 THRIFT STAMPS AT
 RATE OF S1OO WEEK
FAIR STORES PENNY STAMP SALES MOUNTING STEADILY UPWARD AND TIME OF ONE cLERN NOW REQUIRED TO HANDLE THIS DEPARTMENT

Here C a fine record made by the Far store and the children of the dis trict in the sale of thrift stamps. Some two months ago the Fair store started penny thriIt stamp sale for the children. The little folks took hold Of the plan in a manner to delight the hearts of Messrs. Frankenburg & New man, and the business grew unIIl now one clerk is busy looking after the stamps ana exchanging the 5O-cent books Of penny stamps for real thrift stamps like the grown-ups buy.
 Yesterday the Fair store reported that the sale of these penny stamps to children from both the store and the schools wheer they have been placed on sale, totals $100 week on tEe average for the past ten weeks. Thus has most practical and patri- otic plan been faT-reaching and effect i've in it's results. These children who are buying so many of these stamps set an example for many Of their lag sins elders to follow.

BROADWAY FOLLIES RETURNS HERE FOR
 NEW ENGAGEMENT
CLEVER COMEDY, GOOD MUSIC AND PRETTY GIRLS MAKE THIS TROUPE ONE WELL WORTH SEEING, SAYS OUR CRITIC AFT FER SEEING PLAY LAST WEEK

That Broadway Follies show that held forth at the Orpheum most of the past week is coming back Monday night to play a return engagement in Bisbee. This is good news to the theatergoers here who like a show of clean class. The Review critic was prevented from attending the Follies show until its last night and hence was unable to sive it the writeup it well deserved.
 These Follies entertainers present a lively and clever performance clear through. The singing is far oboye the average and the costumes and grace of the chorus dancers are most pleasing. To this critic the best num- Der on the nightly bill is the trio sing Ing of the prima dona and the two sole male members. of the company. They stop the orchestra and depend upon their own class and talent to carry the harmony over the foOtlights to their delighted hearers. The Joan Of Arc" song was presented in a man. ner that only the true lover of mel ody and quartette singing can appreci- ate. It alone is well worth the time and the expense of spending an even ing with these hardwcrking and most deserving entertainers. The manager of the show does not depend upon rag time stuff and glitter and fro;h alone 10 carry his slow across. Old songs. sweet tunes and real singers form a part Of his program. He also has a fine orchestra that shoot classy Jazz music and major and minor melody with equal guesto and grace. Two real comedians add form to the music.
 This fOllies show is well worth the consideration and the patronage Of the public of the district.
