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.

furniture and many traveling men
say they will stop at Talent over
night when the rooms are ready.
TALENT SCHOOL NEWS.

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.

How to Detect the
Alum Baking Powder
"Which are the alum baking powders;
how can I avoid them unless they are named?"
asks a housekeeper.
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.
