An attack of homesickness and a longing for a re-association with American audience^ compelled the sprightly and talen comedienne to return and assist in the rehabilitation of the legitimate theat er. A decade ago Charlotte Greenwood was the standout comedienne of the, American theatre. Her fame was known from Maine to California through her performances in such popular successes as "So Long Letty," "She Couldn't Say No," and "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath." _ Interesting offers agers enticed Miss Greenwood to Lon don. In the English metropolis she duplicated her American success by scoring in three hits, "Wild Violets," "Three Sisters" and "The Gay Deceiver" at Drury Lane theatre, London's most important playhouse. Henry Duffy, the well-known American producer, sent Miss Greenwood a manuscript of a new play to London for consideration before she took a boat for home. It was "Leaning on Letty," a comedy-drama penned by Wilbur Daniel Steele and Norma Mitchell. A gripping, thrilling play on kidnapping humorously treated. It intrigued and influenced her return. On arrival in New York Miss Greenwood and Mr. Duffy, after a conference, closed contracts for a starring tour. And on next Sunday night in Chicago at the Selwyn theatre, charming Charlotte Greenwood will again make a bid for popularity with her legion of admirers in this territory, presenting "Leaning On Letty." Mr. Duffy has surrc^mded the lovable star with a fine company of play-y era, the most notable being Percy Kilbride, original selection for the "star" role in "3 Men On A Horse" before its New York staging, Romaine Callender, Isabel Withers, Virginia Howell and Boyd Irwin. During Miss Greenwood's engage ment at the Selwyn, matinees are scheduled for Wednesday and Saturday each week. An extra matinee is announced for Thanksgiving Day, 37th LIVESTOCK SHOW TO OPEN ON NOVEMBER 28 FORD BRAKES ARE IMPROVED] necessary to actuate the cables to the wheels, and also incorporates Jhe connection to the hand brake. x America's annual continental congress of agriculture, the International Live Stock Exposition, will be held November 28 to December 5 in the new International Amphitheater at the Chicago Stock Yards.

The new brakes have improved "stopping" efficiency but approximately one-third less pedal pressure is re- FINDS STOLEN fcAR Andrew Eddy went to Chicago Sunday to get his car that was stolen several weeks ago. The car had been abandoned on an outlying street and as the number had not been reported, in the list of stolen cars for Chicago it was only when they commenced stopping the cars that the police noticed it. ; • al.'of this largest annual exhibition (and-conduit operated and have «?onof purebred farijn animals and crops j ti-blleci "self-energizing" action; Imin the country, and according to the j P°ftant features are continued, includmanagement, one of the biggest shows I 'nP full-length, large area linings, self centering shoes and floating wedge actuation. The parking brake lever has bet.: moved to a convenient position under the instrument panel, where it is out of the way of passengers. In the Ford self-energizing design, the rotation of Jw)Jb wheels assists in increasing the^jfraking force, substantially reducing^the pedal pressure necessary. This .Action is controlled effectively. For stopping or decreasing speed under normal conditions, a slight pressure on the pedal is all that is necessary. As pressure is increased, as for a hard or suddfen stop, the mechanical braking assistance decreases. It disappears entirely when the pedal is pressed "hard down," the pedal pressure alone actuating the brakes. In this way braking control is entirely in the hands of the driver. The cable-conduit design is unusually simple. The conduits sheath the cables from where they leave the frame to where they enter the wheel brakes. At their other ends the cables are attached to the brake cross-shaft levers. ^ Hie design of the system is such that the axles are not affected by brake operation, nor is the brake operation affected by axle motion due to spring flexibility. The new brake mechanism is unusually quiet. The brake cross-shaft assembly is newly designed with exceptional rigida Sunday guest in the Henry Kinsala' ity and freedom from flexure. A single home. steel forging includes all the levers in its history, Expect 13,000 Animals B. H. Heide, secretary-manager of the Exposition, states that plans are now under way to house over 13,000 animals at the 1930 show. He reports that entries are pouring in from leading stockmen and farmers in nearly every state in the Union and province of Canada, listing their prize herds and flocks for the competitions that will feature more than thirty different breeds of draft and light horses, beef cattle, sheep and swine. Approximately $100,000 will be paid in cash premiums to winning exhibitors in the various divisions of the Exposition, says Heide. Entries Ckaed No*. 1 Entries for the livestock classes closed on November 1, with the exception of the carlot contests for commercial stock that are displayed in stock yard open pens. Feeders feave until November 2l to reserve space for exhibits in this event. All of the purebred herds, steers, wethers, and pigs listed for individual competitions, and displays of farm crops in the International Grain and Hay Show will fill to capacity the seven acfes of exhibit area in the huge new building constructed here two years ago as a permanent home for the Livestock Show.
