termination lo cl.iKe out hi grocery
aud mercantile Hues and engage In
another Industry, presumably that of
lumbering. As to his future move
ment, further thau his desire to
clime out hi prenent business, he is
non-committal.
We regret this movement of Mr.
Douty. Forseeral years past he has
betiM our most energetic buniaess man.
He was a bustler after business aud
was probably the heaviest shipiwr iu
the county.
We sincerely hope Mr. Douty' re
tirement from the merchautlle line
will mean that he Is to engage on a
large scale in the lumbering industry
In this locality.

The cemetery association should be
reminded of the disorderly grounds
thev are keeping. It Is enough to dis
courage any one to plant flowers every
year and have horses and aroata des
troy them. Such an old brush fence
is a disgrace to any community.

Home Talent Produce In Excel
lent Manner This Comedy
Drama.
TheRet ekah lodge is attempt
ing to lift the indebtedness on
their piano, and they are doing it
by a series of entertainments.
Last Friday evening, under the
auspices of the Rebekahs, the in
teresting comedy drama, "Hick'ry
Farm," was presented to a large
audience at the, opera house. The
cast was a well-balanced one, and
the audience enjoyed an hour and
a Half of splendid amusement.
Frank Masterson, Glen Goodman
and Tommy Fitchard ably per
formed their parts, as did also
Hugh Shelley. Arthur Moore
made all laugh in the role of the
Irish alderman, and his wife, the
susceptible widow, was a character
in most of his comedy roles. Miss
Goldie Irvine, with much ability,
essayed the part of a wayward and
later repentant daughter. Some of
her work, as in the case of the
others, was of an exceedingly
creditable nature.
Mr. Willard Craven rendered a
vocal solo, as did Tom Fitchard,
between acts. Both were well re
ceived by the audience.
