Depths of tragedy are sounded by Al|
Jolson in “The Singing Fool,” the spe- |
cial production in which he is present-'
ed by Warner Bros. next Sunday even-;
ing at midnight, at a matinee on Mon-
day afternoon at four o'clock and at|
the Monday and Tuesday €vening per-
formances at the Grand Theatre, this
place.
In it he is revealed as one of the

screen. His creation is in decided con- |

comes to him a wei
mental stress that entirely changes
the course of his life. Everything which
he has attained through years of s
ving is suddenly stripped frim him, and
the way he meets and copes with his
misfortunes makes a story of absorb-|
ing heart interest.
Married to a revue star who fal
love with another man, the
waiter suffers torments, which include
the death of the child to whom he is
so passionately devoted. “The Singing
Fool” runs the whole scale of human
emotions.
Jolson’s amazing gift for recognizing
those who have, like himself, the abil-
ity to transmit their feelings to oth-
ers, was demonstrated in his choice of
adorable three ye old Davy Lee to
play the part of “Sonny Boy” in “The
Singing Fool.” The cl was chosen
from among nearly two hundred appli-
cants.

The Cambria County Fair at Ebens-
| burg opened its gates Monday to the
| largest first day crowd in six-year
history. Over 42,000 wended their way,
single file, through the counting ma-
| chines. The crowds since have been up
) par, and the service clubs d Penn-
sylvania railroad day yeste )
brought thousands of people. In fact,
every day is a big day, and if weather
permits, the be of week will
| witness the fa rade good on the part
| of the board of directors to make this
the largest and best fair in the coun-
try.
Numerous improvements
added for the comfort and
ment of patrons since last year and
the 1929 exhibit of Cambria county
products of the soil is being staged on
larger proportions than ever before. As
| fair history runs, six years is not long,
but when the promoters and directors
of association, back in 1923-1924
| builded every structure with a view of
| permanency, as well as usefulness, they
laid the foundation for what in the
| brief span of six years has given to the
| people of Cambria and rrounding
| coun a fair grounds that is the env
{of many of the eastern agricultural
| regions.
| After making the rounds of the
| grounds, one thing impresses—the size
iof the fair. Everything crowded.
| There are so many pigs, cows, sheep
{and horses that sone of them have to
| sleep outdoors. The fair is a city in it-
| self. Nothing is lacking. A visit to any
land all of the livestock buildings im-
presses the standard of perfection at-
| tain by county farmers, who took the
| cue from the Schwab farms and have
| kept pace each year since the fair
started. The farmers have learned to
| help themselves and the standard of
stock in Cambria county has increas-
ed steadily in the past six years.
After making tI cunds of the fair,
| including the double midway, all the
| bui ings, and over to the race track
{ for the races and free hippodrome acts
| there’s nothing more to see to round
| out a full day. Everything worth see-
|ing is there.
| Exhibition hall is a building worth
| seeing. Here oné can have a picture
| taken, take out life insurance, buy
the latest in furniture, ladies’ ready-to-
| wear, a stove or a furnace, get an arm-
ful of souvenirs, and if feeling a 1
blue, order a tombstone or burial vault.
