At the request of many musical friends
has it been decided to omit the war songs
from the programme. Their musical
standard is not up to that of the other
numbers and they were placed there to
give Peace Jubilee aspect to this second
great Festival. While all rejoice that the
war is over the idea of Jubilee has faded
before the idea of sadness which fills every
heart as we look at the brave soldier boys
who have returned home such physical
wrecks. The spirit of patriotism is faint
with such scenes about US and the enthu-
siasm of two months ago is not to be ex-
pected from audience or singer.

celsior, which was such favorite last

greatest operatic arias The Full Chorus
and Orchestra win also take part. Every
music lover should be sure to attend this
great opening concert and add to the en-
|thusiasm whichlwill surely be feature Of

has ever had and no expense has been
spared to make this the greatest comedy
event of the season. Notwithstanding
the enormous expense there will be no
advance in prices, but the same will be
the popular, 10, 20, 80 cents.

perhaps you might be interested to
know that there are several of our friends
who have been greatly helped by the use
of Postum. Mrs. Ema Max used to be
greatly troubled with nausea and sick
headaches; Miss Addie Slight WAS cured
of stomach trouble; Charles Everson,
formerly suffered greatly with headaches
and nervousness; Miss Eliza Smith was a
great sufferer from severe bilious attacks.
All of these persons have been relieved of
their difficulties and put in new con-

them) and using the Postum Food Coffee.
