High Class Shows Jx/Mj Will Be Staged A At Every Camp 'EEPj The truth of the old saying, "All Hi work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," has been kept well in mind by B| bu yjnjjj Uncle Sam in establishing the thirty two army cantonments throughout W RTm the country. The big brown tents of BrM ffl M the Redpath Activities Commission IJU* are now being put up in the different m camps and up to the minute programs B Ijtn ^ will be given nightly for the army n'l ftl N The object of .the Redpath Actlvl- H jS ties is to furn*3h clean, wholesome Eg In U entertainment at movie prices. The Hf I entire project will be run on a cost jflf-tt m basis with no profit to any one. Ac counts will be audited by the Fosdick Commission of the War Department on Training Camp activities and all jf^Jrvr7 money above actual expenses turned KjTWyV over to the camp. The present plan is to change the bill weekly and semi-weekly depend- ItJi V//*? ing on the nature of the attractions. 11\ Mfl The programs will be given in vaude- \\Ay vllle form; three or four different at- |p/C J tractions appearing each night. Lively comedy will predominate at all 1 V*I. times in all of the acts. The boys want fun and the Redpath tent Is going to be full of it. A wide variety !lg\ r/jjdh will be given?music, both vocal and &sVlfKflT instrumental; light opera, orchestra and band concerts; cartoonists; make-up artists; comedy sketches; plays, and in fact high-class produc- \sLw[y^ Hons of every character, with cos- MP 1 ' tumes and scenic and lighting effects j 4 as good as to be found in the metro- i| il Dolitan theatres. V\Y'< The shows are already In full 'C swing In Camp Grant, Rockford, 1111- V \ nols; Camp Custer, Battle Creek. \ Michigan, and Camp Sheridan, Chilli- ^ " cothe, Ohio, where the big crowds and hearty applause each night show that the boys are getting what they E&?? want. Some of the attractions al- KbB rtady presented have been ^h^ White raj&kl Hussars, a singing band; the Fair- WraprjT child Sisters, a vocal and Instrument- * al quartet; the Klllarney Girls, a sextet in songs and stories; Reno. IttgB&taQ] magician; Ratto. wig and grease paint man; and a complete production of Gilbert and Sullivan's light ixOO opera, "The Mikado." Harry P. Harrison, manager of the mm i, Redpath Bureau, Chicago, and Chair- i II I man of the Redpath Activities Com- I I I mission, says: "The War Commission U II R is to be congratulated on availing 1 l| themselves of this tremendous force. [I . Every father's and mother's heart ' will be lightened at the thought that fl the War Department is providing in U I the camps the influence of the Ameri- U can Chautauqua and that their boys' U u(, | lives while away from home will bo j* ' brightened by such wholesome entei- P233 tainment." -fr j .wi - <*
