traction Is one of the best of the sea
son.
For the coming week the manage
ment has selected the musical comedy
A Warm Match," In which the clever
vaudeville team, Crlmmlns A Gore,
will be the principal fun-makers, as
sisted by a number of artists and a
chorus culled from the musical shows

of plot, but the Idea of a summer
amusement Is something light and ef
fervescent with plenty of music and
pretty girls.

I hare never In my life annght to evade

any further that

unare which was created st ths time the
Vrnahle law was alterative here. At that
time, Insurance brokers wers placing bind

nd they wers not paying any licenses or
