Neil Litchfied Trio
at Opera House 29th
Laughter, as an emotion, is as
hygenic as water and light. The
mission of the Neil Litchfield Trio
is to make people healthful and
happy by making them laugh.
Their entertainment serves as a de
lightful ieaven to the heavier and
more philosophical numbers of the
Course. While primarly a humor
ist, Mr. itLchfield also recites —his
selections running from the highly
dramatic to the intensely humorous
and patethic. After his college
course at Corneli University, lie
took several courses of instruction
with the best teachers of elocution
and platform art in the United Sta
tes, thoroughly fitting himself for
a public reader, which profession
he has followed for many years.
Mrs. Litchfield who has had
many years experience on the plat
form as an entertainer and vydiniste
is a close second to her husband.
Miss Abbie Litchfield ably pre
sides at the piano, and gives a truu
to-life personation of Amanda
Green, in the closing comedy'.
The latter half of the entertain
ment is the special feature, “Down
at Brook Farm.” This rural com
edy playlet has been played
over 35,000 times in the United
States, Canada and Europe. It is
clean and refined in character, and,
without a doub,t it is the funniest
comedy on the Lyceum platform
today.
The Lavonia Times says;
Speaking of laughter: Well,
those who heard the Lichfields bad
it. The entertainment was the first
number of the Lyceum course in
Lavonia. They came highly reco
mended and lived up to their repu
tation as being entertainers of a
hig order. The Trio was compos
ed of husband, wife and daughter.
They were a whole show however.
Nobody went away dissapointed.
This was the highest priced enter
tainment ever put on at Lavonia.
Nobody said it wasn’t worth the
price.
Must Pay Dog Tax
if You Wish to Vole
Failure to Pay the Slate Tax
on Canine Disqualifies One
to Register.
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 5. —If a mart
does not pay the state tax of fcl on
his dog he hasn’t got a right to
vote.
And that’s no joke, either,
tous wiseacres to the contrary \i«tr
standing.
The state laws says t hat &> mn
can not register until he has=
all the taxes he is legally
state.
The new attorney-general,
ITulett A. Hall, has ruled tlmi Am■
dog tax is legal, according t<*> Ak.'
constitution of Georgia.
Therefore, if a man returns- a,
million dollar’s worth of profwrty.-
and omits his wife’s potto!*- 'fee
stands a good chance of being ah—
franchised.
And wliat’s more, if them r: vg
,Mature should repeal the dog fasr,
it wouldn’t help him any. lie
could never vote again legally so
long as he lived unless he- we*to
back and paid the tax ott tt&s&
poodle,
The strict enforcement of the dtjg
tax has resulted in a most rtsrasi
able fatality among the cumin rs.
Tax receiver’s report to Compton^-
ler-General Wright that nearly
every day some man will come In
and say: “Well, I did have n dug,
hut he died.”
Which, if they but stop to think
doesn’t relieve them after all, m>
more than a man can gel out of
paying on a house that was burowJ,
but burned down before Ihe time
fell due for the taesx to be paid.
All of which means that atewnl
ing to the way the Hon. Hewlett A.
Hall las it doped out there’s m*
way in the world to avoid paying
the dog tax except to refrain from
owning a dog.
