ADJUSTMENTS
Blanchard and Blanchard, Well
Known Chautauqua Entertainers,
at Pleasant Pond Pavilion Tonight

No announcement this season has
created the enthusiasm that has been
accorded the booking of this well
known team of entertainers. Mr..
and Mrs. Blanchard have had several
highly successful seasons under the
tents of various Chautauquas and
we are absolutely sure that a real
worthwhile treat is in store for all.
Another item of interest to the dane
ers is the acquisition of Mr.. Lougee,
a banjo player of unusual ability. In
securing Mr.. Lougee Mr.. Manson will
now direct an orchestra Of seven
capable musicians and those who
happened TO be- out last Tuesday
certainly appreciated the extra pep
that the banjo has added to this al
ready poppy orchestra. Each as
sembly at this popular pavilion is
marked by the return of some past
patron and with the attractions to
be offered from now on we feel more
sure than ever that Pleasant Pond
is the place this year. Because of
the heavy advertising that has been
given tonight's attraction about Bath,
Brunswick and Lisbon Falls a cap
able attendant has been secured to
direct the parking of the cars, no
charge for this service.-Adv.
