The YELLOW FRONT Quits
CliniilniKiim Opens Thursday
Beginning next Thursday afternoon
the people of North Platte and tribu
tary country wll have a seven-day
feast of Intellectual up-:trt and en
tertainment, for on that day, and con
tinuing for that length or time, the
Chautauqua will open. The talent this
year Is particularly strong, both as
to the lecturers and the muslcnl feat
ures, and tho Interest already tnkon Is
further Increased by the announce
ment of tlie coming of William J.
Urynn next Sunday evening. The
addition of Mr. Uryan on tho program
was but lately made, nnd for his lec
ture no additional fee Is churgod the
holders of season tickets, but for
those who do not have season tickets
a charge of fifty cents will bo made for
adults and twenty-live cents for chil
dren. Mr. Uryan will no doubt provo a
drawing card. Ills subject Is one In
which the people of the United States
are vitally Interested In today, and
that It will be well handled by this
great orator, there is no doubt.
Mr. Uryan, however, isV'Ut of
sevornl strong men who are on the
program, Senntor Gore and Opio Head
will also be here, and in the muiical
line we are to have the great Thaviu
band, an organization that has few
peers.
With three sessions next Sunday
and two sessions each of the other
six days, tho investment of $2.50 in a
season ticket, good for the seven days.
Is certainly one that almost every per
son can afford to make. It is almost
as cheap as picture shows and will
prove many times more beneficial.
