Can't Transfer Character,

A great revival is ion at the
Mexico Christian church. The
song service is led by Mr.. Archie
Bailey and wife of Hutchinson,
Kan. DR., l.. w. McCreary is do
ing the preaching. His opening
sermon Monday night was on the
parable of the Ten Virgins. He
said that a great agnostic once
pointed to the fact that the five
Origins who had oil for their
lamps and to spare would not
share it with those who needed it,
holding it to be a teaching of
scltishmess, DR.. McCreary said
such an Interpretation missed the
mark, for the whole meaning Of
the parable was that Christianity
cultivated "forethougPt for
em1rC 2ncic1. " aud that the in
sullnce Of life and property and
reli gious consideration for one S
soul were alike and differed only
i'll degree, He pleaded the argu-
ment that as the wise virgins
could not in the very nature of
things give away the reserve oil
ii their vessels so neither could a
good person transfer his charac-
ter to another. Every person, he
declares, must grow his own
character.
The public cordially invited to
these services, which will be held
every night this week and next
week.

WOULD YOU TANGO

Dance of Cabaret Singer aud Dead
Woman High Light of
0rpheum Bill

How would YOU like TO do the tango
with dead woman?
Well, that is the high light of the
weeks orpheum bill The gruesome
dance is the climax of one-act Pa
risian fantasie by Maud Earl called
The Last Tango"
What with eNquisitely beautiful mu-
sic, half-dozen pretty girls, and
scenery from the Latin quarter of
Paris. the act is one of the most ar
tistic ever seen on the Orpheum stage.
1t opens with singing by the happy
go-lucky Bohemian crowd of lie Cou
Cou cafe. The plot is wrapped around
the return of former cabaret dancer.
who married a foolish old English
lord, to her former haunts. Her old
lover of the cabaret days is singer in
the cafe and she comes to lie Cou Cou
to taunt him. He threatens TO kill
her. but she tells him she still loves
him and they dance. Her purpose is
to stab him during the tango so as to
escape his vengeance.
And If you want TO see dancing
real dancing-you want to see Fletcher
Norton and Audrey Maple. the prin-
cipals. Just at the end of the dance
the girl tries to stab the cafe singer,
but another girl. who loves him. strikes
the assaSSin's arm and the dagger en-
ters the heart OF Lame. The police are
attracted by the scream of the dying
woman and demand admittance. II is
then that Lame dances her last tango.
To deceive the police. her old partner,
Bene, holds the dead woman in his
arms and dances about the cabaret
while the police are searching the
place. 4 little far fetched. you say?
Well. YOU should see that last tango
before YOU express an opinion. Au-
drey Maple is so cleverly held during
the police search that you wouldn I
know she was dead if YOU hadn't seen
her stab herself.

Rene, has a beautiful voice and her
singing adds materially to the pro-
duction.
