Des Moines Lyceum Bureau that the
opening number of the course of en-
tertainments which has been secured
for the winter will be lecture by
Wilson A. Price, A. NJ, "The Four
largest Ships," ON Saturday evening
December 9Th, at the school auditor
ium. In reading over his press no.
tices it appears that he is man
who makes friends wherever he goes,
that once on the platform his au-
dience is with him and that his en-
tertainments never fail to please.
We quote a few of the notices he
has received.
"Prof. w. A. Price is a great sue
cess as lecturer because he is able
to entertain and instruct at the
same time. His lectures never fail
to please. He was pronounced by
the large audience that heard him
give the Commencement address this
spring, as one Of the best ever had."
H. L. Cecil, Supt. Of Schools, Gar
ner, Iowa.
Thoroughly interesting and en-
joyable from every point of view was
the Commencement address, Prof.
Wilson A. Price, of Highland Park
College, rendered for US at the Com
mencement. Mr.. Price held the au-
dience spellbound and was applau-
ded from beginning to end. He is a
lecturer of very high order and a.
bility so versatile that he can hold
the attention of any audience. in
vited him back the same night for
the following spring.. J. Rance,
Prin. Schools, Miles, Iowa.
