THE Jack Trust" presented
last Monday night at Pitchford's
Hall by local cast, was given a most
hearty reception. Owing to the very
muddy condition Of the streets and
sidewalks since the heavy snow, there
was not large audience, but still the
play realized about $11 in excess of
expenses, and this will prove good
addition to the funds for the library.
Those taking part in the play we're:
| Miss Mamie Ansel Mrs. r. A. Berne,
Miss Mamie Harrison, Miss Geraldine
llughs, Miss Annie Werner and Wade
G. Hughs. The Jack Trust" is a
laughable little comedy and the
characters throughout were admir-
ably presented. The highest praise
was gwen to both play and players.
