4 GREAT OLD MAN
". @. COSTELLO,
Manager

This may be considered high treason
by some, but we will not feel disappoint-
ed in the least of that gallant old salt,
Sir Thomas Upton, succeeds in lifting
the Americas cup when his Shamrock
races the Enterprise.
This feeling is shared by thousands of
Americans, who admire the splendid
craftsmanship of Sir Thomas and his un-
failing good nature in the face of many
defeats
1t is asserted that Sir Thomas has
spent millions in his various attempts to
bring back to England the cup which
America won from the English over 70
years ago. Since that incident some IA
attempts have been made by English
yachtsmen to recover the cup. Sir
Thomas alone has made II of these at
tempts only to meet defeat each time.
After each race he has heartily con-
graduated the winner, offered no alibis
for his defeat and has>returned to Eng
land to plan for another try.
Sir Thomas is approaching the age
that indicates there are not many more
years left for him. If he fails to lift the
cup this time, it is doubtful if he will be
able to make another try.
The cup itself is worth less than S125.
1t is what it represents that counts and
it represents the greatest prize in the
world to Sir Thomas.
We wish him luck and if the Shamrock
sails in first, the entire country will be
ready to share the JOY that it will bring
to him.

Marx Brothers
Repeat Success

Repeating the success which they
achieved in " ! he Cocoanuts,' their
first talking film, the four Marx
brothers score again in "Animal
Crackers which wip be shown
again tonight at Fox Imperial Air
dome.
"Animal Crackers" is merely a
conglomeratioa of nonsense, with
the brothers doing their usual line
of comedy. Groucho talks as fast
and as nonsensically as ever. Con
trasting with him is Harpo, who
never says a word. steals everything
in sight and has a mania for thas-
ing girls. Chico still remains an
Italian, and the things he does to
a piano are enough TO convulse d
wooden Indian. Unfortunately
Chico does not play long enough.
Zeppo, the fourth member Of the
family, plays a straight part as
Groucho 5 secretary.
The brothers believe in rough
house stuff and get away with mur-
der.
animal Crackers is good hot
weather diversion and there are
enough laughs in it to satisfy any

HEALTH PROBLEM IS
SOLVED FOR MANY
They Eat Kellogg's ALL
BRAN Daily

Constipation is the most common
menace to health today. 1t Is ex-
tremely dangerous in itself and ls
the source of many other complicat-
ing ailments. There is no permanent
relief in pills and drugs. Many OF
them are dangerous.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is posi-
lively guaranteed to relieve and to
prevent both temporary and recur-
ring constipation. If it does not
money will be refunded.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN IS rough
age. And roughage in food helps
eliminate the possibility of consti-
patton. Most modern foods do not
contain roughage. Two tablespoon
fuls of Kellogg's ALL-BRAN daily
is the proper amount. In recurring
cases, ALL-BRAN should be eaten
with each meal. 1t is an essential
in any reducing diet. In addition,
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN contains iron,
the blood builder. 1t is the original
ALL-BRAN, proved effective by
millions.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN has an ap-
petizing flavor. Eat it with milk or
cream, in cereals and fruit juices,
in soups and in cooked foods. Your
grocer has ALL-BRAN in the red
and-green package. Made by Kellogg
in Battle Creek.
