things, he stated that the members of

est effort resulting from the war and
cannot fail to create a sensation here
as IT has everywhere else.
Although last seasons so-caIled
Novelty Night was a big popular
success, this years promises to excel
1t in every way. One big attraction
engaged is Castellucci's Neapolitans,
one of the finest singing band Or
chestras in existence. Their music
and novelties will prove q revelation.
Another special feature viii he The
Great Davis, Master American Ma
Eiclan and his company. Davis is
the leader OF leaders and his work Is
sensational and full of fun. It viii,
be his first appearance in combina-
ton with other talent Still another
pleasing feature will be Miss Edna
Rowland. splendid lyric soprano.
One Of the most novel, educational
and entertaining features of this
with Banner the famous explorer
and his marvellous katir Singing
Boys from The Willis of Africa.
Ballner has fascinating story to
tell and the boys are not only won
derful singers but present the most
unique entertainment on the Ameri-
can platform.
Something that is also different
than usual lyceum entertainments
will be the production of The Cot
ters Saturday Night" by the Scot
fish Musical Comedy Company which
is composed OF the leading Scotch
American singers. Robert Burns
masterpiece is beautifully staged,
f'rimful of quaint manners and rich
in Jest. song and story.
But to fifty celebrate their tenth
anniversary the managers have for
the closing feature secured one of the
worlds great singers-one of greater
renown than has probably ever APP
peared on any lyceum course in
America. Marie Sundelius, the
Second Jenny Lind" is one Of the
leading prima -donnas OF this sea-
sons Metropolitan Opera Company
and Augusta will be the only city in
Maine to hear the Swedish Night
ingale' this season.
The Journal congratulates the pub
lie on having an opportunity to en-
JOY these unusually high grade en-
tertainments.

Globe, Nov. "a 1918.
How eight such high grade uttrac-
tions can be offered to the public for
the sum of one dollar is a mystery to
many, but the local managers say
there is no secret and explain that it
is made possible by the cooperative
subscription season ticket plan and
by filling big City Hall TO it's capac-
lty at every entertainment.
They consider this seasons Offering
superior to any they have been able
to secure in former years and are
confident Of having the best pleased
audiences Of any since the course
was started ten years ago.
They are especially proud of their
opening number which is COM
bination for this engagement only of
two of the leading concert and en-
tertainment companies now before
the public. The Crawford Adams
Company alone is considered the
biggest hit" Iyceum has known in
many years. while the Corella-
Bonelli Company features two big
European artists whose engagement
in America is made possible only by
the war.
Perhaps the best news to last
years patrons is the announcement
for full evenings program of
Aronrpu'c fn b1,,, tea
land Gillian. Mr.. Gillian made A
great hit here last season when he
furnished only short part of one
evenings entertainment and his com
ing engagement will be the 115th re-
turn date (many for the fifth or sixth
time) since his last appearance in
Augusta. To secure his services it
was necessary to make application a
year in advance.
Another pleasing feature will be
the Metropolitan Quintette, in a
popular program. 1t is composed Of
five of Americas leading male voices
including John Daniels, New Eng
lands foremost tenor and Walter
Anderton whose voice is of the scope
and brilliance of the highest soprano
one of the rarest male voices in the
world Combined with this remark
able organization will be Edwin M
Whitney considered the finest reader
and impersonator lyceum has ever
known.
Augusta has been unusually fortu-
nate in being able to hear some Of the
finest lecturers in the country, but in
securing Lincoln Mcconnell for this
seasons course the management be-
lieve they have reached high water
mark. His lecture The Devil and
the Kaiser with apologies to the
DeviD is without question the great
