Tonight will be the last chance to hear the famous Crescent City Com- edy Four, the male quartet at the Brinkman Family Theater which has made so big a hit with Bemidji’s theatergoers, and those who have seen and heard them are very desirous of going again. They are not only scream-provbking comed- ians, but they sing in a very able manner songs that are catchy and tuneful. There have been big crowds at the Brinkman all week, and the attractigns are such as to thoroughly please all. The Brothers DeVan, with their two bright dogs, give an act that is exceptionally clever; and the dogs display almost human intelligence in their part of the stunt. The back somersault which the smaller dog gives is a rare treat. The motion pictures are better than ever, and are exceedingly dramatic. The patrons of the Brinkman Family theater are this week given a 50c show for 25¢; and the crowds show their appreciation. Y ou should be on hand early for the last appearance of the male quartet tonight. Bemidji Bowlers Defeated.
