On Monday evening, March lst, the
laughable drama in three acts, entitled
Between the Acts" will be presented
in the Stockton High School Assembly
Hall. This play was given some years
ago in Pocomoke City and was so well
received that it was repeated there a
few weeks ago. 1t was greeted there
again by a very large and appreciative
audience, and no doubt it will have as
great success here. The actors in the
play are all Pocomoke ladies andgentle-
men and the town papers as well as the
people of Pocomoke give them unstinted
praise for the excellent manner in
which they played their parts. Thus
far our Star Course here has run behind
the receipts over $40 90 and il is hoped
by means of the play to make up that
deficiency so that it may be possible to
have another Course here next season.
Tickets are now on sale at Wharton's
store at 80 cents for reserved seats and
% cents for general admission. As this
is not one of the course of entertain
ments, everyone who attends must buy
ticket for it. Come and have sixty
laughs minute" for couple of hours.
