A hedge is always in good taste between the lawn and side- walk, on either side of the entrance walk, at side property limits, between the front and rear yards, around the gar- den, porch and garage, or to shield service areas. Fiore hedge stock comes direct from our own nurseries, and therefore is thoroughly acclimated for planting on your home grounds. OUR CATALOG GLADLY SENT ON REQUEST Telephone Highland Park 523 Gardening Prairie Avenue HIGHWOOD, ILLINOIS Landscape Amusements Leon Errol Escorts His Trick Pins to Granada Leon Errol, musical comedy and revue star, will make his bow to Gra- nada theater audiences beginning to- morrow. He will appear in "There It Goes" with a cast of stars, many of them brought here by Leon Errol himself. "There It Goes" is an extravaganza, said to be one of the most pretentious ever brought to a motion picture theater. It is the second of the "Ban- ner Month" shows at the Granada. Leon Errol has never before made a personal appearance in a motion pic- ture theater, having appeared exclu- sively for many years in such big re- vues and musical comedies as "Sally," "Louis XIV," 'Ziegfeld Follies," "Yours Truly" and many others. He is not cast in the show as an act but will work through the entire perform- ance of over one hour, repeating for Granada patrons the little stunts, songs, and antics which have gained for him his stardom and popularity. The famous collapsible leg will be much in evidence--in fact the title of the show, "There It Goes," has been named as a tribute to the wobbling and unsteady left leg that has created so much laughter among theater audi- ences in the last few years. The vitaphone will bring the voice of another great screen star to the Grana- da next week, for Lois Wilson, leading lady of a score of excellent photoplays, will be heard in a sketch entitled "Miss Information." 5%% MONEY Have funds to loan on choice im- proved North Shore Suburban res- idence property at 5% % interest.

It is the romantic story of two hard-boiled steel workers and of two girls, who are dainty and beautiful. Most of the action takes place high on the steel framework of a half-com- pleted building. The novelty of scenes filmed there is equalled by a sequence in an amusement park. "An ingenious and high-powered comedy," says one critic of Harold Lloyd's "Speedy," which is to be the main attraction at the Varsity Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of next week. Lloyd captures all the dash and excitement of Manhattan in this pic- ture. He took a year to make it, and it was time well expended. The picture is praised as a '"corking rib-tickler." Ann Christy was chosen from Holly- wood's" thousands of extras for the feminine lead because of her long hair. The famous Dorothy Mackaill-Jack Mulhall starring combination is not at all disappoining in' "Lady Be Good," coming to the Varsity next Thursday and Friday. The team goes over big in this® snappy 'screen version of the recent musical show. Dorothy is not only a clever comedienne and dancer but has a perfect right to lay claim to a perfect right--and left. Jack is better than usual as the young magi- cian who can get anything out of his hat but the rent money. JOHNNY DOOLEY DIES Johnny Dooley, comedian, who was recently seen at the Illinois theatre in Chicago with Earl Carroll's Vanities, died last week following an dperation for. intestinal trouble. Dooley, who was 38, had played in many Broadway musical shows, including "The Girl in the Spotlight," "Keep Cool," and "Listen Lester." Illinois' 20 tomato canneries had an output of 124,171 cases, or 3,980,104 cans, during 1927.
