time of his many stage appearances.
Nicely and obligingly, he got himself
into one jam after another and push
ed things along to a fitting and
laughable climax.
TO DR.. u. W. Adamson as an af-
fable officer and to H. A. Wimberley
as hardened yegg, must go most
honorable mention. These two were
fine in their character roles and gave
true and appealing atmosphere.
DR.. Adamson especially took his part
most intelligently and won his audi
ence completely.
SO to the entire cast goes the
heartiest congratulations for a happy
and pleasant evening with much
wholesome fun and real amusement
and for interpreting a good play in
q truly finished manner
The Elks orchestra lent its talent
to the program with effectiveness
while the p Z. p. girls, who gave
the song and dance number, SLEEPY
Time GAL" were admirable and per-
haps more appealing than when they
appeared at the Episcopal Parish
house recently.
Miss Dolphene Larson, who is listed
as from Miami, danced with excep
tional grace and ability. proving that
for her there lies a bright future
behind the footlights if she but de-
sires it.

STEP HUSBAND
STEPS TO FAME
AT THE GRAND

Her Step Husband" stepped into
the Grand theatre Friday night un-
der the auspices Of the Douglas XII
wants club and proved to be one Of
the most highly entertaining and
most smoothly presented comedy
seen here in some time.
Those who made up the responsive
audience seemed to have splendid
time, laughing with ease, applauding
generously and chuckling constantly.
Certainly everyone was pleasantly
surprised for "Her step Husband :
boasts of % plot which is most in
generous with varying jams and sub
plots that keep the spectator on edge
from beginning to end. And, added
to the clever play, was some mighty
realistic and clever acting so that,
all in all, a theatrical feast of no
mean proportions, was served with
due pomp and professional skin.
The Kiwanians did themselves proud
by choosing good play and then
did better by selecting a good cast
to present it. The cast was above
par throughout, with many high spots
sticking above the generally good
depictions.
Stars there We're in the cast and
several of them. Turning to the
ladies first, as they again proved last
night that in the field of dramatics
they deserve to be first-the highest
praise must be accorded Ruth Mel
scher who took the difficult and
amusing part of the imaginative
Mary Marshall with astounding ease
and poise. She was fine from start
to finish and her clear voice and
clearer enunciation aided her to make
a decided and well-earned hit. To
should go no end of compliments for
her amusing and accurate presenta-
tion of "Stella"-a maid in a class
by herself, The pep and fun of the
play centered about Miss Lange who
added to laurels already won here on
Glee Jenkins made an admirable
friend and pretty one, too, while
Margaret Sparr put over the tedious
and rather exacting role of Aunt
Emily in fine fashion. Completing
the female roles was Emma Lou
Meischer, who added her attractive
ness to the part of Mary's cousin.
Joseph Fairbanks as the rather
abused yet adapting husband, car.
ried himself with ease and a profess
sional air which gave the audience
confidence in him from the start
while A. A. Sperry appeared to better
advantage last night than at any

FISH FOUND.
CoWfish Having Hands Washed
Up at Wildwood.

Cowfish Having Hands Washed
Up at Wildwood.
A dead cowfish weighing sixty.
one pounds and with two well-de-
veloped hands" instead of fins on
its lower side was washed up on
the beach at North Wildwood, Fri.
day.
The hands" on the underside
of the animal each was equipped
with five distinct fingers" each
about two and a half inches long.
The cowfish had most of the fish
ermen puzzled, but Captain James
Hickman finally identified it.
Captain Hickman said the cow
fish frequently is called an all
mouth, because of the big mouth
1t has, and is rarely seen in these
waters. He never saw one with
the pronounced Handicapped fins
like this one.
The fish was three and a half
feet long, shaped somewhat like a
stingeree. It's mouth was four
teen inches across and fitted with
a sharp set of teeth. Captain
Hickman said a cowfish that size
was capable of swallowing anoth-
err fish weighing fifteen pounds.
Another pronounced popularity of
the special is that the stomach OF
the fish is on top of it's body di-
rectly behind the mouth.
