many races with which her future
rests.--William Dean HowelIs.

THE GRAND

Loves Lottery, musical comedy
skit featuring cliff" Bragdon, tops
the bill for the first half of the week
and made a distinction at the three
performances yesterday. The last
scene featured the ever popular Ha-
Waiian dances and could be length
ened with good effect. The Muros,
who have a novelty china painting
act, opened the show and more than
made good. Bob and Beth gain favor
by their singing, dancing, and talking.
The Three Harmony Kings sing a
number of songs. The closing act is
rather startling presentation of the
Juggling stunt in which the woman in
the act does some great feats Of
strength and the man fjuggles furni
ture with an abandon which brings
forth much applause. His make-up
of Charlie Chaplin is one Of the best
ever seen here Mutt and Jeff In the
national guard and as airmen, fur
nish the movie part of the program.
