ATTENDANCE
AT LEGION SHOW


"The Jolly Tourists Express" two
act farce comedy given under the aus
pices of the Aubra Townsend Post No.
50 of the American Legion, was shown
at the Rex Theatre Monday night to
an audience which taxed the capacity
of the building. The cast of characters
included only home talent, and the ex-
cellent way In which the parts were por-
trayed showed the hard work and able
direction which had been given In Its
preparation
Especially pleasing were the numer-
Gus musical numbers, consisting OF so
los, duets and choruses. which were
abundantly interspersed throughout
both acts.
So well was every part played and
each number rendered that 1t would be
almost impossible to single out any one
star. 1t was one Of the best shows ever
given ty Hickman talent, and the audi
erce showed its appreciation frequent
" by the abundant applause.
Due to the success Of The Jolly Tour
lists Express" the American Legion will
probably lay plans for another play n
the future.
