ELKS' MINSTREL
SHOW BEST EVER
The capacity audience at the Elks
mlnatrel show l.'int night was kept
busy two hours from utart to finiflh
alternately laughing, applauding1 won
lcrtng and admiring the many acts of
that clever, meritious production, put
on entirely by mem bora of the Atcd
ford lodge of Elks with local Elks
taking all the par in. It was by far

chorus and orchestration.
,No piece of comedy, oven to the
utmost trivial foolishness was over
looked to bring out a henrty laiiKh
from tho audience, and even from the
minstrels themselves. Tho end men,
Larry Mann, Paul McDonald and
Jerry Jerome and Vernon Vawier
had tho audlenco convulsed with
lauehtor with their RnKS, stunts, quips,
sonKH and various antics.
AmonR the blir hits of the show
J was the monologue In hayseed cos
tume and hayseed dialect by timudgc-
I'ot Perry, whose short act aroused
loud merriment. Our steamed con

would probably be more enjoyed if
he had been garbed in greasy auto
mechanic costume, a bunch of car
rots in one hand, and an Knglish
sparrow in the other, and a picture of
Senator Penrose at hia feet.
Other big hits were the dancing of
a little three-year-old fairy girl, ac
companying Herb Alford's vocal solo,
tho very clever sleight of hand act of
Jay Gore, the ballads by William
Vawter and Fletcher Fish. and. but
this is totally unfair. Next thing we
will tie describing tho entire show, and
killing the keen edge of anticipation
and surprise of another capacity nu
dience, which will witness it tonight
Suffice it to say that the above briefly
describes tho Klks' minstrels, and that
this noon there were only less than a
hundred tickets left unsold for to
night's performance.

THE BANE of old age is constipation. The bow
els become weak and unable to perform their
-h-oV: functions without aid. For this purpose only
the mildest and gentlest laxative should be used.
The use of harsh cathartics aggravates the trouble
and makes the constipation worse. Chamberlain's
Tablets are a favorite with people of middle age
and older on account of their gentle action.

Notice to Orchardist-s:
At a recent meeting of fruit grow
ers, the sentiment for supreme ef
forts to make a good orchard clean
up was unanimously endorsed. The
undersigned was petitioned to use
every effort to get all fruit erowers
bUBy Just as soon as possible and a
resolution was passed, requesting a
notice to be printed in the paper.
In pursuance of tills, we wish to
call tho growers' attention to ihe
fact that the blossoming period in
our orchards will be here in abo.it
month or six weekc. It behooves
every ono to put in every possible mo
ment cutting blight In order to pre-
ent a serious recurrence this spring.
It seems needless for us to call your
attention to the vital necessity of im
mediate and determined attention to
this, so the Inspection force expects
your hearty co-operation.
At present. Mr. Elmer Oatman and
Mr. H. T. Pankey aro the Inspectors
and with your aid there is no reason
to anticipate any trouble in having
these two inspectors handle the nltu
ation. However, If the erowers them
selves do not do their part, the in
spection force, no matter how large
or efficient it is, will be unable to
handle it.
Tho county court is giving their
best co-operation, the Inspectors are
now busy, and the county agent and
the commissioner will do all in their
power to aid you. It is now up to
you let's get busy.
