Rarest Collection Ever Seen In
Pleasantville.

The Musical Panorama to be given
in Cantes' Theatre next Saturday
night for the benefit of the Pleasant
vile Fire Company, promises to be
the finest event in the home-talent line
Pleasantville has ever seen.
There are fifteen musical numbers,
that include specialties and chorus
work, in which all our best local talent
will participate.
The "Jay" chorus, led by Mr.. Frank
Callahan as "Samanthy Ann" and Mr..
Mervyn Wilson as "Rube", and sup
ported by chorus of fifty boys and
girls who can really sing and dance, in
spite of their "Jay" costumes, make US
think for the time being at any rate
that country pumpkins" can be grace
full as well as energetic.
Little Miss Pauline Stafford and
Master Edward Blake will undoubted-
ly make hit with their duet "Oh Gee,
I'm Glad You're Girl" and Miss Col
laday with her six dainty milk
maids" will sing a mighty catchy song
entitled Military Mary Ann"
Twelve attractively attired young
couples, leu ny MISS DOTOIHy DOWeT,
will sing "Cecelia" and little Miss Ma
omi Krewsen will assist Miss Colladay
in her search for the burglar in 90
oh, Maybe It's Robber"!
We're in the secret and we've prom
ised not to divulge it, but we warn the
audience to leave their valuables at
home and not be frightened at any
thing that happens
The performance is concluded with
a chorus by Mr.. Russell L. Browne,
which includes the entire cast of one
hundred, entitled the Military Band
which is SO tuneful that it will linger
in our ears for many day.
There is a possibility of the show
being repeated on Friday night, Aug.
End, for the benefit of the Boy Scouts
of Pleasantville, and if SO there will be
eight changes in the program, and
Miss Colladay will announce the fact
from the stage Saturday night.

MISS THOMAS WINS THE PIANO
Judges Declare Her Entitled to the $4,000 In
strument Awarded by The Pleasantyille Press
in Its Great Voting Contest

The great Pleasantville Press prize
voting contest came to an end at 8
o'clock Saturday afternoon. Great
interest was displayed from the start,
but in the closing hours there was a
wild rush to get to the ballot box
equal to a general national election.
Miss Marjorie Thomas received the
highest vote, and therefore is the win
ner of the $4,000 Obermeyer & Sons
piano. Miss Ethel Cramer is in Sec
ond position, Miss Grace Adams third,
Miss Marjorie North fourth, Miss
Amanda Yates fifth, Miss Eliza Cor
don sixth, Mrs. Geo. w. Hickman
seventh, Miss Bertha Mason eighth,
Mrs. Emma Price ninth, Miss Elvira
Olivetto tenth and Miss Evelyn Pea
cock eleventh. Each of the above la
dies will receive prize valued at SIS
or more, and doubtless those whose
names do not appear in the lucky
eleven are now sorry that they did
not make an effort, for with little
work they could have been numbered
among the successful ones. All of
the winners except Miss Thomas are
requested to meet at The Pleasant
vile Press office on Thursday evening
next, July 25, at 7.30 o'clock, at which
time the various prizes will be allot-
