A movement is foot to obtain a
lyceum course of lectures and en¬
tertainments for Toccoa for next

tion and entertainment.
We learn that the negroes are
firguring upon starting a paper in

stage curtain for the new school
auditorium. The program which
will be published in next week’s
paper, will consist of readings and
vocal and instrumental solos,duets,
quartetts. Aside from the fact
that the program will furnish suf¬
ficient entertainment to repay one
for going, the proceeds will go to
a very worthy object, indeed, to
one in which we are or should be
all interested, so it is hoped that a
lull house will greet the evening’s
entertainers.
