When David Belasco presents
Frances Starr at the BelascO Theater
this week she will appear in a role
totally different from anything else
that she ever has played. In select
ing "Over the Hills" a new drama by
Hutcheson Boyd, for Miss Starr, Mr..
Belasco reached out for a play that
would enable her to give further eX-
preston TO her dramatic powers and
subtle charm.
During her remarkably successful
stage career Miss Starr has played
practically every kind OF a role, de-
plotting the human emotions in a very
wide range. Now. Mr.. BelsscO pre-
SCENTS Miss Starr in a part in which
she will be called upon, by subtle sug-
Eestion, to peer beyond the realm OF
life.
To support Miss Starr Mr.. BelascO
has provided a company OF unusual
excellence. including Ramsey Wallace,
Frederick Burt, Forrest Robinson.
Arthur Hohl. Edwin Denison, Richard
Cubitt, Edwin Dupont, John O'Brien,
Percy Haswell, Margaret Corral.
Mr.. Belasco has provided an elab-
crate production and will personally
direct the performances here through
out the week.
The usual matinees will be given on
Wednesday and Saturday.

REFLECT ROCK AND JOHNSON

AS the primary election campaign draws to close
the Signal would like to present few why the
people of Benson should vote for the present members
Of the Board of Supervisors at the primary election Sep
tember 10.
Among other benefits the community of Benson and
surrounding country have received from the present
Board of Supervisors is the completion OF the concrete
bridge the San Pedro river the Benson-Dra
COON Wilcox road cutting down the grade the Adams
Hill to easy and safe grade on the same rOad one OF
the heaviest pieces of road work that has been done in
the county, and making good road that will accommodate
the travel Of large of country leading thru Benson
The work being done the Pool road by the county
road outfit making good road to Benson for the
modation Of the settlements along the San Pedro river
north to the county line The building and suIfacing of
the road the Curtis Flat and the necessary bridge
construction, making permanent road for many miles
thru the ST. David valley and outlet for travel from
the southern and eastern parts of the county with a
shortened route thru Benson to the western towns OF
the state
The appointment of County Highway Commission
who selected the route thru Benson to the Pima county
line for the construction of the permanent graded high
Benson the main thorougfare for tourist travel for
the future Work this section will start shortly bids
for the grading having been called for.
There are good reasons why the people OF the
whole county should be interested in keeping the
members the Board Of Supervisors until all the pro
posed improvements throughout the county are complet
ed.
The old adage "It pays to swap horses In the
middle of the stream applies to Cochse county in the
coming primary election and to avoid such a mistake
one might seriously delay completion Of our proposed
road system all voters who eligible to vote IN the
Democratic primary Sept 10 should go to the polls and
vote for Vance NJ johnson and John Rock the two MEM
bers of Board 4 Supervisors who are on the
ballot for denomination. johnson and Rock have made

Red Cross Dance
Big Success

The Red Cross benefit dance
given by the young men Friday
night last, although quickly gotten
up, was a most seccessful and en-
iovable occasion, There have been
larger crowds perhaps on one or
two occasions, but from all accounts
none more satisfactory to the par
ticipants both home people and
those from out OF town.
Under the management of Mr..
c. j. Feeley, chairman of the COM
mittee Of arrangements, everything
worked out to a nicetY. H great
deal Of credit must be given to the
1adies for their part in making the
entertainment success.
Many out of town people express
ed to the managers their pleasure
at being there, and many avowed
their intention of returning on
similar occasions whenever possible.
A large crowd Of soldiers boys
from Fort Huachuca were present,
whose presence added a great deal
to the succe5ful outcome of the
dance. There were visitors present
from Tombstone, Bisbee, Tucson
and all the surrounding towns.
Chairman Feeley and his asso-
ciates of the committee are to be
congratulated on having given a
most successful affair, both socially
and financially. The net proceeds
for the Red Cross ftlnd amounted
to. over fifty dollars.
