OVER $40 TO FUND Completes Course of Entertain- ments for Library Benelit HEMINGWAY'S FINE SHOWING Hinton-Verdi Concert An Enjoyable Musical Treat—*Drunks” Continue to Occupy Attention of Authorities— May Call Caucus for Xt Week. Accomplishing another splendid suc- cess, at least from an artistic and social viewpoint, the Woman's club completed its course of entertainments for the benefit of the library fund last evening when it presented the Hinton- Verdi company in the Town hall be- fore an audience which while not par- ticularly large made up in enthusiasm what it lacked in numbers. The en- tertainment was better patronized than the others in the course, prob- ably because of the introduction of dancing as a new feature of the pro- gram. This part attracted many of the younger set and was greatly enjoved. Members of the club reported today that while figures were not available it is probable that about $40 was clecared from the series. This will he added to the fund for which the or- ganization has been working hard for the past few years. The club is hope- ful of geiting sufficient money even- tually to erect a building that will be suitable for use as a public library and reading room, The townspeople are interested in the ecfforts the members are making and have been liberal in their patron- age of most of the mones ing hemes the ladies have undertaken. Last night's entertainment was one of the best of the series and it was greatly appreciated. Pietro Verdi, the onc man band, made a most favorable impression for his clever playing of several musical instruments at one time, His accordion sclections were also well received. His partner, Miss Ethel Hinton, showed ability in character delinca- | tion and the audience was enthusias- | { tic ‘over her. The couple gave a well | anced program with suflicient di sity to please all. * The ladies collected a nount from the sale of candy during the evening. considerable home-made More “Drunks’” Jailed.
