STANDING ROOM AT A PREMIUM

The Gym at the High School was
packed last Wednesday night, and for
two hours the audience was delighted
with the renditions Of Prof. Pepp &
Co, all the characters made up by
home talent, 1t would take more
space than we have. to give full de-
tailed account Of the program, as
there were twelve or fourteen charac-
ters. They are all personally known,
and as the citizens of the town were
most generally present, that is nearly
every family represented, we deem it
unnecessary to enlarge on each mem,
Der Of the company, though all de-
serve special mention. The acting Of
many were real good, and amusing ex-
pressionS frequently brought down

good all the way through, and each
performer came in for words of praise
1t was play full Of fun, and as it
proceeded, you could look over the
audience and see many Buttonbusters.
Th,rs was one chars cter, Miss Marga-
ret Patteson, who played boys part,
and she acted it 40 we'll compliments
were frequently heard over the audi,
ence.
"Aunt Manerva." Mrs. G. F.
St1lts, was there, full of life, as we'll
as Pertunia, Miss Katie Murrell, who
pulled off many laughabIe hits.
G. B. Buttonbuster, Horace Walker,
kept the audince in an uproar-- Po
licemap, Abba Eubank, welded his
billy to good effect.
Prof Pepp. DR.. Depp, was positive
dignifed, in having the rules of the
institution over which he presided
obeyed.
All the young ladies, mentioned be-
low. sang and acted charmingly.

ment and made not mistak ke.
The foilwing young ladies, who haG
parts, graced the stage: Misses AL
