The audience was quick to catch

every number on the program was

work for amateurs as public enter

ing encores, among them being kitty
McGee' and the affecting tale of a
sir! named Hannah and who slipped
on a bit of banana. The chorus
voices blend well together. OF course.
the bass voices are light, but good,
considering the youth of the sing

dolinstes,' Lehar's "The Spring Maid"

WHY THE HELLO GIRLS IN
PARIS ARE SO VERY SLOW
Manager says They Are Married and
Their Minds Are on Babies
and Troubles.

Paris.-New York continues TO be
the model for Paris in its attempt to
improve the public telephone system.
Actual tests made here this week
by reporter show that the average
time a subscriber is forced to wait
for a connection is one minute and
twenty seconds. Taking this as
basis for singing criticism the writer
asserts that the average time for
such a connection in New York is six
seconds.
In answer to this demand for re-
form, Director Bouchard of the tele-
phone system says the Paris average
H. rarely only twelve seconds, but he
hopes to rival New York by improve
ments now underway. He says one
reason for the slowness in Paris may
be because here the telephone girls"
are often married women, who are
thinking of their babies or troubles
with their husbands when a call is
made for a number. He says New
York only employs unmarried women,
who are quick. eager and obliging.
He does not say whether beauty is
also a requisite for New York tele-
phone girls as well as youth and cell
bacy.

.ELKS SECOND NIGHT
A HUGE SUCCESS
CROWDED HOUSE ACCORDS
MINSTRELS ANOTHER OVATION
Fresh, Timely Local Jokes, New Songs
and Other Changes Immensely
Please Large Audience - Lodge
Much Gratified.

Another big house greeted the sec
ond nights performance of the Eiks'
Ministries. and Keefe's whirlwind
merrymakers were accorded another
great ovation, Many the audi
ence had seen the first performance
but their enjoyment was just as keen
and their applause ust as loud, for the
many new features introduced last
night made the show almost an en-
tirely different one.
In the first half of the program,
the end men sprank a series of fresh
jokes and their songs were all new
and their applause just as loudfor the
night The only repetitions were the
baby dolt' stunt by Lee Drake and
Aubrey Graham and the jungle song
of Jim Estes. these being put on again
because of the insistent demand, and
be it said, they provoked Just as
much mirth as on their previous APP
pearance
Jack Watson was among the best
of the laugh producers last night
with his "Oceana Roll" and his Irish
negro dialect. Jack Urquhart's ma
neuvers with "Alexanders Ragtime
Band" was another of the applause
drawing features while Bill Bailey won
a hand with his song, ;:If You Talk
in Your Sleep"
The balladists, Frank Hays singing
Good Night" Charles w. Meighen,
THE King of the Deep" and James
p Neal sands of the Desert" COM
pleted the first part and the excel
lence of these numbers was extraordi-
nary for a home talent production.
The olio, with the exception of the
grand finale which was the same as
on the previous night and which
brought forth the same enthusiasm,
was entirely new. After William
Withers, "the human clothespin,"
had entertained the audience for a
few minutes with a monologue, Jack
Keefe and Jim Neal presented their
rathskeller act which was one of the
best features of the two evenings
Keefe's remarkable ragtime ability,
coupled with Meals wonderful BARI
tone voice make a combination which
would delight any audience in the
country and would bring the two men
good salaries if they would CONNER
cialize their entertaining powers.
Altogether. the two performances
We're huge successes and to that fact
the Elks and the t ownspeople are
much indebted to Jack Keefe whose
indefa,iguable labors brought it about.
Praise also is due 10 the many others
who contributed their time and talent
to the event and in this general mem
ton the name of c. Z. Roosevelt must
not be overlooked for as interlocutor
