Buick Owners Everywhere
Buick owners everywhere recognize this blue and
white emblem of authorized sexVioe as further

in the continued and perfect operation of their Buicks.
Authorized service is a guarantee of skilled labor
from mechanics of long experience on Buick cars, and
that every new part is genuine, factory-made of the
same high quality as the original unit.
It is an assurance that the establishment is conducted
to serve Buick owners first, last, and always in the

The first of the six attractions
which make the lyceum course for
the winter, and which are presented
under the auspices of the H. lJ. Eh-
lers Post, American Legion, held the
boards Tuesday night, and- were
greeted by a fair-sized audience. If
the merits of the company is to be
judged by th4 applause that followed
each number, the Mary Adel Hays
Singers is all to the good.
The clever acting and singing, es-
pecially in their special program num-
ber, the second act of. the opera
“Martha” revived an interest in high-
class entertainment that had become
dormant because of operas not being
presented here. Old as this opera is, it
never fails to entertain when in clever
artists’ handling. Miss Jflays’ selec-
tions on the piano and her solo on the
flute merited the acclaim accorded.
The next attracton will 'Be the “S
S. Henry Company” in December.
