointing press rep resentatives. The majority of the elubn have done so already, but there are still some card clubs and com munity societies that have not thus made one of their members a press correspondent. This Is done so noth ing can escape the attention of the alitor. Hand in all items written on just one side of the paper, otherwise the back side must be recopied, whirh takes a good deal of time and Mpense. If you know about a social item, write it up or phone It in, even If the affair did not happen at your home. The Tleasant Hour Club will meet with Mrs. W. K.

That Perform on Wheels Milestones a Play Of Charm, Critic After enjoying' a prosperous en gagement of two weeks at the Co lumbia Theatre, San FranciscoJ. Mile stones, the Arnold Bennett-Edward Knoblauch play, comes to the Vining Theatre next Saturday, October 31, for one night. Walter Anthony, dra matic critic of the San Francisco Chronicle, spoke of the play as fol lows: "Milestones has withstood the tem pestuous usages of three seasons, and is likely to last three times three seasons and still remain young as its last act. "The Knoblauch-Bennett play was repeated last night at the Columbia Theatre after no longer an absence than the time that has elapsed since last February, when the English company first brought the delicacy in drama to San Francisco. I was, not among those who were fortunate enough to have seen the first produc tion of the early year and can at tempt no comparative estimate . of the worth of the two cast3. It is per fectly safe to say that if February's cast was any better than October's it assuredly must have bee"n fabu lous. "Milestones is not a play. It teaches no moral, it establishes no pet theory. It i3 just a story of con structive vehement youth turning into conservative, stubborn age it is the story of life wherein each gen eration comes upon the stage of life's activities ' to make over and over again the mistakes of previous gen erations. Dear Gertrude says it all In the second act: 'Oh, what's the use?' sighs the spinster who has be come a cheated maid. At the end of the last act old Grandfather John, the impetuous, prophetic inventor in the first act, now turned into a title loving, conservative old man, says: 'We live and learn.' "Those are the two themes of Mile stones, 'What's the use?' and 'We live and learn.' "Between these two extremes you have benefited by the charming ac quaintance of dear, genuine folk in untheatrlc scenes of unforced effect iveness and jou will long remember Miss Florence Born, first as the blooming girl cheated of her happi ness, then as the spinster and then as the aged woman tottering cane in hand to the rescue of the third gen eration's happiness. You will recall with no less pleasure Mary Goulden's metamorphosis as Rose Rhead; Ru pert Harvey's three ages of John Rhead, and so on through the whole cast of thrice-drawn portraits each more tender and perhaps more true than the last. "See Milestones, not as a play but as a mirror, wherein perhaps you, may glimpse your own face and learn from Knoblauch and Bennett's per sonified abstractions that there isn't anything of much avail but love and faith." Booth Will Speak Wednesday Night Hon. R. A. Booth, candidate for the United States senate, will arrive in Ashland Wednesday at 5, o'clock and speak at 8 at the Vining Theatre.
