NEW YEARS EDITIONS.
The Midwinter Los Angeles Times,

The midwinter number of the Los Angeles Times issued on Jan. 1st ex- ceeds all previous efforts with it's two newspaper sections and five magazine parts. By reason of its range of sub jects, wealth of information, illustra- tions and typographical perfection, and filled as it is with the big facts carefully gathered and conservatively expressed regarding southern Califor- mia it sets forth the features of that interesting part of the country in a most instructive manner. The issue is not only a decided credit to the paper that produced it but to that part of the country which it so ably rep resents. It contains TIP pages.
 The Evansville, Ind, Courier. c With its usual enterprise, the Evans vile, Ind, Courier presents an inter esting edition published the first day of the year.

The edition includes a section of drawings printed in colors and a most attractive rotogravure sec ton of the striking points of Evans vile.

FLORA BELLA" AT
 THE DAVIS TONIGHT
At the Davis Theatre John cort Will Present Tonight His Biggest Musical Success, "FIora Bella"

Here is something really refreshing and appealing to the eye and ear and quite magnetic. In fact Flora Bella is an offering that stands out as much recent times. The Hbretto is by Felix Doernann, revised and adapted by Cosmo Hamilton and Dorothy Don nelly, while the lyrics are by Percy Waxman and the score by Charles Guvillier, composer of The Lilac Dom ino, and Milton SchwarzwaId. Surprfs- ing as it may seem the story is neith- CT superhuous nor so puerile as to be an affront to the ears. It has a genuine, unhackneyed situation. The characters are people and not walking dummies. The comedy is plausible and the dialogue funny. What is still more astonishing. the lyrics as- sure you they were written by man who "had been to school, and do not produce in the listener the illusion Of 9 bad channel crossing. Then it has one of the most sparkling and lively scores, nnusicanly and not over or chestrated. Then again, Flora Bella is ci1arming1y mounted.
 The result is a wholesome departure from the deadly routine of ordinary musical comedy business and a spec favor of the piece as soon as the first curtain rises. The story has to do with a cabaret singer, an idol of Pe- trograd. who for a year without her former Identity pelnS knWn Tn her new surroundings, has been married 10 Prince Nicholas Demidoff of the Russian nobility. Her life has been irreproachabIe. but the two have made the mistake of not understanding the real desires of the other. She makes her husband fall desperately in love with her, eventually. by returning to her former cabaret life and posing as her own twin sister.
 The cast of principals will include: Eleanor Henry, Viola Leach, Lily I.eonhard. Edid Mason, Lynn Pratt. Guy J. Samsel, Julian Rubell, Ben GT-fnnel1 and Jack Bell. :.
 Prices 25, cents to $15O. Don't miss this show.
