Social given at Schiager School-houss
Monday evening was a grand success.

and the numerous beautiful boxes,
which were sold by the famous auc.
tioneer, Mr.. Brynjnlson, brought q
nice sum Of money.
The 3 act play presented was car
ried splendidly and the performers
are to be congratulated upon their
success. Nick Boone, as the coined
ian by Palmer Nelson was a laugh
provoking character, yet a whole
souled manly fellow withal. Edith,
the wronged wife, by China Nelson,
carried a very pathetic part, while
Sally, the maid, taken by Nora Jacob
son. was a very amusing character.
Arthur Roe, as Mr.. Harvey, looked
and acted a fatherly part while Henry
Hanson as Tuttls showed his affect
ions strongly for Miss Edith but was
outwon by Walter Gordon. as Mr..
Forest, the star actor. His part could
not have been improved. Little Rita
Forest, by Loyla Christopher was 4
sweet child and Palmer Roe as the
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1912-03-22
