this season, as the business men OF
this place will spare no pains to make
it one of the most entertaining. The
price is so reasonable that no one can
afford to miss any part of it, the sea-
son tickets for adults being only $3.50
and one dollar for children. Single
tickets for adults so cents, and 20
cents for children-an almost continu-
al entertainment. Each day from 10
a. m. to $50 p. M, consisting of lee
lures, reading, sketches, plays. games
for children, etc., accompanied by
some of the best musical talent that
could be secured. A sample of which
is the "Grossman Hungarian OrcheS-
ira" which one person who had heard
it remarked that he would be willing
to pay the price of a season ticket to
hear it aloud once more, and if you
have not already received one just
drop a postal to the Bloomington Re-
cord and receive one of our folders
which will explain all in the shape of
a detailed program.
