ARTHUR F. BRIESE
ARTHUR F. BRIESE is a new star among humorists.  Good humorists are so few and so exceedingly rare.  Give us something new and different in humorists is a constant cry.  Arthur F. Briese is startlingly different.  The thing he does is so amazing and audacious it fairly takes your breath away.

What a clever genius this man Briese is.  He proved that at the I. L. C. A. convention at Winona Lake; at the Chicago Executives Club; the Chicago Rotary Club; the Chicago Collegiate Club; University of Michigan Club; Ohio State Medical Association; at many great national trade conventions.

A men's group, a woman's group, a mixed group, a convention, a college or culture group — each one he treats differently, preparing humorous witticisms pertinent to each audience, moving each audience from happiness to anger and resentment and then back to laughter.

The more sophisticated the group, the better they will like Briese.  As a doctor uses different medicines for various ailments, so he diagnoses and uses specific material for each individual audience.  Weeks after he has gone his hearers still burst out in enthusiastic laughter at expressions of his wit.  What finer tribute to an entertainer?

Arthur F. Briese is the cleverest find in humorists the Redpath Bureau has made in a decade.  Laughter truly follows in his wake.
