 The weather Monday evening was perfect and the roads in good con- dition for the benefit of all who gathered at the church. a goodly company, but with some notable omissions, to enjoy the s'Old Time Singing School, the pretty play by South Wilmington talent that was given last Friday evening at Memorial church and kindly repeated on the Hill. The costumes were tasteful and picturesque giving to the whole tableau an artistic effect. All the parts were taken and the musical numbers finely rendered, Mrs. W. H. Hall at the piano. The little play never lost interest for a moment, and the wonderment at what ''the little lad' and his interesting little girl companion in mischief would do next never resulted in disappoint- ment-for, continually, there was something doing. The thanks of the audience are due to all who partici- pated in giving so much pleasure and enjoyment and all present may have the satisfaction of feeling that they helped forward a worthy object

 So far as the legislature goes, the interest seems to center on what it will do with the equal franchise bill, the workmen's compensation amend ment exempting employers of less than five persons, and the governors recom- mendation that each county take care of its own hospitals, and each town assume all expenses of its schools.
 It is evident that it will not do to advertise local entertainments very heavily as there is limit to the seat ing capacity of social hall as we'll as all other buildings. Last Friday evenings entertainment brought out a crowded house, and it was well worth while. ''Ye Olde Folkes con- cert'' was all that was claimed for it and then some. It was repeated Mon. day evening at the Center, and we are told that it is wanted in other places.
