A Treat in Store.
: It is now definite seitled that
Hickory Camp No. 1$, Woodmen
of the World, will present' that
popular temperance play, l4The
Social Glass," in the opera house
duriug the latter part of next
month. The Woodmen have had
this matter in view for some time
and in selecting a play it was the
desire of the order to present
something that would add to the
moral good of the community.
This play has the endorsement of
the press and pulpit and is said to
be one of the finest temperance
pieces ever written. The play is
in live acts and requires nine
characters, six male and three
female. A strong cast will be se
lected and our people may expect
a treat when "The Social Glass" is
presented. - ;
