Music, Movie and Speeches Are All Full of jazz, Au dience Wants More if no one else would be able to ap- jpear for the singers were called with his other assistant jumped t" e water roni the boy's mouth, using 'hack again and again, and like nio-!bls arm for a pump handle, every- EVENT IS MUCH LAUDED Appropriate, Patriotic Finale Is Impressive Conclusion to Show All wbo attended the Salem arm ory last night as guests of the Salem Elks' came away with a broader idea of Just what tiie Apierlcan Boy 8cout movement means to young America, and' also what the Elks ' mean when they undertook to be bis brothers to the Hoy Scouts of Salem. Take them all in alii the Elks are "just grown up Boy Scouts themselves and with them behind the Souts suc cess is certain in anything the Scouts undertake. J The program that the EJks gave last night was. a huge success and the armory was filled with people, everyone of which wen$ away singing the praises of those who took part. " The Elks quartet gaVe several se- r lection and for a time it looked as ther's fruit rake, "the more we got. the more we wanted." Bertha Clark, with her whistling solo, made a decided hit. and don't b Mir prised if you find your own or your neighbor's Hoy Scout prac ticing' some of her selections. T.iat Elks band! When it played that Jazz music it looked as if the chairs would be pushed aside and the whole affair turned into a dance. Everybody wanted to hear more of that band- May June and Elks state convention come around quickly r.o Salem will have that pleasure. Mrs. V. Calton Smith's first ren dition was "Four-leaf Clover." a beautiful song by Ella Higginson. j Her second song was "Dear Little Boy of Mine." and Mrs. Smith's handling of it was exceptionally well done, bringing out all the sentiment that wonderfully beautifully song af fords. Mrs. A. A. Schramm was her accompanist. Miss Von Behren gave a reading of Elliott MeBride's humorous classic "Day Says So Anyhow." in which she led a country bumpkin up to the point of popping the question. It pleased the audience very much, es pecially the married folks, who will never forget their own experiences when raying those fateful words. E. Cooke Patton with his mysic arts and sciences had the spirits all out in full force last night. He must use a Ouija board. When he made eggs and coins appear and disappear everyone thought he was just clever, but when one o his assistants drank a glass o water Houdini Patton with one just naturally had to believe. Claud Stevenson took everyone to the Latin quarter where Italian op era was served with variations. The only thing missing was the spagettl and one could rasily imagine that. George Halvorsen gave a Jour minute talk on the Boy Scouts in France, how they did tlieir bit for their country in the world war. Walter A. Icnton gave a talk on the "Hoy Scouts of America." and what th Hoy Scouts of Salem are do ing and what they plan to do. They have a membership of 250 at pres-1 eut. but Mr. Denton says their aim is to have HK0 members uext year at htis time. The presentation of Salem Boy Scouts which followed Mr. Denton's talk showed what the Scouts will do for the American boy. Never was a more manly set of chaps reen than those presented last night, and as they formed rank and reputed their Scout oath a huge American flag was dropped behind them, the lights iurned out and flares lighted behind the flag, mak ing an appropriate finale. The moving picture "Knights of the Square Table" made especially for the Boy Scouts was worth going miles to see. and would have to be seen to be appreciated.- It shows the difference between the boy with .Scout training and one who as Topsy said. "Just Crowed lp."
