a single black -soldier -on German ter

MR. SHUFORD IMPROVES
Rotary's second minstrel show,
played beftire a 1 packed house last
night, again was such a success as
to make those having parts in it feel
justified for the many nights of pains
taking effort before- the rise of the
curtain on the big night. Oscar Sim
mons, who supervised . the first per
foi mance, assumed again the direc
tion of the second and his work as
interlocutor was prononced. The music
was furnished, by Rob Roy Peery's
orchestra-and a new song composed
by Mr. Peery, "Sweet Dreams," was
sung for the first time by . Mrs. J.
H. Shuford. The orchestra music was
a delight.
The curtain rose with the comnanv
standing for the opening chorus" anil
from that minute until the finale the
audience was eiven a treat nf nr.t
and jest and comedy -skits, that kep
it bubbling with enthusiasm n 0m
times. The men werp hlnir fa 0a

. inc specialties took place while the
company was changing for the thrro
part, and the customary long wait
was avoided. The specialties them
selves were worth the nrice of ad
mission and Ab Lutz said this after
noon at 3:29 the minute before the
Record went to press that he had
not paid out a sir"-'-, Cent of his
wager.
Features of the first part included"
solos and chorus by Hugh D'Anna,

Dreams;" Mrs. Geo. Lyerly. "Ceave
Me Avith a Smile;" Earl Mulie..,
an Italian composition with a scream
to it; Jake Shuford, "Dapper Dan-"
and Hugh Williams, "Angel Child'."

the audience with "mirth and melody,"
and was followed bv O. Joe Howara
with some dentist, stuff. Mr. Howard
played the role of Dr. Pullom. to
perfection. Henrv Hoibrook as I.-M.
Sore,Oma Hester aslOinSfy Tooth -ache
and. Aldis Henderson .as Mif; "
Malviny Nerve were equally fine in
their parts. Dr. Pullem used a big
flashlight- to examine cavities in his
patients', teeth. His last patient, after
seeing what had happened to the
others, der ided to take the" gas and
tht doc. literally blew , him up. Be
coming frightened, the dentist called
for a doctor and Dr. Charles Menzies
went to his rescue. The physieia
nerely punctured the 1 patient's
stomach to j-elieve him.
Other Features
Following this came Mr., and Mrs.
Earl Mullen in their "famous Par
