Signed W. B. Willert MEN PROVIDE SPLENDID ' CONCERT • The combined groups in which the Ladies' Aid of `Centralia' 'have been divided gave the third and final sup- per of the series on Tuesday even- ing in the basement of the Church. The Centralia orchestra' rendered several selections during the serving of a most bountiful and appetizing supper. This was followed . by a concert put on by the husbands of the ladies. The men showed them- selves as capable on the platform as at the table which is saying a good deal. We really feared .. that some would not be able to sing. Rev. Mr. Kitely ably filled the chair call- ing on Mr. Chas. Godbolt, of Exeter for a solo which he sang in splen- did style, followed by an equally splendid encore and again later in the evening. The ladies male quar- tette next presented themselves dressed in the latest style and fine looking ladies they were. They en- tertained partly by conversation which caused bursts of laughter`and partly by quartette selections which were exceedinngly well rendered and enjoyed. Later on the program by means of a huge home-made tel- escope and, with the aid of Mr. John Essery they looked into the future and foretold amusing and pointed happenings for the church and com- munity. A. group of young men sang a pleasing chorus and Mr. W. Smith in his best style sang a comic solo followed by an encore number in a more serious vein. A short time was taken up by lantern and screen givng announcements, comic and otherwise also pictures of some beauty spots in Ontario and scenes of local activity among the ladies of the Aid and by willing men helpers. A good view of home -butchering for the Aid at the home of Mr. Nelson Baker was shown. lir. 'Ern Hicks was heartily applauded for two Scotch songs well rendered `as usual and thorou lY enjoyed..A ch r s written by our local chorus writer, Mrs. LIyod Hodgson and sung by the men followed by an encore number of "Good Night Ladies" completed e, very enjoyable and profitable ev- ening.
