SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1925 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON AT "They aay people get pearls out of oysters. Well, some girls get dlnmondH out of nuts." The third weekly Association vaudeville to be presented at the .new Hcllig theater In Salem wrta mnrked by the same wit and or iginality that marked the other two, and played to a packed house the third successive one thai has greeted tho circuit. Tho joke about pearls and di, mondM, oysters and nuts, was one Of many put across by Charley Cal vert, "JazxologiKt," with a comi cal sidesplitting, ludicrous delivery that kept his audience, which ex tended back to the farthest corner of "nlRger heaven," In a constant uproar. The few comparatively weak places In the program, as an occa elonal stale joke and a stale bit of rlmo in Belle and Darling's act were accepted by the crowd alone: with the rest of the vaudeville, the manner in which the presentation was made making them seem new acraln, and a large proportion of the crowd never having heard many of them before anyway. The vaudeville started with Iyle and lima Conner In the number "On tho Wlre."Both actors, tight wlro performers, were good, the audience seeming to appreciate the work of Irnia Conner if any thing a little better than Lyle. Tho Bernice Bfin and Co., in Its Peter Pan revue, staged something out of tho ordinary In vaudeville production. The voices of the girls wore not of the common vaudeville type, and the entire number ap preciated more in some parts than in others, but all appreciated was lifted distinctly out of the com monplnce. Hart, Roberts and O'Neill, "Roy al Kntertniners," completed the bill with a clever impersonation of two Englishmen and a tall undescrlb able actor who, most of the aud ience decided, was as graceful as he seemed at first to be awkward. Tho special Ilollig .concert or chestra played accompaniment. Another excellent bill is schedul ' ed for the Heltig patrons next Frl-i day night. The bill Includes xylo phonlsts, comedy dialogue, "Dance Al-a-Uraphono!a" and a comedy quartet, which Is declared to be the befit evening's entertainment yet: furnished here.

Records show that 72 of these sales were made to those who had owned other makes of cars. Thousands of cars, representing 41 different makes, were traded in cars far above and below the Packard Six in price. Sixty per cent of the new owners came to Packard because of the recommendations of those who owned Packard cars. Considering this record, the lowered prices, and the improvements now offered is there any reason why you, too, should not have a Packard Six?
