shipped in carload lots, the organiza-
tion to be known as the Parker County
Fruit & Truck Growers' Exchange, it
wiU be decided definitely as to wheth-
er the organization will be ineoriK)-
rated or not Saturday' afternoon, at
which time it is expected lo perfect
the permanent organization. It Us
said by those in a position to know,
that the fruit and truck crops this
year will exceed anything known in
the county before, and unless there is
co-operation between the producers,
no market can lie had for the output.
It is proposed also to operate a small
but adequate- canning department,
where the surplus, or unmarketable
produce can be, canned, and thereby
bring in a profit absolutely lost oth-
erwise. Much enthusiasm fas shown
by those present, and a niqe number of
shares were subscribed for. The
shares in the Exchange will be held
at $10 the share, each member re-
ceiving back in dividends from the
Exchange for his produce, lie it large
or small, *in ‘the. samp, ratio as tlie
other. By shipment in car lots, those
who have onlyj a small amount of pro-
duce to contribute, will receive the
benefit of freight rates the same as
tfi^ larger grower. It is the most feas-
ible proposition that lias ever been
put np to the small trucker that we
have ever known, and should bccqme
the best dividend payer. It is said
that there are 10,000 acres of old red
sand hills in Parker county that will
raise the most luscious fruit that can
lie produced anywhere, and it only
ii9eds to lie demonstrated to prove
this assertion. The following'is jhe
heading of Che subscription list, which
was adopted by those present:
“We, the undersigned, agree to take
ope or more shares of stock, in the
Parker.-County Fruit & Truck Grow-
ers' Exchange, the value of eacli share
to be $10, The object of the exchange
is for the 'purpose of getting the co-op-
eration of all the fruit and truck grow-
ers of tjie county, in disposing of and
canning all surplus and marketable
fruit and agricultural produce. The
capital stock of this concrn is to be
used for the purpose of buying ship-
ping packages, which will be sold toj
producers and members' of the Ex-
change; also to purchase cans and all
other necessary supplies for the pur-
pose of canning that part, of the pro-
duce which is unfit for shipment."
Every one interested in the organic
zation is urgently requested to be
present Saturday afternoon at one
o'clock, for the purpose of perfecting
the organization. lion. II. W. Kute-
inan and others will addiens the meet-
ing in the interest of the Exchange,
and explain the plans and the benefits
to be derived.

The portrayal of the eleven charac-
ters was wonderful. A clear, marked
distinction between voices and charac-
teristic and consistent gesture work
made confusion impossible. Gruffness
and gentleness met with sarcasm and
kindly humor and all were portrayed
with equal ability. Miss Lewis has
much stkge presence, a pleasing per-
sonality and a smooth, rich voice,
makin-g her a reader of unusual merit.
Miss Oakley proved an aide assist-
ant and delighted the people with her
songs. Her voice is clear, sweet and
sympathetic. The lullabv was artisti-
cally ■ rendered and the zest and vim
which were put into the Japanese
group elicited much applause. Her’
numbers included:
