Plays To Be Given
Monday. Night At
Elsinore
mHE first of the large erents
I next week will be te two
one-act plays whlrfa will be
presented by . the Salem Drama
League Monday night in the El
sinore theatre. The plays will be
offered In connection with the
regular screen program, and mem
bers of the league are requesting
tfcefr patrons and acquaintances
to buy tickets from their organ
isation, as -tier receive a percent
age on all tickets sold outside of
the theatre management.
One of the plays is attracting
special attention, for it comes
from the pen of a prominent
young Salem matron. Mrs. Merrill
Ohling (Odell Savage). Mrs. Ob
ling has named her, play "Jon."
and the scene of the prologue and
of the one aet is laid on the
north coast of Scotland among
primitive fisher folk.
Mrs. Otto K. Paul us. produc
tion manager for the league, and
Ray Felker of the Elsinore the
atre, are arranging an unusually
fine setting for the play. The
dramatic scenes will be enhanced
by the sound of the restless sea
and the wild wind. Mr. Felker
bas had many years of technical!
experience In theatres ana is
noted here for the graphic sin
cerity 'of his stage settings.
The cast for "Jon' was select
ed only after a number of try
outs, when Mrs. Gerald Prescott
was chosen for the part of Myra,
mother of Jon; Oliver Huston for
Peter, father of Jon; Gertrude
Roblson Ross, Jon's friend; Mrs.
George King as Jon's grand
mother; and young Stanley King
to take the part of Jon in the
prologue. While Mrs. Prescott
has studied dramatic art under
Professor Fergus Reddle at the
University of Oregon, and Mrs.
Ross has been presented in play
production before by" the league,
the rest of, the cast are compara
tively new to the art.
Settings for the second play to
be given Monday night, a clever
little Japanese comedy entitled,
"A Dear Little Wife." are being
and Mr. and Mrs. Monroe Gilbert.
Miss Wrenn has spent a number
of years In the Orient and Is a
clone student of life and habits in
both Japan and China. Miss
Wrenn and Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert
are making an authentic replica
of regular Japanese home life.
The brilliant costumes so gener
ally seen In theatrical representa
tions of Oriental plays will be re
placed by the somber garments
which native Japanese habitually
wear.
Mrs. Ruth Jones Smith, who is
a charming matron with tiny
form and bright black eyes and
black hair. Is Ideally cast as the
dear little wife." Norman Pur
brlck takes the part of the slow
witted husband, and R. W. Tev
enner is cast as the lover. A
group of villagers complete the
east.
The play which was written In
Manchester. England, in 1912. by
Gerald Dunn, has been a favorite
fa little theatres since Its first
presentation, for it is a cleverly
etched picture of intrigue in Jap
anese domestic life.
The two plays are the first to
be presented by the Salem Drama
League this winter, although
Mrs. W. B. Anderson, president
of the league, and Mrs. Paulas
re planning an impressive pro
gram of play production.

Byrd waited until the last pos

fresh. She cut circles of bread.
toasted and buttered them, and
spread them with appetizing mix
tures and with a pastry tube, built
cunning little rail fences around
the edges and birds' nests in the
centers.
It was seven o'clock, but there
waa no Larry. Byrd began to
worry. Ten zalnutes later Tiny
telephoned to say. petulantly, that
Fred hadn't arrived.
"Larry isn't here, either. Call
up the girls and tell them not to
wait. Take a taxi and hurry," or
dered Byrd. "We'll start this
party without them."
Byrd had Just started to squeeze
out the fruit, which was to form
ne foundation for Larry's favor
ite mixture, when the girls ar
rived with-their "strafen" pro
gram all laid out. India started
to mix the cocktails and, scorning
gin, began looking around for
something more potent.
"Where's that bottle of Three

She measured out the sugar,

enormous aluminum b e a n p o t
which Larry used instead of the
more elegant variety of cocktail
shaker.
"Oh, boy. what a girl I" Tiny
giggled, as she followed India
about, begging for the first "div

"The least thing we can-do is
to eat up all the canapes and

we got fun?"
Margy looked at India as if she
wished she had Just one-half her
courage and a little of her ability
to raise Cain.
"I've never done a thing like
this before in my life," she said.
In a white, scared voice. "Jack
won't let me smoke or drink. He'd
raise the roof if he walked in
now."
India shook the mixture reck
lessly, and suddenly the top flew
off. A foaming stream gushed
straight down her lovely, poppy-
colored dress.
If you get through an evening
with only one dress you're lucky.
I should have bought two. she
laughed carelessly. Then she
looked at Byrd's dress suspicious
ly. "Where's your new dress.

SUGAR
in boiling ham
A famous cook gives bis
recipe
A MAN, famous among his friends
for his fine cooking, was asked the
secret of his delicious boiled ham.
He gave this simple recipe: Put a
cupful of sugar in the water that
boils an average size ham. Also
one-half cup of vinegar. Try this
and see how much it improves the
taste and flavor of the ham.
Every good cook knows that
there is no substitute for sugar
in improving the enjoyment of
other foods. Whether in prepar
ing fresh vegetables, fruits or
meats, sugar is the secret of suc
cessful cookery.
Sweetnesals nature's perfect
flavor. It is also the cheapest nu
triment that you can buy.
Health comes from eating good
foods, flavored to please the taste.
Beware of extreme reducing diets.
They are dangerous. Eminent
medical authorities warn us that
permanent injury often results
from starvation diets.
B sure that you and yoar chil
dren are properly nourished. Eat
enough of varied foods, sweet
ened for enjoyment. The Sugar
