The stage is large enough for the presentation plays‘. an entertainment club is being form- ed for this purpose. The entertainment Friday evening was extremely informal in character, the visiting priests keeping the audience in an uproar with humorous stories which were told as though the speakers were among a gathering of friends in the home parlor.
