LAST NIGHT or SMITHS
GREATER SHOWS AT PARK

The bad weather last week made
II impossible for the Smith Shows TO
move the tents and paraphernalia
OF the lot Saturday night, so II was
decided by the management to tear
down today. When the sun came
out yesterday and put the lot in fine
shape, so the manager OF the Park
CO.. got busy and persuaded Mr..
Smith to remain over for tonight.
Consequently the shows will remain
for tonight. All the shows will be
open and in full blast until a late
hour tonight, when they will pull
down and pull out in the morning
for Lynchburg.

Last Thursday evening the doors of
Hill Crest Hall were thrown open for
the first Of the semi-weekly dances
given by the management of the Hill
Crest Hotel. A crowd of cottagers
and hotel people, which comfortably
filled the hall was present, and every
one enjoyed the dancing to their
hearts content. Walter Rogers pre-
sided very acceptably at the piano.
A pleasant feature of the evening
was the impersonation of an English
dude done by little Miss Viola Knei-
land OF Dorchester, Mass. Miss
kneiland, dressed in a lavender silk
coat and tall hat sang very cleverly
and danced with much grace. Her
assurance and self ease were very
pleasing. After numerous waltzes
and two steps interspersed with schot-
tisches and barn dances. the party
broke up about eleven O'Clock. Many
pretty toilettes were noticed. Among
those noted at the dance were Mr.. and
