The above list is the schedule of
talent for the 1928 season of the
Grand Junction lyceum course under
the auspices of the Y. NJ. C. A.
While the numbers have been de-
creased from eight to six the quality
has been greatly enhanced and only
the best speakers, entertainers and
readers in the country have been
picked for the seasons offerings.
The Ben Greet Players have
achieved a national reputation. Ten
men and women, trained under the
critical eye of that master of Shakes
pearean drama, Ben Greet, produce
the best of dramas and tragedies be-
fore the audience. giving a perform
ance such as cannot be excelled by
any living coterie of platform ar
lists. In this city they will give
either "A Comedy of Errors" or
Goldsmith's She Stoops to Con-
quer." The costuming and scenic
properties of these presentments are
the very first quality.
Miss Ridgeway has made name
for herself in both east and west as
reader. Her genius is of that COM
polling sort that insist upon recogni-
tion in high places and she is now
admittedly one of the great women
readers of the world Her program
is not announced at this time
Gov. Herbert S. Hadley is not less
known than the other talent on the
course. His constructive administra-
tion in Indiana and his ability as
platform orator have secured him
permanent place in lyceum work.
Judge Alden was here a year ago.
His lecture on "The Needs of the
Hour" struck a popular chord and he
vas in such great demand that the
committee decided to place him on
the program this year. In speaking

most pronounced type. His address
this year will be on The Powder and

much more powerful manner that his
former subject. 1t is declared to be
a wonderful speech
The Strollers Quartette was here a
few months ago 1t is one of the
exceptionally pleasing small compan.

will be a source of much satisfaction
for the people to know that they will
be here again.
Ralph Bingham is too well known
10 need more than bare mention
here. Thirty-five years of lyceum
tours have endeared him to hundreds
of thousands of people who live his
inimitable humor. his CHEEKY stories
and his matchless art as a reader. He
has been heard by at least a hundred
Grand Junction men and women who
have insistently demanded for him
place on the next course.
An opportunity will be given the
| audience at the Newens lecture
Thursday evening to secure theii
tickets for the coming course. The
season ticket price will remain the
same as last year.
