CAUTION! NOTICE! sTiilllll ^ VJ O VAN NtVEH. the Dippy Msd Msgldao. wabss ts tell W: M _ bis Men* that be retaras to Nsaasnsfsi's, WITH SOME NEW MATEBIAL. Also want to sty thst some friends of mine wanted to know what tb* iffiBMit vss that I bed with AL J0L80N la San rrandsoo. Dssr Mod friends. It was do Mlieist AL J0L80N used tome of my material. Ws met in the lobby of tb* Continental Hotel. B» at first was s trifle LOUD. But I guest be knew by the tone of my voice thst I don't lias Issd people. Bo be leaae down to earth end ssld be would cut tbe GAG out Cbas. Nevlns was a witness. There wss NO ABGUMENT. Even four yean ego when I was stopping in dollar-a-day board and room placet and was skinny and unhealthy I would not allow any one to ABGUE with me, so what chance b there now when I am In regular hotels end get meet twice s dsy snd got s room with a bath? I also wbb to deny that while playing Hammmtein's recently that I made the following remark from the stage: DO YOU KNOW THE REASON THEY DON'T HAVE MATINEES DAILY AT THE WINTEB OABDEN. MR. MATT WILL. P. 8.—Began* to Stanley snd rumba and thanks to tb* Continental bunch for helping to make my THIRD week at Orpbsua. Ban Francisco, a SUCCESS. THE REASON THEY DON'T 18 TO GIVE THE COMEDIANS UP THERE A CHANCE TO GO ABOUND AND GET MATEBIAL FOB THEIR ACTS FOB SUNDAY NIGHT CONCERTS. Tbe above remark was not made by me. Some people say. "Van, you bete nerve all right to talk to Jolson like that" WHO 18 JOLSON OB ANY STAB that has a right to use my material? It's mine, I own It—I *arn my bread and butter with It. and JOLSON nor any one else (they all look alike to me) can use It I'm going to protect my rights. I always have and always will snd any man that doesn't protect bis rights Is s C0WABD. Tbe reason I'm putting this sd In is because I want everyone who sees me In New York to know my act Is mine. Whst I didn't write I paid for wltb HONEST, HARD-EARNED MONEY. I want to be successful, but if I can't be that way and be on the level I don't want SUCCESS. When some parties read this they will say: "He's a BUG." Yes. I'm a BUG. tbe BUG that you don't like became I made certain people respect ME, and when a man stoops so low ss to respect a BUG he's worse than tbe bug. VAN HOVEN Tbe Dippy Mad Magadan. DIPPY ENOUGH TO WBTTE MY OWN MATEBIAL AND MAD ENOUGH TO PROTECT IT Now a regular actor—no longer fighting preliminary bouts st five snd ten s night No more big nose and Just a real, nice, good, Mad, honest actor. VAN HOVEN.
