handsomely costumed young women will
sing Rosey Posey, which is undoubtedly
the greatest hit Of the season. Miss Drew
Is very talented young woman who

there are the CardoWnie Sisters, national

pieces an artistic dash and finish we are
promised the much heralded beauty and
eminent primo donna, Miss Edith Hutch

because Lib Republicans expressed
their preference at the recent primary
for some one else in the Office of
county attorney. s. B. Wilson should
not be elected. The Enterprise fails
to mention that about 300 Republi-
cans expressed preference for Mr..

preference to Republican candidate.
At the rece, primary Mr.. Champlln
