HIGH-CLASS ENTERTAINMENT.
Clare Vaughn Wales Company Booked
for January 26.
The Clare Vaughn Wales Company
will appear at the Armory in this city
on the evening of January 26, under the
auspices of the Cottage Grove Lyceum
Course, and will undoubtedly attract a
large audience.
The management
makes the following announcement:
“After the seventh' season of unpre
cedented success at the head of her own
company, Clare Vaughn Wales may be
safely said to be one of the established
leading lyceum attractions of the coun
try today. Equipped with a natural
talent, charm of manner, unusual ver
satility and magetic personality, Mrs.
Wales has long since demonstrated her
fitness to lead this aggregation of su
perior artists and has more than sus
tained the difficult standard set for
her. Perhaps the secret of her popu
larity lies in the fact that she has stud
ied the public and is wise enough to in
troduce into her programs only that
which people care for and enjoy. To
entertain and amuse and instruct, but
also to speak the word which shall up
lift and cheer and help, is her endeav
or. For Mrs. Wales and her excellent
company the season just ¿nded has
been one gigantic success. This com
pany enjoys the distinction of being one
of the very few of whom not one ad-
iverse criticism has been offered this
season so far as the management has
been - able to discover.“ .In addition to
the high-class program of readings and
music, Mrs. Wales has produced, as a
closing number, a one-act comedy, with
most flattering success. These comed
ies will form a strong feature of a de
lightful program the coming season,
and , will furnish just the element of
“something new” so much desired by
committees, and not to be furnished’by
any other company of its kind. The
high standard of excellence will be
maintained and patrons may be assured
of perfect satisfaction in all programs,
Whether with or without the comedy.”

The appearance of the Clare Vaughn Wales
Company at the Y. M. C. A. auditorium last even
ing marked one of the most successful Star Course
concerts of the present season. Although Mrs.
Wales is supported by an excellent company, the
chief interest in the program last evening centered
in her recitations. Mrs. Wales has a fine voice, a
splendid stage presence and dramatic ability.
