Sank Centre Lyceum course to be put
on under the direction of the Board
of Education will be given at the Jun
ior High School Auditorium Wednes-
day evening Oct. IL.
The Smlth-Liemerick Duo, one of
the daintiest numbers on the entire
series will be the program. Mr..
Smith is a baritone-dramatist and
Miss Liemerick is a soprano, reader
and pianist. The program consists
of music readings and sketches.
The Lyceum course put on by the
Senior class last year was financial
failure for several causes. The
Board of Education believing that
Sank Centre could not afford to dis
pense with the educational and in
spirational form of entertainme is
furnished by a series Of Lyceum
course numbers made contract with
the Midland Lyceum Bureau of Des
Moines, Iowa, for this years course
which will consist of five numbers.
The 1929 course is the most ex-
pensive one ever br usht to Sank
Centre by the Board of Education.
The public must cooperate with them
if these series of entertainments are
to break even financially. If they do
not it probably means the end OF
Lyceum courses for Sank Centre. Ov-
er 400 adult season tickets must be
sold.
The other numbers of the series
are the Clay-Ballew CoEcer: Parties.
Mr.. Ballew has made special study
of the negro spiritual and its folk
lore. His interpretations OF the
[egro dialect in his songs are said to
e absolutely correct He possesses
an unusual baritone voice and as he
is an actor of many yeArs experience
his portion of the program will be
we'll worth while. He is very ably
supported by Marie Viol, violiniste,
and Ellen Jane McCurley, pianiste.
Evelyn Dargelt, Chatauqua and
Lytnum entertainer illustrates her
readings with Tightening sketches.
With crayons of different colors she
produces landscapes which are as
humorous and as funny as comic Sec
lions of the Sunday papers.
In former years the course has
bern up I';,vN with lecturers, bue tn.
1929 series of entertainments has
only one lecturer booked, Robert b.
Tolbert, whose subject is ''The Spirit
of a Nation" A new lecture inspired
