Entertainments will| be given afternoon and evening 2. each day, and attention is called to the fact tnat the purchase of a season ticket materially reduces the cost of attending the entire series. Lectures by leading platform speakers of the country, music by vocal and instru- mental entertainers of nete, and the staging of a great American drama, “The Melting Pot,’’ make up one of the strongest programs ever offered by this bureau. Chas. F. Horner, who established the Chautauqua cir- ouits twelve years ago, unhesitatingly states that the program numbers are by far the best the bureau has been able to obtain in this period of time. People who come from communi-} ties where Chautauqua programs ar- teatured under the big canvas tops will also appreciate the fact that in Casper they can enjoy the enterta‘n ment from a comfortable seat in + modern, well-ventilated theater. The entertainments will be given at the Iris and instead of suffering the agonies of a hastily improvis:' bench seat, as provided in many of the larger towns of the West, local people will enjoy the same accomoda tions that go with the best theatrical. No reservations wili be made for the programs of the two opening dates but for the last three days scats can | vork +e reserved at the | <x office Lee A.
