The twosome has been appearing
in supner clubs and hotels through
out the country and has received
mote than favorable notices from
the nress.
The New York World-Telegram
termed the feature "an ingenious
, . , and delightful bit of entertainment
new church include a communion —both the singers have excellent
voices and the good tastfe not to
set out providing how mUch noise
they can make.”
Said the Boston Evening-Amori-
can: “Noble and King blejrid a pair
of personalities which have the del
icate tinkle of a music box These
two youngsters are so thrilling in
their two-phrt harmony that a lov
er of music owes a duty to himself
to hear them.”
The boosts from the press have
not been confined to the Atlantic
seaboard. After an appearance in
Chicago, the nair received the ac
claim of the Chicago Tribune which
termed their performance a “very
different singing act. They have an
individual approach and a warming
quality to their technique that is
superbly effective.”
The Chicago Herald-American
echoed the praise: “Their meteoric
rise to stardom has easily proved
their value as outstanding enter
tainment.”

day to obtain i|he perfection that
was exhibi|ted in the half-time cere

Leonodus became enraged when
all the other children had eggs for
Easter and (due to his having re
cently emerged from a Stint on the
Vesuvius rock pile) heiyres finan
cially unable to purchase eggs for
his little sister, Citronella.
Turning to the next best sub
stitute, Leonodus removed several
racks of balls from the tables of
his establishment for Citronella’s
amusement. This made Citronella
very happy, but had an opposite
effect on the leading citizens of the
town.
Two of them became so piqued at
this unorthodox procedure that they
appeared at the pool parlor in their
bast white ties and togas and their
worst moods. They demanded Leo
nodus to cease this folderol as it
was making their children iealous
and besides it was most Unbecom
ing of the bourgeois to carry on in
such a manner. Leonodua shrugged
his shoulders, produced a spiked
gauntlet and placed one of the
citizens in the “one” pocket and
the other n the “fifteen* pocket

better Easter egg you niajr have
to beat a hole in someone’s head
and that latin is not the language
of diplomacy.
A boiled ham for dinner bn Eas
ter is another time-honored habit
The professor tells us this is a sur
vival of the ancient custom among
the English] of eating a gammon of
bacon on that day to show their
contempt for those who were not
allowed to eat pork. Locally the
custom has been revised to have
roast beef for the holiday meal, al
though it is not quite clear what
the contempt is shown for. Several
people have suggested it night be
for the roast beef.
Final custom with a traceable or
igin is the Sunrise Service, This is
from the traditional belief 'that on.
Easter morning the sun dances and
that those who rise in time can see
it The custom of releasing 7,000
revealing Aggies upon the state’s
civilized centers for spring holi
days at Easter time has distorted
this to some extent..
The Aggies dance all night and
most of the morning and not one
has ever been known to rise in timej
or to have the visual facilities at
the time, to check and sec if the
sun is following suit
