ic by our band, after which Rev. b.
Hengst offered a very appropriated
prayer. Rev. j. G.. w. Herald, the
leading spirit and president of the soci-
ETY., delivered a fine salutatory address.
Mr.. w. T. Auman's recitation from
"Hamlet" does much credit to his in.
dustry as a student of literature as well

Recitations by Miss Jessie Rhoads, Miss
Eva Kreamer and Miss Lille EiSen-
huth were well received by the audi
ence. The essay read by Miss Cora b.
Reifsnyder deserves special mention.
"Village School" by the class with Mr..
John W. Lose as schoolmaSter, was well
pei formed and created much merri-
ment. The good old way of keeping
school was illustrated to perfection.
"Jollities,"' by Geo. w. Harter caused
ripple of laughter which was kept up
throughout the entire reading. Tab

Miss Annie Rhoads occupying the
throne as queen, gave the audience all
excellent idea of "Gypsy life in ye olden
tyne"
