uie one.
The perennial "Ole Olson" will asrain
amuse and delight lovers of wholesome
comedy and fun at the opera house Fri
day night, December 20. Mr. Ben Hen
dricks, the comedian whose name is so
clojely identified with the success of
tins play will be seen again in the title
roll, a part that he has made peculiarly
his own. In fact Mr. Hendricks enjoys
a unique distinction in stage work in
that he is absolutely without, a rival in
his line. He has been a close student
of Swedish peculiarities and possesses a
quick discernment and a happy facility
in acquiring and presenting the salient
characteristics of the Swedish tvne.
Added to this he is an accomplished ac
tor, thoroughly schooled in thett chninue
of the staije and earnest in hia work.
'Ole Olson" is offered on the honest
basis of furnishing an eveuimr of whole
some fun and lau'hter. It has enouirh
it seiions interest to carry attention but
presents no "problem" of doubtful mor
als or questionable suggestion. It lays
no claim to spectacular effect, but pre
sents a Bi"iple story of honest purpose
and integrity in a homely, heart-appealing
manner that commands the respect
of the great mass of right-minded peo
ple. In tins way it deserves and re-
ci-ives appreciation An exce lent com

Portland juniors. The admission to
both games will be oniy 25 cents.
Mr. Hendricks is universally recog
nized as tho best exponent of Swedish
character on the American stago, a fact
that is amply proven by the attempts of
every manager of Swedish plays to se
cure his services, lie rightfully con
siders however that in "Ole Olson" thia
particular nationality is most truthfully
drawn and presented and that it gives
t io best opportunity of presenting the
wholesome, honest and incorruptible
Swedish type as he really exists. Sev
eral changes have been made in the
dramatic story and these have tended to
a'renirtheii the plav. A number of
special features add to its eniovable
qualities too notably the original Swed
ish Ladies Quartette.
The corning of Bon Hendricks and
his "Ole Olson" company to the opera
house, Friday night, December 20., will
introduce old friends to local theatre
goers and soma one has said that old
triends, like old wine and old books, are
the best. At any rate Ole and Ben
Hendricks have never failed to please
and entertain their friends in the past and
will not fail this time. Tne plav hn
