Audubon still feels the need of an
opera house or large hall to hold as
semblies in. 1t has now no good place
but the churches and they are not the
right place for some things A stock
company and lodge would do good
thing for the town by erecting such a
thing. A proper location would make
a good place to rent the ground floor
and have the up stairs for an opera
house and still another story good
hall for lodge work. Enterprise and
push would make the thing posi-
J bility.
