NEW MUSICAL SHOW AT
 EMPRESS LOOKS GOOD
Bernard Opens With Many Laughs in
 His Hopper and Starts We'll

It looks very much as if the Elm winner in the new musical comedy company that opened there last night. The company is good one, we'll sup piled with comedians, a clean looking chorus and clean show. When one considers some of the recent things that have been perpetrated in the Suise of comedy, it is a relief to greet an organization of this kind
 Owing to the crowd which packed the house and the fact that we came late, we Were forced to view the per fOrmance from the managers roll-top desk; but not too far from the center of attraction to appreciate the fact that here was a musical comedy com- pany which will almost certainly prove a great favorite in Phoenix It is the kind of an attraction which the patrons of the Empress want for the warm weather. Their performance moves with snap and vim the songs are well sung, the costumes are clean and pretty, the comedy is not forced for this type of entermainment, and the principals display considerable ability
 The playlet last night was At Sara toga.' It might just as well been any where else. as long as it was at the Empress. for whats in d name when fun is fast and furious The audience only knew one thing, they were get ting what they wanted, and they en- joyed it to the limit. They howled at times: they enjoyed the singing, and they surely loved the chorus, and they gave so many encores and were so insistent in their demands for them that the second show did not get started until 10 o'clock
 It is too early to pass final judg- ment on Mir Bernard and his Merry makers. and in any case the public will do that without our assistance: but one thing is sure, they made the right kind of start. and if they will only continue to give the same type Ol tiltti lhstl llttA SeiNt ltlSl night. in the same clean may. they are going to stay here all summer and find that they are welcome. Phoe- nix has passed the stage where it finds amusement in frowsiness and smut. Some managers do not seem to realize the fact that things can be funny without being dirty. and that comedy that disgusts is a mighty poor asset. The town is just aching for a good clean show. with lots of girls and more fun: but it does not want smut, and the mana cement that hands it over the footlights is going to find his balance on the wrong side of the ledger
 Here's luck to a clean show.

 At the present time 300 South Sea Islanders are encamped on the 1.20O- acre ranch of the Universal Film Mfg. Company. near Universal City, living in the same kind of matched huts that serve as domiciles in their far off mid-Pacific home, garbed in the same meager habliments which characterize their daily existence on their native heath, and participant ing nightly in their weird. uncanny dances and incantations which are a part of their tribal ritual.
 The band of brown skinned semi savages will be turned over to the Panama Pacific Exposition at the end of eight months, and will be feature of the worlds fair to be held in San Francisco in 1915. In the meantime the film company, which will utilize the islanders for moving picture purposes is under s25,00O bond to insure their safe re- turn to the island from which they were brought to the United States. In order that the untutored band of South Sea natives may be turned over to the exposition official intact. armed guard is maintained over them.
