THE MUSICAL GUARDsMEN

Is a singing orchestra, male quar-
tet and a glee club combined. When
they come marching to the platform,
singing in a rousing, cheering chorus
or playing a prancing military march
you will declare them the most popu-
lar attraction ever brought to Audi
bon. They are really two companies
in one big program. singing chorus
and a six-piece orchestra. You will
get more close harmony than a male
quartet. more rollicking action than
a college glee club, and as many
laughs as home talent minstrel
show. 1t is a wonderful company, the
last word In musical popularity.
Every member is trained musician
picked from hundreds of applicants
because of his ability to sing well and
also do good instrumental work.
