a meeting place for entertainment
institutes and conventions Of various
kinds. The finances Of the villagf
are not in good enough condition {,
make a lay out for a hall or opera
house and probably will not be for
a number OF years. Some of our Sc
cret orders have been considering the
matter of building an opera house
as an investment and most of these
interested have little doubt that II
would make big paying investment
but, as none OF them have seen their
way to finance such an enterprise.
and 1t seems that M 5es may yet be
the one to lead us out of the will
derness to something better. Who
ever does engage in the enterprise
we hope that they will build large
and substantial enough to meet the
future needs of the town for good
many years to come.
