DRAMATIC CLUB PLEASES

Thei presentation of the three-act
comedy, "Pygmalion and Galatea,"
by the Stanford Dramatic Club at
the opera house Wednesday evening
was an excellent piece of work, and
those who took part have cause to
feel proud. They also have reason to
be thankful that they have such an
instructor as Miss Esther Burch, who
has so we'll prepared them in their
work, that they might appear almost
any where and have no fear of the
result. Misses Elizabeth Farra, Marie
Ballard, Gertrude Gaines, Elizabeth
Hum, Bessie Moore, Gertrude Will
kinson, Kittie Jones, Anna X. Ma
theny, Mrs. Lillian Warner and Mr..
Joseph Ballou each played so well
the role assigned them that the au-
dience was more than pleased-it
was surprised, and most agreeably
so. Considerable histronic ability was
shown and the ease with which the
players went through their parts
showed not only careful training, but
an ability on their part to cleverly
carry out whatever is asked of them.
Miss Burch need have no fears about
her class not making good. 1t could
take care of play even heavier than
"Pygmalion and Galatea,' which
many an amateur would tremble at
the thought Of. The presentation of
"Pygmaloin and Galatea" was a clev-
err evenings work ond great credit is
due those who took part as well as
the instructor. Just before the play
was given the following ladies gave
a classic Greek dance: Mrs. j. H.
Wright, Mrs. r. P. Brown, Mrs. ]. B.
Perkins, Misses Lyle Cooper, Mary
D., Margaret and Ruth Beck. Their
work was exceedingly clever. Miss
Nancy Yeager, at the piano, did her
work well, as she always does. The
"Blue Ellen" orchestra furnished
sweet music for the evening.

MORE PAY FOR MINERS

The Coleman Mining Company, Of
Cary, Bell county, operating the Fox
Ridge mine, gave their miners an in
crease in wages of 80 per cent, May
IA. This is the third advance the
company has made for mining coal
since January l, 1917, which makes
a total increase over last years scale
III the miners wages of SO per cent
The present rate is the highest paid
by any mining company in Kentucky.
c. R. Coleman, of this city, vice
president and general manager Of
the Coleman Mining Company, said
that it is absolutely necessary to adj
vance the rate of mining for the rea-
son it was impossible for the miners
to earn under the old scale sufficient
money to support their families at
the high cost of food. Labor in the
mining sections is getting very scarce,
and at present there is not enough
labor to produce the usual output.

LETS co, BROTHERS"

A voice from an audience of $50
ministers, saying "let's all go, bro
thers," caused the abrupt adjourn
ment of the annual convention of
the Christian Ministerial convention
of Indiana at Kokomo, so the minis
tiers could tender their services to
the State during the war. The entire
membership of the association at the
convention went in body to Indi-
annapolis and offered their services to
to Governor in any way they can be
used in the program for mobilization
of the influence of the church for the
country during the war. A resolution
was being considered to send small
delegation to represent the assOcia-
ton when the unknown speaker ex-
tended the invitation to "all CO." the
suggestion carried with shout. Much
unfinished business was before the
convention.

OWING TO the disturbed CONDITION
consequent upon the war and the
fact that the farmers are greatly be-
hind in their work, and that it would

the request of the members of the
bar, Judge C. A. Hardin has an
nounced that all jurors, grand ard
petit, are excused from attending the
May term of the Lincoln circuit
court, beginning Monday, May 2Sth.
No court will be held for the jury
cases. Judge Hardin will convene

The Interior Journal is glad to an
nounce that tickets for the Lincoln
Chautauqua to be held at Stanford
May 81 to 81, are going RAPIDLY and
lit looks as if the Woman's Club,

ton here, will come out all right fl
nancially. There will be no doubt
about it if all those who have agreed
to take season tickets do so. On the
eighth page of this paper the pro-
gram of the Chautauqua is given and
a perusal of it will show that it is
an excellent one. Some speakers and
entertainers of national fame are on

sion. SO pays the bill to the dozen or
more entertainments. You couldn't
