"Lucio" At
Palisades Park

The season of summer amusements
are now on in earnest at Schenck
Brothers Palisade Amusement Park,
and the resort offers more features
than ever before. Each week brings
new attractions to the playground by
the score. This fact is true of both
the concessions, and free entertain
ment 1t is doubtful if there has
been more interesting bill of vaude-
vile novelties. The walking match
of George N. Brown excited much
enthusiasm among those interested
in athletics. Brown holds the world
championship for heel and toe walk
ing.
Other free attractions include
Arthur E. Holden, another with
title of worlds championship for div
ing; Frank Goodale, the aviator, who is
making daily flights in his miniature
Zeppelin. Fireworks are now given
twice weekly every Tuesday and
Thursday nights directly after the
free entertainment.
In the Palisade Amusement Park
Theater, the Avitabile- Martelli Eng
lish Opera Company are offering an
excellent company in standard operas.
The offering this week is Lucia"
which has pleased large audiences all
week. Next week commencing Mon
day June 10 the company will appear
in "Riggoletto."
A complete scenic and electrical
equipment will embellish the opera,
which will be sung by cast of fifty
voices.
This company is without doubt
the most pretentious ever seen at a
summer theater. Every member OF
the big organization is an artist of
remarkable ability, who have already
established themselves with operate
companies located in important cent
ers of population.
The company is not one that has been
thrown together for the summer sea-
son, as it is year round organization,
playing on tour of the principal cities
of the country. The cast is much
stronger this summer than usually
seen with the Avitabile-Martelli COM

FEDERAL AGENT SCORES U. S.

HiNm ] WAN ] Az
Scores went to 628 S. State st. in
answer to a want ad for an Office
clerk, which appeared in the Daily
News two days ago They found the
place to be a United States marine
recruiting station.
No Office clerk was wanted. Such
clerks are elevated from the service,
not taken green. What was wanted
were candidates for enlistment in the
service at SIS a. month, board, cloth
ing and the privilege of bearing arms.
Those who had clerical experience
were told that if they showed ability
and a vacancy occurred they would
be promoted to a clerkship job at
from $25.25 to $50 a month.
The ad cannot be classed as an
out-and-out fake, but it was mislead-
ing. There was nothing in the ad to
indicate that 628 S. State st. was a
recruiting office.
While it is not a purely fake ad, it
is in violation of the advertisement
campaign the federal industrial re-
latiOns commission is conducting. In
some states 1t would be In violation
of law.

tons commission, in referring to the
marine recruiting station ad.
There is no law in Illinois which
outlaws or makes a criminal offense
of the insertion of such an ad, but
