Unique Farce to
Be at Page Theatre

Louis Bennison, supported by the
original company, in John Cort's
side-splitting farce riot, Johnny Get
Your Gun" which scored tremen-
dous hit at the Criterion Theatre in
New York last season, is coming to
the Page Theatre, Medford, Thurs
day, March 2S.
Johnny Get Your Gun" was writ
ten by Edmund Laurence Burke and
revised by Dorothy Donnelly for the
sole purpose of tickling the risibili-
ties of American audiences, and in
this respect has far exceeded the ex-
pectations of either its author or
producer. Johnny Get Your Gun"
has been even q greater success, if
such is possible, on its present tour
than it was during the metropolitan

In these days when the high cost OF
living pinches nearly every home. no
waste should be overlooked. One of the
most fragrant and the most easily pre-
vented. Is the destruction Of food by
rats. One rat will often do a hundred
dollars damage of food and property
in single night and careful esti-
mate gives over 5000 ooo.o 900 as the val
ne Of foodstuffs destroyed annually by
these pests. Exterminate them with
Stearn's Electric Paste and save this
enormous loss Of food A small box OF
Stearn's Electric Paste costs only a few
cents and Is usually enough to COM
pletely rid the house OF rats and mice:
waterbugs.
