A special election return show

tion will be “Fools for Luck” with
Chester Conklin and W. C. Fields,
and “The Clown,” with Johnny
Walker and Dorothy Revier; also a
News' Reel and a good Comedy.
Anyone interested in the election
should arrange to be on hand to
hear the returns and to be enter-
tained at the same time by a good
