"Liberati and his band gave a large
audience nearly three hours OF whole
some entertainment at the state fair

dered program which was faultless
from the artistic standpoint and yet
which was appreciated by every one
present. The occasion was a complete
REPUTATION Of the idea thai mixed
western audience has little ke for the
higher grades Of musical composition.
Every number was we'll received and the
distinguished leader was liberal in re-
spending to encores. The cornet solos
by Liberati revealed the mans mas
terry OF his instrument and showed
that the reputation which he has had
for so many years has rested on firm
foundation. 1t is foregone conclu-
sion that Liberati and his band will be
one OF the immensely popular features
of fair week"
