Harvest Moon ,.,. Maxine All Ssn sno,,
The annual harvest supper of the
Good Cheer Society of the Universalist
church will be especially interesting this
year for two reasons. First, special
effort is being made to have the supper
all that could be expected, which means
Of course, variety and lots Of IL, and sec
ond the en-, ertsinment to follow will GER
tainly surpass any previous effort OF the
society to entertain the guests. 1t will
be held Tuesday evening, Oct. 8. Sup
per 6:45 and entertainment at p. NJ.
Considering the high prices prevailing,
fifteen cents for the supper which will
be easily worth twice that amount, and
twenty cents for the entertainment will
meet the approval of all. DR.. Minor c.
Baldwin has played ON the organ of the
Universalist church twice, once in sa-
cred concert and once in a program OF
popular music. Crowds heard him both
times and local critics have agreed that
his superior is not to be found in this
country. DR.. Baldwin will furnish the
entertainment, giving fine program OF
strictly popular music. Tickets for the
concert on sale at Shurtleff's drug store. |
