Course Costs over $3.50.

The ladies Of the Round Table club
Of GoOdland have secured five attract
i've entertainments for the coming five
months at cost Of more than $3.50. The
series Of entertainments are pOpularly
known as lecture course, but as that
name scsres q good many people who
nevertheless would like to be touched CT
even lifted with the power Of art, the
ladies are anxious to have it known that
the class Of men and women who are to
make GoOdland IN this course are draw
ing cards In the largest towns and the
cities Of the states
Among the numbers which have been
submitted to the club from the Kansas
City headquarters Of the Inter State
Lecture bureau of Cincinnati Chicago,
are such noted entertainers as the Tyrol-
can YOdlers and Concert company, Of
Bavaria; Phil Hunter, the wizard, who
performs marvellous feats in black art;
the AriOn Male Quartette, supplement
ing their songs with performa noes upon
chimes, and Montaville Flowers, who
with his merry heart doeth good like a
medicine.
Owing to the high price these enter
tanners receive, which calls for large
support in the towns they visit, this is
the first year the lecture course has been
tackled in GoOdland. But trusting upon
the loyalty and the eutertainment-going
people Of the town the Round Table
club has contracted to receive a series of
five entertainments for which they agree
to pay about $3.50. Considerable long
headed figuring is being done and a
good deal OF energy being expended to
see that the first number of the course
Is made success, and after that the
club has no fears as to the patronage Of
the rest of the program. 1t is the way
new enterprises have to be launched,
and though the ladies viii have 10
bottles OF champagne to break upon the
the beak of their new yacht, it is never
theless delightful boat to ride IN.
The first event OF the course comes OF
October 3. MontsEille Flowers will I'LL
that date. He is a reader, lecturer
and entertainer. Men are generally
paid what they are worth, no more, and
with this information in hand it is an
inside hint to the public to say that
Mr.. Flowers viii get SO for his appear
ance IN GoodIand. This is a recon
mendatiOn people pay attention to. By
ron King, who has Iectured IN GOOdIand
twice and both times largely attended
and well received, Is only $50 man.
Aside from the date Of October 3, the
dates for the other four have not as yet
been arranged but an effort is being made
to have them come about a month
apart. The five attractions IN the order
they will appear in Goodland are as fol
lows: First, MontaEiIle Flowers; second
Arion Male Quartette; third, Phil Hunt
er, the wizard; fourth, Ralph Parlette
fifth, Tyrolean YOdlers and Concerf
company, of Bavaria.
In order to come out even the ladies o.
the club say they viii have to charge 81
cents admission. That is the price
charged in all of the towns for the sans
class Of attractions However, to thos,
who viii take a season ticket a rate o
. for the five entertainments will b.
made.
