p. e. O. Entertainment.

The P. E. o. society of this place
gave it's annual entertainment at the
opera house Friday evening. 1t was
entitled 1.-THE Old Maids Return from
Oklahoma" where they had been to
secure husbands. The entertainment
was very interesting and amusing.
Nearly all of the old maids had secur-
ed husbands. Some, however, had
been divorced and others had lost their
husbands by death. Some had chill
dren and each and every one of them
exhibited their various talents and ac-
complishments. The entertainment
was interspersed throughout by spec
ialties of singing and dancing and in,
strumental music. Each one on the
program did splendidly in their re-
spective parts and it is difficult to say
which one did the best. The whist
ling of Miss Esthe BEEN and the sing
ing of Miss Susie D. Copeland were
especially deserving of mention. The
women closed the entertainment with
their "Old Maids Convention in
which the annual work of the societ!
was reviewed and collection taker
up to defray the expenses of the so
ciety for the coming year. They re
peated the entertainment as matinee
Saturday afternoon and as result
of the two entertainments the society
is about SIS better off financially.
