especially "The Mizer" by Mr.. Jonas

the sclioolhouse has been enlarged, it
was necessary to play twice, 50 many were
present.
The play over, the young folks enjoyed
themselves with music and dancing.
The proceeds amounted to $4,000. There
was enjoyment for young and for old,
and us far as we have been able to learn,
all went home satisfied. The ladies ex-
tend their thanks to those who kindly
assisted them, TO the public in general,
