FESTIVAL PROCEEDS GO TO CHARITY Arrangements between Local Guara.iors and Washington Management Whereby Half of Profits are to go to Masonic Orphanage at Oxford SEASON TICKETS ON SALe A special arrangement, has been made between the local Rooster Festival Committee and the Washington management, by which it has been unanimously agreed to run the Festival for! the benefit of the Oxford Masonic Orphanage. This arrangement will result in a contribution of some magni tude to that worthy cause if the patronage of the Festival runs to the figures expected and which seem reasonable in view of the large advance sale of season ticket? that has already been made. Should the seating capacity of the Opera Houses be sold up. even tit the low price of the season ticket, which amounts to only 'Si cents a performance for grown people and about 15 cents a performance for children, the share in the profits which the guarantors here will be able to turn over to the Orphanage will j be more than one hundred dollars, i On account of this benefit many of the guarantors are in- j creasing their subscriptions for j season tickets and it is expected that the large body of Masons! here will influence the sale of j many more tickets. I The educational value of the! Festival and its strong and at tractive program will make the Festival a success anyway; the1 added inducement to patronize the Festival and by so doing help a most worthy cause, should cause every seat in the house to be sold. The local guarantors are ('. A. Wye he, S. F. Patterson, W. I.. Long, Dr. F. H. Adkins, .1. M. Jackson, R. S. Webb, Robert West, A. L. Robertson, H. F. Cherry, .!, 11. Matkins, Dr. F. G. Jarmati, M.
