VARIETY IN VAUDEVILLE

1t is real show and not trial that
will come to the Rhode on Thursday
evening under the auspices Of the Navy
Relief Society of the Great Lakes
Training School. Jackies, who have
faced the footlights from old New York
to San Francisco, comprise company
Of all-stars, who have never played to
an empty house or failed to "put it
over"
There will be no hook in the wings
that night. Tt will be unnecessary. On
amateur nights it is only safety first
to have the weapon handy, but when
prof are playing it's only ex-
cess baggage and safer out of sight.
The latter contingency will exist on
Thursday night. AS consequence there
will be no failures or sudden exits. Ev-
cry act on the bill will reach grand
so become little part in a big vaude-
vile program, varied in repertoire but
uniform in artistry.
The latest reports from Lake Bluff
indicate striking progress in prepare
tions for the minstrel. The dispatches
read:
"With talent assembled from almost
every section of the United States,
many of them former headliners on
Keith IS and the Orpheum circuits, re-
hearsals for the Navy Relief Society s
Benefit minstrel and vaudeville show,
to be given at Kenosha, Thursday night,
have taken on the appearance of a fin
ished performance.
"The program will open with the
minstrel in which more than a score Of
the iackies will "sit in' the half cir
Gle. The vaudeville bill, following i'm
mediately will have " the musical jack
les, y quintette fresh from the Keith
circuit for a headliner.> Others on the
vaudeville program are:N G. H. Ware,
magician; G. d. Thebald, dramatic read
er, and O'Keefe and Kuhn, of the Or
pheum circuit.
"The after piece or curtain closer is
an Hawaiian comedy skit called "The
Blueiacket's Leave"
The wide variety of it's offerings and
the patriotic motive behind it's presen-
tation are more than enough to COM
mend the iackies minstrel TO every cit
izen in Kenosha With the opportunity
to see metropolitan vaudeville at price
of small town stock no one who knows
a bargain is going to miss. this chance.
Tickets are now on sale at Glerum S
Book Store. The price of admission is
so and rs cents. Reservations are 60
ing rapidly and choice seats will soon
be unavailable. People who realize the
"class" of the production are buying
early to avoid the rush. They know ex-
actly what the show will be and do not
mean to miss word of any joke or
note of any song. They are "wise" to
the Jackies way and expect two hours
of wholesome fun unmarried by anna
flourish crudities or grating inconsistent
cies.

For this reason Studebaker cars are probably
the greatest values on the automobile market
today, dollar for dollar of their prices.
The Studebaker FOUR is the only 40 Horse
Power, Four Cylinder Seven Passenger car
selling for less than 81 900.
The Studebaker SIX is the only so Horse
Power, Six Cylinder, Seven Passenger car selling
for less than ST 800.
In ratio to power Studebaker cars are very
economical in their consumption of gasoline.
In ratio to weight and carrying capacity, they
are very economical in tires -Studebaker owners
frequently get from 5000 to 10000 miles on
single set of tires
Studied accessibility reduces adjustment and
repair costs to minimum.
Studebaker's nationwide organization of thirty
two direct branches and $500 dealers, assures
your permanent service satisfaction.
Therefore, economy being factor-if you want
to buy wisely and well, it will pay you to in
vestigate Studebaker before you decide what car
to buy.

The Stmdeb0ker Car
Economy is a Factor

TCONOMYi is simply wise buying.
- 1t does not mean unnecessary sacrifice.
Economy is the very opposite of boarding.
For the very term economy presupposes the
purchase of necessities, of conveniences, of those
things that make for business and personal
efficiency.
Automobiles are necessities with many of us
professional men find them well-nigh indispens-
able.
Statesmen in various lines of business often find
their efficiency greatly enhanced by the use of
motor car.
To the family it means health, strength and
added vigor-it means increased happiness.
Anything that means all this is an economy
Therefore, the question is one of what auto
mobile to buy.
Studebaker is the largest producer of fine auto
mobiles in the world.
Studebaker's great resources, Studebaker's great
volume enable Studebaker to produce better
car at lower price.
