NEWS OF THE DAY
Mrs. E. A. Hughston, who has been in the millinery business in Rochester for twenty-five
years, will give up the business with the close of this week and will give possession Monday to
Miss Myrtle O’Daffer. The new owner has had considerable experience and will, no doubt, meet
with the same success as did Mrs. Hughston.

ODDITY QUARTETTE [Rochester, Indiana]
* * * * * PHOTO * * * * *
The Oddity Quartette and orchestra of musical entertainers is the name chosen by a
number of Rochester artists. Those composing the organization are Fred and Walter Stevenson,
Clyde Entsminger, Harold Hendrickson, Will Hoffman, Blythe Buchanan and Ezra Jones. While
the young men have gotten together for purely social entertainment they have arranged for several
public appearances, their first date being at Leiters Saturday evening, Feb. 13. As to be seen in the
accompanying cut many different kinds of musical instruments are used during their program.
Besides the instrumental numbers, the quartette, Will Hoffman, Ezra Jones, Clyde Entsminger and
Blythe Buchanan, whose popularity is widespread, will render several selections.
The boys are putting in all their spare time practicing and if their first venture proves
successful they will probably make a circuit of the neighboring towns.

the first public appearance of the new organization and it is expected that it will make good.

NEWS OF THE DAY
The Oddity Quartette and orchestra, this city, made their initial public bow Saturday
evening in the Methodist church at Leiters. The large crowd present showed their appreciation by
repeated encores and the boys have been asked for a return engagement for March 6, which they
will probably accept.
