. ; 'Th second radio comedy drama
(Written by Mitm Mtiry tireiner. a
t reporter on UiIh palter, will he
; presented over KM ED, the Mail
Tribune Virgin rndio station, next
Tuesday evening, from 9 to JO,
by the Copco company.
-The firHt drama pleased th
rudlo audience and they will watch
for the sequel next Tuesday. We
glvo a Bynopain of both herewith:
"Madame- Q," tho first radio
comedy, concerned Jack Merry
Weather, a smart cracking, hIiiiik
slinging, happy go lucky college
graduate, whone sole poscnalon
W&a a hundred acre tract of land
. i next to a cemetery in Rogue River
, valley. Being a hopcletts buHlness
, manager, he resorted to only freak
' ,'nutlons to get rid of his property.
He. opened a real estate office,
If' hired a stenographer, nnd wrote
to his furmer college chum, Harry
- ' Manning, who held the enviable
position of secretary to a weulthy
widow, with a flare for investing
in "Impossible" real estate.
'- They arrived, and after Jack had
boen carefully coached In the use
' of manneru and perfect Knglish
' (because, according to i I airy, if
; there was anything Mrs. Quuuken
, bush, the widow hated, It was
; sloppy English), the widow sud
denly appeared on the scene and
Jack was left to his wits to nego
: tlato the deal as best he might,
u Much to the despair of Harry
; nhd the little stenographer, Dixie,
who had ambitions of getting to
1 New "York, herself, Jack threw dis
cretion to the. winds and "acted
natural.' Tho widow didn't buy
the propertyd but. Instead, hire
Jack for her secretary, and drop
pod Harry here, because, ns she
said, "Jack was so amusing. ' Jack,
In a spirit of parting magnanimity
donated J lurry and tho stenogra-
; pher his hundred aero tract of
. land.
The Sequel
The second piny Is a sequel to
' tho first, nnd Is just another In
stallment of Madanio Q and Jack.
- Tho first scene opens on the train,
taking tho widow and her secre-
tary -to Monto Carlo. Jack is still
' getting by with tho widow, itltho
'4tihe admits he is "not murh of a
secretnry." Every place they go
. they hear something about Rogue
River valley, much to tho annoy-
nnee of Jack and tho amusement
i of Mrs. QuackenbuHh, or "Madame
Q" as Jack has dubbed her.
; As they leave Nice, they are met
; hi tho border of tho principality
, ' of Monaco, In which Monto Carlo
fiJ is situated, by the prince, who is
t. an old friend and admirer of
, S Madame Q. Again, Jack almost
f', "queers the deal" with his smart
( cracking. Hut as tho prince itnd
Madam Q go Into the prince's
private air. It develops that Jack
$1 has been doing a little flirting on
the side, too, and a little French
-A girl shows up, and It develops that
J he Is on her way to Monte Carlo
. to ho near "Monsieur Jack." With
li k tho ol,r lnem at Conto Carlo,
things happen, nnd tho second act
Li concerned with "a way out."
The members of tho cast will be

The new $3,000,000 car assembly
plant for the Oakland AU-Amer-
j lean Kix started production on
April 2, says A. It. Ulancey, presi
dent and general manager of the
Oakland Motor Car company.
The old assembly building was '
closed a few days to permit the j
I transfer of a portion of the mu
Ichlneiy to the new structure. A
I large proportion of the new plant
equipment, however, is entirely
I new. Elect rically driven machine
units with Individual control are
used thruout. The old building
will be used for inaterinl storugo.
With tho completion of tho new
assembly building for the Oakland
A II-American Mix, tho company
now has one of the most modern
automobile, factories In tho world.
Two model assembly plants, one
devoted exclusively to Oakland Six
production and the other to 1'on
tiac Mix production, now lie paral
lel to each other. They are served
by an "indoor railroad yard," nine
of the ten tracks being under roof.
Construction thruout both plants
Is of brick, steel ami concrete and
the monitor type roofs admit a
maximum of daylight. A huge ad
dition to the . Oakland-l'ontlac
shipping building was erected at
the same time tho new assembly
plant was being constructed.

that delighted four continents
during its world-wide tour, the
