The next number ot the De-
port Lyceum Course will be held
at the High School Auditorium
on Tuesday evening, Jan. 26.
The entertainment will begin
promptly at 7:30 p. ro.
The talent is six beautiful
young ladies. The program
opens with the girls entering in
an informal way, chattering and
laughing in the free and light-
hearted style of our home girls;
then follows a miscellaneous pro-
gram of orchestral and vocal
numbers by all the girls, and
vocal, violin and saxaphone solos;
then the idea of impersonating
the distinct style ages of the col-
onies and the U. S. suggests It-
self. They rummage among the
antiques and curiosities in the
attic and finally appear costuip-
ed as the following: Indian
maiden; Puritan girl; colonial
lass; First Daughter of the Rev-
olution, in the quaint old hoop
skirt; the period following the
Civil War, in the basque" style
dress and the modern girl.
Their program from this time
on in song, story and musical
instruments, tell of the accom-
plishments of each separate per
iod.
They close with a beautiful
sketch, which represents the
making of the first American
Hag by Betsy Ross and her com
patiiots. The closing number
of the evening is ‘'The American
Constitution,” a selection writ-
ten on that great national instru
ment by Mr. Chas. F. Horner.
It makes the hearts of all patri-
otic Americans thrill in absolute-
ly normal times, but its rendi-
tion this year by those Sweet,
pure girls, the flower of our
country’s young womanhood,
when our grand Republic is
marching steadfastly on in har-
monious peace; protected by this
great document of ‘‘Our Nation’s
Fathers,” and Old Glory, while
the other (so called) civilized na-
tions of the earth are tearing
each others hearts out, stirs the
i emotions to a depth seldom ex-
| perienced by any of us in our
'quiet pursuits of our every day
affairs.
The Lyceum Committee re-
I ports that the next two num-
I bers of the course will cost *140
and there is now no funds in the
treasury with which to. pay
for them. At a meeting of the
Commercial Club held Tuesday,
it was decided to reduce the
price of the tickets. The ad-
mission price has been: Adults
50c; Children 25c. The reduced
prices are: Adult tickets for
both of the last two numbers,
75c each, two or more in one
family, 6254c each. Childrens
ticket, 40c each; two or more in
GSMB or THOUGHT.

cial Club held Tuesday afternoon,

ed for the ensuing year:

President, Marshall Jones; Sec-
retary, Sam C. Holloway; Treas
nrer, O. E. Hayes; Directors,

The Club will meet at 4 o’clock
Friday afternoon of each week,
A place of meeting will probably
be announced in next week’s
Times. The Clnb desires to re-
tain all old metnbers and secure
as many new ones as possible.
Be systematic sod methodical
to your advertising. Do you
push your collections and bay
goods with thought and care)*
Do you write your advertising
any old time and in e rush? Do
you think of this ad. writing as
something of little importance
and unpleasant task. Change
your attitude by changing your
view-point. Change your view
point by learning how to write
advertising. Start to learn how
by putting In the next issue of
the paper an advertisement that
is carefully prepared and to
which you have given at least
four hours of thought and at
tention. Do npt put this off, but
start to-day. Begiu to build bp
a larger business and better-
service store.
If your ads. do not bring re-
sults, ask yourself why. Do a
little thinking about this.’ As
one great advertiser says:
“There’s a Reason”. If*—you
think advertising doesn’t pay,
take two or three articles and
push them with good, steady
advertising and attractive prices,
then watch results. Do not ex-
pect to see results from five or
six ads. but wait until you have
been pushing for several weeks
or months.
To The Public
Hotel Under New Management
In view of the tact that I have
been appointed postmaster, a
statement from me concerning
my hardware and furniture
business will not be'out of place.
The postal regulations require
that I devote my time to the
office, but my store will be run
as usual with Mack Grant
manager.
Thanking my friends for past
favors, I am,
Respectfully,
S. H. Bell.

It is said that the next num-
ber is the best of the course, it
carrying six entertainers. You
can help the Lyceum Committee
to make up this deficit and as-
sure another course next year
by purchasing these reduced
price tickets and soliciting
your friends to do the same.
The Commercial Hotel has
changed hands'. B. F. Miller, a
hotel man of fifteen years ex
perience has taken charge, and
spent the past week in cleaning
up and arranging thing to his
satisfaction.
Mr. Miller called at The Times
office Wednesday and placed an
order for stationery. He stated
that with the co-operation of' the
business men, he expected to
build up a good hotel business
and keep many of the traveling
men in Deport that have been
going elsewhere.
Experience is a great asset in
the hotel business and Mr. Mil-
ler has that. Wc trust that be
will succeed.
