THE Y. M. C. A. RECEPTION.
The reception by the Y. M. C. A.
to the citizens of !North Platte at
Keith's hall Friday evening was
very largely attended, the audience
beins: estimated at fully 400. The
temperature of the room was such
cause some
the exercises were of a very enter
taining nature and the people were
unmindful of the heat. The pro
gramme rendered was not exactly
as had been prepared, several num
bers. being cut out in order to give
Prof. Clemmons a place, and was
somewhat more formal than orig
inally intended.
mi .
jLiie programme opened witn a
selection by the Gordon silver cornet
band, followed with a duet by Mes-
dames Stoddard and Hinman which
was well rendered. Miss Nellie
Hartman recited in a creditable
manner, and the Lutheran choir
sanjr an anthem very nicely. Prof.
Clemmons, president of the Fre
mont Normal school, was then in
troduced and spoke for about forty-
five minutes on the subiect "What
if I Could?" The Professor is
very entertaining talker and pleased
and interested the audience. This
was followed with a solo by Mrs.
Doolittle in which that lady proved
that she possesses an excellent
voice. Miss Eoehne entertained the
audience with a recitation and the
Catholic choir sang an anthem very
well. Secretary Hollingsworth
made a brief address and the audi
ence was then invited to partake of
lemonade and cake whichwas serv-
pri in the Y. M. C. A. rooms by the
ladies' auxiliary. About 200 ac
cepted the invitation and were
seated around small tables hand
somely decorated with flowers.
This part of the programme proved
very enjoyable. Probably more
would haye remained for refresh
ments had it not been for an ap
proaching storm. The reception
was a success throughout.
For sale, a good heavy work team.
