the a nai B nth convention here in
quired of the mm who Mt hesiile
hint. That inquiry givci ait idea of
the quality.
Of cotirte, it' all e.-rct MulT tin
le you're a kuicht of Ak-Sar-Bm
(price JIO and the highest money'k
vorih on earth.) Hut we can fttretcli
cur oath far enough to My that the
play concern the court of King Ar
thur of old and hit round tuhle, with
the Sheik of Arahy, model,
thrown in for good measure and to
11. Ae it interesting .
Rehearsed Thoroughly.
Oscar Lichen, the tireless and won
derful little munical director, had re
hearsed hit actors and actorincft so
thoroughly that there wasn't a single
hitch in the whole three acts, and
Dan , Butter, prompter, just had to
ait there and do nothing. -
The oath of secrecy also doesn't
prevent us from remarking that
I'rank I.atriiser is a handsome and
dashing king; K. H. Strickler, a love
ly Guinevere; Maynard Schwartz, a
Valentinous sheik; Dr. Gladstone
Derby, a knightly Launcclot. The
other principals included George
Long, Marcus Nielsen. C. R. Tyler,
Rollin Thomas, Christian Larseu,
Charles Docherty. Kenneth Reed, A.
I- Frederick. Mickey Gibson, and
they're all fine.
Walter Adams, female imper
sonator, who ha been out of the
show for th.ee years because of an
accident, staged a great comeback,
putting on a dance of subtlest fasci
nation. And the chorus. Oooo. la la! The
Arabiaji "maids" that waltz in with
the sheik are so beautiful that the
crowd just busted in with applause
right in the midst of the chorus as
a sort of tribute to beautiful
i'womanhood."
It'j a knockout, men, on the level.
And if you get a chance to buy a
membership at $10, do it. You can
ee the show 14 times for that and
get all the hot dogs, cheese sand
wiches, buttermilk and coffee you
can eat at each and every perform
ance, about $12 worth of eats for $10.
Dr. Waggener's beloved saxo-
ihc: octet was back on the job and
vas greeted with great applause and
performed with its old-time vim and
rhythm. , '

And when the curtain had fallen
on the beautiful tcetirrv of the third
act and roe asam, behold a Ford
truck droe in upon the ttage. Se4t
id upon it were the rotund and ro
biiMKu form of IZ. Buckingham
and Congressman A. W, Jefferis.
I'.ut heavens! U the chauffeur
mad? Oh, a rah!
The automobile, with it heavy and
important human freight, ban run
right into a stone wall. The stones
have tumbled upon the two passen
gers who, it seems, were cunningly
seated where all the mortar and lime
would fall on their clothe.
Both Escape Injury.
But they are unhurt, though they j
certainly look like a couple o plas
terer. They are introduced then as
the speakers of the evening. "Buck"
told how great Ak-Sar-Ben is and
is going to be.
Big JclT was in an almost continual
white smoke screen as he eulogized
Nebraska and particularly the peo
ple of Omaha and the Second con
gressional district. Sigmuud Living
stone of Bloomington, 111., a B'nai
B'rith delegate also spoke.
Most of the Ak-Sar-Ben governors
witnessed the opening show.
All the music and songs were
broadcast by radio.
Buck Mercantile Company
Again Looted ly Burglarb
Burglars removed a panel front
the rear door of the W. S. Buck Mer
cantile company, 1708 Dodge Etreet,
sometime Saturday or Sunday night,
backed up a wagon to the door and
stole a quantity of rugs, blankets and
the like to an undetermined value, ac
cording to a police report filed this
morning.
Manager S. L. Ilcmstrcet said an
inventory is being taken to deter
mine the extent ol the loot.
A few weeks ago this firm suffered
from a $10,700 fire, and several
months ago. when the company was
located at 2570 Leavenworth street,
it was raided by burglars for several
thousand dollars' worth of loot.
