Feversham Tennis Club Held Concert On Friday evening last the Fever- sham Tennis Club presented their play "Safety First" to a record crowd in the school house, Feversham. Mary Ann O'Flinncrty (Pauline Clements) the Irish maid created much laughter by her many humorous speeches. Mabel Montgomery (Dot Robinson) made a real hit, particularily in her ability to sob when her hubby failed to return home, likewise her sister, , Virginia Bridger (Rose McGirr) when ! her Jerry was surpassedly ship- I wrecked. Their mother, the stately j Mrs. Harrington Bridger (Mrs. Jas. • Long) was properly horrified at her , daughter, Virginia, flirting with, as j she thought McXutt, in reality Jerry. Zeulika (Annie Robinson) the tender Turkish maiden was very fetching in her Turkish costume, and we have no doubt captivated many young hearts in the audience, as well as El- mer Flannel. Jack Montgomery (Harry Burke) the young husband. showed ability in catching butterflies when it became necessary to feign in- sanity, in order to save himself from the terrible Turk. Jerry Arnold (Clarence Alexander) his best friend proved very effective in contracting fibs to preserve Jack and himself from the righteous ire of Mabel and Virginia. Elmer Flannel (Jack Rob- inson) proved not to be so shrinking as the Turk suggested when it came to winnig the love of Zuelika. Ben Macha (Jim Davidson) very satis- factorily filled the roll of the Terrible Turk in his frantic search for his little daughter and encountered with many acidents therein. Mr. Mc- Xutt (Jim Eby) provided much laugh- ter as the defective detective, and in the end, won, as his prize. Mary .\nn O'Flinnerty. The scenery was conceded by all to be very effective and was mat- erially helped by the flowers, furni- ture, etc., which was so generously loaned. The proceeds of the evening amount- ed to $60.00 and the club wish to ex- tend a hearty vote of thanks to all I those who assisted in any way.
