seemed to need, and it has certainly
worked wonders for me. After / had

Arabs Like
Keokuk Folks

The six Moroccan Arabs, with Mula
Ahmud as their manager, like the
way the Keokuk audiences are 'stak-
ing" to their act. Mr. Ahmud smiles
broadly whenever people tell him
they think the Arabs are fine, and he
is being told that many times a day.
SO you can imagine the gentleman
wearing broad smile. The Moroc-
cans were brought to this country a
year ago in May by Ahmud.
The old gentleman in the group is
seventy years old. In his palmy days
Ahmud said he could carry as many
as fifteen men. He does considerable
work now carrying around five.
Ahmud said that lot Of his coun-
trymen were in the armies of France.
Chairman Renaud talked to Ahmud
in French this morning, and they had
quite sociable little ''gabfest." All
mud speaks six languages.
