MASQUERADE BALL

The Toledo Orchestra will
give a masquerade bail here on
Washington's birthday, Febru-
airy 22d. This will be the first
mask ball to be given in Toledo
for two years or more, and the
orchestra boys promise a big
event, and are doing everything
to make 1t a joyous occasion.
This dance will be the windup
OF the Orchestra, as the boys
expect to disband at that time.
This dissolving of this organiza-
ton will be regretted by the peo-
pie OF Toledo. The boys have
all worked hard and have the
honor of having the best orches-
ira in Lincoln county. The To-
ledo Orchestra has been one of
the organizations our people
have pointed to with pride and 1t
is too bad the organization has
to dissolve, principally on ac-
count of finances-they couldn't
make 1t pay. SO the least we
can do now is to give the boys a
good, big crowd at their final
dance so they may pay off their
Indebtedness and quit square
with the world.
