High School Entertainment.

The graduating class of the
Winslow High School will repeat
their class play, in the Spring
a Young Mans Fancy" at the
Electric Theatre soon. The cast
will be the same as at the
previous performance with the
exception of Miss Pauline Woods,
whose part will be filled by Miss
Leorena Shipley. Our readers
will remember we started at the
time of the first performance
that the little comedy was
handled with the skill of artists,
and was better attraction than
many Of the professional troupes
that have appeared before our
people. The Mail man owes an
apology to his young friend;
William Wright, the genial press
agent of the class play for failure
to mention the coming attraction
last week, but it was an over
sight that sometimes happens in
the best regulated offices, and
we regret it more than he does.
So we must insist that all our
friends attend the performance
and give them an overflow crowd
to atone for our sin of omission.
Watch for the date.
