(From The Bulldog) “One of the Family,” the senior class play, is to be presented Febru ary 2, at the Oasis theatre, under the direction of Miss M. Elliott. The play, a comedy in three acts, has the following plot: Henry Adams begins his career as a rather timid young husband who has incurred the disfavor of his family by marry ing a girl who is not "one of them." The play romps through three acts of exceedingly clever and rollicking fun until the hero's wife gives him the understanding that she will not put up with the interference of his family. Quite smashingly, Henry’s awakening comes the very evening he has invited his new boss to his own home for dinner. Uninvited, the family swoops down and assumes command, with dreadful results. UNION PACIFIC ISSUES ALUMI- NUM ALLOY LUCKY PIECES. To commemorate the completion ot the new high-speed, light-weight, streamlined Union Pacific passenger train, the Union Pacific "lucky piece” has been designed. The first of these to be made are being sent to our American editors. These lucky pieces are made of aluminum alloy, the same material of which the new Union Pacific train is built —as strong as steel of the same di mensions but of only one-third the weight. The total of 1,000,000 of these lucky pieces have been made. These will be given to school children and to visitors to the train on its exhl- bition tour. It took flve tons— 10,000 pounds—of aluminum alloy to make the million lucky pieces. Warrant Call.

ENERGETIC BOYS PRESENT AMATEUR CIRCUS PERFORMANCE BIG CIRCUS-TOP ARRANGED IN CITY MAYOR’S BASEMENT, Proper Atmosphere Created by Aid of False Faces; Side Show Added Attraction. La-Dee-e-s and gen-tle-men, the big one-ring, double featured circus is now in progress! Right thia way for the big perfermance starting im- mediately. Buch announcements could be heard last Saturday near the F. C. McKenzie home as the biggest ama teur performance ever put over In our fair city opened under the di- rection of an energetic group of lo- cal boys. The big-top circus ring was ranged In the basement of the May or's home. Wild animals could be heard as they snarled, growled, and snapped at passers-by. As the patrons moved down the stairs to the ring they were pre pared for the atmosphere by the many colorful illustrations of wild animals that adorned the wall. At the extreme entrance a huge sign warned "Do Not Feed the Animals.” After the spectators were seated in the reserved seat section, popcorn and pink lemonade wore passed just before the ring master and animal trainer opened the big act In the ring. But treats were not free. Oh my, no. Then just as the pistol cracked the cages were openpd and the tig- era and lions emerged, some cau- tiously, some swiftly, into the ring to perform after more or less prob ing from the trainer.

During this performance the wild man became restless and was quieted by a sharp word from the ring master who cracked his whip incessantly. The side show was the next at- traction following the first ring per- formante and there "Tiny Tim” strutted his stuff, the enormous boa constrictor colled in Its cage, the fat man continuously handed out wise cracks and the spectators en- joyed the many other attractions too numerous to mention.
