The Entertainment Friday Ev-
ening.-It is to be hoped that there
will be a large attendance at the
Town Hall on Friday evening from
both a subjective and objective
consideration. Professor James H.
Crabb has the reputation of being
fine reader and especially enter
tanning in dialect, and private let
ters from Smyrnians now in Will
mington speak well of the vocal
accomplishments of the Misses
Roberts and Miss May Taggert.
The mother of the Misses Roberts
daughter of the late Isaac Hazel
was a resident of this town when
married, and it requires but a lit
tie stretch of the imagination to
speak of them as coming home. A
good attendance will be compli-
mentary to them and help the
poor. Mr.. Phelps cart shows a
considerable number of seats al
ready secured.
