Several special numbers were given by home talent in addition to the regular program of the Princess Theatre on Friday
night. Vocal solos were sung by Reba ROBERTS and Alice MAXWELL, and music was furnished by an orchestra recently organized
and composed of Mrs. Clyde LESAN, piano; H. D. PRICE, trombone; Earl THOMPSON, cornet; Chester MALLORY, clarinet;
Elnora STUDER and Helen SPURRIER, violins, and Raymond BRETZ, drum. Paul FOLLEY, of Kellerton, sang two songs in
costume and was the hit of the evening's performance.
LIBERTY - Rev. Peter PARKER has been transferred from the Tingley charge to Oklahoma and Rev. J. A. BRANSON
was sent from Oklahoma to Tingley.
The style show conducted by M. E. FREELAND at the Princess Theatre last Wednesday evening was a success in every way.
A line of coats, dresses and furs was shown by Mr. FREELAND, who was assisted by Vesper FIERCE, Mable BUTLER, Nellie
CHANCE and Margaret SPURRIER.
