Everything in the line of exhibits is being shown as predicted. Exposi-- . tion buillings are full almost to overflowing. New. buildings were erected before the opening of the fair, and incoming exhibits arriving at the last moment were cared for in even additional quarters. This was true especially in ' the livestock department, where over twice the number of exhibits were received this year over any previous year. The first annual kennel show opened with the fair, showing 165 entries. The first annual radio show is attracting great interest through its booths and its broadcasting station. The poultry show, housed in its new building, is creating much interest at the fair because of its exhibits of Utahs finest feathered specimens. There is plenty of entertainment at the fair. Besides the radio broadcasting, there will be a band contest each day to and including Sunday, when the finals will be held. There are outdoor acrobatic and aerial acts both afternoon and evening.

It takes a large cast to produce this play and it is presented in a most natural and pleasing manner. Lucile Holder, who has just joined the company, is an attractive miss. She and Josephine Chal-le- n are a young couple who climb the social ladder of fame, which brings abount many interesting situations of comedy and many perplexing problems which naturally result in the experience of those who try to elevate themselves in the social world. Ralph Cloninger and Mary Newton are a young married couple who are known as John and Jane Allen. May Roberts and Victor Gallard are the parents of Jane. Every smart set must have a young couple in it. Victor Jory and Ray Clifford are the cutups and villains. Its a social mix-u- p in which every member of the company comes in for a qualifying role, and it is a play which the Wilkes patrons greatly enjoy. HAROLD LLOYD he imitates others who have been popular. Instead of expressing his own personality, he is a reflection of every ones pranks and tricks, because of a boobish willingness to do everything asked of him all in the hope of becoming the prince of regular fellows! Harold Lamb, as the character is named, is a pathetic figure, so that, even while you laugh at him you are filled with sympathy for him, and when he finally triumphs you want to join the whole college in cheering him.
