Oh! Girls Look!
FRANCIS X. BUSHMAN
is COMING TO NATCHITCCHES.

Francis x. Bushmau, exalted sover-
eign of the screen, and sweetheart of
every pretty girl in America will pay
the A-Muz-U Theatre visit on Friday,
Nov. 18th, in Graustark.
Graustark is the most popular book
ever written, and has been made into a
great photo drama by the popular
Essanay players. The play is teaming
with beautiful scenes through the
entire six acts and is the kind of story
that Will make ones blood run hot.
Few photoplays of the magnitude of
Graustark are seen in cities the size of
Natchitoches as the price is prohibit
tive, but Managers Levy and Suddath
of the A-Muz-U, are sparing no expense
to give their patrons the best.
The New York Morning Telegram
says: Graustark is greater in pictures
than it ever was on the speaking stage.
The acting of Beverly Bayne and
Francis X. Bushman is all-Inspiring,
See it without fail.

pear at the NOrnli on November
26, as advertised. Instead on that
date. Madame DOrother North
a Soprano sollst of unusual power
and brilliancy, will give a song
recital. Madame North is enter
ing upon her fourth successful
season of concert and oratorlo
W ork in this country. She receiv-
ed most of her training in Paris
and Berlin under the great voice
teachers of France and Germany.
Her debut in Berlin was an un-
usual success for an American
artist,
Gifted with rich voice of I'M
usual range and searching sweet
ness, and a charming, magnetic
personality, she never fails to
please her audiences. Her re
cltals are always something to
treasure in the memory of musical
experiences.
The ZoeIIner String Quartette
will be heard here in February.
In the same month will appear the
Fuller Sisters, interpreters of
English folk songs, while in Janu-
airy the l.. 5. u. Male Quartette
will probably appear. In Deem
Der Harold A. Loring, the we'll
known interpreter Of Indian
songs, is ascheduled for recital.
OF course the Ben Greet Players
will return to Natchitoches in May
to duplicate their success of last
season. 1t is quite probably that
others will be added to this list.
