Boy Singer and
Dancer Clicks
AT Minnesota
Youth Attributes Success To In
terest of Ted Lewis
By DE VELMA STRONG

Paul White, ID year old stage
performer, who appeared this past
week at the Minnesota Theatre, on
the bill with John Boles, movie
actor, undoubtedly has earned his
reputation of q highly rated singer
and dancer.
For the past seven years Paul
has left a trail of successful en-
gagements behind, and anticipates
many more. Included in his for
mer engagements are such famous
places as Comics Inn and La
fayette Theatre, New York; Dells
Club and Morrison Hotel, Chicago;
the entire 1884 session at the Cen
fury of Progress, where he ap-
peared with Ted Lewis and his
orchestra; and nightly radio ap-
pearances which lasted several
weeks, over station WABC, on
Eleanor Powells' (the famous tap
dancer) program.
During an interview at the the
atre of little Paul and his mother,
Mrs. Mabel Howard, who is his
chaperon on this tour, Mrs. Howard
stated that they attribute his real
success to the interest shown by
Ted Lewis, world famed orchestra
leader who has helped so many
talented Negroes reach theatrical
stardom.
Mr.. Lewis found Paul three
years ago, playing at the Lafayette
Theatre, famous Harlem landmark,
and has kept him under his wing
ever since. Two years ago Mr..
Lewis paid $500 out of his pocket
for an operation on PauPs nose and
throat and has done many other
things toward helping with his
career.
Besides appearing in seven
Warner Bros. shorts, Paul played
in Moonlight and Pretzels," a Uni
versal production of three years
ago, with Mary Brian and Roger
Pryor. Mrs. Howard appeared in
an Educational" short recently as
the mother to the "Cabin Kids"
youthful singing stars.
Paul win continue his tour until
December, when he will again join
the Ted Lewis company.
Paul White, who has just fin
ished an engagement at the Mime
sofa Theatre, and his mother, Mrs.
Mabel Howard, have been the house
guests for the past week of Mr.. and
Mrs. Roy l. Jackson, 568 Seventh
Ave. No.
Paul and Mrs. Howard will re-
main with the Jacksons another
week.

HELENA-BUTTE FORTY !
MINUTES IN THE AIR

Major A. D. Smith, in charge Of the
flying division of the United States
forestry service for northern CalifOr-
mia and Oregon, made flight from
Helena to Butte in 40 minutes one day
last week. This is record time for the
flight and the second flight ever made
between the two cities. Major Smith
was accompanied by Sergeant r. b.
Blant, mechanic.
Major Smiths trip to Butte was
made in a DeHaviland Four plane for
the purpose Of finding suitable land
ing fields for the forest service, which
plans to extend its flying service to
Washington, Idaho, Montana and Wy
oming next year.
Major Smith left Eugene, Ore, and
flew to Butte in 9 hours and As min
utes flying time. Stops we're made at
Portland, Camp Lewis, Wenatchee,
Helena. From Butte the big forestry
plane left for Cody, Wyo.
In the flight from Helena to Butte,
Major Smiths plane reached an alti-
tude of 5000 feet. 1t did not encounter
any strong winds or other difficulties,
although a stiff breeze was blowing
from the north on the surface Of the
ground.
The scenery is magnificent between
jor's comments when he landed. 1--WE
had a splendid trip, and was sur
prised to find so good landing field. ,"
The plane was sighted from the
landing field at 1851 p. M, SO minutes
after it left Helena and in five minutes
1t had landed. 1t was sighted first over
Meaderville and was driven west over
Butte, turning south over Big butte
and heading straight for the landing
field, the same used by the flying cir
Gus on April 81.
The landing spot had been marked
with a large canvas T, which Major
Smith said later was visible almost
as soon as he came in sight Of the
city. The landing was effected without
miShap.
Sheriff ORourke offered to have Off
GERS guard the plane during the night
and his offer was accepted by Major
Smith Chief Murphy also offered any
assistance he could give.
IT was told by members OF the fly
ing circus that visited here last spring
that they received the best treatment
of their tour from Butte people and

was well founded" he said. 81 have al

fit of the many sufferers from the eff
fects of the cyclone in Sank Rapids
and St. Cloud. Information was dis
patched to Governor Hubbard OF Min
nesota that this sum Of money had
been raised Although undoubtedly for
very worthy enterprise, still the
amount raised speaks volumes in favor
of the generosity of Montana cowmen,
who have amply demonstrated both
their ability and willingness to give"
This fact was further illustrated by
the action taken during the first day
Of the convention. April 1921, when
John Clay Jr., treasurer OF the Ma
tional Cattle Growers association, spoke
Of the work done by the delegation to
Washington, and the expenses incur
red by them. Previously, MIR. Stuart ex-
planned to the convention that at a
meeting held at Chicago 1t had been
deemed advisable to send delegation
to the national capital to advocate leg
islation sadly needed by the stock
raisers of the country. The delegation
had been appointed and labored faith
fully to accomplish the ends 1t was Gre
ated for, with some degree Of success
and considerable personal expense, Mr.
Stuart continued.
cit was no more than justice that
the expenses Of the gentlemen compos-
ing the delegation should be paid by
those in whose interest they had Ia
bored" said Mr.. Stuart.
The amount deemed necessary to-
meet these expenses was $1,000, and 1t
was considered Just for Montana to
pay 81 900 Of it. Mr.. Stuart argued that
the Montana stoclmen were in honor
bound to raise that sum. He said that
members were present who would elH
plain what had been accomplished in
Washington and the east.
Mai. W. A. Towers, one of the menu
bers of the delegation, stated consid-
cradle progress had been made in SEE
curing legislation so much needed. The
delegation had hoped, he said, to have
had the bill reported from the commit
tee having it in charge, as the commit
tee had passed upon it favorably by
a unanimous vote. He found a de-
cidedly different feeling toward the
measure among congressman and peo-

Major Smith is Justly proud Of the

1t has q 40-foot wing spread and is
fitted with the Liberty motor of IL
cylinders and AS horsepower 1t Is
necessary, Major Smith explained, to
have the most dependable machine
possible in the forestry service, because
flights are often made for hundreds Of
miles over mountainous country COW
cred with timber which renders 1t inn
possible to make a landing.
The DeHaviland plane is a British
machine, which adopted the Liberty
motor and the combination Is declared
to have proved wonderfully efficient
and to be peculiarly fitted for the work
of the government forestry service.
For the want Of a hangar the big
plane was hitched to fence and
weighted down with sacks of dirt for
the stay Of the ayiators in Butte.
On the day following his Helena
Butte trip Major Smith left for Cody,
Wyo.
The landing of Major Smith in Butte
marked his second wedding anniversary
to a former Butte young woman, Miss
Catherine McRae, the daughter OF Mr.
and Mrs. K. j. McE2ae, at that time liv-
ing in Butte, but now in southern CAL
ifornia. Other relatives of Mrs. Smith
are living in Butte.

Smith was one from San Diego, Calf,
to the east about two years ago. Major
Smith was driving one Of five planes
in the flight.
