MVESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1916 KKK KK KKK KKK KKK ABOUT THE CITY. * x o Thomas Brooks Fletcher in lyceum lecture makes dram- atic appeal to young men and women to prepare body, character and mind for the battle of living. * ok kkk Kk ok kk kk * ok Kk Kk ok ok ok ok ok k KKEKKKKKKKKK KKK KK A “little giant” with keen black/| eyes, with a profusion of jet-black hair, with a face of Edwin Booth and with a powerful and magnetic voice held his audience, as no other orator has been able to do in this city, last evening in the third num- ber of the lyceum course under the auspices of the Woman’s Study club. The “little giant” was Thomas Brooks Fletcher. Mr. Fletcher took as his subject for his lecture last evening “The Tragedies of the Unprepared.” The lecture was an intensely dramatic appeal to young men and to young women to prepare the body, the character and the mind for the bat- tle of living. His theories at times were start- ling yet always to the point, clear and logical. His talk awakened in his hearers their slumbering moral convictions and inspired a feeling of justice and righteousness. Mr. Fletcher appeared sincere and was filled to the brim with physical and mentdl energy. His personality was magnetic. He was.a master of every phase of dramatic art. A graceful Delsartean one moment, a thundering hurling giant the next. His keen humor brightened his talk from time to time. His straight from the shoulder style of dealing with modern conditions captured the ad- miration of his hearers. This was the second given in this city by Mr. Fletcher. Last year at the lyceum course he spoke on “The 'Martyrdom of Fools.” His hearers at that lecture were so much impressed with his ability that last evening the M. E. church audi- torium was crowded with people who desired to hear this great orator. Mr. Fletcher has another lecture. 4 He entitles it ‘“The Modern Judas.” ‘ It is hoped that some arrangement can be made so that Mr. Fletcher can return to this city next year and de- liver that lecture. - 4 Miss Alva Peterson of Shevlin is ! - spending a few days visiting with i friends here. | / Mrs. C.

I was treated by a physician for about three months. He could not help me so finally he preseribed Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. I started taking same and before I had finished taking the first bottle I began to eat and sleep better than I had in a long time. I continued to take same until I was entirely cured and took on consid- erable weight.’ I am now back working at my trade again and never felt better in my life. T appreciate what>Swamp- Root has done for me and will rec- ommend it to anyone who suffers with their kidneys. When physicians fail to give relief and then preseribe Swamp-Root, they sure know of its merits. I am, Very truly yours, S. A. HALE, Henrietta, N. Y. State of New York ) )ss County of Monroe ) S. A.
