THE PIERCES COME
 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Lyceum Offering this Evening at the High School Will
 Be Great Treat.

The sketch work of Harry Raymond Pierce and Zulette Spencer Pierce. known in the Lyceum as The Pierces, and who are to appear here this even- ing at the High School auditorium, have few equals and few superiors on the platform. Both of these talented people have had life training in their work, and they give to their in depreciation of character a subtle shading which makes them more than attractive. Their repertoire is large, and every desire of the audience it met, the gamut of emotions being ruh in the interpretation of the various characters which they portray. They successfully blend humor and pathos with an under-current of the moral uplift needed in the tragedies and com edies of daily life. Each can give a very satisfactory program alone The combination of their talents makes an exceptionally strong attraction.
