A large number of our theater
lovers saw “The Lion and the
Mouse” in Dallas last Friday
aad Saturday. Some were very
much pleased while others think
there wTas a scattering of
strength in the plav, such as the
title would suggest, with more
of the mouse than the lion.

tended the funeral of F. K.

ial service was conducted by the

Twenty baseball suits have

our people are planning to enjoy
themselves along these lines also.
We are glad to report that the
little daughter of F. A. Camp-
bell, who has been sick with
scarlet fever has recovered, and
it is only necessary now to wait

require some twenty or more
days, before it is safe to meet
others. There have been no
new cases reported and the
physicians think it probable
there will be none.

Uncle Harvey Taylor celebrat-
ed his 86th birthday anniversary
Thursday of last week, and the
annual family reunion and big
dinner was given. The company
numbered about fifty and was
composed of children, grand-
children and very close friends.
Among the presents given Uncle
Harvey by his children was a
graphvphone, which he enjoys
very much. Dr. Parks took Mr.
and Mrs. Taylor for their first
auto ride, and the day had many
very happy incidents. We join
with friends and relatives in
wishing this venerable gentle-
man many more happy anniver-
saries.
When on his foot, it may look neat and graceful to
your eye, but HE KNOWS.
The difference between an easy-rfitting and an ill-
* fitting shoe is the wearer’s secret, but he cannot
always keep it to himself.
Foot freedom of the right kind is found by wearers
of “ADaVk-Gxwr” shoes —that smooth, soft
finish within spells easy comfort for the foot
all the time of wearing.
We now have in the new stock ot high and low cuts,
and invite inspection and comparison. /
Wearing them is believing in them—try a pair today.

The musicians of the city were
invited to meet Mrs. Mamie Ful-
sopae Wynne at the home of Miss
Winifred Hulbert last Friday
morning. About twenty re-
sponded and after a short talk
;• ft. ft’ ■ l- • • -
on the benefits of correct musi-
cal training and of choral work,
a c^ral class was organized by
electing Mrs. W. G. Howell,
president; Mrs. Bob Mitchell,
treasurer, and Miss Lucile Cur-
ry, secretary, Mrs. Wynne di-
rector. The class now numbers
about twenty and is open to oth-
ers who desire to join. Our peo-
ple were very much .pleased with
Mrs. Wynne’s singing.
The program rendered at
Woodman Hail Friday evening
of last week was more than
worth the price ot admission.
Mrs. Mamie Fulsome Wynne
rendered two vocal solos, and re-
sponded to an encore after each
selection. Tier voice is a won-
derfully deep sweet contralto,
and her ease in singing is very
pleasing. Mrs. Betr^JUis in her
clear pure soprano Sang ‘‘Love’*
Sorrow,” and as an encore
“Helen.”
