A GOOD GREED

T HERE HAS come to this of 1 flee a card with set of res- olutions For This and Every New Year bearing the signature of C. M Eason. Vice-President of the Hyatt Roller Bearing Company of Newark, New Jersey, which are so to the point, so wholesome and full of po- tential optimism and success and which if followed by the majority of people would produce such desirable changes in many ways that The Times prints it for the benefit of it's readers.
 Resolved:
 that I will not participate in
 pessimistic gossip regarding bus
 mess conditions
 that I will keep silent rather
 than add momentum to unfouud-
 ed rumors of discouragement.
 that I will consider the prob
 lem of readjustment as per-
 sona1 problem
 that I will do the job in hand
 with energy and enthusiasm
 that I will think most of the
 days work than the days pay.
 Is not this an attitude much more desirable to try and attain and much more likely to bring about good times and conditions than to take up the wall of the calamity howlers?

R|VOL! THEATRE IS

Largest Troupes OH Road
is Version of Authority,

The new Rivoli theatre is the best
west of Omaha and is unequaled for
beauty and convenience in this terri
tory, in the opinion of Ned Alvord, ad
vance agent for the Marcus Show OF
1921, who was in the city yesterday
arranging for the coming of his at
traction to the new playhouse early
next month.
IF Pendleton does not appreciate
the new Rivoli, then the Roundup
city is less wide awake than / think it
is," he said
There is no playhouse playing eth
er pictures or legitimate attractions
west of Omaha that for beauty and
convenience can compare with the new
Rivoli," continued Mr. Alvord. "Who
ever designed the new house knew his
business. Not only is the auditorium
ideal from the patrons standpoint but
the facilities provided on the stage Will
be equal to the staging of the biggest
attractions. We carry in the neigh
borhood of one hundred people and
require three baggage cars to trans
port the paraphernalia of the Marcus
Show While there are some larger
stages none are better or more COM
pletely arranged We will be able to
stage the Marcus Show here on the
same scale as at the Broadway Den
yer, where we are now playing, or at
the Heilig, Portland where we go from
Pendieton. The citizens of Pendleton
certainly owe Matlock & Greulich a
debt of gratitude for their foresight
and courage in providing a real city
theatre"
Owing to the unsettled business con-
ditions and continued high railroad
rates the Marcus Show of 1921 is th'
only big musical revue coming wes'
this season. There are a nuhber OF
high class dramatic productions com
ing to the Rivol but the Marcus or
ganization is the sole attraction of tht
girl and music" variety booked II
