The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1896-11-28

The little opera entitled "The
Fairies Carnival" given for the benefit
OF the W. c. T. l., was very dainty and
pretty. The leading parts were well
taken, and the choruses were good but
faint. \ few strong voices behind the
scenes would have given the little ones
confidence and then the music would
have shown for all it was worth. For
the length of time spent in getting up
the affair it certainly was well done, and
the little children deserve great praise
for the way they remembered their
parts. The worthy cause as we'll rs the
pretty opera deserved much better
houses. After paying expenses the
hospital will be but little richer than
before.
Lest any of our West End contcm-
poraries should get scoop" Oh US,
we hasten to remark that the wind was
quite strong on Thanksgiving Day, and
bore upon It's wing from across the lake
fine sleet that caused a singing sensa-
ton wherever it touched. Those who
were possessed of good crop of whisk
ers on their faces had the advantage of
the beardless men ana ladies. Owing
to the disagreeable weather people did
not move arond the city very much and
we fancy many invited guests failed to
put in an appearance at the appointed
place Indeed it was one Of those days
it would have been mighty hard to be
thankful for but tor the good things 1t
brought with it.
Our school children, as has been
their usual custom for several years,
took Thanksgiving offerings to their
teachers on Wednesday, which were
turned over by them to the relief socie
ties, who had looked up the needy
families and knew where the provis
ions were most needed. Many Of us
feel that because we cannot have all
that we have been accustomed to that
we know what hard times are, but if
we would take the time and trouble to
visit in some localilies-and, in some
cases, we need not walk many miles
| from our own comfortable homes-we
will be made ashamed of ourselves, and
/ brought to realize that our condition
/ j. PROSPEROUS and fairly luxurious.
