TEN REASONS WHY "THAT PRINTER OF I'DKLLS" IS THE UEST PLAY OF THE SEASON (1) The characters are not mere puppets but real living, breathing men and women. (2) It is a real dramatic performance and entertain ment. (3) It exemplifies eyplcal American life scenes. (4) There is not a dull moment nor any long waits. (5) It solves the tramp ques tion. (6) It is artistically and pow erfully acted. (7) It enthuses. In spires, and entertains its audiences. (8) The story was written by HAR OLD BELL WRIGHT, the best Am erican author. (9) It included com edy without silliness, pathos without gust, and heroism without boasting! (10) It is a play that everyone will be talking about and you owe it to yourself to know what it is about. This modern dramatic masterpiece will be presented at the Pbelan Op era House, January 19, by Mr. SAN FORD DODGE and his fine company of artists, one night only. Seats on sale at Holsten's.
