The troupe which came here last
Thursday to present the play of "Si
Perkins," was one of the best that
has visited Lamar in recent years.
They created quite sensation by
their ludicrous antics in getting to-
gether as band, just after the din
ner hour, but when they did get in
shape, they rendered some very good
music in very skillful manner The
performance at the opera house in
the evening drew the largest crowd
ever present, and every one enjoyed
the whole affair. Some of the char
acters were overdrawn, but on the
whole the play was well given, and
81 Perkins captured the house. They
will be sure ef another large audi
ence should they return here.
