Dallas Players Will Present "The
Great Catastrophe" at Wag
ner's Hall Tonight.
The comedy, "The Great Catastro
phe," given for the benefit of the
library last week, was such a success
here that the manngement has decided
to take the production to Falls City
tonight A special train wilt be run
from Dallas, leaving at 6 :30 o'clock
this evening, and returning after the
play.
The players will be the same as
appeared here, except that Mrs. Louis
Gerlinger, Jr., who was originally
cast for the leading part, wjll appear
at Falls City as Violet Drew, instead
of Miss Georgia Martin, who played
the part here.
George Bennett will give his mono
logues, songs and magio fctunta, and
some excellent music will be fur
nished by a young ladies' quartette
from Dallas.
The young people give an enjoyable
entertainment, and the amusement-
loving folk of our neighbor town will
not miss it when they buy their tickets
for "The Great Catastrophe." The
play, as presented by these amateurs,
is far more entertaining than the per
formances usually given by the pro
fessional companies that visit the
valley towns, and the people of Falls
City may rest assured that no effort
will be spared to give them a pleasant
evening.
Pleasant Graduating Exercises.
Enjoyable graduating exercises
were held In Bailston last Friday
night, when eight bright boys and
girls received their diplomas, certify
ing that they had satisfactorily com
pleted the six grades in the public
school course. The Woodman Hall,
which had been handsomely decorated
for the occasion, was crowded by the
relatives and friends of the class.
The graduating essays were of a high
order of excellence, and showed the
careful training the young people
had received at the hands of the teach
ers, Mrs. H. is. Blough and Miss
Olive Williams. The members of the
class were Zalma Butler, Gladys
Chandler, Eunice Ottinger, Mattle
Garrett, Hilda Clark and Richard
Ottinger. The address to the class
was delivered by Professor H. B.
Blough, a former principal of the
school. Splendid work has been done
by the teachers and pupils this year,
as is eloquently attested by the fact
that the graduating class received the
highest grades in the county in the
eighth grade examinations. The peo
ple of Bailston have good reason to be
proud of their public school.
