MEMS LEAGUE TO GIVE
A "SMOKELESS SMOKER

This is the facetious designation of
an entertainment which is scheduled for
Monday evening, May 4th, at the Gold
field Presbyterian church. And more
than a score of men, each in turn enter
tanning the audience with humor and
pathos, in song, story and otherwise, is
the spectacle which is to be presented
on that occasion.
This idea originated in the fertile
brain of an experienced entertainer OF
national reputation on the Lyceum cir
cult, who will himself participate in the
task of amusing those who occupy seats
In the church auditorium. For the pres
emit. he will remain incognito. But he
will be there.
The newly organized Mems League
is sponsor for the affair, which is the
first of the kind to be presented in
Goldfeld, and is to be followed by
others, equally uncommon, in the future
The league was organized some time
2 by some of our representative citi-
zens who saw the need of means for
wholesome recreation among the clone
some' ones of the camp, and every
man of good character, whether church
member or not, is eligible to member
ship.
The people will have opportunity to
Judge what this new candidate for pub
lie favor is capable of doing for the
amusement Of its members and their
friends. The promotion of helpful So
cial ties is among its avowed principles.
