manufacturer ard cement work con.
tractor of Daytona Beach. Mr. Van

times over its cost for the entire sea-
son. One instance of this is to ta
seen In the rand sale of five lots GU
of ten recently purchased by Mr.. Van

staunch believer in the value of ad-
vertising, but realizes that to be ef-
licient 1t must have proper attention
and therefore looks after 1t as he does
all his business interests, keeping 1t
right up to the minute.

Full of pleasing melodies, and of
fering an amazingly lavish produc.
ton, "The PrinceIof Tonight" enhanc
ed by the prestige afforded by the
presence in the title role of Tom Ar.
mold, should live up to it's record as
a phenomenal magnet for the playgo-
er when it appears here at the New

9Th. The large cast Of principals !. in
support Of Mr.. Arnold, evidences the
choice of the best to be had in the
musical comedy field, and the chorus
is typical beauty gathering OF girls,
who can sing and dance, and make the
audience wonder If the producer cor
nered all the pretty girls in tire
country. AS the Prince in the myth
ical land of Lunitania, wherein. he
succeeds in winning the girl of'ihis
heart, Mr.. Arnold, presents a por-
trayal with all the michievous twin
kles, apt witticisms and bubbling good
nature that won him so strong a re,
gard in the hearts of theatre-goers.
