Maurice Rosenberg and Harry Mil

We were greatly surprised to hear
that Esther Alling hal become doc

expected. While talking with her we
found that after trying her profession

A large electric sign in the next
star proclaimed that the three fairies
would be seen, next caught our eye.
OF course, Harry's attention was inn
1nediately arrested. Imagine our sur

were trying to produce custard pie.
When we saw sad rocking lady

prophesies, however, as the light grew
