|reopening of the Lyric are of very
high class character and feature
some of the best artists in the busi-
ness. After the long rest from enter
tainments of all kinds undoubtedly
the house will be crowded on the
opening nights.
AS the influenza has about died out
there is little danger Of further
spread of the disease from the gather
ing of crowds. However, it would be
well for those having the malady in
the family to refrain from attending
the theater until all the patients af-
flicted are entirely recovered. Peo-
pie should take this precaution for
the protection of their neighbors and
to aid as much as possible in eradicat-
ing the disease entirely from the COM
munity.
