Slpe announces the third senson of Winifred St. Claire and her own, company. This company, though practically only two vcare old now, holds the distinction, among managers ami theatregoers of the middle West of being the foremost traveling stock organization playing that territory. Wini- fred St. Claire, who is the star of the com- pany, is a diminutive little lady jnst out of her teens but by her cleverness she has won the recognition of some of tbe most Important managers. Tlie company bis been chris- tened "the record breaker," and that It de- serves the title Is proved by the fact that it has broken eighty per cent of the house re- cords In the Middle States. The latest reports show that we have broken records In the month of June for ovsr J400 each, and broke our own record In Dan- ville and Champaign, III., too gross receipts for last month being t7,02a.4(). The com- pany will start on fair dates In two weeku. These arc return engagements, for we hold records In every fair date wo will play this year. At tbe beginning of th<> regular season Manager Slpe will Invade the Eastern ter- ritory with Miss St Claire and her com- Knny. A now and up-to-date repertoire of Igh class royalty plays has been selected, and two carloads of special scenic effects will bo carried to correctly mount each pro- duction. Mr. Rlpe's novel advertising Ideas arc making hla show a byword with all tho big managers. Last week he sent ont all over the united States handsome felt pen- nants over four foot In length tearing the name of his company. The pennant* are handsome, and any manager would feel prond to have one In bis office or theatre lobby. The roster of the company will remain the game with a few additions. In support of Winifred St. Claire are: Frederick Lyle, director; Horace Llnncr, Harry Cansdale, Harold Kltcr. Fred Ells- worth, Clyde Holmes, James Shaw Jr., Raleigh Cogswlll, Sam Carlton and Jacx Elliot, LiU'lla Pulton. Bertha Allen, Miss Tyler Kent, and "Nanny" Orennan. Earl D.
