George M. Cohan's "Baby Cyclone" at Blackstone April 16 Someone has said that a theatrical season is never complete without at least one production of a play, be it musical or not, from the pen of that wizard of playwriting, George M. Cohan. Hence the theater going pub- lic will view with interest the an- nouncement of the opening Monday night, April 16, at the Blackstone theater, Chicago, of this prolific au- thor's American farce hit, "The Baby Cyclone," for a limited engagement only. Probably no other playwright has the keen insight into human character that George Cohan has. He can touch more deftly and bring to his audience in an effective way, the many human foibles and shortcomings of the every- day man or woman as well as picture the little commonplace matters of our neighbor's life in a more amusing manner than other writers of the pres- ent theater, at least. As has been said, the comedy strength of his "Baby Cyclone" is a revealing farce in which six or eight humans are stripped of all their foolish graces, their dignity, their pride, even their sense of humor, in an adventure involving a silly dog. "The Baby Cyclone" first saw the light of day in Boston, where Cohan has started a number of his former successes, and after a four weeks' stay in "Beantown," was rushed to New York where it became the comedy buy of the current season at the Henry Miller theater, for seven months. Then a return engagement to Boston, from which city it comes direct to Chicago. Grant Mitchell still heads the most excellent cast which includes a num- her of players long associated with previous Cohan plays, Georgia Caine, Natalie Moorhead, Edith Luckett, Acnes Gildea, Lydia Van Hagan, William Morris. Joseph Allen, Spencer Tracv, Joseph Holicky, John T. Doyle, Charles F. McCarthy, Oliver Putnam and Barlowe Borland. The story is in three acts and as manv scenes and the original production will be used in Chicago. Incidentally the usual Wed- nesday and Saturday matinees will be Build Home for Stray Milk Bottles HE milkmen of Chicago and sub- urbs have just completed a $500,- 000 building dedicated to recovering lost and strayed milk bottles. This Milk Bottle Exchange is located on Blue Island avenue and Lincoln street, Chicago, and covers almost an entire block. At present the exchange sorts and returns to the rightful owners on an average of 200,000 milk bottles each day. According to Mr. Ernest Reuter, manager of the exchange, the opening of the new building is the beginning of a drive to speed up recovery of all milk bottles not now in actual use. This new building has a ground floor space three times that of the Coliseum and at present a hundred people are employed. Miles of conveyors cover both floors like a net work and facilitate the sort- ing and distribution of bottles and cases. All methods and equipment have been designed especially for use in the Exchange and are considered unique and efficient as compared with or- dinarv methods. Within the uext ten days everv housewife in Chicago and suburbs will receive from her milkman a note ask- ing her co-operation in putting out all bottles regardless of whose name an- pears on them. Few people realize that each milk bottle they fail to re- turn promptly represents a loss to given. the milkman of five cents. North Shore Holds School Elections This Saturday Annual school board elections will be held this Saturday. In each of the north shore villages and in the High school election uncontested tickets are being presented for the approval of the voters. For the New Trier High school board, two candidates are being pre- sented for re-election to offices as board members. They are Mrs. George Gordon and Jesse R. Gathercoal. Wilmette voters will cast a white ballot for Enoch Steen as president of the board to succeed himself and Henry C. Cutler and Ralph H. Dur- ham as board members. In Kenilworth the candidates are A. T. McIntosh for president and Harry Weeese and Miss Barbara Erwin as members of the board. Winnetka Voters are asked to return Harry C. Edmonds and Edward A. Anderson to the aqffices they now hold. In addition they will vote on bond issues, providing for the com- pletion of some of the present school buildings, the erection of additions in certain instances and the erection of a new building in the northwest section of the village. This building program will be extended over the quadrennium just started, it is explained, but it is considered to have the full bond is- sue authorized in order to permit the Going to Do Painting? Gay Colors Now in Favor Gay colors are to be the rule this year in outdoor painting, and if you have never quite dared to go in for bright colors before, why not have a fling at them this time? Gay colors combined, stripes, figures and plain. Some people change the color of their porch furniture every year. If it was blue gray and apricot last year, it becomes blue gray with turquoise or yellow with an ebony hue. Amazing how freshly painted shut- ters, doors, porches, trellises, and lat- tices will brighten up a whole house. And where there is wrought iron, this, too, should not be neglected. While some people like the somewhat "antique" appearance rusty wrought iron takes on, the iron should be painted before the "rusting" process has begun in earnest. If desired, this same "rusty effect" without the bad results, may be had with paint. To get this, put on sienna first, and while this is in the gummy stage, stipple with a brush dipped in burnt umber pigment; this pigment should first be mixed with a little sawdust. Limeproof Heaters Now Give New Tone of Comfort Limeproof hot water heaters are now available for territories where hard water prevails. And every home owner who has lived in such a "ter- ritory" can picture the comfort of pro- tection against clogging of pipes by lime. For by "limeproof" is meant that the heater cannot stop up with lime de- posits, as the hot water is not forced through small pipes but on the con- trary the heat passes through small pipes surrounded by water. W. R. and Anita Knufper sold to E. K. and V. E. Gordon the 6 room frame house at-722 Clinton street, Evanston. Deane Dodson of the Wil- mette office of Quinlan & Tyson was the broker. board to definitely formulate its plans. H. Earl Hoover, present president of the Glencoe school board, and E. C. Auston and E. Arthur Robertson are the candidates in the Glencoe School election.
