MANAGER SHLAES AO DRESSES LOVERS OF FINE MUSICAL COMEDY It seems that for several days there has been reports circulated that the attraction, "September Morn," which is to appear at the Parmele theater on Wednesday, January 13th, is not of a nature that would allow ladies and children to attend. This statement is absolutely without fact or foundation, as there has been no musical comedy in recent years that has scored such a success as this one, and its features are absolutely clean and refined in every way, as is shown by its long and continued runs in the large cities where social service boards have ap proved it. Persons who circulate such reports should understand what they are talking about before they start in to criticise a high-class attraction, such as "September Morn,' and with out first seeing the show. I have per sonally witnessed the performance of this show and assure the public there is nothing in the action or lyrics of the play that need offend the most exacting theater-goer. The attraction has been secured under a heavy guar antee and is one of the leading metro politan successes and its appearance here will be a rare treat for the theater-goers, who can attend with a perfect assurance of hearing nothing that might offend them. -R. M. Shlaes, Manager Parmele Theater. J. W. GAMBLE. FOR MERLY DF-THIS CITY, RELATES HIS DREAM Sell your property by an ad in The ournaL J. W. Gamble of Omaha, who has developed into one of the leading boosters for Missouri river navigation in the west, has gotten the fever so strong that even in his hours of slumber he is plying the river in his dreams, and the following story is taken from the Omaha News, which has caused a hearty laugh among the friends of the gentleman in the me tropolis: J. W. Gamble, vice president of the Omaha Manufacturers' association, and Commissioner Manley of the Commercial club were Omaha rep resentatives at the National River and Harbors congress in Washington a few weeks ago. Mr. Gamble got so enthusiastic that he had the following vision: "Tom Coleman, chairman of the trade extension committee, 'Bob' Man ley and I were sounding the Missouri to find a three and one-half-foot chan nel. Coleman was at the wheel and Manley and I were taking" the sound ings. We were going down stream in a launch. "The work progressed smoothly until Coleman started the launch with a jerk and I fell out of the boat. The fall awakened me and I found myself lying in the aisle of the Pullman, blocking the way of a fat lady, who wanted to pass through the car." to Tin: ii vw riKiiiv.
