LAURANT AGAIN

Eugene Laurant, the idol of the kids
and one of the most popular of all en-
tertainers in America today is COM
ing to Chautauqua.
Do you remember the clock that
thinks?
Do you remember that remarkable
ring trick and the feeling you had
when Gene Laurant rammed your
ring down the throat of the big horse
pistol?
Laurant has lot of new tricks on
which he has spent years Of work.
He is always working like a beaver.
When you see him this time you will
meet some of your old friends, but
there will be a lot of new ones that
you have never seen before.
Laurant's show is always a thing of
beauty. There is never a tiresome
moment
The stage will be full of kids and
not one OF them will be embarrassed
or afraid. Gene Laurant has more
young friends over the country than
any entertainer in the business.
This show is worth twice the price
of admission just to see the young
sters have a good time, but it isn't
for the youngsters only. There are
tricks there that will puzzle you and
one or two psychological problems
that have never yet been solved by
anybody but Laurant.
