Lecture Tuesday Evening, Feb. %.

Thomas Brooks Fletcher is to be at
the opera hall Tuesday evening, Feb.
23d. This is the fourth number in the

to be one of the greatest attraction 5
Of the entire course Thomas Brooks
Fletcher is probably excelIed by few,
if any. public speakers of the present
time, pre-eminentIy a scholar and a
student of human nature, his lectures
always ring true. His topics are
always of the most vital nature. and
probably no man of the present time
has as commanding personality and
effective manner as has Mr. Fletcher
No one should miss this opportunity
to hear his lecture Tuesday evening.
You 90 to concerts to be entertained
but you will never be better enter
tanned and at the same time receive
some vital truths presented in so force
full a manner that you will always
retain them as living truths. Mr..
Fletcher is essentially a dramatist and
all the dramatic and imprisoned fire
of a great actor is apparent ia his
lectures. The opportunity to listen to
so eminent a man as Thomas Brooks
Fletcher will come but seldom in a
lifetime. There should be no regrets
later that you did not hear his lecture,
because the opportunity is now afforded
you.
