The :Temperance 'drama, entitled-
"Tli'b Turn of the Tide" presented,.to
a gathering of close to five ,hundred'
people,' was a` great success in every
way.' 'T'he evenings . entertainment
was begun by presenting a farce en-
titled "Ripples" which caused rip-
ples of laughter. It was exceptional-
ly well rendered .and the crowd en-
joyed it immensely. The . Tur-n of
the Tide was received with enthus-
asm and every - part was flayed in a
pleasing and effective manner. A
great many people' are saying they
cannot hope to render 'the play any
better, and this is the highest need
of praise. The - older players made
their reputations several. years .ago
and much was expected of them,. so
the praise is naturally being given
to those who appeared for the first
time and astonished the natives by
displaying unknown talents. • Miss
Mae Clark delighted the audience by
her singing. The Exeter Orchestra
rendered effective music and a num-
ber will visit Exeter Friday evening
to'hear it the second time. The•pro-
ceeds amounted to $153.15.
