B "To win this war we must have H money to provide for the million and a H half men America is sending to M Franco," continued Miss Fickford, H "and this money must come through H the sale of bonds and thrift stamps. B The third Liberty Loan will be offered m ' the American people next Saturday. B There are three of us here and wo H have pledged ourselves to raise nine m hundred million dollars of this loan M and we are going to do it. H "Utah, I should say, largely ovorsub- m scribed her quota on the first and sec- 1 ond Liberty Loans and I know that m she will again oversubscribe her quota H to the third Liberty Loan. No more H patriotic people can be found any- H where in the world than the people in H this great commonwealth of yours. H There is no question but what you will H do your duty. Bood-bye." H "Just watch the American boys go H over the top in France," said Douglas H Fairbanks, "for when they do there H -will be something doing and the H Bodies are in dread of their coming M for it means the doom of Kaiserism H and all that it implies. You know H there's luck in threes and each of this H party of three has given a pledge to fl raise three hundred million dollars for M the third Liberty Loan. We propose Bfi to make good, too. And this demon- m stration which you have given us B shows conclusively what you will do." B "Back the boys in the trenches with B your money and there will be no doubt M about the outcome," said Charley M i , Chaplin. "We have been a little bit B t blue," he continued, "but we are now B I showing our strength and there is no H , question about the outcome. Utah is H all right as is all the West and I H 'know that the returns will show over- H ' subscription to this loan froiu the Hi ' West as they did in the two former Hit loans.

Hi'' Utah will do her duty." a ORPHEUM GItESSY'S satire on newspaper life entitled "The Wyoming Whoop," billed as the headliner at the Orphoum this Aveek, really occupies first place. Of course there never was a newspaper news-paper liko the "Whoop," there never was an office like the one in which the Whoop is printed, and even when the West was supposed to be wild and woolly there never was a time when so-called bad men went gunning for editors ed-itors as the playlet shows. All this is from the imaginative mind of down-oastors. down-oastors. However, the skit is more than well presented. Cressy works in a patriotic poem, as also some philosophy, philos-ophy, and furnishes opportunity for many laughs. Miss Dayno and the other members of the company enact the roles assigned them in clever manner. man-ner. The bills opens with a novel and unique act in which Alfred Latell impersonates im-personates a bulldog to perfection. Elsie Vokes aids in the act with her songs. "At the Old Cross Roads," said to bo a breeze from the farm, is a comedy sketch in which Harry and Etta Conley appear. The stage settings set-tings are unusually pretty, the scene being evening. Paul Morton and Naomi Na-omi Glass present a musical satire, "1918 1950," in which they sing fairly well, and dance bettor. Al Shayno does a turn,, assisted by an unknown from the orchestra, which is a clever act. His "Hunk o Tin" is the best feature in his act. Stuart Barnes in song and monologue mono-logue has opportunity to draw many laughs from the audience. His act is enjoyable. Charles Hanlon and Art Clifton in "The Unexpected" really give the audience a surprise. Their act, an acrobatic one, opens with music, mu-sic, the stage settings representing a library. The acrobatic feature is artistic artis-tic and one of the best seen here this season. Notable events in the Pathe News in which are shown several fine war pictures, pic-tures, conclude the bill. PANT AGES XF you cannot recall your past life, if you would know What the future fu-ture will be for you, Hope Eden will detail it for you at Pantages this week, for with Frescott, who is billed as "The Master Mind of Mental Mysticism," Mystic-ism," they do a clover turn in the transmission of intelligence by mental process. It is similar to that of others oth-ers who have given exhibits here, but this couple are better than the average and really give a wonderful exhibition of the memorizing of verbal cues. Jn the imitating of birds, musical instruments in-struments and various makes of buzz wagons, Bobby Henshaw is an adept and his act in this lino is one of the best given here in a long while. He has a good voice also and his songs are better than the average. Charley and Adelaide Wilkins do some eccentric and burlesque dancing, while Adelaide has a good voice and her singing with the patter of her partner make their turn pleasing. In an act that is different from others of its kind The Kuehns score a hit in their musical turn. Mennetti and Sidella, knockout comedians, present an act which is a laugh producer, as it also gives opportunity oppor-tunity for some good stunts in an acrobatic acro-batic way. "The Bachelor Dinner," featuring Jack Henry and Rose Gardner, which was here earlier in the season, draws as well as ever. There are some clever comedy lines while the music and dan- -&N cing is up to the usual act of this character. The screen pictures which open the bill show a number of war scenes which with the music by the orchestra complete the bill. JHE beginning of Mme. Sarah K) Bernhardt's Orpheum tour would be memorable if only for one thing: it was the cause of the Divine Sarah's first ride in a Ford. Mme. Bernhardt had been appearing in Cuba and she arrived in New Orleans, March luu. The six cylinder car that had been or-, deied to meet her failed to arrive at the wharf owing to an accident. Did Madame fume and fret as temperamental tempera-mental stars are supposed to do? She did not. She pointed to one of those cars which made Detroit famous and said: "Why not take this motor?" And she did. A line of others, containing con-taining her company and equipment, brought up the rear. And it was such a procession that lowered the pomp of the doorman of the most aristocratic hostelry in New Orleans.
