BIRD OF PARADISE
IN MINNEAPOLIS
STATE FAIR WEEK
Famous Play to Be Presented at the
Shubert Theater by Noted
Brainbridge Players
WILL BE IT'S ONLY
N. w. PRESENTATION

"The Bird of Paradise" probably
the most popular play of a century
and which has earned millions of
dollars for its producer and author,
will be the big, special Fair Week
attraction at the Shubert Theater,
7th Street near Hennepin Avenue,
Minneapolis, Mimi, for one week
starting Sunday matinee, Sept. 8.
There will be other matineas on
Thursday and Saturday. Night
prices are 30, SIS, and IS cents and
matinee prices 80, 40 and 55 cents
including tax. Mail orders will be
filled in order of receipt, if accom-
panied by remittance, and will be held
at the box-office for the patron or, if
so desired, delivered by mail. In the
latter case a stamped self-addressed
envelope should accompany the order.
"The Bird of Paradise" will be the
only spoken drama in Minneapolis
Fair Week.
Real Hawaiian singers, ukelele
players and hula hula dancers will
augment the large cast. The entire
mammoth production will be lavishly
staged and special scene when the un-
fortunate Luana throws herself into
the fiery crater as it spouts its
flames high into the air.
Managing Director A. G. Balm
bridge of the famous cambridge
Players selected "The Bird of Para
disc" as the Fair Week attraction in
Difference to the wishes of numerous
out-of-town thedter-goers, planning
a visit to Minneapolis Fair Week and
anxious to see this celebrated play,
which, with its unusual story of
love and romance, its pagan rites,
scenic splendors and triumphs of
mechanical effects, apparently never
grows old. 1t has been playd in
Minneapolis every year regularly for
the past eleven years and never has
failed to attract capacity houses.
More people have seen it twice and
oftener than any other play on the
American stage-and still they find
it moving. This season it will not
be seen in any other city in the
Northwest.

Sergeants Hill, Mallberg and Por-

NJ STRAIN OF JAZZ IN BLOSSOM I T|ME'
Real Melodies Assured Music Lovers In 0peretta Coming
 To Jefferson

In Blossom Time" the musical comedy problem has been solved by the Messrs. Shubert and the solution seems simple, so obvious that the wonder grows that it was so tardily reached for no jazz assails the ears in this charming operetta. In this musical play, the Shuberts have re- zealed a promised land, where mu- sical comedy is synonymous with grace and musical intelligence.
 Blossom Time" which comes tC the Jefferson theatre for thre days, Thursday, is a three-act musical play which has a score that was admir- ably adapted by Sigmund Romberg fromfrom the melodies of Franz Schubert, thus assuring music lovers real melodies. The piece has had European success here. as it did in New York city. where it played for two years. All the wealth of melody of which Schubert was master is poured in unstinted measure into this superlatively bountiful score. The dignity. tenderness and musical eloQuence of the great composer are manifest in a pretty story in which
 
 through the language of music. There are haunting measures of ''Un- finished Symphony" recruiting throughout--the Ave Maria The Serenade," "Schnusht." Song of Love-" are all embodied like radiant gems in this jewel of musical play.
 Dorothy Donnelly is the authoress of the book and lyrics, adapted from the original by A. M. Willner and H. Reichert J. c. Huffman has staged the piece under the personal direc- tion of J. J. Shubert.
 Mail orders are now being re- ceived and the seat sale will open today It is suggested that those who haven't already ordered their seats will buy them as soon as possible, for "BlossCm Time" has never failed to be r sell out everywhere and Bir- mingham will surely not break the record, being known as one of the best towns theatrically as well as in other ways in the south.

TERRACING SCHOOLS HELD

Three Bessemer schools have been selected to give demonstrations In terracing under the direction of ex- perts from Auburn and with the all of the county agricultural officers. These schools are Oak Grove, Con cord and Alliance, and in connection with the work, J. C. Lowery, county agent. has issued the following state ment:
 From November 12-16 Prof. L. c. LeBron of the agricultural engineer ing department, Auburn, Ala, Will be in Jefferson county conducting terracing schools in various com munities for the benefit of the farm CTS. Professor LeBron will go to farms in the communities desiring his work and show those interested the correct ways of running the ter race lines with level and will also demonstrate the best ways to throw up a terrace properly.
 Tt is his desire and the desire or the extension service to have men Tn every community in the county who can run terrace lines properly. When the condition exists that every com munity has a number of farmers who know how to lay off and ouiId ter races our farms will all be properly protected from the ravages of sur face washing.
 The vast majority of the farms of Jefferson county need terracing. Re- eardless of the soil building crops grown or the manures added little can be done toward soil improve ment so long as the land goes with out proper terraces. The county agents of Jefferson county are anx- ious to have every farm in Jeffer- son county that needs terracing put in proper shape this season. AL ready plans are being made to have such schools conducted al Oak Grove, Concord and Alliance. County Agent ]. c.
