then righted itself and travelled swiftly
through the water parallel with the

IN THE THEATERS

The program put on at the Grand
theatcr last evening is winner.
There's no getting away from that
fact. To conccdc that it was all to
the good would be but putting the
matter mildly. 1t was surely there.
The Noles Brothers introduced some
startling and difficult features into
the aCrobatic forms of diversion. They
executed some very difficult and in
teresting fcats that We're warmly APP
plauded. Their act stands distinctly
out from that of the usual act of the
same nature. To see them is to en-
joy them. Sharing honors equally
with them came the Naples Trio" of
harpists and singers. They are each
possessed of exceedingly sweet toned
ity to use them to the pleasure of
their audiences. Theirs. like the Noles
Brothers act. is not. to be linked with
the usual conception of an act of the
same stamp. The motion pictures, as
usual first run, are of very good sub
tects.
Master George Young n local ju-
venile of more than usual talent, won
for himself a great deal of applause
last night by doing a mixed acrobat
ic dancing act. Master George is, as
indicated by his name. very youth
full character, but the act he had to
present to the audience was capable
of putting shame to some vaudeville
actors of years and experience. Aside
from the applause George received
there was a great deal of loose change
flung to him from the audience and
each contribution was gracefully
acknowledged and deity picked from
the stage floor by the recipient of
the tokens of appreciation and accla-
nation from his audience.

Non.SeCtarian Club
Uptown Feature
Members Believe Self
Help Is Best Is
Growing

The gynasium belonging to the
Mt. Pleasant church has been very
much appreciated by some Of the
young people of this community.
A basket ball team was organized
in January and the games were
made possible throught the efforts
of Mr.. Bert Smith, who secured
apparatus for them. The hall was
built about year ago or,social af-
fairs fthe church. 1t has also been
offered to the young people Of the
community for the same purpose.
"a club has been formed, which is
non sectarian. An enrolment fee
of one dollar is charged with the
dues Of five cents a week. "a Junior
club has also been organized, en-
rollment fee, twenty-five cents. The
hall answers the purposes Of a gym
nasium, having fair floor space
far the games, and galleries for the
spectators. The boys Of the club
show the proper spirit. They want
to increase the club membership.
They hope to enlarge the hall max
ing it still more suitable for games,
and they also hope to be able to add
tennis and base ball to the sports
in the spring. When young people
organize and work together a great
deal may be accomplished and a
great deal more pleasure antl
strength may be derived from the
work than there would be if fully
equipped building was to be given
to them at once. The civic clubs
in our large cities recognize the
fact that, to make worker Of each
member makes that member a
strong citizen. The boys Of the
Mt Pleasant club have started IN
the right way. Great things often
come from little beginnings. There
are ways for us to encourage the
boys, which we should now con-
slider.
