SWISS BELL RINGERS.

The famous Swiss Bell Ringers will
give their concert at the High School
Auditorium next Tuesday evening.
They come from Atlanta, where they
appeared on Friday giving an unusual
program of novelty musical instru-
ments. Wherever they go, they de-
light their audiences, as the press
comments from both Europe and
America attest. The Atlanta Journal
had this to say of their entertain
ment: Every one was well pleased
with the program, which was uplift-
ing, instructive, and entertaining"
Many new and novel musical in
struments were used, and throughout
the entire program the harp was used
for accompaniment, which is quite un-
usual"
The concert is given for the benefit
of the American Legion.

Listen Lester" John Corts musical
comedy success, which for a year kept
audiences at the Knickerbocker The
atre in New York a-gog to keep pace
with it, comes to the Columbus Opera
House, Thursday night. The book and
lyrics have a quality Of light-hearted-
ness that distinguishes them as sure
fire receipts for merriment, and the
music is tuneful, and what is more
distinctly original-which would Of
course be true of any play which lays
claim for being to the pens and
minds Of Harry L. Cort, George E.
Stoddard, and Harold Orlob.
Nothing has been spared in secur-
ng for this attraction the most
gorgeous costuming and settings that
could be procured, and the result is
colorful Kaleidoscope projection
against which, distinctly and surely,
the story stands forth--a story of real
dramatic value, centering around a
package of letters written by q
flighty Colonel to a wise ana canny
lady who decides to make the best
use of them she can, and drawing
along with them love affairs, comedy
situations, clever dialogue, and whis-
tleable, hummable music.
