Just think of having something to
vary the monotony of a Sunday after
noon in Cordova, aside from a walk to
the dock or to Mile 7! Buy a ticket
and join the crowd at the Empress
theater at 2:45 p. m. Sunday, where
you will hear some excellent music
and enjoy the beautiful colored views
of South America, that land of which
so little is known at present, but which
bids fair to spring into great promi

the general custom.
