The carnival company comes highly

highly recommended . after having
made the hit of the season. The at

An Exceptionally Strong Program is
Now on.
The present program at the Sher
wood Electric theater la one which
has a pleasing feature tor each ' and
every member of the family. There
is a number for those who delight In
comedy, pathos for the seriously Id
dined, and drama for those who ap
preciate the efforts of the successful
playwright. The number dealing with
the submarine depicts the workings
of the terror of the deep, and finally
shows what awful suffering an acci
dent brings about to tho men who
operate the . boat. Those who wish
amusement of the sort which makes
It necessary to hold one's sides, will
find "Poetry and Music" will glvp
them plenty to do. Another number
which Is sure to bring forth laughter
as well as wonder Is the V'Mlsadvcn
tures of a Sheriff." The sheriff, af
ter .undergoing all sorts of trials,
troubles and tribulations, is finally so
doubled up that a span of horses is
required to straighten him out An
other good number, is the man "Tor
mented by his Mother-ln-Law." Trou
bled sons-in-law should make an es
pecial effort to see this number.
The lllustrated'songs are good, and
Mr. Ferrin does them proper justice.
Come early and avoid the rush.
