I Lycsum Ticket Holders Admitted Minstrel Sparkles With Fun; A good ticket sale, and the number cf lyceum season tickets out, insure a food crowd for the presentation of the Y. M. C. A. minstrels tonight at the . high school auditorium. Every pai t is letter perfect and the sinning goes with a fine zip all the way. The jokes are fresh and clean, the olio and side issues, are first-class and all in all the program is one of merit. The curtain rises at 8:15 this even ing.. From that moment until the finale chorus, there is going to be something to entertain every minute of the show. Holders of lyceum num ber tickets should remember that they can gain admittance with them. The cash admittance for those who don't hold tickets is very reasonable and the Y. M. C.
