MEPFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEOTORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, MAT 6, 1932. PAGE NINE EARL CARROLL'S AT K. F. MAY 16 Staged In 60 scenes and with a company of a hundred people. In cluding soma of the moat beautiful . girls In the world, the original New York production of "Earl Carroll Vanities" will show Monday night, May 16th. at Poole's Pelican theater In Klamath Falls, one of only five cities to be played on the Pacific coast. During the building of the new Earl Carroll theater the eighth edi-jt-tlon of thia annual revue was pro duced In New York at the New Am sterdam theater, where a successful engagement continued for over seven months last season. This "Vanities" Is a funny, gorge ous and resplendent show with dancing all the way from the most Intricate super buck and wing to ex- qulslte toe dancing and spirited en semble effects In addition to com edy and color. Mr. Carroll planned to offer smart entertainment rather than devote this edition of "Vanities" to big names, and In his two prin cipal comedians he has the material for royal good humor and he makes , excellent use of Herb Williams, whose pathetic and uncertain manner is genuinely funny, and the diminutive Chaz Chase, whose spontaneous clowning Is always superb. The scenic and costume equipment 'Is nearly as big as the previous sev enth edition of "Vanities." "The Moving Curtain of Splendor" and the "Field of Dasles" spectacles use the entire girl ensemble and their collec tive effectiveness Is the result of Mr. Carroll's gift for making the dec- )oratlve most out of staging feminine beauty. "Strange Inhabitants of the Skies" la a modernistic ballet with costumes designed by Herr Boehm of Germany and made by Kauffman Studios in Berlin. The first act finale "Let Freedom Ring." Is staged In 13 scenes with the .entire company, who rap prohibition unmercifully In song, speech and pantomime. The song hits Include the popular 'Goodnight Sweetheart," "Hitting the Bottle" and "One Love." and among , the various ensemble dance numbers the Cuban "La Rumba" is outstanding.

GOOD ROADS CO! COLUMBUS. fihlft t m b Arnold. Ohio State" University ex tension economist, is of the belief good roads are partly responsible for decrease In the number of sheep In Ohio. He explains It thus: Improved transportation facilities encouraged the growing of crops and raising of livestock other than sheep, par ticularly dairy cattle. Fifty years ago, he says, five mil lion sheep were raised on Ohio I farms. The 1680 census shows this number has dwindled to two million. PHOENIX GRANGE DANCE PLANNED FOR SATURDAY PHOENIX, May .

(jT) Prom this little Nebraska town comes a note of cheer In the midst of gloom over mounting taxes. Trenton, let It be known, la slash ing taxes right and left and there's still a surplus In Its treasury. So far this year, Trenton's not quite 000 citizens have made these changes to lighten the tax load: The village tax ha been elimin ated, light, heat and power rates hnve been cut, and village officials have reduced their own salaries and ef fected other economies to hold down expense. Revenue from the municipal light, water and Ice plant Is expected to pay all the lawn's expenses. The plant, valued at more than $150,000, also supplies loe to several nearby towns. In the last few months Trenton has paid $5,000 on Its bonded In debtedness and there's enough sur plus in the treasury to pay all bonds yet due, except refunding bonds. Abolishment of the village tax has been followed by reductions In rents, which has been anything but dis pleasing to renters. In spite of It seconomles, however, Trenton boasts one of the best street lighting systems In any Nebraska town. It has 18 blocks of "white way," and Its streets are kept In tip-1 Ploture frames made to order. T je top condition. Peasloys, opp. Holly theater. Ureatest- Anti-knock9 Dnergy!
