, middle west after his phenomenal sue
cess of 100 nights on Hammerstein

that memorable engagement. Creators
had never been heard of. but after his

Creatore was flashed across the con.

right off their seats, and after the
climax of every big number, the audi
ence would almost go mad with wild
demonstrations of enthusiasm, until
one could hear them yelling and shout
ing Bravo" ont i'm the street. All the
greatest critics in New York agreed
that never before had they ever heard
or seen such a wonderful and thrilling
performance, and almost every news
paper displayed front page cartoon
of Creatore in grotesque contortions,
while reekng out the thunderous eli
makes from his lusty musicians.
Since that time Creatore and his band
have made numberless visits to the
principal cities of America, and he is
now so well established in the hearts
Of all classes of music lovers. from
the dyed-in-the-wool devotee OF Wag-
ner, Beethoven, Mozart or Brahms to
the less cultured but demonstrative
followers OF rag-time, that the mere
announcement of his coming is quite
sufficient to fiji the house nightly.
During his engagement in the Wayne
Casino. Creatore will produce MANY
new works never before played here
by his band. but he will also give ell
the old standbys, such as the great
Carmen number. Tannhauser Over
ture. Sextet from Lucia" Quartet
from Rigoletto, etc. Creatore will
conduct every concert including the
matinees and popular prices will pre-

Appropriation Made for Fairgrounds

II is the avenue for business and the
childish romping which so often IN
terferes with business in the streets
is a nuisance. Yet If there is no other
place for them who can be so indiffer-
ent to their welfare as to prevent the
boys and girls from indulging their
youthful spirits in the delightful
games for which only the streets az
ford them room?
Washington, with al It's beautiful
parks and It's well kept squares, is pit
fully lacking In the matter Of play
grounds for the school children Many
Of the school buildings have not the
least vestige OF ground inclosed about
them, but stand squarely against the
sidewalk and are squeezed on either
side by dwellings. The children at
tending these schools are permitted
to congregate In the street and on the
sidewalks opposite the building and
instructed to play quietly" II is well
for congress to take more active cog
nizance Of this need for Fairgrounds
and provide well for them. The sen.
ates amended appropriation is not
nearly enough to do all that IS re.
qulred, but It is a worthy beginning
and Washington's parents as well as
children are thankful for It.
