THE APOLLO TRIO
V NEXT LYCEUM NUMBER.
> '
v. . ' . \
The Piedmont Lyceum Bureku has
: this to say p| the lyceum attraction
- to appear here on January 19th.:
"In presenting; the Apollo Trio to
" the public we are offering a high5
grade Concert Company who present
>' a ?varied program of Songs, Stories,
r Costumed Readings and Impersona?
tions, Violin .and Riano.
"Each member of ^the Apollo Trio
1 is an artist who has given years of
J study and preparation for the work
e which they do. They love the work
1 and maintain Piedmont Lyceum in
Standard^ both on and off the platform
. _
j Their nVssion is to please and satisfy
and they^ always succeed in accomplishing
this object, ofttimes
j where others would fail. "? Good
humor, versatility and wisdom in the
arrangement of their program, to
y gether with most attractive persona
allies, make them universal favorites
among Piedmont patrons."
This concert completes the lyeeum
course for this season. *
On the part of some of the guarantors
for this year there has, been
considerable apprehension 'about securing
a course next season. They
seem to feel that lyceum isn't getting
the support here it should, a^d that it
cannot longer last on that given it.
^ So if this community wants lyceum
another season there should be a full
house for this coming attraction.
s The usual prices will obtain. The
lt concert is saiid to be splendid, and
x well rendered.
"It is easy
e?
Enough to be pleasant
e When life goes long like a song,
But the man >vorth while.
Is- tKe one with a smile.
When* everything* goes dead
