''YanGilder Old Folks Concert
Troupe. is billed TO appear at
Hoofrs New Opera House, April %,
and ,26. The words great and
''"nly" in this connection, do not

time; two nights. Thursday and
Friday, April % and 70, at Hooff-
New Opera House; and with the ex-
ccption of Il few of the very old cho-
ruses, an entire change of program
each night, so if you don't so both
nights you will miss lots.
