Blackface comedy of the real type.
funny and amiable. Is the high card OH
the bill which moved into Loew's Ly-
ceum Thursday afternoon for the last
three days Of the week. The burnt cork
comedy is dispensed by LaFrance and
Kennedy, who are making their first
trip over the Loew circuit. Just what
can transpire between a sporty negro
manager Of a prize fighter and the prize
fighter himself can hardly be imagined,
but to hear LaFrance and Kennedy is
to get several good, hearty laughs.
Songs and a few dances, which par
take Of the newest brand, are the Of
fering of Mccormack and Irving, the
former a well-known ~funster, and Miss
Irving a pretty young woman whose face
often has adorned magazine overs.
Together they bring to the theater a re-
u that is altogether pleasing.
Maude Kellar is by nc means the
least to be reckoned with on the bill, for
Miss Kellar is not only pleasing to the
eye, but Is a singer of considerable re-
p,ute., Her songs range from jazz to
classics.
Others on the program include Cay
nell and Mack in whirlwind and aero
b11ic dances, and the Robbie duo, Two
athletes. one of whom is a native Mem
phian.
Something to Do" presents Bryant
Washburn in a comedy in which ar
idle young society man suddenly finds

much for any one man to spend on four meal. in one day in New York

for any ordinary Kansan in New York. The auditor has just begun to

duties connected with the return of the S5th division, and the men who
made the trip are going to find large holes cut into the expense checks

KEEP HIM

The people of Memphis, and especially those with children
in the high school, naturally are disturbed over the order from
the war department retiring Col. A. S. Frost from active duty,
which would mean that he will be obliged to give up his work as
officer in charge OF the Junior r. G. 7. G., unless the order is
rescinded. Col Frost has made an excellent officer. The people
OF Memphis have formed a real attachment for him. He is an
excellent gentleman, scholarly and typical of the best product OF
the army, His enforced retirement at this time would be unfor-
tunate for the school, and would be a severe blow to the splendid
organization of boys. We hope the people of Memphis will
insist upon the retention of Col. Frost.
