state.
Lending local interest to the oper-
etta itself is the fact that Mrs. Al-
fred Frobese, a former Cuero girl
and one of the most talented singers
of this section will take one of the
leading roles. A varied musical pro-
gram will precede the operetta being
contributed by Cuero talent.
The story of the “Rose of Savoy”
is told in choruses, duets, and color-
ful solos by an attractive cast of
splendid voices. A bevy of beautiful
girls add a suitable background for
the leads. The music is tuneful and
catchy interspersed with short com-
edy speaking parts by sewing girls in
the modiste^ shop.
The plot centers about Lissette
and Jacqueline, two sisters of Savoy
who have long been separated. The
one rises to fame as a gTeat singer
while the other sells flowers on the
streets and in shops for a livelihood
and for money to return home. Quite
by accident the sisters meet in the
shop of Miss Chippens a modiste of
New York where they are happily re-
united. A fitting climax to the operet-
ta la the duet^by the sisters, Lisette
and J^cquelfife. played by Mrs. Alfred
Frobese and Mrs. Annie Laurie Corry,
entitled “Heart to Heart” assisted by
the chorus-of thirty sewing girls.
“Not remember my own niece,*
Adele exclaimed, reaching oat oni
band to the girl. “Of course, I re*
member Mildred." She kissed hen
and waa kissed shyly In return.
“Aid Jobs—of course you remem-
ber John.” Masle palled her shrink-
ing husband forward, into the cen-
ter of the crowd.
“Oh, ray dear, yes." Adele clasped
John's band in both hers, and no-
ticed his awkwardness and embar-
rassment at the meeting. Her eyes
sparkled mischievously. She real-
ised that John was Intensely ner-
vous under the gaae of his fellow
citlseas. as he met his, to his way
of thinking, notorious sister-in-law.
So with a neat little torn Adele
stood on tip-toe and kissed John
soundly on the mouth, leaving a
streak of scarlet along his upper
lip.
“Well, well. Addle, as I live,“
John returned feebly, and, under
the nudglnga of hla wife and her
glances towards hla month, wiped
the rouge from bts lip. *

The merit of ice lies in its ideal balance of atmospheric condi-
tions. It causes the air in a refrigerator to circulate. It keeps the air
cold enough and not too cold; dry enough, but not too dry. It keeps
the air moist enough to keep fpod at its best.
And it always works automatically. 'When the air is warmer
the ice melts faster and thus keeps the temperature just right. When
it is cooler the ice melts more slowly to maintain the same cold.
Ice never gets out of order; does not frost or become insulated.
All that is necessary is to keep the ice chamber properly filled.
More and more housewives are doing this all the time—winter as
well as summer. They know it pays. There is no refrigerant i like
