Each participant did her part well. t
I do not think anyone could have been
chosen to carry out the parts any
better. The married ladies sunprised
the audience by their operatic skill. A I
small admission fee of 10 and 20 cents I
was charged. , I
Immediately after the play a num
ber of boxes were sold which brought I
a neat sum, The object of the play
(nd box supper was to finish paying
for the Este organ which has recent
ly been purchased. The total amount
of $63 was raised and the church as
a whole feels very grateful to the par- 1
ticipants of the play as well as to the
contributors of the boxes for lifting
the debt on the organ.
Mr. 1W. L. Walker added very much
to the evening by playing his Grapha
nola.

Women are essentially conservative in their choice of a piano.
They prefer to know, rather than to'hope, that it will be all they
expect of it.
So, you find women, everywhere, taking pride, not merely in the
superlative merit of the Weaver, but pride in the social prestige which
attaches to it.
It is'the constant endeavor of the Weaver Company to make the
Weaver Piano more and more solidly worthy of the preference it en
aoys among the women of America,
