An evening of fun was staged by the Bessemer Kiwanis club Friday at the Grand theatre, with the entire membership and their wives taking part. The entertainment was unique and was featured by many mirth- provoking stunts under the direction of President Gordon Vail.
 The members and their wives met at Beaver and Vance Shom company, where they were provided with favors in the form of large sunflowers. Re tiring to the theatre at o'clock, a special section was reserved for them. and after the regular performance the program prepared by the club was carried out.
 During the showing of several spe- cially prepared slides referring to club members, the ushers passed small sacks of tropical" fruit, which on being opened. were found to con- tain potatoes, peanuts and crabapples. Following this, George Bumgardne was introduced by Gordon Vail as picture, and much to Bumgardner' g surprise the picture" framed and mounted on toy wagon, was drawn across the stage by a small dog. In recognition of several Rotarians who were guests, the ladies present were presented with what was described as Rotary emblem consisting of an ice cream cone with q large green prune in the center
 Earl Smith, Barce Vance and George Stevenson were the hits of the evening, representing three Mack Sennett bathing beauties attired in bathing suits, and with Japanese um- brellas covering their faces. Their entrance on the stage was the oc- casion for a storm of applause. An other feature creating much merri- ment was specially prepared reel composed of odd parts of pictures taken around Bessemer which had been clipped from old films.
