Walton, before leaving on his western trip, perfected arrangements with Deacon Johnson, presi dent and manager of the Clef Club. for a series of Sunday afternoon con certs by the entire membership of the Clef Club.

It is hard to conceive of anything that will be more attractive lor the music lovers of Greater New York than to have these Sunday afternoon concerts within the environments of the beautiful Lafayette Theatre. Dea con Johnson promises that the Clef Club will eclipse even its own great reputation in the concert line. The management of the theatre promises in conjunction with the con cert to present a series of special fea ture educational historical moving picture programs, the pictures Starting at 1.30 o'clock, as heretofore. The concert program will begin at 3.30 sharp, every Sunday. This is an unusual combination and will give to New Yprkers something unprecedented jn musical annals.

The policy of the theatre management regarding prices will be the same as has always obtained, and there will be no advance in the price of seats. The management has just completed the installa tion of an air-cooling process, which will make the Lafayette Theatre a cool resort, even on the hottest of days. ST. DAVID'S CHOIR.
