F, jeff Smith impaired a startling Sc
cret Thursday night to the boys at the
campers reunion which was held at
the Y. M. C. A. which he asked them to
keep dark but it seems best to re-
veal 1t SO that no young mfrn may go
to the Y. M. G. A. camp at Winthrop
this year without being fully informed.
jeff hated to tell the boySebout it but
they finally prevailed upon him to,
and he whispered that they-had pur-
chased a new washing machine. This
certainly got laugh from the crowd
as they had been on needles and pins
wondering what he was coming at.

time listening to his speech and when
he asked if the Kennebec boys were

City hall auditorium, it was an
nounced Thursday that a team of
clever econtortionists and comedy
acrobats would come directly from
the b. F. Keith vaudeville circuit to
augment the arrav of amateur acts
by local performers.
The Keith circuit team is the we'll
known Lola and DAILY combinatio
which has travelled from coast to
coast with all of the larger clrcuses.
Grace, agility and pep characterizes
the entire act Of this combination.
They introduce unique hand balanc-
ing, remarkable back bending, and
clever somersaults, ending their
double act with a daring barrel
jumping feat. DAILY, singly does a
clever buck dancing number and also
makes an appearance as an honest
to-goOdness clown.
With the many other acts Of ath-
letic nature, exhibition dance num-
bers and the wild animal show and
mcnagerie, the "Y' Dippydrome of
this year promises to be one of the
