Charlie Chaplin Coming.

Charlie Chaplin will be the attrac-
ton at the Opera House Friday, June
27, when he appears in his latest mil
lion dollar comedy, "Sunnyside." Ev-
erybody is anticipating the coming
with great deal of pleasure, as they
are laughing yet over his last one,
Shoulder Arms" which was run

There are a number of side-split-

posters are to be relied upon, and a
genuine treat is in store for all who
are fortunate enough to get seat.
