Major Abe Levi. who with his wife
are sojourning at Mt. Clements Michi-
gan, sert US a Fourth Of July menu
card from the Park Hotel. The card
is in itself a work of art, and we would
not pretend to get out anything like
it, but what we could have done for
that menu would have made the man
agement of the Park Hotel reinforce
it's culinery der artment. To read the
list of good things was a water-mouth
producer, and for country newspaper
man to come no nearer to the dishes
than an elaborately artistic menu card
is torture indeed.
The young folks gotu an imprompu
performance last Friday evening which
would have been more largely attend
ed had it not been for the inclement
weather, but as it was, the audience
very much the various
numbers, especially the recitations of
Misses Gertrude Bradham and Ella
Ottolengui, the duet by Miss Sybil Or
diorne and Mr.. John McFall, and
rendered solo by Miss
Sybil Ordiorne. The play was an ''at
home" and several of the skits were
good. The performance for tomorrow
night has had several rehearsals and
it will be enjoyed.
