Among these was gam- bling In any vicious form. Melville has been in the outdoor amusement business for several years. He mar- ried Mrs. Nat Reiss following the death ^f her Arst husband, and has been sioo*' maiuigiag the Reigs shows. Tom Johnson, the Chicago law- yer, and who U said to own a read- bouse or dance hail in Jadlaaa, is known as the "Commissioner" of the 9. U C. Mr. Johnson wished himself into the office by promising the outdoor showmen if they got into trouble he would get them out The S. it. C. some time aco loet all of its popularity with the shofir- men formerly members. But few remain with It. the others with- drawing through Johnson Insistth^ that by virtue of a Loairact he held with the organization he must be retoined. Now the showmen ar» saying that if Johnson couldn't save the president of the S. L. C, what could hei do for an ordinary mem- berf '■''.,■:,;'. Quite recently "The Country Gen- tleman," which had been r^anning the carnivals conslAtentiy.'published an article by Johnson informing the paper's readers how things had changed with the'boys; also that he was still c;-^'.^ ./ watching all of the outdoor shows and he (John- son) could be depended upon. Those who read the story and udderstood accepted It ae • club to force re- tiring members of the 8. I*. C. to stick around and come acroB*. ^ HOLBORN ElffIRE (Continued from page •) accumulated a routine of bits un- familiar to the present generation of vaudeville patrons In America, that would stamp them as rather novel if they essayed an engage- ment at home. They hava the plate breaking lil(e Bedini and Arthur, the slipping down steps lilte Al Leach, and the acrobatic falls like Rloe and Prevost, and so on. In addition, they have a lot of what appears 10 be ufigina! comedy, alt of which goes to make for a most excellent closing tirn. Joio. If yoa don't Adrertise in Don't Advertt*«
