A ' , . 7 - i r. -7 ' : 7 i : J rrj , i PIE READ, who comes to Heppner on Saturday evening, February 3, has well been called "The Charles Dickens of America." He was one of the first American novelists to write about the commonplace life of every-day folks, whose struggles,, with their comedy and tragedy, he has drawn with a master hand. No other present day writer is so widely enjoyed as Mr. Read. Since he established the world-famous 'Arkansas Travel ler" in 1883, his name has been a household word. Thousands have read with delight "A Kentucky Colonel." Many more have made the acquaintance of "A Tennessee Judge" and thus become familiar with the good folks of Mr. Read's native state. In his entertainment, Mr. Read presents a delightful evening of stories from his own works, and these are told in his own quaint and happy way. Aie entertainments, while designed to entertain, and while furnishing plenty of good, wholesome humor, are more than mere entertainment. Everybody young and old enjoys an evening with "Opie" as he is affectionately called by his friends, and everybody has "something left over" to remember and to think about after the entertainment.
