R. has given up the hall in the Odd Fellows building, as the three remaining members who are able to be out, cannot go so far, and they did not feel that it was right to keep the hall which the Odd Fellows had kindly given them the use of for the last few years, when the order might get some income from it.

They cannot go to the town hall on memorial day, but there are to be special exercises in school to take the place of an address on Memorial day, early in the afternoon, the Post and people will meet in the cemetery where probably there will be something more than usual.

Friday night the Hampton town hall echoed with laughter caused by the performance of the Men's club play, "The Dutch Detective." It was hard to tell any of the men when they came on the stage as their make-ups were all so individual and so clever. Mr. John Cummings in the title role was very effectively dressed and played the part well. He delivered his funny lines in a manner that brought forth screams of delight. Mr. William Gilpatrick, as Plunk Jarleck and Mr. Wallace Philbrook as Hortensey Smatters, both escaped from the asylum, made the audience feel that seeing things was really so. Mr. Sam Brown portrayed the police force of Hampton Falls to audience feel that seeing things was really so. Mr. Sam Brown portrayed the police force of Hampton Falls to perfection. Mr. Warren Clark played the part of Augustus Coo the newly wed, who had eloped with Gladys Howler-Coo. Gladys was a very stunning bride as portrayed by Mr. Ralph Johnson. The howls of her father, Major Hannibal Howler, taken by Mr. George Philbrook could be heard all over town. Mr. Harold Noyes was a powerful Katrina Kraut and an able protector of her man, the Dutch Detective. Mr. Bruce Fall was a very coquettish Miss Araminta Sourdrops, who lost her Jabo after waiting sixty years, but gained the Major. The lunch counter in the waiting room of the Hampton Falls railroad station, where the scene of the play takes place, was presided over by Miss Ambrosia McCarty, the blond queen. Mr. Walter Clark, in his part kept the audience guessing as his portrayal of the "I Should Worry" type was so well acted. Mr. Cummings besides taking the leading role also coached the play and he and the Men's club may feel quite well repaid for their efforts, as it was a great financial success, as well as a great laugh maker.
