This mammoth production will be
at the Steward, appearing at this pop
ular playhouse on January 1. '
This mere announcement cannot
carry with It the full strength of tht
event. There was a time when such
attractions as "Rubes In Toyland"
J were denied local theatergoers because
of fear of manugvr that there would
be speculation on the merit of a New
York success en-tour, but lately It has
been demonstrated that the biggest of
ferings can be brought to the doors l
the people, and hence the -wedding oJ
a great many ordinary bookings am'
the advent of shows that are worth
of price and patronage. t
"Babes In Toyland" comes with
practically a special train, tor two
modern coaches are required to han
dle the company, and two of tho larg
est baggage cars used to tranHfei the
great quantity of Scenery and effects
used In this wonderful success. So
cleverly conceived by Glen Mas Don
ough and, Victor Herbert.
The company Is complete and the
chorus is one of the most rtrractlve on
the road. The mu. it o: Ihe sort thst
lingers and there is a vein of comedy
that blends excellently with the spec
tator. There are so many songs In
"Babes In Toyland" th.tt every taste U
gratified among the ' many brilliant
musical numbers which Victor Herbert
wrote for his most pretentious work
may be mentioned, Floretta, Barney
O'Flynn, Castle in Spain, Beatrice
Bart-facts, I Can't Do That Bum, Jane:
Slumber Deep, Before and After, Hv
Won't Be Happy Till He Gets It. Tht
Moon Will Help You Out, Bo-Poep:
and the Song of Toyland.
"Great Dlvldo" Plcasen.
Coming as it did on the heels of sev
eral comic operas, "The Great Divide"
tvas a sharp contrast to the usual run
of theatrical attractions, but thost
who had been fortunate enough to at
tend the production at the Stev.nr:"
Saturday night, were well repaid.
VThe Great Divide" as a story, Is at
fault to many minds and critics, bu'
there wa3 nothing at fault with tlx
people who played. The, ctinny I
-.veil balanced, in fact, ha unty a few
actors, but the rfmnrKuble part o
-h" tho presence of two unusu-
Uv .irons roles. The leading lady and
'.lift prominent male part are both
typical of the times the Story depicts.

DENTIST
FOUR Teeth are vitally important to
you. Are you neglecting them? If
it lias been a matter of cost which has
caused you to put off visiting the
Dentist, that excuse no longer exists.
Bridge work requires skill and
udgement, but fee cost should not be
prohibitive. Call at my office and
have your teeth examined and recieve
an estimate. It may be that timely at
tention may save you many dollars.
The La Grande Dental Parhrs
are not in any combination to control
prices. All work has my personal
guarantee and 16 years practical ex
perience is at your disposal.
