Rev. Herring is gradually

Physicians report that Rel

Charley's Aunt, written by

direction of George l.. Galley, will
be presented as the annual Junior
Glass play Friday, November ~,
at pm. in the high school aud

farce which has moved millions
to tears of laughter. Jack Ches-

amoured of Miss Spettigue, invite
the young ladies to their rooms
for luncheon in order to meet
Charley's wealthy aunt from
Brazil ("where the nuts come

aunt sends word that she viii

dear young things must not be
compromised - no never! But
neither will the youths give up
the opportunity of declaring their
love. The problem is solved by
forcing another Oxford under
graduate into black satin skirt,
a lace fichu, pair of mitts, an
old-fashioned cap and wig. He,
Charley's aunt, is then introduced
to the sweethearts, to Jacks
father (who is advised by the

TOWN CENSUS
TO BE TAKEN
Church Group Will Conduct
Population Census During
Week of November 10
ALL SHOULD COOPERATE

The town of Smyrna in cooper
alton with Asbury Methodist
Church will conduct a population
census during the week of No
vember 10 and it is hoped that all
residents will cooperate with the
persons taking the census so that
the town can collect its share of
municipal street aid money in
1858, according to announcement
by Town Manager Rex d. Gill
more. In compliance with the
provisions of House Bill No. 157,
as amended, and House Bill No.
399 recently enacted into law
and referred to as "State Munic-
ipal Street Aid Fund, the town
of Smyrna is obligated to make
an up to date census each year
in order to participate in the dis
tribution of 81 100000 for munic-
ipal street work. For the year
1857 the town of Smyrna received
approximately $4,000, based on
the 1850 federal census figures of
2346 persons. At the present
time the town has an estimated
population of 5000 persons. In
order to verify the present popu-
lation for the 1858 distribution OF
municipal street aid funds it is
therefore, necessary to conduct q
complete new census at this time
To verify the towns population
it is necessary to record the
names of all persons of all ages
within the town limits. The CO.
operation of all residents in this
important matter is urged by
Smyrna Town Council.
