DO HOT FAIL
TO SEE THE
SPENDTHRIFT
AT THE GRAND TO.MGHT IT IS
A HEAL MAY OF THE EEAL
LIFE OF TODAY PRESENTED BY
A STKOXG COMPANY.
The high cost of living has been
taken up and discussed In a most In
teresting way by Porter Emerson
Browne In his great drama "The
Spendthrift," which comes here for
its long run at the Chicago Opera
House which followed a five months'
engagement at the Hudson Theater,
New York. This subject of such
vital Interest to practically everyone
Is given new twists and turns by Mr.
Browne and they strike him forcibly.
When the summer heat In New York
was near the boiling point, theater
goers flocked to see this play. Its
situations date to our very existence.
It Is a real play of real life of today.

HETHERSOLE
WEDNESDAY IN
A DOUBLE ROLE
SALEM PEOPLE MILL HATE A
CHANCE TO SEE ONE OF THE
WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS ACT
BESSES WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT
THE GRAND.
A more than ordinarily Interesting
event to thoughtful play-goers will
occur on Wednesday, May 10, when
Olga Nethersole -will present Mau
rice Maeterlinck's "Sister Beatrice"
at the Grand Opera House. It will
also mark the first occasion when
this play has been seen away from
New York.
"Sister Beatrice" was perhaps the
most unqualified success of the new
theater during Its first season. Edith
Wynne Matthieson created the role
In encomiums from the press. It
will be highly interesting, therefore,
to see Nethersole's Interpretation, and
doubly so from the fact that Bern
hardt also Includes the play In her
repertoire.
"Sister Beatrice" Is a modern "mir
acle play" In which a love-called
nun leaves her duties In the convent
to follow her lover. The pitiful Vir
gin assumes her robes and per
forms her offices for years. When
the nun returns, sin-hardened and
sorrow-broken the Virgin steps back
on her pedestal and the sisters gath
er about Beatrice's death-bed, hail
ing her as a saint. Both In concep
tion and treatment It is highly poe
tic and impressive.
At the New Theater recently Miss
Nethersole gave Maeterlinck's "Mary
Magdalen," and it was through the
connections thus established that

The Fish and Game Commission
completed its organization! Saturday
afternoon by electing George H. Kel
ley, of Eugene, as the fifth member,

Under this law the board will have
complete jurisdiction of all matters
pertaining to the enforcement of the
fish and game laws, and also the
appointing power of all officers.
Scores of applications for the offices
had already been filed with Gover

to the board for its consideration, and
at Its next meeting the appointments
will be made. Master Fish Warden
Clanton is a candidate for the place
he now occupies, and, since he ia a
man of experience in the fish busi
ness, and has given the state an ad

The government has shown that
the army can be quickly mobilized
In any part of the country, fully arm
ed and equipped and supplied with
the proper food rations.
This is a strong contrast to the
conditions that existed when the
Spanish-American war broke out.
It was frequently difficult to obtain
the supplies for a proper diet even
for the sick in the hospitals.
Wellington Is reported to have said
that "an army marched on Its
stomach." Whether he said so or
not our army officials, appreciating
the sentiment, have for many years
been experimenting In the line of an
"emergency ration." which should
be pure, wholesome, satisfying the
needs of nutrition, convenient and
portable.

