We. the WaterwUrKs Committee OF
the City Council, and the Commit.
tee appointed by the Commercial Club
Of the City OF Ardmore, hereby state
that We have personally inspected
the dam at the city lake, and have
carefully gone over the Plans and
estimates Of Walter c. Dean, and We
unhesitatingly recommend that the
improvements outlined by Mr. Dean
and hereto attached be made.
We are confident that by making
the improvements as herein outlined
that the said dam vii. need no fur
ther repairs and will stand as long as
time lasts. A smaller amount OF mon
ey could be probably used in fixing
said dam; but taking into considera-
tion the tremendous Importance OF
the city lake to the city. and realiz-
ing the fearful consequence IL any.
thing should happen to said dam, we,
therefore. think 1t is the safest and
wisest course for the city to fix the
same as there will be no possibility
OF its giving away In the future.
The plans and specifications in
every detail and even the estimated
cost OF each item can be seen at the
office of Walter c. Dean, City Engi-
neer. Respectfully,

COMEDY AND MUSIC
TO FORE AT .ORPHEUM

There is surprising lack of diversity
on the Orpheum program this week.
Comedy is to the fore in seven of the
eight acts, while an equal number like.
wise offer music, either as the basis of
the act or in interpretations. Five of
the numbers are followers. and Stella
MAYHEM remains the headliner of the
bill this week as she was last. The
f.ayhew comedy is distinctly worth
while.
The newcomers are the Empire City
quartet, Orth and Fern In a musical
trifie," presented under the title, 'Sign
That Book" and the three Leightons,
playing "A One Night Stand in Min
strelsy" The quartet was awarded
first place by the audience. They're a
musical bunch this four; and one of
thon1 In a Hebrew makeup, seemingly
could tell a Joe Miller joke and get a
big laugh out of It. The others just
sing while the Hebrew just 1ests.
One of the Orth and Fern duo--I don't
know which--plays messenger boy,
while the other one plays the piano. If
you don't know what the act Is like
from that description your vaudeville
experience must have been sadly
neglected. The messenger boy member
of the firm has a comedy makeup and Il
comedy voice. The other one emulates
Rubinstein in playing the piano with
his nose and takes on the "Armless
Wonder by also calling his feet into
play.
The three Leightons arc variously
costumed as a porter. bellboy and n
n1instref man. The porter is the star
Of the aggregation. This act Is funny
Big things have grown from less as
witness the genesis of THE Ham
Tree" Incidentally the bellboy does
an eccentric dance that is the best

The stage settings were more than
ordinarily good, and with sufficient
number of rehearsals insures smooth
performance "Erminie" will be the
biggest success the Temple forces have
given.
The musical cult of Los Angeles has
treat in store for them in the coming
of the Damrosch orchestra on next
Thursday ant Friday evenings at the
Mason opera house and Friday after
noon at the Shrine Auditorium on
West jefferson street.
The programs as announced could
hardly be hettered including all
schools and classes of music.
The numbers range from the most
severely classical to the freest of mod
ern forms, and from the most abstract
and polyphonic to the lightest and
most popular
Damrosch in this orchestra has gath
cred band of musicians, every one an
artist on his instrument, and with UNI
limited rehearsals and such directing
as Damrosch is capable of, the nu-
sicians will hear as good an orchestra
as there is in America.
