AN IDEAL DAY FOR
OPENING NEW THEATRE
RED FEATHER CAME IN ON A
SPECIAL TRAIN THIS AFTER.
NooN-lT is A LARGE CON-
PANY AND A GREAT EVENT IS
IN STORE FOR PEOPLE.

It seems that Palestine is lucky.
Who ever saw a more beautiful day
for our eventful opening? Everything
is ready. The large company came in
today on a special train from Little
Rock. and fairly filed our streets as
they came from the depot. They are
all nice-looking people, and we pre-
dict that the show will be the best
ever seen in Palestine, or in this sec
ton of the state.
The seats are selling fast, and when
the curtain goes up we expect to see
crowded house. We are informed
that the house will be well heated and
that everything will be comfortable
and enjoyable
Our business men have endorsed
the enterprise, and are going to close
their stores early so that all can at
tend. This will be the biggest theatre
cal event in the history of Palestine,
and the show is one that most people
would have to pay railroad fare to a
large city to get to see.
Let us all be there and show that
Palestine is awake, and appreciates
its new opera house.
