“ONE OF THE FAMILY"
TO
BE
STAGED FEBRUARY 2.
(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.

La-Dee-e-s and gen-tle-men, the

Buch announcements could be
heard last Saturday near the F. C.

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-

During this performance the wild

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

fat man continuously handed out
wise cracks and the spectators en-
