1.-THE TIGER AND The $685.
LAMB PtEASES

Eugene MOOre's southern three act
drama with its foundation laid in the
mountains of Tennessee, was wildly
portrayed in it's true southern char
acters and pleased the large audience
Friday evening, Aug.27th at Days
Opera House. The characters were
true to, the south in dress, dialect
and mannerisms. Anyone who had
travelled in the south to any extent
could readily distinguish the pleasing
ways of the southern people. The
plot centered about little red
schoolhouse'' in which the school
master represented the Clay family
well known in the south and the pu-
pill handsome younglady-a member
of the Lee family. A feud existed
between these two families, which
was intensely bitter. The school
master and pupil were in love with
each other, and when they discover
ed they were members of these OPP
posing families, their course of true
love- run anything but smoothly
Persistence and perseverance finally
wins out and "all's well that ends
WELL The play was a good moral
one and the players all left good
impression with their audience who
will be glad to welcome their return.
