 F.. B. Cummings and Jas. Harris were in Huntsville Monday.
 Rev. Chas Edwards filled his regu- lar appointment at this place Sunday morning and evening.
 Mrs. Mabel Phillips who was operat- ed on for appendicitis a few days ago + able to be up some now.
 Ben D. Gross and family of Eubou- Ia, Okla, have been visiting relatives here during the past week or ten days.
 Farmers are marketing a great many hogs and cattle since the drouth has gotten so severe. It is too bad they were not able to finish the stock ready for butchering before they were sold. This brings to our recollection that in 1916 they did the same thing and that last year there was q short age of stock and surplus of feed, which was hauled out of the country instead of being held and fed to the stock which would have showed far better return for the products of the country

FROM FRED BOWMAN

Mrs. J. c. Bowman of this place re- Iceived a letter this week from her son, Fred, who is at Camp Pike, and gives The News permission to print it. Fred was one of this county's se- lectives who left for Camp Pike in May and was recently promoted to Corporal. The letter follows: Dearest Mother and all:
 Received your letter yesterday. Was glad to hear from you and that you are all right.
 l am just fine and dandy and doing fine. l am as big now as I was when l left home. l weigh 165 now and am looking we'll I look much better now than l did when that picture was taken that sent you
 It is awful dry down here. Came a little shower day before yesterday, but not near enough. It is dusty now, but think it will rain in a few days again. It is pretty hot in the day tinS pdb iAOoL VI SiiC LiItS Ilic I1ISHIS are cool and pleasant to sleep but we have had some very hot nights, but not many. l have been sleeping un- der a double blanket for the last three or four nights and you know by that it gets pretty cool, but it is just fine sleeping then.
 We have moved back to our old bar racks where we were when we came here and will get a new bunch of men in few days. We went out on hike yesterday with bunch of new men. About a four or five mile hike with our packs and got back all right and feeling just fine, but some of the new men were almost all in. It was a pretty long hike for a new company of men but they will soon get to where they can stand it all right.
 l think that we will be going to the r''le range in few days with a com pany of new men, but my company will not have to do any shooting Wo will go along as instructors.
 The rifle range IS sure some placs There are so many men shooting you can't hardly hear yourself thinA You can't imagine how much noise there is unless you should go to the range. It is pretty hard work but you see quite bit of fun at the same time and 1t Is.,'t near as bad as some of the new boys think it is
 am in charge of quarters today and don't have very much to do only stay here at the barracks and see that no one comes in unless they have bus. mess or belong to the company. So you can see that l have an easy job today if l did have 1t a little hard yesterday l will be all rested up and in good shape for tomorrow, but to- morrow is Saturday and don't guess we will do very much. Guess we will drill in the morning, but tomorrow af- ternoon will be off and can go any place that we want to.
 We have plenty to eat and 1t IS cook ed well. We sure have got two fine cooks. the best ones that we have had since we came down. They sure know how to fix things to eat.
 I must close. It is almost time for me to go and get the mail.
 From your loving son,
 Corp. Fred o. Bowman.

famous authoress, Elinor Glyn, will be
the Plaza's main attraction for the
latter half of the week. Miss Young
is one of the most prominent and tai
ented film stars of the day and with
such vehicle as this masterpiece
of dramatic tension, local film enthu-
siasts should find much to satisfy and
please their tastes In the attraction
"On the Beach of WAIKIKI" a breeze
from Hawaiia with Princess Lila and
a company of clever natives of the
dreamy isles, will headline the vau-
deville program. Princess Lila is as
graceful and fascinating a dancer of
the Hula type as has ever appeared
upon the local vaudeville stage and
her supporting company handle those
ukeleles in manner that will be ad-
mired by all.
Ais and Dells in their screaming

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-06-05

Any number of crook plays have
been presented for the entertainment
and edification Of the pleasure seek
ers but pal O. Nine" now being
shown at the Lyric theater by the
popular Poll Players, is truly entitled
to the credit of being the foremost
from any point of view. Although
in reality a drama there is shown a
quantity of comedy of the laughable
brand and some rather unusual sit
uations which places this famous
production in a class by itself.
If the opinions of the critics of this
city are any criterion pal O. Mine"
is the best that has ever been pro-
duced in Bridgeport. One and all
were unanimous in declaring it head
and shoulders above any of its kind
which has ever been seen here and
the Poll Players deserve credit for
the manner in which they are inter
preting the lines.
Dudley Ayers, the popular leading
man, as Mortimer Hemingway, in
PRODUCES a touch of romance to the
part of the gentleman crook, the
smooth working, easy living, daring
gentleman of the black mask, that
holds a fascination for many women
and it isn't strange that Ruth" of
the little Ohio village should set about
to bring the light to the hero in pal
o. Mine" 1t isn't an easy task, how
ever, for Fate has many tricks in
store for both of them but the truth
of the old proverb: Honesty is the
best policy" works out beautifully in
the end and Joseph NoeTs latest
drama works out happily for all.
Next week will be the final week
of the season at the Lyric theater,
closing with the famous production
Uncle Toms Cabin" This is not
the old slapstick production but the
strictly dramatic version as approved
BY the author, Mrs. Harriet Beecher
Stowe.
