HARRY LUCAS, KING OF
FITNSTERC-IYRTC

Following the clever picture The Per
feet Model with lovely Audry Munson
in the lead, come the Musical Johnsons
with their rapid-fire &ylophones. These
Johnsons can certainly make melody with
the drumsticll. They range from the JAZZ
Ziest ragtime to William Tell.
Wilkins and Wilkins take one awful
tango lesson. They are real artists of the
wild dancing. The gentleman, wilkins,
takes in rather more than tango les
son, and keeps lots of fun running
through the act.
The funniest man who has been here
in a long, long time is Jimmy Lucas, in
his wild rawlings of 1920 Jimmy takes
the cake on rawlings. One has to admit
that he does rave, but it gets across and
brings home the laughs to beat the band
Tom Nawn surprises the audience as
well as himself when he turns genie
out of an Egyptian vase His little skit
is Irish all right, and very well done.
Charles Henry's pets are the most mar
Vicious animals ever seen here. They can

full dogs and their poses are very eff

SCANDAL" OPENS
TONIGHT-JEFFERSON

Tho much talked-of comedy. Scandal, -
with Emma Bunting. which has been
packing the Garrick theatre, Chicago, to
the doors for the past seven months,
will be seen for the first time in this city
at the jefferson theatre Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday and Saturday matinee
under the direction of Walter Hast. The
action of the entertainment from the
first curtain to the last is entirely away
from all traditions followed by the au-
thors of the so-called boudoir farce,
which possibly prompted o. L. Hall, dra-
matte critic of the Chicago Journal. TO
say: 1T is boudoir comedy, but incom
parably better than Twin Beds 'Parlor,
Bedroom and Bath and similar pieces"
Cosno Hamilton, the author, has o.
long list of plays to his credit, among
which will be remembered THE Blind
ness OF Virtue
Mr.. Hast has engaged q specially Sc
lected cast to present Scandal in this
city, headed by Emma Bunting

VARIED AND NOVEL.
BILL AT LOEW'S BIJOU

The claim of Loew's Bijou for live acts
of vaudeville was enhanced last night
by the production of "Luzon Love-, a
one-act comedetta. in which the dapper
young naval officer with his vocal abb
ity carries away the Spanish beauty de-
spite her love for grand opera. Her Sc
lections of famous grand opera pieces
intermingling with his snatches of rag
time, placed Carlotta and Lewis as real
headliners. Both have good voices and
pleased the audience with selections.
Harry Garland, burnt cork artist, has
some good comedy lines, and a very
pleasing voice, with tnat catchy synco-
pated tone that shows up best in rag
time and jazz music.
Fred Eckoff and Anna Gordan are
clever musicians. Eckoff, with his clari-
net from which he could make some
amusing sounds pour forth, was espe-
ciany funny, while his general demea nor
on the stage caused continuous laughter
The two Valdares, who opened the bill
with an eccentric cycling act on cart
wheels, did some difficult and clever
tricks.
The Three Westons, who depicted stat
ues of Greek art, were especially good
and showed wonderful control of the
nerves in their posing In a background
set off by green velvet, while their cos
TUNES matched the color of marble.
were hard to tell, whether or not they
were works Of art or just ordinary
humans.
The open Door, the photopIay fea-
ture, is dramatic in the extreme, and
the picturizations of the different. cfIarac-
ters of the novel by Garfield Thomp-
son are excellent. The picture is OF mys
terry and love, and of intense dramatic
interest and hold the attention of the
audience until the last link of the chair
of mystery is Joined.

HOUSEKEEPING SHOWER

A most delightful occasion was the
surprise Housekeeping shower given to
Miss Minnie Beckham at the parsonage,
1913 Avenue G, by the members of the
Philathea class of the Methodist Sunday
school and friends with the missionary
society as guests.
The library table was piled high with
various housekeeping articles, such as
towels, sheets, napkins, pillowcases and
beautiful spread presented by the class.
The gifts were presented to Miss Beck
ham by Mrs. ]. c. Persfnger, with an
appropriate speech. Miss Beckham has
been president of the Philathea class for
five years and is held in high esteem by
the members.
The guests were served sandwiches and
coffee in the dining room by Miss Doris
Nader and Miss Lou Sloan. Enjoying
the occasion were 60 women of the
church.

SOME IMPROVEMENTS
nv COW QUALITY
But the Records of Milk and Butter-Fat
for Washington County Were Small
During the Month Of August.

During the Month of August.
Although the records of the milk and
butterfat production in tho Washington
County Cow Testing association shows
up small for the month of August, the
work and the improvements in the asso-
citation are well worthy of mention.
More registered stock has been pur-
chased, four herds have been tested for
tuberculosis and one worlds record fin
ished in that month.
The registered stock purchased by in
diyiduals in the association is as follows
One Jersey bull and one Jersey female
by the Morse brothers of Calais; one
Jersey COW purchased by ]. G. Robinson
of Calais and Guernsey bull by Lewis
Bancroft of Calais.
The four herds, which were tested for
tuberculosis, lost only one animal. The
names Of the owners of the tested herds
are as follows: Mark Ladd of Worees-
ter, Christian Larson of Barre, Thad
Martin of Barre and Morse brothers OF
Calais. Several other herdsmen are
waiting now to have their herds tested
Nine boarder cows have been sold from
the association and seven mich cows
We're purchased.
The cow mentioned above as making a
worlds record was Shorthorn owned by
w. S. Martin of Plainield and made the
record contesting only with the Short
hons and is her record as a two year-old
Princess May, I'd, as she is named, pro-
duced 1925 pounds of milk and 4o0
pounds of butterfat. Records made by
the advanced registry test.
The cow tester suggests this feed ra-
ton for the mich cows now, based on
the price of grains and their food value
to produce milk and butterfat and should
be fed considering what the COW is pro-
ducng; Ground oats, 200 lbs, bran 100
lbs, gluten 200 lbs, and cottonseed loO
lbs. One pound OF grain should be fed
to every three and onehalf or -four
pounds Of milk produced and considering
the quality of the milk.
Only seven cows made a record in the
month of August of over 1000 pounds OF
milk or 40 pounds butterfat production
and this small showing is attributed to
the poor pastures which are usual at this
time Of year
