amusement famished by our young people
to that of traveling troops. We feel con
vinced that Jflss Klstler's entertainment
will be equal to, If not surpass, those we
have had In the past. We havo learned to
know Just what kind of amusement pleases
best and have endeavored to select a pro
gramme that will be certain to please. We

as we have selected the best we could find.