DANCES OF
THE WORLD'S
YOUNG DAYS
MISS RUTH ST. DE.MS IX IIEK
WONDERFUL ORIEXTAL ASD
EGYPTIAN DANCES AT THE
GRASD TUESDAY NIGHT.
The dancing craze, for it can bo
fairly termed that, which swept
across the country last season, has
gone, and In its train many dancers
of many dances. Like all crazes
which seem to possess the pleasure
seekers of the land, this has had Its
aftermath, for it has served good
purpose in bringing to the present
generation a Just appreciation of the
art of dancing the expression of
thought by motion. Of course there
are many who had temporary call
for notice who have gone down in
the deluge, but the genuine artists,
the dancers who were sincere and
had a definite plan' f entertainment,
have survived. But you can number
them on the fingers of one hand.
There is Genee for the school of bal
let dancing, Pavlowa and Mordkln
for the peculiar Slavic gyrations
which are almost acrobatic In their
moods, Ruth St. Denis as a pantoni
ne dancer (for want of a better
word), and possibly three or four
others.
This revival of the art of dancing
really began, Insofar as we are con
cerned with the serpentine dance of
a decade ago. Those ' dances were
the first to excite the Interest of the
present generation. Of course, in the
continental opera houses the ballet
has always held Its own, but with
the great general- public the art had
sunk Into the limbo of forgotten
things. The serpentine dance was
succeeded by the fire dance and the
high kicking dancs of which Lottie
Collins and her Ilk were the great
exponents. But gradually out of the
depths of the art of real dancing was
appearing. Occasionally an artist
appeared who did work for the re
generation of the art, and for this
conspicuous credit is due mainly to
the women of the stage.
Among the number to whom credit
is due is Ruth St. Denis. At a time
when dancing as an art was at Its
lowest ebb she conceived and devel
oped the Hindu dances which have
won fame fir her. She was poor and
unknown and yet with a determina
tion which comes of surety in the
ultimate triumph she clung to the
belief that some day the art of danc
ing would return to public recogni
tion once more. Finally Henry B.
Harris saw her dances, and he too
was convinced that Miss St. Denis
had, in these dances an entertain
ment so unique and unusual that the
public would be sure to appreciate
them. He put her under contract
and Introduced her to the public at
a series of special matinees at the
Hudson Theater in New York. The
Instantaneous success which they
achieved Is now a matter of theatrl
cal history.
But Miss St. Denis was only at the
commencement of her work. She
has no desire to be known as a one
part artist and Immediately the suc
cess was had she began to develop
her plans for the cycle of Oriental
numbers which she will bring out.
Miss St. Denis is more than a dancer,
she la a pantominlst of rare talent,
one who expresses thought without
words. Her Hindu creations ex
pounded without a spoken word the
theological theories of the Hindus.
It made evident the basis of their
religious belief and the manner in
which it was followed by the believ
ers. The second of the series of Or
iental numbers, are of ancient Egypt,
its people and Its religion. The
dances go back to the time when the
world was young and the Sphinx was
still entirely above the sands of the
deserts. In them she seeks to bring
to life again the ways of the priests
and their acolytes the dances of the
people and the splendour of the era.
The ceremonies of the ancient Egyp-
tians have had great bearing on the
civilization of the present day, and
In this phase they are of peculiar in
terest Miss St. Denis Is assisted by a
large company, there are elaborate
scenes for each dance, and a special
augmented orchestra is required to
Interpret the descriptive music writ
ten for the numbers by Walter Mey
rowitz.

SCHOOL BOARD
BUYS ANOTHER
SCHOOL SITE
Chairman Babcock and Clerk John
son were authorized at the meeting
of the school board Saturday evening
to close the option which the board
holds on certain property facing
Church street and abutting upon the
property upon which the present
high school building is located and
upon which it is proposed to erect a
school building.
The property is 66 by 165 feet in
dimension and the price named in
the option is $3,000. As the board
views it, the time is not far distant
when It will be needed for an addi
tional school building and the pur
chase is being made now as property
situated in that section is destined to
advance materially and rapidly.. The
purchase price will be Included In
the next budget.
In view of the expense that has
been made necessary this year In the
construction of an addition to the
present high school building, the
board decided not to grant the peti
tions for new school buildings at
East and North Salem. Next year,
however favorable action will prob
ably be taken and the buildings
erected.

' GRAY HAIRS BANISHED.
The old Idea of using sage for darken
ing the hair is again coming in vogue.
Our grandmothers used to have dark,
glossy hair at the age of seventy-five.
while our mothers have white hair before
they are fifty. Our grandmothers used
to make a "sage tea" and apply it to
their hair. The tea made their hair soft
and glossy and gradually restored the
natural color. One objection to using
such a preparation was the trouble of
making it, especially as It had to bs
made every two or three dajs on account
of it souring quickly, This objection has
been overcome and by asking almost
any first-class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur the public can get a su
perior preparation of sage,, with the ad
mixture of sulphur, another valuable rem
edy for hair and scalp troubles. Daily
use of this preparation will nbt only
quickly restore the color of the hair but
will also stop the hair from falling out
and'mnko it grow. It is sold by all
druggists for GOc. and $1.00 a bottle, or
is sent direct by the Wyeth Chemical
Company,- 74 Cortlandt St., New iork
City, upon receipt of price. '
