-- Lyceum  
              Note:  There were actually two. Each, in it's time, was usually referred to simply, as "the Lyceum."  Both featured
                           concerts, minstrel shows, plays, lectures, and benefit shows.

---  Old Lyceum (1880s-early 1890s), began as the Clinton Roller Skating Rink, originally built perpendicular
                to the road, was located on East side of South Ocean Ave., North of Terry St.  After a run as the local showplace
                (theater), the building was turned parallel to the road, the lower floor being converted to shops, the upper floor
                to apartments. 

---  New Lyceum (1890's-1910's), intended to replace and surpass the Old Lyceum, as the village showplace,
                 incorporated the former Congregational Church building, located on the N. side of on Lake St., just W.
                 of today's Reese's 1900 bar & restaurant, at today's Lake Street Apartments.  The Church had just moved to its
