BIGGER BILL, w
PRICES, AT PRoCToR'S

Despite the recent reduction IN the
scale of prices at Proctor's Park
Place Theatre, the management of
that popular amusement resort an
nounces that beginning with next
week and throughout the winter sea-
son the number of acts placed on
view in each weeks bill will be in
creased to ten. This means that the
local vaudeville house is following
the example of the metropolitan the
aires in dispensing with the so-calIed
headliner. 1t is the purpose of the
local management, in other words, to
present ten acts of equal merit and
Of amusing worth and to raise this
standard to the highest degree.
Because of the increased length of
the bill the matinee performances will
begin promptly at 2 o'clock and the
evening performances at 8 o'clock.
Each act will begin promptly on
schedule time and persons desiring to
see only certain performers may make
their theatre appointments accord
ingly. This is also an innovation that
has been suggested by New York
practise in the management of vaude-
vile houses.
Prominent among the contributor
to mex weeks bill will be Miss Bolle
Story, "the sweet singer of sweet
songs" and 1t Is the tonal beauty, as
well as the plquant charm with which
she invests her delivery of quaint
character songs that has contributed
so much to her success.
Another contributor to the bill
whose reputation has extended over
two h~emispheres is Dave Ferguson,
one of the drollest chaps that ever
strayed on the boards.
The bill will also serve to bring
forth such talented entertainers as
Ethel McDonough, the dainty singing
coincidence; Roehm's Athletic Girls.
a novelty OF extraordinary attractive
ness; James Leonard and company. in
that hilarious farcical skit entitled
"When Caesar C's Herr" the Juggling
DeLisle, with his knapsack full of
surprises; Darrell and company, in a
singing speciality; Valentine VoX, the
noted ventriloquist; the LeToy broth
ers. in a novel acrobatic offering, and
Buckeyes animals. said to be n Of
the best acts of it's kind in the varle-
ties.
One OF. these happy combinations of
talent and entertaining worth Is rep
resented in the offering arranged for
presentation during the coming week
al the Lyric Theatre, in Market street,
where the Continuous" still enjoys
the height of popularity.
During the first three days Of the
week the bill will be dominated by
that mirth-compelling comedy skt en-
titled "a Day on Ellis Island"
During the latter half of the week,
beginning Thursday, the bill will be
headed by the delightful little panto-
mime c~opedietta, THE Flower of
Bagdad." The photo plays will con-
tinue as one of the attractive features
of the bill at this popular little play
house.
