Tuesday evening 23 musical Meth odists enjoyed a trip to Talent, where they took part in an enter tainment given for the benefit of the new Methodist church of our sister city. Some went by train, some by auto and others drove down, but they all managed to arrive about supper time. The good people down there were prepared for them, however. and ushered the hungry Ashlanders into a side room of Uie church where was spread a bountiful repast aud to which the Granite City guests did ample justice. The entertainment was held in the new school building, a splendid structure of which any city might be proud. One feature might be im proved, and that is the stage light ing, which is effected by means or a single' strong light hung above the center of the platform and which casts grotesque shadows over the performer's face or leaves him alto gether in the dark. The star performer was Mr. Meer kamp van Embden, a gifted pianist from Amsterdam, Holland, who for the past two months has been visit ing his daughter, Mrs. Oorthuys, who lives one mile south of Talent. Miss Meerkamp van Embden accompanies her father and she and Mrs. Oorthuys favored the audience with vocal selections. Mr. Meerkamp van Embden and daughter start Friday on their long homeward Journey. The latter resembles in appearance her beloved Queen Wllhelmina. With the exception of a song by Mrs. Fuller, the rest of the program was furnished by the Ashlanders, all of whom responded to encores. There were vocal solos by Mrs. Wolf, Mrs. Poor and Miss Engle, a duet by Dr. Tilton aud Mr. Oien, and two selections by the men's chorus. Mrs. Palmerlee, Miss McWilliams and Mr. Yeo played the accompani ments. Mr. Campbell gave a num ber of readings, each of which brought down the house with a crash. The last number on the program was the playing of several national air3 by Mr. Meerkamp van Embden. The audience rose and sang "Amer ica" upon hearing the first notes of our national anthem. A little later the Holland ladies, not to be out done, rose and sang their national song, the audience rising also and listening with much interest and re spect to this tribute to the far away Vaterland. The entertainment was well at tended, every seat ou the main floor being filled and quite a crowd occu pying the gallery. Drs. Greg;; and Johnson came in autos and Mr. Pal merlee drove down. The Ashland delegation was composed of the fol lowing: Messrs. and Mesdames L. C. Poor, J. A. Lemery, S. C. Oien and H. S. Palmerlee; Mrs. C. B. Wolf; Misses Gertrude Engle, Frances Mc Williams, Kathryn Miller and Maple Payne; Messrs. C. F. Tilton, G. W. Gregg, J. P. Johnson, G. H. Yeo, R. P. Campbell, West, Clayton Borror, O. E. Crews, G. H. and O. H. Barn hill. News of the W, O. W. We believe one great function of a newspaper is to give its readers the news and to give it to them straight. The reliability of cur news columns is demonstrated every day. In our issue of last Thursday we said "The Woodmen are active." The correct ness of this statement was proven by a rousing meeting held by Ashland Camp, No. 243, Woodmen of the World, in I. O. O. F. hall Saturday evening, February 8. A goodly number was in attendance and 11 applications were balloted on and elected to become members of the local camp. " By unanimous action of the camp Saturday, March 22, was fixed as the date for holding a class Instruction, and Clerk J. R. Wick says the num ber cannot be less than 56. The circle of the Women of Wood craft were also in session, and after the business meetings were over re freshments were served and a Jolly good time had by all. Enthusiasm is running high, and, as we said last week, "The Woodmen are active." We r.ow say the Wood men are more active. District Manager W. L. Spicer of Oroville, Cal., is working In Mod ford this week, but will 'be In our city during the coming week, work ing with the loca' choppers. Keep your eye on the Woodmen of the World, and if you want reliable news, read the Ashland Tidings. Even Exchange.
