' The play was one of tender sympa thies, of n biy's love for n girl, of .in old toymaker. who, no matter what haiiprns, s.iyi, "we'd better smile." The girl, the mayor's daughter, was charmingly played by Opal Hobert on, who at nil times was sincere and winning.

"Arkansas Joe" is Interesting act On Carnival lot Many quaint and curious cbaracyrs about at the Snapp Itrothers Carni val show, but one of the most inter esting is "Arkansas Joe." This old fellow, who looks to b? about 70, and really is, brings forth strange melo dies on a "fiddle" of his own making. "Joe" invented Ihe instrument him self, he says, and many of his mehv dies were inspired by the night winds whistl ng around his lonely cabin in the hills of Arkansas. The odd musi cian has long gray whiskers and hair, which he admits he takes off on hot . nights. He ia a genuine Arkansas cracker, however. ! Other oddities in the tent with Joe are the man who sticks hatpins through Mb cheeks and arms, a corps o dancing girls and a genuine fire- eater. j The circus, which has as ft feature ; a seven-year-old boy acrobat, at- ( traded crowds last night. The boy , is aptly called "The Human Dynamo" j for be can do a variety of acrobatic j and tumbling feats. Wild animals and several riding nets are also Included.
