The Lecture Course IN johnson this
wear has been engaged from the White En-
tertainment Bureau of Boston. The five
entertainments, which are to be given
unoer he auspices uf the Normal School,
have heeu arranged MS follows:
On Nov. II, The Brewer Musical Enter
tainers will open the course. Rarely do
we find three such talented and versatile
girls in one company. The three Brewer
sisters viii give mixed program consist
ing of violin, trombone, clarionet, vocal,
and piano solos, duets and trlos, inter-
spersed with suitable readings by Miss
Ruth Brewer. This entertainment alone
often brings SOC admission.
On Dec. 10, Marcellie, talented magic
ian and Yogi wonder worker, will appear
and will charm as well as mystify by the
deftness of his movements in legerd, main.
Besides the ordinary tricks of magic, hyp-
notism and ventriloqulsm, Marcellie
performs many East Indian tricks, includ-
lug the wonderful smoke stlck", where
five or six men grasp stick and try to
hold it TO the floor, but despite their eff
forts the stick rises as Mercellie talks to it.
Don't miss seeing Marcellie or you'll re-
greet it.
On Jan. 5, DIR. G. w. Ray, Fellow of
the Royal Geographical Society of Eng
land, will give his world famous lecture,
Through Five Republics on Horseback"
DR.. Ray is known to Scientific men as the
Livingstone of South America"
DR.. Ray has perhaps greater wealth of
strange experiences than any other plat
form lecturer today, and he describes them
to his audiences in most agreea BILE man
ner. Mount Ray in Bolivia is named for
him i'll honor of his work for the Bolivian
Govt. His lecture is rare treat and you
can't afford to miss it. In it he shows
many rare curios which add greatly to its
interest.
On Feb. 10, 1916, "The Virginians", a..
colored mixed quartet of national reputa-
ton, will charm the audience with lnstru
mental music and song. Though each
singer is a soloist of ability, the colored
singers have rare talent in singing the
plaintlve southern melodies to the strains
of the banjo in a way that reaches the
hearts OF all hearers The Virglo ians are
first class entertainers and are worth
going miles to hear.
Finally on March 8, 1916, Edward H.
Frye, monologue artist, who enjoys the
reputation of having more return dates
than any other monologue artist in the
state of Vermont last year, will render,
david Harum", or some other equally
good number. Those who have heard HIM
are always "anxIous to hear him again.,
for be is winner every time.
