B. D. Berg's Chummy Musical Revue now playing Orpheums theatre possesses tunefulness, humor, sparkle and smartness. It is a joyful hodge-podge with a bevy of pretty girls, funny comedians and lilting melodies. The featured artists in "Keep Movare Funny Robert Milliken, Dainty Ethel Rosevear and Debonair Donald Currie. Too much cannot be said about Robert Milliken who furnishes the laughs in this joyful revue as he is able to extract laughs from a man who suffers from a toothache or an overdue note. If you don't laugh at Bob you're hopeless. Ethel Rosevear, the ingenue, is a sweet little miss with a million dollars worth of personality. She possesses a beautiful soprano voice and is a nimble dancer. Donald Currie, late of "Miss Springtime" company, plays the juvenile role in "Keep Moving." He makes a good foil for Milliken and helps a great deal in putting over the musical numbers which are tunefull. The chorus girls are some of the prettiest and shapeliest seen in any girl act; they have all been selected for their beauty by B D. Berg, the producer of Keep Moving who is known in New York theatrical circles as the "Ziegfeld of vaudeville." The main thing about "Keep Moving" is its pep, its punch and its ginger. CHAPTER MEETS MONDAY NIGHT Hammond Chapter No. 117. R. A. M will hold a special meeting Monday evening, June 24, for degree work. This special is made necessary because of candidates being called to the colors. The meeting will open promptly at 7 o'clock.

TROUBLE

[SPECIAL TO THE TIMES.] LOWELL, Ind., June 22.-For anthe sale and consignment of 300 pounds of granulated sugar to Rouse & Company, of Schneider. Lake county. Indiana, without reference to the official regulations, F. O. Savoie & Company, wholesalers of Kankakee, Ill., have been cited to the United States Food Administration, by Dr. H. E. Barnard, federal food administrator, for Indiana, with a recommendation that their license be suspended. Savoie & Company notified Dr. Barthat they had shipped the sugar and that a certificate therefor, showing the allottment of the sugar on the anshare of Rouse & Company, for the three months following July 1, would be forwarded later. Barnard says was a doubl This Dr violation of the regulations, first in shipping wiuthout first receiving the certificat and second in alloting sugar in anticof the distribution for the perfollowing July 1, which practice has been prohibited. This is the second interstate violathat has come to the attention of the food administration within a week the other being the Kroger Grocery and Baking company of Cincinnati. Dr. Barnard has asked the assistance of the federal officials and the adminisof Ohio and Illinois in breaking up the practice of ignoring the food regulations across the tate line. POWERS ARE NOT MANDATO All hopes on the part of the city ofof East Chicago that the public service commission of Indiana will be of any further assistance in securing the construction of a filtration plant by the East Chicago and Indiana Harbor Water Co. have gone glimmering since the return of City Attorney M. E. Crites from Indianapolis where he went into the matter thoroughly with state officials whose knowledge an dinegrity cannot be questioned. It has been the consensus of opinion that the public service commission was in its organization, procedure and powin reality a court and that it could subpoena witnesses, hear evidence, give decisions, issue and enforce orders in a manner like unto that of civil courts, but investigation proves that this is true only in part. It seems that the commission can do about everything that a court can do exto inflict penalties for neglect or refus.il to carry out its orders. In other words that its powers are advisory rather than mandatory. This question was investigated beof the fact that the commission a year and a half ago "ordered" the wacompany to construct a filtration plant and at this time not an item of onstruction work has been done and C. H. Geist, principal stockholder in the company, says that it cannot be done, that the conditions incident to the war prevent the company from carrying out its plants relative to a filtration plant to purify the water of the city. "The question now pertinently arises, "what next?" HARBOR TO HAVE BIG CELEBRATION Indiana Harbor is preparing for a big time July the 4th. A mass meeting of the town's most influential business men was held an evening or two ago to perfect final arrangements for a glorious celebration on this day.
