AiMEE WILL 00 TO BRITAIN AND SPAR WITH SIN Evangelist to Fight Devil, Who ‘Has Been Running Pretty Loose.’ BY GEORGE H. BEALE United Press Staff Correspondent LOS ANGELES, July 31.—The Devil has been having too easy a time in the British Isles and Aimee Semple McPherson intends to do something about it. The world’s best known woman evangelist will leave here Sept. 3 for that part of the globe. She will return to Angelus Temple for Thanksgiving day. In the interim she expects to convert 25,000 English, Irish, Scotch and Welsh to the banners of the Four Square Gospel. “Let’s see,” Mrs. McPherson mused, “I’ll be there eight weeks. I’ll average 425 conversions a day—that’s almost 25,000. "Really the Devil has been running pretty loose in Great Britain. I want to give him a chance to hunt cover.” Trip Long Planned Mrs. McPherson has been planning her trip for a long time. “I was going to go two years ago, you know,” she said. “But then that horrible kidnaping turned up and I had to stay here to get things straightened out. “Did you ever know my persecution after the kidnaping almost doubled my following here and cemented my Four Square Gospel more firmly than before? “Yes, indeed, it was a terrible experience, but it did do some good. Some people still don’t believe my story, but most do, and my congregation instead of falling away, only grew stronger. Sails Sept. 8 “I was going again last fall but then mother and I had a litle trouble. That’s all settled now and it never would have happened if others had not come between us. “This time I’m ready ,-and nothing is going to stop me. The Four Square Gospel now has 103 churches in the British Isles and it’s getting more all the time. I’m going to put some more members in the congregations and prepare for more churches.” Under her present itinerary, Mrs. McPherson will sail from New York on Sept. 8. She will conduct her first service in Royal Albert Hall in London. Subsequently she will appear in Glasgow, Carlisle, Brighton, Hull, Cardiff and then will conclude at the starting point, London. There is a possibility that the evangelist may make a short trip to Switzerland, although that is not certain. Her son, Rolf, and her daughter, Roberta, will accompany her on the tour. In the future, Mrs. McPherson may make a trip a year to foreign countries in the interest of her Four Square Gospel.

Women are Learning the Right Way

Pimples on the face and other parts % of the body are warnings from within. Sometimes they foretell eczema, boils and other skin disorders that burn like flames of fire.

IF you are unfortunate in having skin blemishes, pimples, boils, eczema, you owe it to yourself and friends to remove the cause. Nature will then provide the complexion which is so much desired. Thousands have been enabled to free themselves of unsightly blemishes and painful skin annoyances by taking a course of S.S.S. You owe it to yourself to try S.S.S. It helps Nature build up red corpuscles. It improves the processes y which the blood is nourished. Red blood cells are Nature’3 ■way for building and sustaining the body. Without plenty of rich, red blood, there can be no strong, sturdy, powerful men, or beautiful healthy women. You know a clear skin comes from within. Correct the cause through the blood —and pimples, boils, eczema and that

WE SEE SUGGESTION OF UNGER COMEDY The Stock Productions of City in Trouble on Opening Nights, but Ability of Actors Will Tell Before the Week Is Over. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN JUST between us, I saw last night the most unsatisfactory first night that a Stuart Walker Company ever gave this city as far as\l know. T do not know whether there was a birthday party or what was before the first performance of “Two Girls Wanted,” a come-'y in three

acts by Gladys Unger. There was so much forgetfulness of lines and stops between business and action that I thought for awhile on Monday night that I was at a rehe n rsal. Never have I seen this

in a company that* included Eugene Powers and George’ Alison do such things. These men know their theater . and their business Never in my life have I seen so ; much forgetfulness on the part of those who act. It seems that the only act § that was tried out to satisfaction was the last scene? where Gavin Gordon and Muriel Kirkland made a

