'Two Old Conf ederates"
Whenihose "Two Old Confed
erates," Col. Tom Booker and
Capt. Tony Miller, assisted by
Polk Miller's Old South Quartette
of genuineyirginia negroes, come
to the Caldwell High School Aud
itorium on February 13, 8 p. m.
the people of Richmond will have
an opportunity to hear one of the
most delightful and unique enter
tainments ever presented on any
stage. V
There is no other combination
of entertainers in the world like
this. Col. Booker and Capt Miller
are both old time Virginia gentle
men who served under General
Robert E. Lee. When they sur
rendered with him at Appomat
tox Court House, they laid down
1& i-.
their muskets and went back
home to find their old plantations
stripped of everything in the way
of worldly possessions, but they
went to work like real men to
make the best possible use of the
limited opportunities before them
and they have succeeded.
These two old heroes have
started out on their present cam
paign with banjos under their
arms instead of muskets on their
shoulders, and they have captured
everybody they meet. They tell
some very humorous stories of
the old times in the south, play
the "Old Virginia Reel" and the
"Arkansas Traveler" in a way
that makes it hard for those in
the audience to keep their feet
still, and when they turn loose
that quartette of earthquakes,
those four Virginia negroes, who
as one critic has said, "look like
farm hands and sing like Caru
so's," in such songs as "Old Dan
Tucker," "Shouting Moaners,"
the "Huckleberry Picnic" to say
nothing of "Dear .Old Dixie," it
fairly thrills the blood.
Every old Confederate or Union
soldier within miles of Richmond
will be on hand for this enter
tainment. You could not keep
them away. School children will
be on hand in abundance, for
this entertainment appeals to
both young and old. Those who
fail to attend will miss a never-to-be
forgotten treat. (Adv.

t R S T ANNUAL
AUTO SHOW
Of the Cincinnati Automobile
Trade Association
Cincinnati Automobile Trade Asso
ciation. The design lor the Auto Show poster
was drawn by Mrs. Raymond HendriSk
ton, wife of the president of the Cin
cinnati Automobile Trade Association
-A modern Juno dominating the mo
tor car.
: The poster has taken like wild fire,
and is considered a most decdedly
olever effort for an amateur in success
fully stealing the thunder of the pro
fessional advertising poster artists..
The first annual show of the Cin
cinnati Automobile Trade Association
will be the first auto show ever held in
a fireproof building, and when one ap
proaches the corner of Fourth and
Vine streets they are awed by the
magnificent Union Central Life Insur
ance building, with its first four
floors, stones of white marble, and the
balance of th,e exterior of white ivory
malt terra cotta, relieved with bits of
blue and yellow up to the pyramidal
roof, which is paneled in gold-glazed
tile, which can be seen fcr many miles
by the reflection of light on" gold tile.
Approaching . the main entrance,
which is on the level with Fourth
street, you will note the ornamental
lamps, hand forged, of remarkable de
sign, showing true craftsmanship. On
passing through the bronze door at the
main entrance the spacious hall L
traverses the entire length ' of . the
building.. One is enchanted with
:he grandeur of the decoAtion,
golden ! ceiling, hand-carved im
ported Spanish marble columns and
wainscoting, and the bronze elevator
frames and doors. There are twelve
elevators self-contained in fireproof
partitions and wire glass door in two
batteries, facing each other. Every
modern automatic safety device has
been placed on every car. The express
service is now operated with speed of
700 feet per minute, which is the only
one outside of New York City. Tr,
capacity of service is unequaled in
cinnati, with cars running every -a
and night.
Just beyond the elevator is the stair
way which leads to the Chamber of
Cohimeice, This stairway is all hand
carved imported marble, highly deco
rated, and is conceded to be the finest
stairway in America.
At home from February 7 to 14 and
on, the ground floor, at that, in this
magnificent skyscraper the Cincinnati
Automobile Trade Association are go
ing to make motor oar buying not the
guess wcfk that 'it was in the past.
With so many good cars exhibited of
various types and prices the visitor to
each of its brilliantly illuminated and
esthetically decorated halls can not
fail to find a motor vehicle suitable to
his purse and ideas of taste or style
and all other requisites in the wonder
ful display. v
Entertainment will be a predom
inant feature of the show. Two or
chestras . furnishing music, one f
each floor, Lou Ballman, chairman I
the Committee on Music, selecting the
well and favorably-known Hofer's Or
chestra. Two concerts daily is the
program, or a total of twenty-eight,
high-class concerts during the week,
with avcontinuous auto show from 10
a. m. until 10:30 p. m. ,:
Robert C. Crowthers," chairman of
the Committee on Decorations for the
automobile . show to. be held in the
Union Central building, February 7th
to 14th, under the auspices of the Cin
cinnati Automobile Trade Association,
has awarded the contract for decora
tions to George Fern. Mr. Fern is a
Cincinnati decorator, who 'has done
some wonderful Work. It was he who
created the beautiful scenes In the re
cent holiday ball in the -Hotel Slnton.
This piece of decoration was probably
the finest ever seen in Cincinnati. Mr.
Fern is an artist. He has conceived
a plan to turn the vast ground floor
and- basement of the Union Central
building into a teautiful southern
garden for the week- of the Auto Show.
The rows of white pillars in the build
ing will be utilized to support a mass
of-trellis work, which' will be covered
with growing southern vines and flow
era. Theae will be illuminated by thou
sands of miniature colored lights. The
large windows of the building will not
be covered, and the building will pre
sent a beautiful appearance, from the
outside as well as the inside, both day
and night. ' B6th floors will be deco
rated alike and no distinction will be
made In the-class of exhibits on either
floor. '
