in vaudeville, after a number of. years
. absence from the stage, the facial re-
. sembjlanee was considered so- striking
that In i nearly every city the act has

This liberality extended to the chil

river, city and valley scenery compris
ing over 8000 square miles will be a
wonder and will prove a great educa

should set apart every Thursday during
the holidays, and spend the day with
the little ones at Council Crest where
there are fine picnic grounds. With
ample ' shade In the r day , and -electric
light at night, . all can enjoy a better
outing than could be obtained at the
