Theater Under New Management.

The Why Not Theater, one of the finest in the State, is now under the management of John Seifert, of Dayton, Ohio, experienced theater man. William R. White, one of the best theater managers ln the State, who had charge of this amusement place from its first opening, resigned a week ago to devote all his time to other work. The Democrat office has the honor today of charging the first electric auto that has ever been driven over the new cement road. Hoosier Motorist Another county seat was connected up with Indianapolis by a hard paved nignway, wnen the last of the con crete link connecting Indianapolis and Greenfield, in Hancock county.

was opened ror traffic. A celebration over the oneninsr of this road was held at Greenfield Thursday, November 3, officials of Hancock and Marion counties, city officials and representatives of the iioosier Motor Club participating. Declaring that this road is now the 'Main street of the Nation not the main street of Gopher Prairie," -Mayor Ora Myers, of Greenfield, in a telephone message to M. E. Noblet, secretary of the Hoosier Motor Club, added: "This" is going to be the great white way of this continent, and Greenfield celebrated properly.

Invitations were sent to all State officials, Marion county and Indianapolis officials and officers and members of the Hoosier Motor Club and the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. Wholesalers and manufacturers of Indianapolis were also invited." The celebration was held at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, with a big automobile parade, music and decorations. A large force of men is at work erecting guard railings at numerous embankments along the route. It la stated that more railings are necessary on this line between Cumberland and Philadelphia than is usual in State highway construction," but It is pointed out that these railings, which are to be painted white, will be a real safeguard to traffic. From Greenfield east to Dublin no paving construction has as yet been undertaken, but there is considerable bridge work being done in advance of the new grading which will begin next spring.

At present, there are short detours as follows: Between Greenfield and Charlottesville, two detours around bridge construction work; between Knightstown and Dunreith, one detour; near Lewls-ville, one detour and one detour near Dublin. These detours are apt to change as the work progresses, and other short detours, also, may be expected, but detour routes generally are in good traveling condition. The opening of this Greenfield section forms another forward step ln the hard surfacing of the National Old Trails Road entirely through Indiana. There are now completed approximately forty miles of pavement on this high-way between Indianapolis and Terre Haute. The hard paved mileage east of -Indianapolis consists of twenty-one miles to Greenfield, and approximately twenty-one miles between Dublin, in Wayne county, to the State line east of Richmond.

The Old Trails Road is then paved from the Ohio State line to Dayton and from Springfield to Columbus. From Columbus on east to Washington the route is all hard surfaced. West of Terre Haute the" route is all hard paved with the exception of a few miles, all the way to St. Louis. By this time next year the entire National highway will have a hard surface from Washington to St.

Louis, and perhaps even farther. A movement is now under way, being fostered by the Hoosier Motor Club, to have Congress declare this a National memorial highway because of this historic interest in this trail. CURRY'S CHAPEL. Mrs. James Bussell and Bon, were in Indianapolis Thursday.

"The Whirl of New York." "The hirl of New York." thirty -first big attraction to be produced by the New York inter Garden, will be the offering at the Murat Theater, Indianapolis, for one week beginning Monday evening, November 14. And of the thirty colossal entertainments that have preceded it, this one is the first to depart from the rev.ie ami extravaganza type which the inter Garden has become famous. "The Whirl of New York" is a musical comedy with a real plot running through its entire action.

Tins departure seems to have filled a desire on the parj of the Winter Garden followers for a change in style, for ever, tired business man" becomes surfeited with one kind of amusement diet the same as he tires of one kind of pastrv. "The Whirl of New York" tells a real story full of love interest and comedy. And its score is filled with a variety of musical gems wliieh run the gantlet from the modern "jass" and smart tropical songs to the good old-fashioned ballad so popular in the gwd old days before the war. And it is in these older stings that the public seems to find its great delight. They are of the tuneful and musicianly order that makes them impressive and easily remembered and at every performance the aduience leaves the theater whistling and humming their catchy refrains.

There are two big acts and seven colossal scenes in "The Whirl of New York" gorgeous and colorful in their settings, while hundreds of magnificent costumes are displayed on the beautiful living models. And these models the chorus Where do the Mesrs. Shu-bcrt get so many youthful and beautiful choristers? One would think that with the vast number of girls constantly used in their many musical shows that the supply would be exhausted. But it seems to be inexhaustible. There are fifty or more of these beauties in "The Whirl of New York" and even more care than usual has been necessary in this case as each girl must possess a good singing voice.

A cast of more than ordinary excellence has been en- gacea tor 1 tie niri ot iorK and its international importance includes Roy Cummings, Nancy Gibbs. J. Harold Slurry. P.ard and Pearl, Florence Mayfield. Teddy Webb.