suggestion of love. Elizabeth Taylor worked her face over time and saved the show. This woman can do the Elizabeth Patterson stuff and get by with it even when things are not working right. The outstanding thing of Monday night performance of “Two Girls Wanted” is the sure fire assistance of Elizabeth Taylor. There was a failure many times on the part of most members of the cast to speak clearly. That was due to a failure of not knowing lines. That I am sure. I can not understand this let down on the part of a cast that bears the name of Stuart Walker. The scenery was right. Beautiful and all of that. But the play didn’t get over on the first night because members of the cast did not put the play over as to lines. “Two Girls Wanted” is the offering at Keith’s all week. a a a GOOD DANCER ON VIEW AT LYRIC I admire classical dancing as much as anyone, and yet for some reason an interpretative dance has more apoeal. There is more life and spirit, and gives the dancer a chance for originality. “The Fantasy Revue” is made up of several such dances. An oriental theme predominates the main dances which seem to be Siamenesse in nature. Two men do the first part of the dance. It is a spear dance, then three girls do an interpretative toe dance using the same theme. The leading woman dancer takes up the thread and continues into a modern vein. Very well done. There is a classical dance and a Hawaiian hula done by the girls and men. In the opening scene a statue comes to life and does the dance

sallow complexion will disappear. S.S.S. is Nature’s own tonic for restoring the appetite—building strength—and clearing the body of so-called skin troubles.

“I was troubled with pimples and blackheads. I took a course of S.S.S. It cleared my face and back.' I think S.S.S. is wonderful. I have told many friends about S.S.S., and they are getting as much benefit as I did.” Miss Ruth Gahm, 1134 Elden Ave., Los Angeles, Calif.

with a partner. This is a good act well done. A good burlesque stunt isn’t always confined to the burlesque stage. Harry Cooper has brought a drunk act from the burlesque to the vaudeville stage. It is the man who is agged on to sing, while another person gets stronger in telling him not to. Cooper is helped in this by Jean Glore and George Anderson. The Glore sisters and a man whom I don’t know, do several tap dances that are good. Cooper is a scream in this act of the man who has indulged overly much. Two gypsies stroll by playing violins, and come to the camp. Then they do some acrobatics that are really good. The girl stands on her head and dances on a table and on a barrel at the same time balancing on her partner’s head. There is some other balancing in the act and then the members of the Van de Velde Company play a number with bells, each person having some fastened to him. It is an unusual acrobatic number. “Information” is one of those crazy little skits that have a lot of laughs. Edwards is the actor who meets the stage struck girl and they make up an act. Agnes Sanford is the girl. They have several songs in which the meaning is turned around. Two weeks later their act is presented on the stage and it is as funny as the first part. There is some fair comedy in this, and Miss Sanford “plays her piano accordian.” Jean Barry gives some impressions from life in song and at the piano. At least I surmise that the piano solo was an impression. Her first number concerned herself and v>s about her being a blond. The second song was an impression of a

Verdict of the Stage ENGLISH’S —The two outstanding performances of the Berkell production of “The Bird of Paradise” are contributed by Bob Fay and Milton Byron. Many defects, lights, direction and the like, were present on the opening night. KEITH’S—“Two Girls Wanted” had a bad fiist night at the hands of the Stuart Walker company. Cast will get right. LYRIC—“The Fantasy Revue” has several very good interpretative dances with an oriental theme. Harry Cooper and his company present an old burlesque stunt about a drunk.

“Gold Digger” on Broadway and was a sermon to the hypocrites. I may have been in an entirely unappreciative mood at the time, but I thjnk that Miss Barry should stay with her singing and not play piano solos. The songs were clever and put across nicely. Boggs and Weston have a corned > skit that deals with an old soldier who meets a policeman that turns out to be a friend. Boggs is the old Civil War man and has the type down pretty good. I have met men that he reminds me of. Weston sings a burlesque on grand opera and has a song and dance number that is fair. Most of the work of Dault and LaMarr is done on top of a stack of tables. They do some balancing with bottles and chairs, that at least gave me a thrill. At the Lyric. (By the Observer.) tt a a CONSIDERING "THE BIRD” AS STOCK SHO<V Charles Berkell has promised Indianapolis for several seasons that he w&uld produce “The Bird of Paradise.” He has kept his promise and this week he is giving us “The Bird” with Edythe Elliott as Luana, Bob Fay as Paul Wilson, and, Milton

