The Big Day at FOUNTAIN PARK ASSEMBLY Tomorrow, Friday, Aug. 16 Lieut. Pat O’Brien 8 P. M. The war is the one great things of the hour, and we have the one greatest war speaker, Lieut. Pat O’Brien. We pay him more than we have ever paid -anyone else, over S4OO, but scarcely anyone wou-ld want to go through what he went through if they could make millions providing they came through alive. He did some perilous air fighting, fell 8,000 feet, and landed -behind the German lines, experienced the uncivil treatment that the Hun enjoys giving Ms prisoners. Feeling that death was preferable to life in a Genman prison camp, he jumped -out of the window of a moving train going at the rate of 35 miles an hour when he was being transferred from one camp to another, spent seventy-two anxious days and nights going through .Germany, Luxemberg and Belgium, with his life at every minute hanging by a thread. Weak from wounds from which he had not fully recovered, iivihg upon vegetables •which he might dig up at night, swimming stream after stream, and at last making his marvelous escape through the electrically-charged fence wires which the Germans had boasted could not be passed by any man, he arrived in England and was summoned before King George, who gave him one of the longest interviews ever accorded to anyone. Practically in every place he has spoken, even at high prices, many people have been turned away, unable to get in the building. At Morgantown, W. Va., he drew snore than Roosevelt, although the latter spoke free, and the admission for O’Brien waS 75c. At Washington, D. C„ the admission wa* as high as $2, and boxes at $25. People were turned a-way unable to get in, and he was re-engaged at once. 50c Admits to All. Children 10c Come and Spend All Day.
