Upon launching “Fatty Felix,!’ the laughing comedy drama with music, this season, Henry W. Link, the manager, determined to try a new and decided novelty in the way of a highpriced show at popular prices. The result has been successful beyond all expectations. “Fatty Felix" has been playing to bigger business throughout the country than it did in past seasons when it was charging high prices. “Fatty Felix” is the only show of its kind playing at popular prices. The attraction will be at the Bosse opera house Wednesday, November 29th, so don’t miss seeting Fatty and enjoy a | hearty laugh. From all reports Mr. Bosse of our theater has been fortunate in securing contracts for Henry W. Link’s "Fatty Felix” company for next Wednesday night and the entire amusement public of Decatur will be thankful for the opportunity of seeing such a high-class comedy drama. Wholly different from the usual attractions. “Fatty Felix” combines farce comedy, comedy drama and vaudeville, blended into a three-act play with a plot that holds the audience from start to finish. The production is replete with vaudeville and musical numbers of the latest creation, giving the members of the company full scope to show their ability. There is something new and novel introduced every minute, either in the way of wonderful success wherever presented and will indeed be a treat to local theatergoers. The opportunit}' should not be missed, especially as the prices are within the reach of everybody’s pock-et-book, and the show is guaranteed to please the majority or money back after Mkst act.
