 Announcement Extraordinary Owing to the absence from the Club of several stellar artists who were to appear in the regular Ca beret performance scheduled for this day, Friday>February 13, 1920, it was deemed wise to postpone the Cabaret number on the Clubs regular pro gram until some future date. Rather than disappoint our many loyal friends the entertainment committee, Dr. Southworth, MT. Ed Kastner and our most popular young Lotharia, MT. Herndon Norris by an herculean effort equalled only by Hercules him self. have provided for your enter tainment the program part Of which has been presented. In addition the committee was fortunate in securing the services of the Ash Kan Sam Opera Company to appear here this evening. No expense was spared and at great cost this organization was able to reach Prescott. Car fare was advanced by the committee to the stars from Congress Junction, their board bill at the Ambassador Hotel of Skull Valley was also paid, in fact every assistance was offered these artists who have performed in every large city in the United States and before the sworn heads of Eupore. Ladies and gentlemen this company will present with your permission "Salome,' an opera in one act.

 In one act-the only reason it is confined to one act will be very ap- parent, the audience either leaves or breaks up the show.
 Scene-The Terrace of the Palace. This is the terrace, in the back ground is a Cistern in which John Baptiste is imprisoned The Moon gleaming in the sapphire of an Ori- ental Sky. The King enters, fol- lowed by John Baptist in chains (Weed Non Skids) the Guards. The Feast is over. Salome greatly thrilled as the result of dandy steak dinner comes tripping (and tripping is right into the presence of the King John Baptiste is first thrilled with Salome's beauty, she too is taken with John, but when she makes love to him he spurns her attentions. i She in anger demands his head, the King reluctantly grants her request. John is escorted from the presence of the King and his head Cor some kind of head perhaps vegetable in !! nature) is brought before Salome, | who does her famous wiggling dance in glee, she fits about about the Ter race, but King Herod comes to her i or too and tell the guards to dispatch her. And they all lived happily ever after. 1
