TO GIVE MUSICAL FANTASY-

Local Talent to Render Program On or About December 7. At a meeting of the charity board arrangements were completed for the presentation of the successful musical fantasy “Fi-Fl of the Toy Shop,’’ in the opera house on or about December 7. The production, which is a well known and popular one, will be given under the management of John H. Rogers of Ohio, who makes a specialty of high-class" amateur affairs. Mr. Rogers and his associates have a reputatiom throughout the country of many novel and successful presentations of amateur theatricals made under their direction. “Fi-Fi of the Toy Shop” is one of their best. It has been staged a great many times elsewhere and always with splendid success. Committees were formed, chaperones appointed, etc., and preparations for the coming event will soon begin in earnest. The participants will be drawn from the best musical and histrionical talent available, the entire cast and chorus being local thespians who for the most part have won previous laurels. The time ■of .rehearsals will be announced later.
