Of the many who have heretofore

reason Of the fact that there we're
no rentable homes available. 1t is
to be hoped that others who own lots
will consider the advisa bility Of put

$500 was realized, the auditorium
being packed to its capacity. Miss
Stribling and those taking the vari-
Gus parts In the play deserve much
credit for their efforts to help better
the illiteracy situation in South Car

be used to assist in establishing a
night school in Walhalla, at which
1t will be the endeavor to teach not
a few Of the illitcrate ones to read
