Y. M. C. A. Lyceum Course

Tbe lyoenru course of the Y. Al. G. I A. has come to be a regular thing. This year the sooiety expects to give its patrons a better course tban ever before and at the same price, $1 for flve entertainnients, surely cheap enoagh to permit everyone to have at least this inuch recreatioo. Becanse oí the large number heretofore in attendanoe the entertainments will be held this year in the Athens Theater. Reserved seats for the entire oourse will be sold for 25 cents additional. The flrst entertainment will be given Oot. 14 by the Kellog Bird Caruival Coucert Corupany, five people. This is the finest and most uniquething in any lyceum course that will appear this season and cost the yoong men no rneau amonnt to secure. It will consist of bird warbling, vooal solos, duets, readings, violin solos and illuminated delsarte and calisthenics. The second entertainment is given by the John Thomas' Co. Nov. 16. Mr. Thomas bas appeared all through the east and as a humorist and elooutionist has no superior. He brings with hiru Mr. Albet Hopkins, the talented pianist. The two are sure to leave one night's unalloyed pleasnre with an Ann Arbor audienoe. Deo. 28, Mr. Edward H. Frye, the monologist, appears as Rip Van Winkle and other oharacters in the Legend of the Catskills. Mr. Frye gives Josepb Jefferson's faruous version of the play and is so highly reoommended by the Boston Post and other critios that the assooiation feels especially fortúnate in adding this to its list of attractions. Jan. 11, 1898, the Ransom Entertainers appear. This company has the, most startling and at the same time tbe most reflned prestidigitateur now before the public. He will be assisted by a soprano soloist, reader, whistler and pianist. Mr. Ransom's feats of magie are mystifying in the extreme. On Maren 21 the Ariel Ladies' Sextette, an organization which has filled more return engagements than any other oompany existing, will close the series. Tbe ladies are sisters and have Btndied under the best European ruasteis. Each one is an artist. Their suocess bas been little short of phenomenal and they are very justly seleoted as the climax of this wonderfully good and wonderfully oheap course. You will soon have the opportunity of pnrehasing tickets from any of several young men or at the association rooms. Seats will be reserved, if desired, in the order in which tickets are sold.
