Below are just a few of the
good things that have been said
of Alton Packard, who is to a9-
pear at the Princess Theatre
next Thursday night, April 9th,
in the last number of our Lyceum
course. This entertainment is Of
such high class and the manage
ment of the Theatre has put the
price so low that every man,
woman and child in Okolona
should see it.
Alton Packard is one Of the
few, one of the elect, one of the
immortals of the platform. He
makes tens of thousands laugh
every year, he makes them
weep, he makes them think
themselves into nobler living,
he sings himself into the hearts
of the people with some of the
jolliest songs ever written he
writes them himself, he makes
pictures that cover the biggest
sheets of drawing paper ever
made he has them made espec-
tally for himself pictures tina t
slam the message into your
memory SO that you cannot for
get. And all the while he is
doing it, you are conscious Of
the fact that you are in the
presence of an artist who is
of his art, and back Of
the artist is a real man, who has |
a great mission in life and a |
great message for mankind. |
-Thos. Brooks Fletcher.
The word CartOonist is not |
quite big enough to attach to
Alton Packard. He is so much |
more than q cartoonist, and so
much more kprofound in his
method of touching the very
depth and heights of human life
by means of dramatic art, music
and pictures as to be worthy thel
title Of Master Artist. = We
will have a better world when
Packard gets through with it. |
= Beardstown. ILL.,. Star.
/ feel confident that Packard
was the great drawing card Of
our course. Our young people
are still talking about him.
Young people who have never
heard Packard have missed part
IF their required College Course.

BY MISS VIOLET TERWILLINGER
Noted Sculptor

Having worked whether or not
girl stays at it five years, would bet
ter fit her for companionship.
Working broadens a woman and
tends to make her less selfish.
The only argument I could think
of against a girls working five years
or more before marriage is that she
might become so welded to her ca.
reer that she wouldn't want to give
it up.
But, If she has found a real ca.
reer, there would be no reason for
giving il up.
The woman who actually accom-.
plishes can combine her career with
being a wife because she will not
have to give all of her time TO her
work.
l think that marriage is merely n
form of social life and I am sure
that if l gave the time TO husband
or married life which I now give to
social life l could have very happy
companionship.

l don't know just why Professor
Power should have set the period OF
work at five years, because limiting
it would seem to standardize respon'
sibility.
Certainly the girl who works, wheth'
er it is more than five years or less
than five years, knows economic con-
ditions from the outside as well as
from the inside. She knows what 1t
means to have responsibility. And she
rarely shrks.
Isn't that just about an ideal quail
ification for a wife?
| think If every one would accept
their share OF responsibility most
couples would jog along pretty hap
pily-there's just one danger in all Of
this: the capable business or profess
sional girl might be willing TO as
sumo too much of the burden.
on the whole. though, give me the
business or professional woman--they
seldom fall down on anything they
attempt.
