lighting and scenic effects are excel- i
j lent., The girl and her aeroplane fly

voice and her act made a hit last
night. The Aeroplane Girl la a de
cidedly' original act for Topekans. I
The Waynes put on a novelty sing
ing and dancinj act which is good.
This number Is above the average and
the voices of the couple are pleasing.
- James and Prior put. on a specialty
act entitled "At the Depot." The act
is snappy and has several catchy
songs. j
Kramer's dogs, the last number,
have an act that appeals especially to
children. It is divided in two parts.
The dogs are intelligent, but portions
of their act are. tiring.. and. rather too
long. The first part shows the dogs in
acrobatic stunts and in the second
they have a comedy. The first, part
is better than the last. -
Four -reels of good pictures finish,
the program. Music furnished - by
