The chorus was snappy and pleasing and demonstrated that home talent is plentiful for any amusement. All of the players were good and deserve special comment, which space will not permit. W. A. Sandige, Phoenix shoe man, received generous applause for his monologue and dance act. Mir. Boehm and Miss Graves sung sev- eral songs that were decided hits. As a whole, the play was all that one could ask and the committee in charge of 1t is to be congratulated upon its success. Among those that attended were former Vice President Thomas R. Marshall and party.
 The regular monthly meeting of the Parent-Teacher association was held at the school house Friday af- ternoon. About 30 attended. A nom- mating committee was appointed, consisting of Mrs. Vanderhoof, Mrs. Chestnut and Mrs. Smith. Principal l.. o. DuRoss gave very interesting talk on the subject Schools" Mir.
