Gifted by nature with a keen sense of humor, it has been developed into a rare art. A gifted story teller and impersonator, he originates most of his material, thus insuring a program different and distinctly new. With his rich voice he out-Lauders the great Harry Lauder himself in his Scotch song and stories. Fortunate indeed the community to which comes Jess Pugh, for there the sun will shine the brighter ever after. Mr.

Pugh is the most versatile, being in the same evening a humorous entertainer, an interpretative reader, a character delineator and a baritone soloist. He has also the rare ability to originate new numbers. Mr. Pugh renders Kipling with a force and virility and such wonderful insight into the author's meaning that he is heralded at once as a reader of power. On the other hand, his humorous sketches in German and Irish are excruiatingly funny, to say nothing of his negro stories.

His rendition of Scotch stories and ballads convulses his audience with laughter and display another phase of his unusual versatility. His voice is a rich mellow baritone and his songs are a very entertaining part of the program. HIGH SCHOOL AUDITORIUM Saturday Evening, March 11th ADMISSION, 50 CENTS THE LYRIC'S Big March Special M.
