FINE ATTRACTIONS
In the High School Course Arranged
For at Very Low Cost--Five
For One Dollar

The High school lecture course for
which arrangements have been per-
fected. will comprise five features, a
concert company, an entertainment
company, "A humorous lecturer a
dramatic recitation and reading and a
scientific lecture. The course will be
given under the auspices of the Cairo
High School. The fact that the same
people will appear at various other
points in this section including Car
bondale. Cape Girardeau, Mt Vernon,
Du Quoin and Centralia. enables the
Cairo High school to secure them at a
cost that will enable them to offer
the attractions 10 the Cairo public at
the very low price of $ for the course,
Another fact which contributes to low
cost is that the attractions VIII be CIV

thus saving the rental of a hall.
One of the high purposes of the
course is to afford intellectual enter
tainment for the young people of the
city, who have ordinarily little oppar-
tunity for diversion except that found
in dances, theatre, skating rink, etc.
