SUCCESS OF LIONS ' CONCERT ASSURED. There is a story to (Inc effect that years ago a barnstorming company played "East Lynne" in a tent pitched for „the 'occasion. The actors per- formed terribly and very terribly did the rustic audience receive the at- tempt. As the poorly fed, ravenous and cadaverous leading man was walking off the wobbly stage, a well. aimed turnip smote him amidship. Recovering quicklyfrom the shock, he picked the turnip up and began to chew it vigorously, muttering, "Hum- iliating- but -deucedly wholesume." It may be a far cry back to the time when 'East Lynne" was ttngraciously received, nevertheless an audience is the same now as it was then, and be it a play or a concert persons go to see, they want the performers to be artists of merit. In bringing "The Favorite Four" of London, assisted by Archie Mc- Culloch, the versatile entertainer, to Seaforth, the Lions Club promise that everybody vslio sees and hears them will -be delighted, not disap- pointed. The Favorite Four are a talented quartet of London artists, on whom the press lavishes unstinted Praise; and to add to their number the name of Archie McCulloch, assures the public that the Lions 'Club are bringing to town on November 29th, an aggregation of artists who will previde the maximum of entertain- ment for their audience. It has been said that no man is happy until he stops thirtIcing of him- sele. Now, if you want to be real happy for a couple of hours, come to Cardno's Hall on the evening of November 29th. You will stop think- ing about yourself, and at the same time you will help augment the funds being raised by the Lions Club for their Christmas Cheer gifts.