Byron as “Ten-Thousand-Dollar” Dean. My report is based upon the opening performance of this show

by the Berkell Players. Much that I objected to will have been remedied as you read this. This play is one of atmosphere, both as to sight and as to hearing. The native musicians were grouped in the first act as if they were cabaret entertainers. That is all wrong because as such they are not able to be the wild, song loving peopie they are supposed

to be in the play. The rain storm effects were badly handled in the first act. The storm is supposed to pass but the storm kept right on until the first curtain fell. The second act from a scenic construction standpoint was right, but when the native ceremony starts, the stage should be in darkness, the torches .giving the only light. The Berkell director did not give it to us on the opening night. The first scene of the third act is a beauty, lights better handled and the moonlight effect was good. But somebody made

a fatal mistake when they threw up the house lights at the close of the first scene. A drop should come down at once and the native musicians come forth and play in a very dim light while the volcano is being built. Instead there was a long wait and the next two scenes were flat failures. The native players should keep on with their “eukes” until Luana starts to throw herself into the crater of the volcano. This should be done in a very dim light. On Sunday night much of the effect was lost by such loud talking and the giving of directions. I thoguht that I was at the Speedway o*n race day instead of being at a theater there was so much talk going on back stage. The failure to make the best of a difficult stage situation resulted in most of us, I am sur*, leaving the theater “cold.” The last two scenes as played Sunday night destroyed the picture that should have been enjoyed by all. I feel sure that Berkell will have all of this corrected through his staff long before yoq read my report. The two outstanding performances of “The Bird” at this time is the Paul Wilson of Bob Fay. Here is a difficult part and Fay did

splendidly with it. The other big characterization was furnished by Milton Byron as Dean, the beachcomber who came back. Byron had the voice, the walk and the actions of a man who had buried his soul. Miss Edythe Elliot was not so sure of herself in part of the first act, but she recovered and came through effectively in the remainder of the play. Others in the cast include Helen West, Mildred Hastings, William Worswick, Harry Hoxworth, Larry Sullivan, William V. Hull, Virginia Perry, Idabelle Arnold, Robert St Clair (his body should be more colored to give the right effect), and Eleanor Scheufler.

Konjola Ended His Rheumatism Five Months Ago None of His Troubles Have Ever Returned; Gladly Indorses New Remedy. If you have health—a priceless thing, you have all the reason in the world to be thankful. Health usually is not appreciated until it is gone. Some persons look upon

MR. JESSE BUTLER Photo by Northland Studio it as something that God gives and about which we, as individuals, have nothing to say. This is a mistaken notion. While it\is splendid to have nature bless us with good physique, the care and protection of this gift is our own responsibility. Konjola is anew medical preparation that helps Nature keep the inner organs of the human body functioning properly; or if one is suffering from disorders of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, or nervousness, rheumatism and neuritis troubles, it will bring about anew feeling of health and life energy. The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington Sts., Indianapolis, where he talks to men and women in all walks of life every day and explains to them the merits of this celebrated compound. “I haven’t had rheumatism since I finished a treatment of Konjola, over five months ago,” states Mr. Jesse Butler, a well-known Indianapolis citizen, living at 1519 Kappes street, and employed by the Marmon Motor Company of this city. “Before I started with Konjola, my health was in a terribly rundown condition and I was never able to find anything to help me. My trouble started with a sour, acid stomach and in spite of the different remedies I began taking in hope of ending this unhealthy condition before it got too far, my health continued to go from bad to worse. My stomach would bloat up to almost twice its normal size after eating and I was subject to belching up bits of undigested food and a hot, bitter liquid that caused a burning sensation from my throat to the pit of my stomach. Then I began suffering from rheumatism. In damp, rainy weather my whole body would be,affected and every joint would feel sore and achy for days afterward. Gnawing pains in my limbs kept me awake. “When I started to take Konjola. I had only hoped it would end mv stomach trouble and didn’t think it would help all my trouble. I really did not expect it from a single medi • cine. It put my stomach in gooj shape in such a short time that I was surprised and felt it would bo worth while to keep on taking this medicine a little while longer. Now, I am glad I didn’t stop as coor. it relieved those awful stomach mLt cries. Within two more t. was almost free of every orbe and pain in my body and by the time I finished the treatment, my health war. in better condition in every way than it had been for several years Konjola is a wonderful medicine and I strongly Indorse it.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold in every Hook store in this city and by all the leading druggists throughout this section—Advertisement.
