day, 12 o'clock, noon, fs the time set
for the sale to begin and no one per
son is permitted to reserve more than
ten seats at one time. Owing to the
limited capacity of the theatre this
was found necessary. By this arrange

also shut out all chance for ticket
scalping. Without doubt there will be
the longest line in front of the box

been known in La Grande. Requests
from out of town Elks are coming in
for seats already. Those in line will
be given preference over telephone or
mail orders. Theso will be taken care
of after the first rush is over.
