cleuer Rural Comedy Opens
At Murray Theatre Today

Elmer Coudy. the comedian. who
made such hit In The Yankee Prin-
cess" at the Murray theatre the first
half OF the week, has just as enter
tanning part in Paradise Valley"
the production which the Voolfolk
Musical Comedy Stars opened today.
Coudy plays a young college student
who Is waiting tables in a rural inn
and the role gives him an opportunity
for "rube comedy" in which he is
unusually adept. Myrtle Deloy. who
had the lead part in 1.-THE Yankee
Princess" is just as attractive in the
new production, and shows her YER
satility by the manner in which she
plays a very different role.
Paradise Valley" is even better
than The Yankee Princess" The
play is rural drama with clever COM
edy lines and number of new songs
! and dances. II will hold the boards
al the Murray the remainder Of the
week.

 Extension of these bodies means the precipitation of the thing that stands for new legislation.
 One reason why teachers den't do
