which the fall celebration committee
can make back any of the money that

about that the admission price will
be raised. but this Is not true. The

"a and Arno act on the street. Gordon
and Reveni do an equilibrist act that
is absolutely unequalled. Their work
is Of the highest class, and their
stunt has an attraction from the start
to the flash whey they say good
bye.
The Weber girls continue to please
| with their act. They are about as
| dainty a trio OF girls as one would
wish to see, and their work on the
stage in the tent show is absolutely
without a peer. The girls have
novelty acrobatic act that is pleasing.
The Toxic troupe OF Japs puts on
some balancing feats that are daring.
to say the least Chairs. to them, have
THE faculty Of sticking together In all
kinds of fantastic attitudes, while
/ they perform their balancing stunts
on these nimsy foundations.
And then the Moroccan Arabs for
| the finish, give just the right ending
to a perfect attraction. These daring
athletes are whirlwinds of action and
their tumbling is out of the ordinary
and is performed in regular whirl-
wind style.
There is no need for people in the
big tent to stampede for the outside.

until the show is ended. A bomb
will announce her flight.
