.DREAMLAND'S NEW z
PIECE BAND BEST IN CITY

Since Packy Mcfarland and Jimmie
Williams have acquired partnership
and active management of the
Dreamland Cafe, they have begun
vigorously to improve the service and
quality of entertainment to be found
there.
Crowds are increasing in size each
night and Dreamland is rapidly re-
gaining it's place as the pinnacle OF
places of entertainment.
The latest improvement to be
made is the complete reorganization
of the band. Dreamland's band as
it now stands, cannot be excelled by
any in the city, 1t is said. 1t is now
composed of twelve pieces, whereas
it formerly contained only eight.
Reservations are coming in fast
for the Thanksgiving dinner at the
matinee on Thanksgiving afternoon.
This matinee is to be of the nature of
a grand opening. Many people are
planning to have dinner at the
Dreamland instead of at home. The
popularity of the Dreamland Cafe as
place to eat is rapidly growing as
1t is becoming known that Louis Ar
rington is in charge OF the kitchen.

MUSICAL TESTs-PART II

Hearing good music is the best,
surest and quickest way to develop
correct musical taste-not merely
hearing it now and then-but hear
ing it often and in abundance. How
may this be done since the admission
price to many artists concerts makes
attendance at them impossible for
many? Through the medium of the
victrola, grafonola, etc. the worlds
greatest artists may be heard with
very little expense. Wonderful rec
ords made by the worlds best mu-
sicians in solo and in groups, by
singers and players, choruses, or
chestras and bands may be bought at
a nominal cost and may be used
many times to give pleasure and ben
eft to hundreds of people. In many
of the large music stores, at stated
times, concerts with the use of the
above mentioned machines, are given
at which the public is welcomed and
no fee charged. For a very small
sum one may attend the splendid
concerts given by the Symphony Or
chestra, at which a talented soloist
of some instrument is always pre-
sented. Even grand opera is put
within the reach of those whose fl
nances are very limited and the pop
ular priced Saturday evening per-
formances prove boon to thou
sands. In cities where such oppor-
tunities are offered, there is little
or no excuse for lack of proper de-
velopment of the musical taste.
On December 5th and 9th at The
Aryan Grotto Temple, Floto's opera,
Martha" will be given by the South
Side Opera Company. Mr.. James
Allen Mundy, pioneer in this line of
musical endeavor in this part of the
country, has labored hard to have
the opera properly presented and his
efforts have received a warm re-
spouse from the singers under his
care. 1t is believed that the opera
will be an artistic success and open
to the minds of the public our posi-
bilities in this direction.
On Thursday evening. November
oath, at 8 o'clock, The Metropolitan
Community Center Choir, under the
direction of Mr.. ]. Wesley Jones, will
give a concert in Harvey, Illinois,
under the auspices of The Second
Baptist Church. The church has Sc
cured the use of the Harvey High
School building in which to give the
concert. Miss Elnora James will be
soprano soloist and Miss Magnolia
Lewis, reader. Among other num-
bers the choir will sing Rossinis
inflammation" and Handels Hal
lelujah Chorus"
Henry Ethridge, tenor, of Chicago,
will appear in recital in Bowling
Green, Kentucky, on November Gath,
under the auspices of The Progress
sive Choral Society of that city.

COVER THE HILLS packs them.
The famous Dunbar Players present
ed on Monday night the famous dra-
matte play entitled cover The Hip
to large house. Elizabeth Williams
triumphed in the role of Mother and
drew tears from the eyes of many
who witnessed the dramatic version
of this great play.
Andrew Bishop and Lawrence
Criner as the sons were excellent in
character and Charles More as the
country Loan Shark was excellent
in portrayal.
Isabelle Jackson and Arthur Ray
furnished the comedy moments and
kept the audience in spells of hilar-
ity.
Mr.. Allen as Sheriff was good, as
was Lionel Monagas. In fact, the en-
tire cast was perfect on their Mon
day night opening. The Show was
staged by Frank Armstrong, Direct
or CT renown.
The story, a very pathetic one
deals with everyday life where two
sons love their mother. One be-

the old homestead to a loan shark
and the other becomes accused of
crime which he did not commit and
is forced to abandon the home. The
mortgage falls due on the home and
the mother is put out into the street.
The accused strikes gold in the West
and returns home in time to redeem
the mortgage. This is surely won
derful theme and will be appreciated
by all who see and hear it.
Miss Susie Sutton as the dissatis-
fled wife has no equal today when it
comes to character work. She was
more than perfect in her role.
Miss Cleo Desmond as usual was
fine and good to look at.

will present George Arliss' great
