BURK'S JUNGLE TOM" Will
APPEAR HERE ON MAY II

Miles Berry, general agent for
Burk's big Uncle Toms Cabin com
pany, is in town today, arranging for
the production of this popular drama
in Winnemucca on Wednesday evenig,
May 12. This is said to be the largest
Uncle Tom show on the road and has
travelled under the same management
for 10 years. The show will be given
under canvas and will be here for the
one night only.
Next to the Bible, Harriet Beecher

probably had the largest circulation of
any book ever written, having been
translated into every known living
tongue. Written shortly before the
Civil War, it had a powerful effect on
the minds of the people of the north
and perhaps had greater influence ia
striking the blow for human freedom
than any other single factor. Although
a new generation has grown up, to
whom the war and its issues are prae-
tically meaningless, the graphic story
Of Uncle Tom never grows old and
will go down the stream of time side
by side with Shakespeare plays.
