Ii any one thinks that people in Granite
haven't got talent they are badly mis-
taken. A few of Us were badly taken
back and most agreeably surprised when
we witnessed a very neat and clever
double clog dance given by Argall and
Kelley. 1t is to be hoped that the above

exhibition OF their artistic ability. and let

understand that the shooter had good

in bed where he should have been, and
not where he was there would have been
no cause for foot race. "Whod a
thought it.
