WILD OR TAME.

In spite of many academic dis
cussions, nobody really cares
what makes the wild eat wild be
cause the wild cat is no good
even when he is tame. But II
makes all the difference in the
world whether useful livestock is
trained or wild. The finest colt
in the world, product of the best
draft stock, is of little use to a
farmer unless he has been broken
to harness, is bride wise and
tractable.
A cow may be a champion milk
producer but she is oil compara-
lively little value if nobody can
milk her. A setter may carry
the blue blood of Count Glad
stcne and have nose for BIRDS
that is unequalled but nobody
wants to hunt behind him unless
he has felt the jerk OF the tram
ers choke line and learned not
only to find birds but to give his
owner an opportunity to bag
them.
1t is exactly the same way with
dollars The county today is
overrun with wild dollars. They
are as numerous as the herds OF
wild horses and buffalo that used
TO roam the plains OF the west
and lust about as useful. IL you
capture them, all you can Go
with them is lock them up IN
cage to keep them from getting
out. destroying your financial
fences and trampling your gar
den plots. You cannot even
handle them without their get
ting away or doing you some
harm.
But if you tame them and
train them by continued and pa
Iient and regular investment IN
safe securities such as war saw
ings stamps, treasury savings
or Liberty bonds you
can make them work Tor you
faithfully and well. Investment
is the only known method OF srio-
DUNG wild dollars but it must be
safe investment. Like every oth-
or animal trainer you must have
patience and the lesson must be
ropcated until it is thoroughly

be seen in an entirely new musical
company at Grand Theatre Thurs
day night. The entire production, of
course, is under the direction of Man
ager Gus Hill who made it possible
for the Mahoneys and the other like
able characters of the universally
well-known comics to see the light
of day on the stage. The title of the
play is Bringing Up Father at the
Seashore" and is replete with original
tunes, screams, surprises, novelties,
and ingredients sure to arouse mirth
and laughter in a misanthrope. The
entertainment is divided into three
acts of speed, action and zest.

Bringing Up Father
AT Grand Thursday

Mr.. and Mrs. Jiggs", known in
the confines of the dailies all over
the country as Jiggs Mahoney and
his ever ubiquitous wife, Maggie,
the creation of that resourceful and
adroit cartoonist, George McManus,
will be the guests of honor in an en-
tirely new play entitled Bringing Up
Father at the Seashore" at the Grand
Theatre Thursday night. The action
of the offering, which is divided in to
three amusing and idesplitting
chapters, is sprinkled with liberal
arrangement of lively song numbers,
dancing, novelties and surprises and
enough action to require the services
of an excellent chorus and consid-
cradle cast. OF course, the Mahon-
eys, like other newly-rich people, ar,
pestered by rare and annoying para
sites who endeavor to mulct them
out of their well-gotten fortune. This
serves for the introduction of compli-
cations, situations, wit, repartee and
bright lines and sufficient speed to
keep the auditor from falling asleep
or suffering from ennui. There is
something, doing every moment with
the result that Bringing Up Father
at the Seashore" is certain to be
termed high-class and unusual enter
tainment, reaching the acme of per-
lection and satisfaction. Manager
Gus Hill, who was the first to place
the Mahoneys on the Stage, is spon-
sor for this unique and triumphal
production. This alone should insure
a production deluxe.
