CHERRY SISTERS

THE GIRLS IN RED

Marion Sentinel: The Cherry Sisters drove over to Central City Tuesday, attired in bright red, and gave one of their original programs in the evening. As usual, they drew a good house.

THE CHERRY SISTERS AGAIN

The famous Cherry Sisters, alias the bright and brilliant northern stars, illuminated the heavens of northern Linn, Central City. Tuesday evening, appearing before a crowded house with their original program of new music, new songs, new acts, lovely costumes, tons of talent and carloads of fun. Aggregations of attractions once seen never to be forgotten. The house was a financial success and the sisters covered themselves all over with glory, winning oceans of applause. They speak highly of their reception and treatment by Central City, and of the efforts of Mayor Davis and his corps of police to maintain order and give them a fair show to display their attractions. They made a decided hit in their song of “Eulogy of the Cherry Sisters”-“Cherries ripe, Cherries red, the Cherry Sisters are Always Ahead.”
