On Friday evening next, the Stock Company will produce George Ade’s play, “Father and the Boys.” Mr. Ade has contributed to the happb ness of friends all over the world by his wonderful writings and his neighbors Wave always taken advantage of every opportunity to hear or see any of the stories or blays written by this justly celebrated author.’ Through’ his courtesy this company has obtained the right to produce ‘Father and the Boys.” The management is doing everything in their power to make this the theatrical treat of the season and an occasion long to be remembered. The play requires a cast of fourteen people and each act will be staged with every attention to detail 'throughout the four acts, which will require four ’complete sets of scenery and all necessary properties to be carried.

Crane starred in the part of Father for four years and the play enjoyed a phenomonal run in New York and Chicago under the management of Chas. Froham. Make your arrangements now. Order your favorite seats and give yourself a treat.
