PACKARD AS AN ENTERTAINER

In an instructive, amusing and most interesting way, Alton Pack ard, the famous cartoonist, enter tained an audience of no less than $50 Tempe people at the Normal au ditorium Friday evening. His work with the crayons was in some in stances almost beyond imagination. ! The first part of the program, a portrayal with the crayons of prac- tically every class of citizens within or belonging to the U. s. A. was ex- Iceptionally interesting. Again at the close with a landscape view the car 1 toonist commanded enraptured in- i terest from his audience. Aside from the crayons MT. Packard is most successful entertainer. With his short spicy stories and piano seIec-
 tions he kept the audience in a fit of laughter or in tears, just accord
 ing to his liking. Surely if all the
 remaining numbers of the lecture
 course are as interesting as the en-
 tertainment by Mir. Packard season
 ticket holders will get all of theil ) moneys worth.
