Ferry lyceum course for the winter
OF 1920 will be given at the X. p.
hall the evening of November % and
a must interesting and instructive en-
tertainment will be provided by Prof
Burnell r. Ford and his assistants.
The feature of this entertainment
will be demonstrations of electrical
wonders and many electrical expert
ments. Prof. Fords entertainment is
one OF the best offered on the Ellison
White Lyceum course and was selected
upon the recommendation of the trav-
cling representative of the Ellison
White system.
Another attraction of the lyceum
course of this season is the musical
entertainment by the Morrison Girls
Company. There are several real ar
lists in this company who play various
musical instruments and various mem
bers give readings and playlets that
have been great hits in other towns
Everyone has heard of Walter Ev-
ans, one of the most noted lecturers OF
the United States and he is coming to
Boomers Ferry under the auspices OF
the lyceum course on March 80. This
man is a forceful speaker and while
he is telling wholesome truths and is
driving them home he also manages
to be entertaining. His lecture alone
is said to be worth the price of a seas
on lyceum course ticket.
Speaking about prices-represent
tive members of the Bonners Ferry Ly
ceum association met Friday night ant
after considerable discussion decided
fhaf tho r,rfoa Of 70 tf0lrafc fn

last year, $1.35, including the war tax
The price of students season ticket
will be only 55 cents including tn
war tax. Single admissions for adult
will be rs cents and for students will
be 80 cents, these prices also including
the war tax
This year the attractions bein
brought to Bonners Ferry by the ly
ceum association are costing a grea
deal more than they have any othe
year. And it is believed that thes
attractions will be so well appreciate
that everyone will buy season ticket
,, and help to make the lyceum cours
a success. Last year the associatio
went in the hole" on its series of Ell
tertainments and many of the men
bers thought this year that an attemI
to bring highclass entertainments I
Bcnners Ferry had better be droppe
IT was finally decided to give the pee
pie of this vicinity another series {
entertainments and if this year IL
course was not accorded financial SUI
port the proposition would be droppe
1t is therefore up to the people
{ this vicinity whether, after this seaso
f there shall be further lyceum ente
n tainments. These entertainments a
: offered at very low prices-$1.35 +,
l. the season ticket for adults and on
S So cents for students. If the cour
g is to be self-sustaining at least 2
= adult season tickets must be sold al
u 100 student tickets. No one makes al
n money from the lyceum course. II
: business men and citizens who qua
d antee it will have to make up any de
J. cit out of their pockets. There a

Ie The same system of selling ticke

s season. Students of the Boomers FL
r. ~ schools will make a canvass of
