THE SECOND ANNUAL ARKAN-
SAS VALLEY DRAMATIC
FESTIVAL.

FESTIVAL.
The Second Annual Arkansas
Valley Dramatic Festival is to be /
given at KinsIey August q, p, "a,
and 25, when Shakespeare'S roll
licking comedy, "As You Like It,"
will be presented by an enormous
company of over two hundred
persons. 1t will be the largest
ever made in the state. The per-
formanceS will be given at the
new Meadowbrook Theater. This
is an outdoor playhouse" OF
great beauty which the citizens
of KinsIey are erecting this year
as a permanent house for the
Festival which has become a
widely known institution in the
short grass country, resembling
in interest the musical perform
ances presented yearly at Linds-
borg.
"a Midsummer Nights Dream"
given a year ago last spring,
drew crowds from all over the
state. In a half-page write-up of
the play the Kansas City Star
said, at was quite the largest and
most beautiful theatrical produc-
ton ever given in western Kansas.
Kansans have a way of doing well
the things they set out to do"
This years performance is on
a much larger scale than the for
mer Festival and will, undoubted-
ly draw much larger audiences.
Gilmor Brown, of Pasadena, the
noted al freSco producer and
ShakeSpearian star, and Charles
Edwards, the clever character ac-
tor, are directing the Festival as
before and will apepar as Orlando
and TouchStone, respectively.
Miss Lucille De Tar of KinSley,
who made such a hit as Viola in
the recent Hutchinson DerfOrm-
ance of Twelfth Night" under
Mr.. Browns direction and in
which Mr.. Edwards also appeared,
will be RoSalind. Ralph Young
of Hutchinson, the states finest
baSSo, will play the singing role
of AmienS. Miss PerSiS Collie, of
KinSley, who has just returned
from extended study of aesthetic
dancing in Chicago, will direct the
large balletS and folk dances. The
support of two hundred will in
clude all the members of the
noted KinSley Players Club which
appeared most successfully in
many Kansas towns last winter.
The performances given at KinS-
ley are unique. We are glad to
learn that many from this city
intend to go this year.
Reserved seats may be secured
by mail from the Leonard Jewel
ry Company, Kinsley, Kansas.
Orders should be accompanied by
check, draft or money order, and
will be filled at once. As the out
door amphitheatre is one hundred
feet wide, and built on an inclined
plane, all the seats command a
perfect view of the stage. The
prices of reserved seats are sew
enty-five and fifty cents; boxes
seating six, five dollars; boxes
seating four, three dollars and a
half; single box seats, one dollar.
The management assures this
paper that if its readers 80 to
Kinsley they will find everything
"AS You Like It."

PITUESS PUBLICITY

million and half of men are passing judgement all
the time on automobile tires.
Every trouble affects them Every cost is counted And
most of them keep mileage records on odometers.
Each tells his results to ohershs praises complaints
Any tire which shows shortcomings meets hail Of furies
There are no illusions about motor tires.
Four million GOodyears have been subjected to these
piess comparisons For Is years these have stood the
glare Today they outse any other tire in the world And
they are this year gaining faster than ever before
in our history.
Don't you regard that rrefutable evidence that No

REAL NERVE AND
BODYBUILDING MACHINE

We believe Rexall Olive Oil
Emulsion is the best remedy made
for toning the nerves, enriching
the blood, building up wasted tis-
sues, renewing health, strength
and energy the best medicine
you can use if you are run down,
tired out, nervous and debilitated,
no matter what the cause. 1t
doesn't depend for it's good effect
upon alcohol or habit-forming
drugs, because it contains none. 1t
may not make you feel better in
few hours, but it will make you
feel better, We are sure, just as
soon as the tonic and food proper
ties it contains have a chance to
get into the blood and, through the
blood, into the rest of the system.
Pure olive oil and the hypophos-
phites have long been endorsed by
successful physicians, but here,
for the first time, they are COM
bined into one preparation which
as nerve food and builder of
strength and health, we believe,
has no equal.
If you don't feel well, begin tax
ing Rexall Olive Oil Emulsion to-
day and build your health and
strengthen your system against
more serious illness. TO conva-
lescents, old people, puny children
and all others who are weak, run
down or ailing we offer Rexall
Olive Oil Emulsion, with our per-
sonal promise that if it doesn't
make you well and strong again it
will cost you nothing. If we didn't
have the utmost faith in it, we
wouldn't offer it with this guaran-
tee nor even recommend it to you.
We are sure that once you have
used it you will recommend il TO
your friends and thank us for hay-
ing recommended it to you. Sold
only at the more than 1000 Rexall
stores, and in this town only by us.

PINE RIVER TOWNSHIP

1t may be of interest to know that the
real property of this township has in
creased in value during the last sixty
five years from $4,000 to $789,575, be-
sides $70,425 of personal property. There
are now in the township about $50
farms making an aggregate value of
S550000. Another splendid feature of
this farm situation is that large major
ity of these farms are occupied by their
owners, only 7S being rented.
The school population of this township
is now 487 and they are cared for by Ia
school districts in all of which school
is now in session. The land of this
township is practically all high and roll
ing and well drained. Many very at
tractive groups of farm buildings and
some really fine views of upland scenery,
make a drive through this township
