port of this society as we should like
to give. They are doing admirable
work. The performances last Friday
evening would have done credit to
much older and more experienced per-
formers. Percy Harris, Cora Bliss,
Mamie Norris, Lola Smeltzer, Eugene
Talcott and Tillie Ashford all did well
in their various parts. Tillie Ash
ford's "Smack in School" was highly
appreciated and encorcd. The Village
SJtings, edited by Sam. Ellis and
Mullie Gillihan, was interesting and
spicy. The thing of the evening was
the dramatic representation by May
Ellis, Maddie Colborn, Clara Welsh,
Docia Young and Eugene Talcott.
Miss Ida Jones was prevailed upon to
sing song, which was highly appre-
ciated. When "visitor's night" comes
We sure to call upon the High School
