Another recent case Is that of a performer who offered bis act to a prominent booking mag- nate for *i!i>o per week. He was stalled off, on one pretext or another, until hi* patients was exhausted, and then he went to an ob- scure agent and told his difficulties In getting booked over that circuit. The small agent assured him that If he made his price 1300 and band over to him the extra $50 per week, he would get the contract for him. This being assented to, he received a contract from thc booking magnate he first approached. lor fourteen weeks, at $300 per week, which was $50 per week more than he had offered IMPOR TANT NO TICE!
