Local people Of the younger Sc;
have bcon cast for all the part, in the

have also been done entirely by local
pee pie working under the direction OF
Leon Luscher and Ward Baldwin, with
Mrs. Nupson and Miss Callaghan as
ASSISTANTS. New stage effects, alsu
t,lc work of Redwood Falls people will
add much to the attractiveness of the
production. The cast consists OF
nearly a hundred people. Various
music and dance features, choruses
and vaudeville's skits make for a
program which those VINO have been
prislledsed to see say is remarkably
cieyer fer amateur talent.
Tickets were put on sale MondaJ

for botn evenings oy afternoon. Th2
net proceeds of the two perfo: mances
will be given to the American Legion
under whose auspices the comedy is

Eacn of "the Boys" is the possess
sor of fine voice and their quartets
and solos are big part of the enjoy
able Program which has been loudly
piaised wherever they have given it.
In addition to this they include banjo,
-sdxaphone and marimbaphone music,
ria lologues and clever impe1 soma
tions. The program is varied enough
to suit all tastes and will be the best
program of this kind that Redwood
F ais people have had an opportunity
of hearing since last year.
The program begins promptly at
e.ght-fifteen o'clock. Tie door will
not be opened and no one will be
seated during the singing of num-
