I The fact that the Wright Players are | presenting it is a guarantee of the j j worth of the performance itself. I "It s A Hoy" opens joyously as the ' ' Chester Blakes await arirval of a first born. When it was announced "it's a boy ”■ the father swells with pride and immediately becomes ambitious. Operator of a 5 and 10 cent store, he has withstood attempts of a corpora tion to buy him out. Now. with an heir | he accepts a SIO,OOO salary from the I company in a larger city and surrenders his lease. Then calamity drops in. At the end of the first year the salary has disappeared and the job follows it. “It's A Boy" has its moments of , drama yet it is essentially a laughing Play. 'the usual Wednesday and Saturday bargain matinees will be offered. -It SHORT TALKS BY THOUGHTFUL MOTHERS A Louisinia (New- Orleans) Mother speaks: "Our ( hint had a eougli that almost strangled her.

IT IS MORE THAN JUST SAVING! Saving money insures you against the “rainy day” and provides for the emergencies that arise in everyone’s life. But there is more Ilian that in saving. The (.haracler building influence of steady consistent savings is one of the greatest by-products that comes from tin habit of thrift. Save, by all means, to insure your future independence. but stive too because of the knowledge anti satisfaction that you are a better citizen in tloing it. SAVE AT THIS BANK.
