AMERICAN GIRL

With the selection OF all sorts
and conditions Of entertainment a
mere matter OF twisting hard
rubber knob between the thumb
and forefinger - the business OF
giving a definite sense OF
direction for the twist is becoming
more and more complicated. There
is probably nothing on the wave
lengths this evening that will de-
liver more novelty than the enter.
tainment planned by WRNY. New
York, where it is planned to spend
the entire evening without an
nouncers or announcements of any
sort!
Giving publicity to such a state
ment ought to attract many of our
dial twisters-but the WRNY studio
authorities are going step further.
At 10 o'clock, or whereabouts. they
will simply turn on the studio mikes
and proceed to get together the
program for tomorrow-letting this
evenings audience hear how it Is
done.
That will go on for a short period
and then the studio will become the
headquarters Of the Equity Chorus
Girls unit. and the microphone will
proceed to glorify the American girl
with members Of the choruses OF
most of the shows In New York sup
plying the program. Several stars
who BEGAN as chorus girls will help
things along under the leadership
of Leoda Knapp, member Of the
chorus OF THE Girl Friend"

Dixon Thompson. pianist. MISS
Hood came to the mlcrophone 1oE

singer we know. MIR. Thompson

Then came the New Willard Hotel

few Of even the greatest artists
can play them. Hetzel is a pianist
with ideas a Chopin enthusiast
who plays his masters work for
its human values. Two of the
numbers he presented were piano
studies. but the waltz in AMinor'
was a gem of musical romance. no
fraction OF which escaped the agile
mind and responsive fingers of the
performer.
J. f. S. Kinsella, basso, was the
next thrill producer for WRC with
a group of songs that were perfect
~ colored and accompanied by Mrs.
Sue Blandy. Kinsella not only
sings-but makes the idea of the
composer and the authors OF the
words of his ballads live for his
audiences. Erva Giles and the
Royal Salon Orchestra came from
WIZ for the next hour with a
program extracted from two great
musical successes-Victor Herbert S
Naughty Marietta" and the cur
rent success. THE Song Of the
Flame" Then Mrs. Belmont spoke

of the country was far from un-
productive At WEAF the auto
mobile tire manufacturers switched
their advertising concertizing to

What Are You Doing
For Your Puny Child ?
!One boy gained IL pounds in weeks
and is now strong and healthy.

For weak, fkail, under developed
children-and especially those that
have ricketts,, and need a sure builder
that promotes the growth of teeth
and bones, cod liver oil is the one
medicine supreme-nothing helps like
it.
But it is nasty and repulsive and
levil smelling and nearly always up
Isets childrens stomachs-so now up
|to-date chemists advise McCoy's Cod
Liver, Oil Compound Tablets.
Children love them as they do
candy, because they are sugar coated
land easy to take. One boy gained
I11h pounds in seven weeks, and is
now healthy and happy-thousands of
other children have grown strong and
robust.
Sixty tablets for 60 cents at Doug
las Drug Co. and all druggists-but
be sure and ask for McCoy's-the
original and genuine.
Give them to the siclxly, frail child
for 80 days, and if they don't help
wonderfully, your druggist is author
lied to hand you back the money you
paid for them-Advt.

cal committee of lodge No. S6S, Broth
erhood of Railroad Trainmen of
Douglas.
Pray has been a resident of Doug
las for 20 years and was local chair
man of lodge SOS for 10 years and,

ant organization matters, among them
being the question Of merging the
seniority of the former Tucson divis-
ion trainmen of the Southern Pacific
with the men he represented on the
former western division of the El
Paso and Southwestern railroad here.
Pray worked conscientiously and
effectively for the interests of his

ring was composed of S. F. Bryan,
e. 4. Williams, e. A. Scott, j. r.
Webb, w. +. Kelly ana = MI Johll-
son. G. c. Mcbride, manager of the
p D. store here, assisted in the Sc

very large diamond of splendid depth
and color.
Pray said early this morning that
while delighted with the gift, he was
overcome by the generosity of his
friends. He said he would value the
! gift more for it's significance than
for the monetary worth thereof.
