! Nurrhv and Shys Passing Parade Musical comedy opened weeks en- gaeement at the Orpheo theater yes terday to capacity audiences, and to say that the show pleased IS express ing it mildly. The show is composed of stars that have been here beIofe and have hosts of friends among Pine Bluff theatergoers. William A. Young, the first one of the favorites to make his appearance was given hearty reception and had the audience with 1 him throughout the show. The other ! well-Nrown favorites greeted With hearty applause were: Robert Gerald and Don Moore, Jack Smoke Gray. Moore and Gerald sang their classical and popular solos in a most accepta- ble manner and responded to several encores. Jack Smoke Gray Is ! without doubt the best Elackface comedian that has appeared at the i ,Ohpheo this season, and he Is a comedian in all that the term ln' plies he makes you laugh and you really want to laugh and enjoy laugh ] ing. As one of our prominent off, oials remarked after yesterdays per l formance "I've often heard about "Bal' lin the jack" but never saw what it was until I say Smoke Gray. "Smoke" certainly does "ball the jack in his dancing speciality. Gus Shy, one of the owners and producer of the show proves himself to be a real producer and clever actor, his dance proving one of the many hits of the show. Last but not least, Miss May Riley, 8 fine looking young lady that i1 some 'blues" singer and cap- tivates her audience with her pleas ing personality. It never rains but it yours and this is proven in the case of the Passing Parade chorus. as they are without a doubt the cutest, classiest collection of girls that has been seen in some time. They all prove themselves to be clever dancers and pleasing singers. In short this is one of the best shows that has appeared here in some time and capacity houses will prevail at every performance.

DRIVER MUST REDUCE SPEED
to Prevent Numerous Accidents
at Crossings.

Repeated Investigations of accidents
at places where highways cross rail-
roads at grade show that many of
these accidents are due to the failure
of drivers to slow down as they ap-
Droach the crossings. For this reason
some public officials believe that the
roads should be so constructed ar the
most dangerous crossings that drivers
must reduce speed to Il low rate.
The California railroad commission
has recently sent to number of cities
and counties six plans for accomplish
Ing this, with request that they be
tried or at least criticized. In each
case there is conspicuous signal or
sign in the middle of the road near or
at the crossing, and the driver must
swerve to one side to reach the track.
In some of the plans, the driver must
make an abrupt right-hand turn and
another left-hand turn before the track
Is reached, so that slowing down Is
compulsory and not voluntary.

RAILROAD CROSSING IS NEW
Device Constructed by Clinton Oii)
Firm on New Princip!e-Operat-
ed Like Turn.sbie.

Recognizing the fact that ordinary
railroad track intersections are a
sourc" Of much severe wear on roll
ing stock and are repeatedly in need
of costly repair firm in Clinton, Ill,
has constructed II crossing for rail-
roads designed on new principle.
At each of the four intersections,
which exist where one track crosses
another. is placed I7,il only a few
inches long. which is mounted on what
might be- called miniature turntabir,
says Popular Mechanics. These four
short rails are all controlled by Il
single lever in The interviewing tower
nearby.
When u track is to b" set for clear"
these four rails are swung around 50
that they make continuous track for
the route which is to he travcrScd.
When the other track is to b" used n
movement of the lever swings the four
short rails around 81 that tn" second
line is ready for traffic.
Each or the four short rails Is
turned by a rack which mcahcS with
cogs in the side of its base. When
they are ser. each rail is locked by Il
simple device which keeps il in per
feet alignment. The jar which this
crossing produces and the cost of
maintaining it are said To be much
less than those ~ ordinary crossings.

Variety Used.

As an experiment, the Minneapolis.

road has planted trees along its right
of way To serve as snow screens. On
the south side OF the tracks, at the
sheltered points, there are four rows
and on the north side eight rows, 3
feet apart. The four rows farthest to
the north are willows and the other
rows on that side, in their order, are
box elder, green ash, popular, and an
other hardy variety. The tracts de-
voted to these living snow fences were
plowed and twice narrowed, and then
allowed to stand a year before the
trees were set out. A tree-planting
