ALLIED WELFARE BODY HOLDS MEET One of the funniest stories ever written, if not the funniest of all. is Thsrne Smith s "Night Life of the Gods," in which a young scientist discovers a way of bringing statues to life, and vice 'ersa, making peo ple into statues. The book Is now in Its 12th edition and still going strong. Lowell Sherman, whose genius made him one of Hollywood's top ranking directors, and whose par ticular forte was comedy and satire, was given the directing Job on the picture and told to "turn himself loose." His Instructions to the cast were typically Sherman: -Enter here, and act like hell! ' To those who have read the story, the action of the screen play, which starts today at the Rialto theater. will be a revelation in following the same mad comedy which character ized the bcok. For those who haven't as yet read the novel , t he picttire will prove equally funny, as the grds and goddesses of ancient Greece are brought to life and start on a wild rampage of one night of hi larity along Broadway. ton, Welfare Exchange; Mrs. C.

(Contributed) Fra Diavolo. the principal part In the opera of that name which cornea to the Craterian theater Wednesday evening. May 8th. gives a splendid opportunity to the people of Medford to see a truly great artist In one of his finest portrayals. James Stevens for years has been one of the best known and best liked baritones In American light opera, a reputation won through successful appearance in all of the principal cities of the United States. One of the triumphs of his career came when he was se lected by Reginald de Koven, the composer, to sing the part of Little John In the all star revival of the opera Robin Hood In New York, which was directed by the composer. Many other eastern engagements fol- of the wave when a serious Illness forced his retirement. Coming to Medford to regain bis health, he has remained here and for years has been a leader In musical events throughout southern Oregon. As the reckless, debonair but ruth less bandit whose exploits have ter rorized the countryside and aur rounded his very name with an aura of superstition among the simple na tives, Jim has a part which projects his magnetism and personality across the footlights and which will hold his audience' spellbound from the first curtain until the cllmutlo finale. Fra Diavolo runs the gamut of dra ma, comedy, tense thrills and tragedy In the setting of a glorious musical background. When Medford people see James Stevens In the part they will be watching a characterization lowed and Jim, was riding the crest without a peer anywhere. . Three-bata hits: Bayllss.
