ROTARIANS TO ROTATE
IN VAUDEVILLE TURNS
Tonight While the Sheriff is Out
of Town the Club Will
Commit Comedy.
Oi Yoi! Oi Yoi! The Rotary Club is
going to commit vaudeville while the sher-
iff i.-; out of town.
Eight natty numbers—some notty some
nutty—all new. Black face white face
bare face ami bare-kneed singers dancers
and shimmy .shakers- The Royal Yakahula-
biki Troupe of Howling Hula Hawaiians
from the island of Shredded Wheat. Ro-
tarians in a blithering burlesque entitled
“The Shrimp Cocktail.” Admission on**
wheel; infants in arms if properly provided
with a muzzle one Liberty Bond.
At half past eight Georgie Evans the
Marine Honey Boy will take the Dittmann
1'heatre stage to t**ll you how the marines
w n the war. Georgie has had five years
of experience in making a noise and he
gets'better every year.
The Four Smiling Smokes cullud gen-
tlemen in songs and {tatter take the stage
away from Georgie. They answer to roll-
call .it Fort Brown as Burger Hunt Gallo-
way and Neville. •
J. L. Garda the man with a talking vio-
lin. and Ali*s. F. R. Cochyan who caresses
the ivories follow in music real and imi-
tation.
Next the Royal Vakahulahiki Troupe of
Hawaiian waiters*Ukelele flailers and wick-
e 1 shakers of the shredded wheat shimmy.
The leading lady lost her costume and is
trying to borrow one. But she will posi-
tively appear whether—yes she will pos-
itively appear.
Little old Jimmy Henderson the sole
survivor of Private Henderson of the La-
d s front Hell will be heard in Scotch
wails and moans.
The sixth and headline number will show
you the secrets of the lodge. Rotarians
will gather at the luncheon table and show
how a Rotary luncheon rotates. Come and
hear the scandal they will t'-ll on eaMi oth-
tr; it will help you to understand many
things that are puzzling Brownsville.
Jim Allis of the Manhattan Gafe will
pass the shrimp with his own fair hands.
The seventh number. Dances of the Na-
tions replaces William S- W**st who was
to have spake but left town for Galves-
t< n cn alleged business. If you would
rather hear Bill West rave than see three
bewitching dancers bewitch you can get
up quietly and leave at this point. But if
you do you will miss Glendale Clements in
hi r Irish clog Senorita Marguerita Oeste-
the Maid from Madrid and whisper it—
Berenice (pronounced Hare-knees) Ridley
in a Scotch highball.
Number eight will be three stars of the
s caking stage in a heart throb drama
“Pat and the Genii.” Bring your handker-
chief. Better bring two handkerchiefs. It
is to be hoped that you will not need your
smelling salts; but better he safe than sor-
ry—bring them too.
