THE REDS ENTERTAIN.

The Reds, one of the contesting sides in
the membership contest which is now GO
ing on at the Y. NJ. c. A., gave an enter
tainment at the gymnasium on Thursday
evening Of last week which some say
eclipsed that of their rivals, the Blues,
given a few evenings previous. The
Blues, of course, do not admit the truth OF
this assertion, and the relative merits of
the two entertainments are still a mooted
question.
Anyway the Reds gave a good show,
the audience was vastly pleased, and they
made quite a bit of money, which is per-
haps the main thing. 1t was an old
fashioned town meeting, and the proceed
ings were cl sely along the lines of a
March meeting.
Osmond Emery was elected moderator,
and presided in a manner which caused
much merriment. Vernon Wasgatt was
chosen clerk, and the three selectmen
elected were John Boston Ellis, Warren
Shaw, and A. Salesman Newman.
The various articles in the warrant were
discussed by previously appointed orators,
who kept the audience in good humor as
sisted by numerous free-lances who
butted in whenever occasion offered.
The speech which apparently gave the
greatest pleasure was that of Bloomfield
Higgins, Eden's deputy sheriff,o the prop
osition to divide the town. 1t was the prize
speech of the evening, and the speaker was
applauded to the echo when he took his
.y,sa lie
during his great oratorical effort. About
$50 people we're present, and erybody got
his moneys worth in good solid fun.
