Miss Hattie Rowell's elocution
class gave very pleasant entertain
ment at Good Templars' Hall last
Friday evening. The hall was well
filed with very intelligent audi
.ence and the recitations showed care
full training, and as the class had on
ly taken lessons for one term, showed
the efficiency of the teacher, much
better than words can express. We
regret that a standing engagement
prevented our being present to note
the personal excellence Of those who
took part in the exercises, and yet,
where all did so we'll special notice is
not essential. Miss Rowell will open
the second term of her School of Elo-
cution next week. All interested are
specially and generally invited to
join the class and we feel perfectly
sure that any one who attends her
class, even for one term, will learn
that which will be of great ad-
vantange to them all through life.
Class terms Sc for 30 lessons. Pri-
vate lessons 81 each with the privi-
lege of class lessons.
Mr.. Fassett, one of the best known
portrait and scenic painters of the
state, who has probably decorated
more fine residences, including the
celebrated Colby mansion at Niles,
and public halls than any other one
man in Michigan, will exhibit scenes
in the Yellowstone National Park to
the people of Owosso, at Opera Hall,
on Thursday and Friday evenings of
next week, Nov. 8, and 9. This ex-
hibition is neither magic lantern
show or panorama, but the exhibit
ton by new process of his own in
vention, of beautiful life like paintings
of some of the most wonderful natural
scenery to be seen under the sun,
Speaking of this exhibition the lead
paper of Laport, Ind, pronounces il
"the most .instructic, grand and en-
chanting exhibition we have ever
seen here or elsewhere" Remem
ber you can enjoy this magni6cen,
entertainment at Opera Hall nexl
week. Don't miss it.
This stupendous work of art has
been produced at far greater expense

bined, both of which were exhibited
in Philadelphia during Centennial
season and one of which is now be.
ing exhibited in New York city.
