The course of entertainments engaged
by the lecture and entertainment commit
tee of the.a Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation for this season is of superior order
of talent, and will no doubt receive the
liberal patronage il deserves. There are
some people who like musicals and not
lectures, while others prefer lectures and
care little for musicals The course en-
gagged by the Y. NJ. c. A. should please
the most fastidious, comprising as it does
TWO musical attractions, one of twenty
SIX men, the other of six gifted ladies',
and three lectures, whose subjects are
quite varied. one being on THE Keys to
Success the other two on The Bells"
and THE Campaign and Battles of San
tiago," respectively.
Edward Box, whose name is familiar in
almost every home, where he Is known
as the editor of the Ladies Home Journal
and a young man whose success has been
marked, will open up the course Nov. l,
with his delightful talk THE Keys to
Success" thus giving what many have

Glee club singing is always popular
and the fact that the Rutgers College
Glee and Mandolin Club, composed of
cwenty-six men, will appear in the course
will surely draw a large house. Those
who have heard the Rutgers state that
there is no superior college glee club on
the platform. This will be sixteenth sea-
son of this successful clubs history. Rich
mond has had them twice and they are
booked there again this season.
Some one has written: ''If one were
asked to name the two men who stand
at the head of the ranks of American
lecturers there might be some difficulty
in making a prompt reply However,
there would be no hesitation in naming
DR.. Robert Nourse as one of them" The
impression of DR.. Nourse's dramatic abil-
ity here a few years ago is still fresh
in the minds of those who were privileged
to hear him.
Another attraction secured is John Fox,
Jr,, the author, reader and more recently
the war correspondent for Harpers Week
ly. Among the story writer's that have
compelled public attention these last few
years none have won more rapidly so
enviable a reputation as John Fox, Jr.,
of Kentucky. His stories, THE Ken
tuckians," "a Cumberland Vendetta, and
Other Stories" have been widely read.
As a reader and lecturer Mr.. Fox has been
a pronounced success. There is a mag
netism about him that holds interest
from beginning 20 end.
The closing number of the course is
very strong one, 1t being the famous
Ariel Ladies' Sextette, who are on their
seventh successful concert tour. These
Smith sisters, six sweet songsters, have
a programme which is sure to please, con-
ssting of solos, duets quartette and sex
tetts One of the sisters is also an except
ionally fine reciter. They have proved to
be one of the most popular concert at
fractions in America.
Among other advantages the course
ticket holders have the first pick at re-
serve seats, the seats selected at that
time being also good for the entire season.
