Starting with the scenic produc- [tion, which as usual is of the high- est order, down through the mem- bers of the chorus, this week's of- fering is an excellent one when judged on a stock company basis. This week the company has a number of guest artists, and also, | conspicuous by his absence is Ed- |mund Abbey, who is enjoying a well earned week's vacation. A number of specialty features add to the interest in the show, not the !least being Phyllis and Frank, two Everyone has | [bill is Johnny Brooks and Goodic | The revolver was also found and the clever specialty daneers, and Hilja. a European dancer with a strong jand astounding tendency to contor- tions, | Th ~ | Perkin those who learn.

An interesting sidelight on the Girl Scout drum corps is the faet| that the girls who played in the old championship corps, who will be home for summer vacation, are asked to meet at Walnut Hill park Sprague.
