knew everything. Bobby put all his
affairs in Clarence's hands, "Salt
Lake City" misfortunes and all. Oh
Clarence was unsurpassable. Wasn't
he in "Who's Who" as a great col-
eoptertat? Yes indeed, but he
proved to knowl nearly as much
about women as about Iris beloved
coleoptera. The play "Clarence'
will be given by the high school,
Wednesday, February 20.
