ELKS MINISTRIES TAKES PLACE TONIGHT
THE STREET PARADE WILL TAKE PLACE AT
 NOON.

Today is the busiest day in the year as far as Hot Springs Elks are con cerned; today is the opening day of their annual minstrel show. and be- ginning with the big street parade at noon until the final curtain of the show tonight, Elkdom will be "up and at 'em" every minute, today. The street parade will be the regular min strel parade, and the boys who will do the Al. C. Field stunt tonight and tomorrow night will traverse the main streets attired in the regular long minstrel coat, high silk hat, spats and canes. If you want to Took 'em over be sure to be on hand at noon, for this years minstrel com pany is some snow."
 The final stage rehearsal will be held this afternoon, and tonight al S:30 sharp the curtain will rise on one of the most brilliant scenic and costume displays ever seen here either at an amateur or professional mlnStTel show.
 When the seat sale started Satur- day there was a big demand for choice seats, but owing to the fact that the show this year will be two nights. the first night was not sold out. This did not, however, keep the more enthusiastic Elks from starting a report that the house is all sold out" but this report is absolutely without foundation, for there are hun. dreds of seats left for both nights, and if you haven't reserved yours as yet, you better get busy at once.
 By looking over the following pro- gram one can easily see what a great treat is in store for Mir. and Mrs. Elk Audience tonight, and those who don't get to go tonight will do well to begin reserving their seats for to- morrow night.
