cess and Melted Circle S9I.o8
A large audience greeted "At the
Ferry" the pretty and clever COM
edy Monday evening under the au-
spices of the Circle of Kings Daugh-
tiers of this town. Miss Lulu Mae
Wilcox of the Central Lyceum Bureau
of Harrisburg, Pa, had only a week
to train the local talent and consider
ing this fact, the entertainment was
one of the best and cleverest ever
given by the people of Smyrna. 1t
would be impossible to praise one |
without praising all. There was not
a member of the cast who did not
take his or her part we'll and the
audience showed their deep apprecia-
tion by frequent and hearty applause.
The performance was repeated again
last night but owing to the heavy
rain only about 100 turned out to see
it. The net proceeds for the two en-
f. tertainments amounted &c Sl8.08
which will be used by our worthy
Kings Daughters for charity pur-
poses.
