Harry Spear, better known as "Freckles," youthful actor in "Our Gang" comedies, will appear in person on the A-Muse-U theater stage here on Thursday and Friday (the 26th and 27th) of this week to entertain the patrons with his dancing, singing and comedy talking. The youthful actor will also tell of his experiences in the studios of Hollywood.

Manager Ludy Bosten announces that the engagement of "Freckles" here came about only through his having an open date between St. Louis and Des Moines. He is booked in Des Moines for an entire week's engagement. For the last three months, "Freckles" has been making a tour of the country, making personal appearances in many of the leading theaters. He has spent the past thirty days in making appearances on Chicago stages.

A special matinee for school children has been arranged for Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock for the benefit of school children. This hour will permit the children to see the youthful star after completing their school studies for the day.
