T CAPPY RICKS” VERNONIA EAGLE Streets Aiwa THE PLAY FOR CHAUTAUQUA Ul CHIROPRA Great American Comedy-Drama Told in Real American Stylo—“Cappy” of the “Frisco Water Front*' Moat Delightful Character of the Modern Stage—Coming Third Night. There Is more to real humor than the things which make us laugh uproariously, as Chautauquans will realize when they see the famous comedy drama “Cuppy Kicks,” presented by that splendid organization, the Ellas Day Players on the third night. The humor of "Gappy Ricks” Is genuine because each character In it Is reproduced from persons now living most of them In San Francisco where Peter B. Kyne, author of the stories which ran in the Haturday Evening Post, studied human nature and gathered material for his successful series of character sketches. He transplanted them onto the printed page, and Edward Ro e, the eminent playwright, has moved them from the story page to the center of Die stage. Oliver Morosco first produced the play In New York where It had a phe nomenal run of a whole year. (Wilcago claimed it for five'consecutive months, and it has since won friends by the hundreds of thousands on the circuits of the big theaters. Of course the irascible, blunt, "I’m always right” old sea dog "Cappy” Is the central figure, and Matt Peasley, the clean-cut, courageous young mate who beat "Cappy” at his own game, is his foil. "Cuppy's” pretty daughter; Skinner, the efficient office manager whom “Cappy” bulldozes; old Aunt Lucy, the only person tn captivity who Is not afraid of the old man; u ne'er-do-well rich man's son and the office stenographer are the characters selected from the stories by the playwright for the stage version. * GOVERNOR PIERCE COMING Governor Pierce will visit Vernon ia on June 28, and at two o’clock in the afternoon of the 27th he will de liver an address at the new church building. Everyone in the community will want to hear him. -■ nA. . 9 When you lose, say nothing.
