Article on the attractiveness of matinee offerings

Lists all of the matinees scheduled for 05/14/70. “…Here are eight matinées. The entertainments offered are of all sorts and suited to all classes of minds. Should the afternoon prove fair we doubt not the town will be unusually gay and the theaters unusually prosperous. They offer a great deal of innocent pleasure to a busy and overworked population; their influence is salutary, in the main; and they have our best wishes for all days no less than for to-day.”
