High School Concert PIeases

The concert given in the opera
house Tuesday evening by the M. &,
NJ orchestra, was real musical
treat. Those who had never heard
this orchestra, were very agreeably
surprised, in fact there were few if
any persons even though they had
heard it before, but feel that they
got more than they expected, from
the high class program of good mu-
sic that was rendered. Those who
took special parts included the fol-
lowing: Miss Janet Whitaker gave
a humorous reading. Miss Whita-
ker shows splendid ability as
reader. Dean Northrup played a
violin solo. The Misses Margaret
Rothrock, Marcia Davis, and Chris
tine Shilling sang a trio. Miss
Elizabeth Humphrey and Miss Flea
nor Erwin played violin duet, and
Edgar Northrup a solo on the saxo-
phone. Wayne Jackson was on the

A fair sized crowd was out at the
Washington birthday exercises held
under the auspices of the American
Legion, in the opera house, last
Thursday afternoon. The larger
part of the audience was made up OF
school pupils. The G.. A. R. was we'll
represented, and Rev. r. 0. McRae,
commander of MalcOnta Post, Amer
lean Legion, presided. Joseph
Flanders, post commander OF the
local G.. A. R., was also seated on
the stage, with others who had part
| in the exercises. Rev. A. c. Mat
tern offered prayer. Instrumental
music was furnished by the high
school orchestra, sand there was
singing by chorus Of mems voices.
There were two speakers. The first
was Atty G. o. McGonagle. His ad-
dress was, as they always are on
such occasions, splendid one, and
was a combination of observations
concerning the lives of Washington
and Lincoln. The other speaker
was Capt. Wendell B. Thomson
chairman of the state executive COM
mittee of the American Legion OF
Ohio. He is a young man who saw
much service in the late war, and
carries a number of distinguished
service medals, and received spe-
cial citations. He too prefaced his
remarks with a short eulogy of
washington. He spoke of the war,
strife and turmoil in Europe in
| Washington day; and of how some
of the sturdy characters came to
America for freedom. He spoke Of
1.-THE splendid works of Washington
and Lincoln, and of the heritage
that had come down to the present
generation through the services of
| the soldiers, paying fine tribute to
| the members of the G. A. R. It was
these ideals that inspired our boys
! in the late war, and the American
Legion he said was organized to
keep alive the spirit of sacrifice
through which America has passed,
and to endeavor to serve the same
purpose that the G. A. r. has. He
read it's constitution and spoke of
the influence it is having in shaping
certain legislation. 1t is an organ
ization of 100 percent Americanism
he said. He closed with strong ap-
peal for every person eligible to be-
come member.
! In the evening a gathering took
place in the American Legion hall
their new quarters in the Morris
building. The occasion was a sup
per served at $50 by the members
fof The Ladies' Auxiliary, with Mrs
]. K. Bingham, head of the Auxil-
iary, in charge.
The banquet was in joint celebra.
tion of the birthdays of Washington
and Lincoln and was also the ocea-
sion of the formal opening of the
new Legion headquarters. Mrs
Robert Savage catered for the sup
per which was elaborate and re-
