economy and making every dollar
count. 1t is his ambition to build g

Ogarita and Hatfield gave two pleas
ing performances in the Institute build
! ing Thursday and Friday evenings to
fairly good audiences. These players
give a good, honest performance and
when it is considered the number of
parts they have to take OFF it is really
wonderful. This is their second ap-
pearance in Manning and we believe
those who attended their performances
were well pleased.

The County Board OF Equalization
met in the court house yesterday and
Mai. A. J. Richbourg was selected
chairman. Reports from the various
townships were made and they all
showed healthy condition of affairs.
In some instances there was a tendency
to reduce valuations and some few cases
OF tax tax ddedsing, but as a whole the re-
turns are fairly made. Every township
was represented and the members OF
the board seem to feel an interest in
the work. The property valuation for
this county will aggregate more than
