The Lecture Course opens Monday
evening. The Stevenson Quartette is
we'll known throughout the country as
one of the best. Their violin playing
has been most highly appreciated wher-
ever they have appeared and with them
is Mr.. Wallace Bruce Amsbary of whom
the Washington Post says: He brings
to the platform something new in man
ner, and in variety of subject his work is
wonderful; tears and laughter follow
upon each other. The high school may
congratulate itself upon the choice oil
such pleasing entertainer as Wallace
Bruce Amsbary." Rev. Robert Nourse
who is we'll known in Edgerton, gives
this opinion of him; "Mr. Amsbary is
the most intellectual reader | ever
heard" This course will open we'll with
this company and all should plan to hear
them. s
