Sells boys started a wagon show Mrs. Colby declares the riders eXcelled those of today.
 As she talked over the old days" yesterday at the home of Mir. and Mrs Frank Stewart where she is a guest for a few weeks. Mrs. Colby told many intimate little stories of the circus al though she herself was never con- nected with it and her brothers were only lntersted in a financial way. "Our father was a strict Methodist and you can well imagine what shock and disappointment it was to him to have the hoys connected with a circus He, however became recOnciled and even went so far as to attend a performance and better still, enjoy it. My eldest brothers were in the auction and com mission business and their wagon gen. erally followed the circus or found it's way to the small towns and villages where a fair was in progress. This gave them their idea of starting a cir GUS and with a small capital and 2 very few wagons. they visited town after town. Two other brothers a farmer and a newspaper man, joined them and they struggled along for some time and then decided that they could afford to buy ar elephant. You see when they began they could not consider purchasing an elephant and it was their greatest ambition. They agreed on the price, 5000 and l will never forget the day when the elephant terrible blow to the boys and after Investigating, they found it had been tubercular when sold them. While they had to stand part of the loss they did not mind that half as much as the long wait before another ele- phant landed
 The growth of the circus, she said was rapid. There was little compe- tition you know-just Barnum, Fore paugh and Robinson and belore long the boys little wagon show" had de- Veloped into two organizations the Barrett and Sells Brothers. I believe they first introduced the Loop the Loop feature but in offering this they did not engage trapeZe performers and riders. Do you know the acting al the present time can not compare with what we had some thirty years ago. ! suppose this is because they have to

 Mir. George w. Anderson of Mesa will portray the role of the gay old sport Jir1 Johnson and the character comedy role will be entrusted to the old min strel man, MT Charles A. Miller. The latter will sing some old favorites in Act Two. Between acts two and three. Mr. Anderson will render selections and Miss Richards will vocalize in Act One.
 Miss Anna Monihan who does the leading juvenile part is one of the most talented ladies in Phoenix She has already made her mark and needs no introduction to our people. Miss Ida Mae Golze is best known by hel High School work and shone brilliantly n many of their plays. Miss Violet Richards is the "soubrette' of the play and sine is there with the goods" Her style is reminiscent of the day when the ladies of the Lotta and Maggie Mitchell type reigned paramount. MT Wilson has found her an apt pupil and her friends will be there by the basket full Miss Eggleston has an armful in the part of Mrs. Bouncer. It is a character part, pure and simple and it requires an artist to play it. Those who have seen Miss Eggelston in parts of similar nature, are not fearful of the result of her work.
 The star part of Dick TOmpkins, the poor married man will be played 1 by Frederick H. Wilson and as he is regarded as one of the most versatile comedians who has ever graced the American stage, we may expect an
 evening of enjoyment Earl Ullom and : E. J. Jacquemin are most happily cast and will more than give an account of l themselves.

PUBLIC DEMAND FOR BETTER PRODUCTIONS MET BY AMER iCAN ENTERPRISE AND
 BRAINS

The rapid growth Of the business of producing motion pictures has brought forward new groups of picture makers to succeed the olcer companies and be- cause of the superiority of their produc- tions they have risen to high plans almost within a few months. A not able instance is the Metro Pictures Corporation whose progress in r months has placed it at the very top as a producer Of great photo dramas.
 The Metro group includes four great producing companies, namely, Columbia, Rolfe Photopays, Inc, Pop ular Palys and Players and the Quality Pictures Corporation. The Metro dis tributes the entire picture product of these companies and their star list in cludes such notable players as Fran

ARE YOU A MOOSE" WILL BE
 GREAT PRODUCTION

Miss Bernice Eggleston will play the part of Mrs. BOuncer in the forthcom ing production of Are You a Moose?" at the Elks Theater Apri; 2S-2a She Is one of the most promising of local players and is well and favorably known by theater goers of Phoenix
 There IS nothing of the novice in her work. On the contrary she ex- Lloits a finish which will sI eedily place her among the number of ladies who have brought honor, fame and for tune to their door Many of her best scenes are with Mr. Wilson, the pro- ducer, and the latter does not regard Miss Eggleston in the light of q foil for himself.~ She makes me hustle,' is what he told the Republican man, and splendid opposition makes for success in lines histriOnic as well as commer- cial.
 We take great pleasure in quoting the words of the veteran actor and producer, Frederick H. Wilson: Never in all my experience with ladies of the non-protessional type, have l seen one so young in point of years, sail into a character part Of that dimension with all the confidence and skill of an actress of twenty years experience"
 What is more. MT. Wilson meant what he said
 Besides Miss Eggleston, the follow Ing ladies will participate in the play: Miss Anna Monihan, Miss Violet Mae Richards and Miss Ida May Golze The play Are You Moose will be staged i hI the veteran actor Frederick H Wilson and he has fine tooth combed the city in the task of finding types who are capable of being moulded tc rls style CT direction.

pay such tremendous salaries for the star acts The old ring attractions will outlast any new feature for they are the real foundation of the circus.
 The Sells family is no longer con- necte6 with any circus. There is only one grandson living that bears the name and he is lad of ter. At one time boy who became known as Will lie Sells was under the protection of the Sells brothers and was owner of the Sells Floto show but he, too has passed on.
 Will the Birth of Nation come to Phoenix? That question is being asked right frequently nowadays. Tue son, usually tagging little behind in the matter of ip-to- date pictures is at present revellins in it's historical glare. Starting last night and continuing for eight days and nights. residents of the old Pueblo are going to be hosts to the greatest picture ever made. Will Phoenix have the opportunity, is being asked over and over again. Ed Red mond lessee of the Elks has said yes. He has stated this several times, and Is ready to back his word with cash. In fact he has retained an attorney in an effort to make the city powers sec their mistake in barring the picture. Whether he will attain his object yet remains to be seen If the picture does come it will be at the Elks for two solid weeks. With it will come 32 piece orchestra, playing music com
