heights ranging from four to thirty

the audience looks on with abatcd
breath. Their work is extremely haz-
ardous and their tricks are accom-

There are q number of other acts
on this weeks bill that are we'll worth
seeing. Keeney's is offering a show
for which the management has to
make no apologies In fact it is one
about which Boosting is excusable.
Competing with the Willards for
first honors is the Colonial trio, a COM
bination of talented singers. There
is much in this act that commends 1t
to q discriminating audience. 1t
makes a special hit with music lovers
as the singing is something far out of
the ordinary. While the trio rem
ders popular and classical numbers,
giving good mixture of each, 1t is
with the old fashion ballads that it
makes the best impression. The
singing of THE Last Rose of Sum-
mer" by Miss Ida Butler, the soprano
soloist, is one of the most pleasing
things that has been done here IN
long time.
Two classy song and dance num-

DeHaven and Bernie and Herman. In
both acts some lively patter as we'll

introduced.

A motion picture program, UP to the
