The Parowan M. I. A. Dramatic Club will present tho play "Peaceful Valley" In the Cedar Ward Hall on the night of Saturday, January 9. The company has given good satisfaction with this bill, and we feel sure that the Cedar theatre patrons will feel well paid If they attend tho performance. perfor-mance. Hcber Ilolyoak and Ella Pondloton who were married here on December 31, have been recipitents of a number num-ber of showers arranged by the young people of tho town during the last two weeks. Many useful articles wero presented to the young couple, and a pleasant time enjoyed by the guests. w m w The holidays arc over, the school children have gone back to their studies, stud-ies, people don't look so sleepy us they did when out merry making every night, and things generally are resuming resum-ing a more normal condition. Now is" the time to mako things count in the way of making 1915 tho best of all the years which have gone before it. Just what tho editor of tho local department of The Record meant last weok, in speaking of the rumor to the effect that the Parowan boys had challenged chal-lenged the Cedar hunters for a rabbit hunt, when he said the story was too prepostrous for credence is rather hard for us to figure out. No doubt he meant that as tho Parowan boys were victorious in tho last contest of this kind, they should wait for a challenge kind, they should walr for a challenge to como from the Cedar boys. Wo have been unable to find anyone who knew of such a challenge being sent. Parowan is a good town to live in, you will find no better people anywhere any-where than here, tho town is making big improvements every year, there is no healthier city in the state, tho natural advantages of our valley are rapidly growing. Don't take off your hnt to anyone when it comes to boosting boost-ing for your home town, all you havo to do is to tell tho truth. Let others know that your home is in the right place.

A very pleasant time was enjoyed on both occasions, lunch-con lunch-con being served and a number of musical selections given. Somo pretty pret-ty pieces of silverware besides a variety va-riety of dishes were presented to the young people. A crowded house enjoyed the M. I. A. play, "Peaceful Valley" in the opera house on New Year's Eve. It iB not often that wo find a play, which, according to the sentiment expressed ex-pressed by those present, pleased as many of our people as this homelike", story of New England did. Tho company repeated the play in Para-goonah Para-goonah on Thursday evening to an appreciative audience. Hon. Wilford Day, Iron county's ropresentatjvo to the Stato Legislature, Legisla-ture, left for Salt Lake last Wednesday Wednes-day going by auto to Ijund. Mr. Day will reach Salt Lake in time to mako prcparatoins for his fight for the speakership of tho house. There are several other gentlemen out for that office, but it is thought hero that ho stands a very good chanco of winning win-ning out, as he is the oldest republican, republi-can, in point of service, now in the house. |
