THE NE WLYWEDS
AND THEIR BABY
Lovey Dovey and Snookums Ir
Town Soon
That delightful 60 people mu
sical play The Newly weds and
Their Baby will be seen here at
the Temple theatre Wednesday
January 3d It is a happy com
binailion of clean cut clever com
edy caethy tuneful music and
novel attractive dancing numbers
The cast tliis season is practically
same as seen in New York and
Chicago during its record break
ing runs numbering such notable
musical comedy favorites as Vir
ginia Braun James E Rosen Led
Hayes D L Don Beatrice Flint
Eulalie Young Ralph Bevan W
A Orlamond Frank Christis anc
John J Dalston The chorus num
bors thirty six shapely girls who
sing dance and wear gorgeous
costumes equally well The New
lyweds and Their Baby has a
clever and consistent plot If the
musical numbers sixteen in all
were eliminated and it was play
ed as a straight comedy it would
still make an acceptable happy
theatrical offering The musical
and dancing numbers constitute
however its chief charms
The seat sale for the splendid
attraction opens Saturday De

Increased 537 Per Cent
Some attention has been drawn

ing population of Nebraska cit
ies and towns over its agricultur
al community increase over 43
per cent of Nebraskans now re
side in cities and towns altho
this is distinetivley agricultural
si ale Other Nebraska cities and
towns have been mentioned but
the writers have so far over
looked McCook as an example of
city growth And this opens tlie
way for us to modestly mention
the fact that in past ten years
McCook s population has increas
ed 037 per cent an accomplish
ment not equalled by any other
Nebraska town or city of its
class
