IELK.SREHEARSA[
PROVES. SUCCESS.
Popular Song Hits and
Speciality Acts Among
Features

"Then III Forget" Mandy and
me-" Somebody's Mother"
Brother Low Down." and NO
bodys Fool" will be among the
feature musical numbers OF the
Elks' minstrels at the Hippodrome
theatre for four days beginning
next Tuesday. That, at least, was
the concensus Of opinion Of those
who witnessed the full rehearsal
last evening.
With Bob Smith, Charles Borne.
felt, Paul Cumpston, June Orr and
DR.. Arthur j. st. Lawrence as the
chief soloists OF the produc lion,
the popular song hits promise to
be put across the footlights in
snappy and entertaining manner.
Although the musical numbers will
be the outstanding features Of the
mtnstrcls, the comic. dialogue. will
not be completely overshadowed,
From the beginning OF the show
until the final curtain, there will
not be dull moment for the audi
ence. Not only will the jokes be
devoid OF WORKOUT humor, but
there will be just enough local
color in the black face banter 10
add great deal OF zest TO the en-.
tertainment.
! Numerous surprises are also
Z, promised. When the audience least
expec.s flash OF wit, It will be
taken off It's feet with a bright
thought from one or two of the
comedians. The most attractive
feature of the entire program,
however, is the fact that numer-
GUS comic sketches, specially acts
and ragtime skits are interspersed
throughout the production. For
this reason, It is the belief OF those
who have watched the rehcarsals
hat the show will prove by far the
best home talent production that
has been seen here in years
Although the opening night Of,
the production Is a week off, the
rehearsal last night showed few
rough spots, and those few were
greatly overshadowed by the many
bright spots OF the entertainment,
With Fred Doringer, the director,
supervising the rehearsal, tho
black face carnival was reviewed
without a hitch. Throughout the
entire show, a touch Of profession.
alism was evident, and the predic-
ton was made that when the cur.
tain went up on the opening night
next week the audience will find a
we'll trained cast, equal to many
and superior to quite a few min
strel shows on the road.

Merriam herself was not going. She
was trifie peeved that John intend
ed to go without her. Though Mer-
riam felt like the most experienced of
wives, she still had much to learn
about men and parties. 1t had not
yet dawned upon her that a husband
always wants to go to a party that
his wife does not want to go to, and
never wants to go to a party that his
wife does want to go to; that all old
wives are exceedingly cunning on
this point. and always cry loud and
clear the exact opposite of their in
tentions!
Merriam had forty-two unimport-
ant reasons for not going to the gar
den party, and one very important
reason for not going. OF course. she
had mentioned the least important,
which seemed quite inadequate as an
excuse to John.
She said that she hadn't any clothes
suitable and that he hadn't any
clothes suitable for so formal q func-
tion.
John protested. II think it will look
beastly unneighborly not to go.
