We were told last Wednesday evening that there would be no school Thursday and we were full of wonder as to the reason. Later we were told it was on account of one the the scholars having a contagious disease in the family. The school house was thoroughly fumigated and everybody was back to school Friday without fear of catching any disease. Harold Haskin gave the news report Friday. Helen Dwinnell was absent so did not report.

Don't forget the next number on the lecture course is Jan. 26. Mr. H. L.

Cope is to speak. Marguerite Hampton and Anna Barber again entertained us last Tuesday afternoon with two duets. Mr. Walton, manager of the Belle Forde Walton Company, gave the High School a nice talk last Tuesday morning. Francis McCulloch and Kenneth Munson are to give the news report this Friday.

The foot ball boys had their pictures taken Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Rice took the pictures. Mr. Cope can hardly be labeled.

He is not merely an entertainer, nor does he claim to be a lecturer. He is realy both in one. Every entertainment is a lecture and there is a serious purpose back of all his fun. Mr. Cope's style is peculiarly his own.

He has the rare faculty of being extremely funny without insinuation or vulgarity, or descending to the province of the buffoon. With a delightful contrast of the sublime and ludicrous, he develops rare entertainment out of the absurdities, inconsistencies and excesses of human nature, taking his models from life. His lesture-entertainments are a resistless medley of unadulterated fun, solid common sense, classic beauty and magnetic pathos, all tinged with the philosophy and religion of life. During the past two seasons Mr. Cope has filled engagements in four hundred and twenty-three different cities and towns.

and during the summer months he appeared at seventeen of the leading Chautauquas. The mand for return engagements by Mr. Cope excels anything we have known in the entertainment line. He has given as high as nine return engagements to practically the same andience. It is this continued demand for return dates that has given him his soubriquet, "Maker of the Smile that Won't Come Off." His record with us indicates a popularity unequaled by any lecturer or entertainer now appearing before any American audiences, At her home home this city, at 1:45 p.

The insidents are' built on fact or reality and are therefore true to life itself, while the characters ficcitious in the story become as portrayed by sympathetic artists, distinct natural living types such as are found everywhere in the country. It is a credit to the public's taste that it takes 50 kindly to this wholesome drama of New England life.

The production is to be seen here at the Weis Opera House on Feb. 18, and the story is a clever plot ending with a genuine old Husking Bee full of new and up to date specialties. For Sale. Pure bred barred Plymouth Rock roosters large and healthy each. M.
