At the regular meeting of the Clio Literary Society Tuesday evening the members were well pleased by the spirit and quality of the work done by the men taking part on the program.
T.R. Ruston gave a reading, “The Gobblin’ Goose,” in a most entertaining manner.
J.L. Foster pictured “Dad’s Stenographer” in all her humorous postures. This number provided much amusement for the Society. H.L. Barney gave a brief account of current events, which showed he is a reader of wide range.
F.D. Ballard read Bryant’s “Thanatopsis” very emphatically. Mr. Ballard also gave interesting facts about Bryant’s life.
G.A. Pearce sang a song suggested by Dr. Wicker for a college song. The Society almost adopted this song.
The judges declared T.R. Ruston the best orator of the evening.
