THEATRES
.sStep Lively Girls,

This country had one of its mos
brilliant theatrical seasons last year,
and showed the most distinct adj
ance of any in a decade. Particular
ly was this true of the musical
comedy and revue section, ac-
companied by better standards OF
production. Burlesque, never a bit
behind the other kinds of stage pro-
duction, has accepted these standards,
and in some instances, has shown a
larger percentage of improvement
This Is especially true of Arthur
Parsons step Lively Girls which
will be at the Majestic Theatre to-
day.
Always of the highest quality. it
would seem that no better ~burlesque
show could be developed; but Mr..
Pearson seems to have taken a leap
very far forward this season in his
super-burfesque production. The best
proof of this is the presence in the
cast of this show. of Don Barclay.
His salary is. perhaps. the highest
ever paid a burlesque comedian. He
was the featured player with Zieg-
fields Follies three years ago.. and
his success was so marked that Albert
deCourville took him to London
where he played sixty continuous
weeks in that eminent managers
revues in the London Hippodrome.
Barclay has returned to this country.
not as a player in any OF the So
called big legitimate revues, but in
his own native American standard
burlesque. Both Mr.. Pearson and
Mr.. Barclay are to be congratulated
on the achievement.

Farm Federation

The preliminary work of getting
ready for the second annual conven-
ton of the Indiana Federation of
Farmers associations, to be held at
the Masonic Temple auditorium in
Indianapolis, Nov. Is. has been started
by the officers of the organization.
The present indications are that the
convention this year will surpass by
far any meeting ever held in the state
of Indiana by farmers, and there is
every reason to believe that the COW
eted goal of a 100 per cent. organized
state with go counties officially repre-
scented by accredited delegates will
have been attained prior to the con-
vention date.
Arrangements have just been COM
pleted by the state organizers for the
formation of farmers association in
Brown county. Charles A. Sims, of
Odon, and Joseph Ratliff, of Blooming
ton, have been assigned by state Off
GERS to make campaign of Brown
county this week. The addition of
! Brown will mean that every county in
the state is either organized and affili-
ated with the parent body or in the
process of organization, all of which
has ben accomplished in less than
two years of activity. The exact date
| of the birth Of the Federation was
March 25, 1919.
The first committee work as pre-
| liminary to state convention activities
! was accomplished during the last week
7 when the special committee appointed
by the executive board to draft pro.
posed changes in the state constitu
ton ment at headquarters and consid
cred the recommendations 1t will
| make. These recommendations for
changes in the constitution will be
submitted to the board of directors
whose approval must be met before it
goes to the state convention for rati
| fication. A two-thirds vote of the &C.
credited delegates is necessary @
make any change in the constitution
| The committee on constitution changes
was made up of E. E. Reynolds, chair
man; Scott Meiks, Shelbyville, and E
| A. Williams, of Lebanon.
Considerable rivalry among the var
ious county units for leading the state
in the way of membership has been re
! ported and there is quite a bit of spec
| ulation as to which county will have
