HART Physician and Surgeon TALENT, OREGON, THURSDAY, FE1JRUARY 20, 1014 Minstrel Show Great Success The minstrel performance Tuesday evening was one of the biggest hits In the history of Talent. From the lively opening chorus to the closing number there was not a single drag ging moment. The musical numbers were interspersed with bright hits and local take-offs which Invariably brought down the house. C. M. Thomas was interlocutor and Messrs. Cochran, Bonham, Ager and Wolters were endmen, and all did themselves great credit. A five-piece orchestra, which to gether with the musical program were under the direction ot A. S. Ames, furnished music and accom panied the vocal numbers. The show opened with a rousing full chorus by the company, the next musical number being "Silvery Moon," sung by Mr. McPhail. with orchestral accompaniment and full chorus. Mr. McPhail has a fine voice and sang well. He responded to a hearty encore. Mrs. H. W. Frame sang "Way Down South" and responded to an encore with 'Suwanee River." Mrs. Frame has a beautiful soprano voice and shows fine culture. Following some very laughable dialogue the Elks Quartet from Ash land sang "Everybody Two-Step," responding to a hearty encore with "Poo' Lillie Lamb." Miss Kirkpatrick sang "Valley of Broken Hearts" well and responded to an encore by repeating the chorus. In this as in nearly every number the entire company joined in the chorus. "My Little Blue-Eyed Baby," by Mr. Cochran, brought down the house and he responded to an encore with "Have You Seen My Dog Ryer?" which also proved a side-splitter. The Phoenix mixed quartet, con sisting of Messrs. and Mesdames Frame and Sheets, sang "Hush-a-Bye-Baby," which was received with great applause. "Jungle Moon," sang by Mr. Bon ham, was heartily received and en cored. Mrs. J. F. Hart sang "Mammy Song" very sweetly and was also en cored heartily. The Elks Quartet sang "When I Waltz WTith You," responding to a hearty and enthusiastic encore with the medley "Suwanee Rose." The quartet made a decided hit in both their numbers and the people of Tal ent will be glad to hear them again. "Old Black Joe" was sung by Mr. Frame in a manner that marked hlra one of the best bass singers in the valley, and was heartily encored. A rousing chorus by the full com pany closed the entertainment and everyone went home more than sat isfied with the evening's entertain ment. Much credit is due to all who par ticipated, and especially to Messrs. Ames and Thomas, who drilled them, Mr. Ames in the music and Mr. Thomas in the joke stunts, which latter were all hard on the buttons. Among those present from Ashland were Dr. and Mrs. F. II. Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. M. E. Brlggs, Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Stone, Mr. and Mrs. B. R. Greer, Mr, and Mrs. C. F. Greer, Miss Vivian Greer, Miss Edna Neil, Hessrs. Norrls, Enders. Strickland, Hart and Talcott. TALENT NEWS ITEMS. Emmett Beeson has nearly recov ered from his recent sick spell and Is now able to attend to business. He was at Ashland between trains Tues day. The Polk directory man was In Tal ent this week gathering information for the Talent department of the JackBon County Directory. Miss Marian Hodgson was the guest of Miss Margaret Ames Tues day evening and attended the min strel show. A. P. Adams was down from Ash land on business Tuesday. Mlsg Bess Cox of Hilt, Cal., visited Mr. and Mrs. Bert Daugherty the past week. T. F. Frame, a Jackie on the U. S. battleship Philadelphia, dropped into town Tuesday to call on II. W. Frame and family. He saw their name In the Jackson County Directory and thought he would find out if they were able to trace any relationship, but they were not. Vanderslulg & Burgan this week purchased of S. A. Carpenter, who in turn purchased of J. F. Bell, the lot just north or the alley north of the Ames building, fronting on the same street. They state that they bought the lots as an Investment but may build later. New Furniture Has Arrived The new furniture for the I. O. O. F. hall has arrived and is in place. It Is certainly fine and would be a credit to any lodge room In the val ley. It is in the mission style, of oak with maroon leather upholstery. The new furniture for the Ames rooms also arrived and two of the rooms have been furnished. They will compare favor&bly with any ho tel rooms in the county in point of furniture and many traveling men say they will stop at Talent over night when the rooms are ready. TALENT SCHOOL NEWS. The Olympic Society met Friday afternoon and rendered a literary program which was listened to by nearly all of the fifth and sixth grades and by about fifteen parents. The following selections were ren dered: Song By the School Stories of Lincoln ... Stella Coleman Essay, "Longfellow". .Bonita Taylor Paper, "Industrial Work" Ralph Bowman Stories about Washington Clarence Colemun Essay, "Tea" Henry Pace Anecdotes George Rawley Recitation, "Warren's Address".. Carlton Morse Vocal solo Winifred Lester Debate, "Resolved, That Grant was a better General than Lee." Af firmative, Elton Beeson and Lucy Wlthrow. Negative, Ava Holt and Angle Bell. The judges decided the debate in favor of the affirmative. The Community Club met at the school house Friday afternoon and discussed the matter of holding a fair at Talent next fall. A number tpoke of the industrial work being under taken throughout the state and of the importance of forming a boys' and girls' industrial club in the school so that the work might be taken up In a systematic way. At a meeting of the Parent-Teacher division of the Community Club held during the week two subjects of considerable importance were dis cussed and committees were appoint ed to carry on the work successfully. One of the committees, of which Mrs. C. W. Holdridge was appointed chair man, was to find out the necessary playground apparatus needed at the school house and to secure aid in putting the same In shape for use. Mrs. Holdridge and Miss Groshong, who has charge of the manual train ing classes, expect to go into the mat ter in detail and find out frcni out side sources what can be secured at little exepnse. Mrs. W. R. Bagley was appointed chairman of the other committee, which has for - object the beautifying of the grounds imme diately surrounding the school house. The services of about fifteen strong boys were secured Saturday and In a very short time the ground had beeil spaded and manure applied. The boys were invited to a warm dinner consisting of chicken pie, gravy, pota toes, pickles, coffee, cake, etc. It is needless to say that they did justice to the entire course. Mesdames Bag ley, Seaman, Lester and Ager assist ed In making the affair a success. The boys are deserving of much credit for the spirit with which they entered into the work of beautifying the public building. Vines, shrub bery, etc., have been ordered nnd will be planted as soon as they ar rive. Mr. Beeson contemplates hav ing the greater part of the grounds back of the building plowed this week, after which hedges will be planted, trees set out, playgrounds and driveways will be established. Recognized Advantage. You will find that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has recognized advan tages over most medicines in use for coughs and colds. It does not sup press a cough, but loosens and re lieves it. It aids expectoration and opens the accretions, which enables the system to throw off a cold. It counteracts any tendency of a cold to result in pneumonia. It contains no opium or other narcotic, and may be given to a child as confidently as to an adult. For sale by all dealers. TALENT 8. I.

Here is one way: take the can of a low priced powder in your hand and read the ingredient clause upon the back label. The law requires that if the powder contains alum that fact must be there stated. If you find one of the ingredients named alum, or sul phate of aluminum, you have found an alum caking powder. There is another and a better way. You don't have to know the names of the alum powders. Use Royal Baking Powder only; , that assures you a cream of tartar powder, and the purest and most healthful baking powder beyond question. WAG X Ell CREEK ITEMS. F. E. W.
