On behalf of the members of the w
C T U | wish to thank each and every
person who took part in the Operetta
Fairy Queen, recently presented in our
town under the auspices of our Union.
Many who assisted US were business
men and women, and we appreciated
the fact that 1T was very tiresome and
trying upon them to come from their
days work to the rehearsals night af-
ter night. We feel also that it was try
ing upon the children, each succeeding
afternoon, and we appreciate as well
way of preparing costumes for the
children. We feel grateful to Miss
Jennie May Harris, our pianist for the
occasion, who was ever at her place at
each and every rehearsal. We are es-
pecialIy proud of the nice lot of adver-
tisemeuts secured for u programs, as
we understand it was the greatest num-
Der EVER secured for any n program
in the town. Scarcely a business firm
or person refused us. We feel deeply
grateful also to Mr. Horace Mullen.
manager of the Opera House, for his
many courtesies and liberal conrribu-
ton. After the settlement was made
with the lady in charge of the Operet-
ia, Mr. Mullen donated to the Union
his charge for the Opera House, name
ly the sum of $25. 90. So, l repeat, we
feel under great obligations to each
person who assisted us in any way, and
on behalf of our Union, l wish to make
this public acknowledgement to each
and every one.
