PLANS ARE MADE FOR ACTORS’ BIG SHOW Twelfth Annual Midnight Frolic as Climax of National Vaudeville Week Will Be Held at the Palace Theater Thursday Night. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN ON Thursday night at Loew’s Palace a benefit show will be given as the climax of National Vaudeville Artists’ Week, which is being observed in all variety theaters of the country. This is a worthy cause, a much worthy one, as the funds obtained this week from such shows will be used to complete the building of a tuberculosis sanitarium at Saranac Lake, N. Y.

Indianapolis will respond to the capacity of the Palace Theater for this worthy event. \ The following statement has been issued regarding by those in charge of this midnight show Thursday night: All of the actors and actresses who happen to be in the city on Thursday night will join together in the Actors’ Twelfth Annual Midnight Frolic at the Palace Theater. This frolic will be the climax of the National Vaudeville Artists’ Week in Indianapolis. Besides being one of the outstanding entertainment events of the year, it is a charitable effort that is meeting with theliearted support of public officials and theater men. Once each year a week is set aside by the National Vaudeville Artists during which they make efforts to raise funds to be used in aiding the sick and needy of their profession. The particular purpose in raising money this year is to complete construction of a tuberculosis sanitarium for vaudeville actors and actresses at Saranac Lake, N. Y. All the leading theaters of the city are joining in the observance of the week and are offering talent for the Frolic. The project also has the indorsement of Mayor L. Ert Slack, who in a letter to William A. Hough, manager of B. F. Keith’s theater, states his willingness to invite support by the citizens of Indianapolis. The letter follows: “My attention has been called to National Vaudeville Artists week to be observed in Indianapolis and throughout the United States this week. It gives me another opportunity of calling the attention of the people of Indianapolis to a matter of interest and very great benefit to our ‘no mean city.’ “The appeal made oy this institution of Natiqpal Vaudeville Artists, dedicated to the men and women of the stage who Drovide wholesome entertainment and pleasure for millions of people, is a very worthy appeal and it should be a great pleasure not only to attend these performances because each one is outstanding in its character, but because of the opportunity to give and provide funds for charitable purposes and relief of those artists who have done their work of providing entertainment and pleasure in times gone by and who are now in need of relief. The opportunity which will present itself on Thursday night at I the Palace theater should be met | by a large attendance. “Insofar as I, as the mayor of

HOMAOEISPAID LATEMISERIN Princess Hermine to Place Wreath on Grave. Bii 7 nth <1 Press BERLIN. April 11.—Today, for the first time, Princess Hermine, wife of the ex-kaiser, will be among the mourners to place a wreath above the grave of the late ex-kaiserin, first wife of Wilhelm 11. The present Lady of Doom is expected to arrive with the other members of the Hohenzollern family to observe the eighth anniversary of the late empress’ death. But the Hohenzollerns will not be the only . mourners. The “Antique Temple,” the little chapel in Sans Souci Park, shrining the ashes of the erstwhile German empress, will be the goal of thousands and thousands of German patriots. When, on April 24, 1921, the mortal remains of Augusta Victoria were brought from exile in Holland to repose in German soil, 200,000 came to bid their deceased empress farewell. Then it was thought that the devotion of the people would soon wane. But every year, on the anniversary of her death, multitudes throng the paths of Sans Couci Park, waiting their turn to file past the sarcophagus and pay silent homage to the dead “Mother of the Country.” LADY FROGS IN HOT WATER BECOME MALES No Such Thing As Amphibious •Red Hot Mammas.’ By Science Srn icc ANN ARBOR, Mich., April 11.— Flippant talk about “red hot mammas” is all wrong—at least in frogdom. Lady frog tadpoles simply turn into males when they are kept in hot water too long, experiments by Emil Witschi of the State University of lowa indicate. Reporting his researches before the meeting of the American Association of Anatomists now in session here, Witschi stated that he grew two sets of tadpoles from the egg stage until the differentiation into sexes began to be evident. In one set, in which the temperature of the water had been increased approximately as in nature, the sex ratio was about normal—loo females and 96 males. In the other set the temperature of the water was suddenly jumped to nearly ninetj degrees when the tadpoles were five weeks old. The sex glands of the females in this set gradually assumed a musculine character, and the frogs emerged as males.
