Mr. David B_ Gally is being pre- sented this season by Mr. A. W. Cross in Mr. Walker Whiteside’s brilliant comedy 1n three acts, ‘“‘We are King.” Equipped with a superb company, rich costumes and correct scenery, this attraction has proved to be of great excellence, and merits the appre- ciation that has been accorded Mr, Gally and company. The Farmers Institute. that was held in the Village hall on Wednesday was the best and most largely attend- ed that we have ever had here and no doubt would have been even more largely attended-if it had not occurred on the day of the first snow storm. There were a goodly number of en- tertaining speakers here to entertain the farmers and their wives, and far from being the least of these was our own Professor McGuire. At noon dinner was served to all, a donation from the business men of the town. It is a most hopeful sign of the times for our citizens to see the increase display © along agricultural __ lines and attive interest should be taken to encourage such meetings. Mr. David B. Gally, who 1s starring this season, under the management of Mr. A. W. Cross, will appear in Mr. Walker Whiteside’s comedy success “We are King.” Of this delightful comedy, the Dayton, Ohio, Herald, of May 14th, 1907, had the following tosay: “One of the most delightful romantic plays ever seen in the city was artistically rendered yesterday at the National, to an enthusiastic audi- ence. “We are King” depicts a novel series of events, some ‘strong acting and refreshing love scenes.
