Institute Notes.
Ono gentleman who had attended
every institute in the state said that It
was the most enthusiastic meeting that
has been held.
The attendance was far beyond all
expectations, and Prowers county feels
very kindly towards neighboring ooun-
ties for their good representation.
The REGISTER has q stenographic re-
port of all Of the proceedings Of the in
stitute, and the important points dis
cussions and answers will be published
in subsequent issues.
Many glowing tributes were paid BY
visiting strangers to the intelligence and
enterprise Of our farmers, and the hos
pitslity Of our people. Whom the peo-
pie Of Prowers county stand together ~
they did, success is always assured.
The church was crowded TO overflow
ing with enthusiastic and interested
participants, yet the very best order
prevailed. In fact the entire program
was carried out promptly and smootly.
and Hon. G. w. Butler established the
fact that the selection Of chairman wss
an excellent one.
The dance with which the institute
ended on Wednesday evening vas rsslsd
up for fun aud didn't unwind antil
about 2 O'Clock ON Thursday morning.
The attendance was very large and
sound of revslry" prevailed. The cheer
full, capricious toslet moved nimbly over
the floor to the music Of HeAton's or
orchestra aud every one had . great
good time.
That the committee on banquet did
their duty was manifested BY the result
Of their work. The entire management
of the banquet was perfect and very sue
cessful Everybody contributed liberal
ly Of the best in the land. Many COM
pliments were passed. on tho tasteful ar
rangsment Of the tables and the good
service in waiting ON the 600 guests Of
the evening.
Gladly would we lead our readers into
the realms of music that held sway at
the institute, il We only knew the differ
euce between q soprano and basso OF
the profundo-est kind. We would like
to tell them Of the revels Of melody in
dulged in by the Cactus club, the echo
ing. lingering harmony OF the Alfalfa
quartstte, the elysisn mslodio fields
which the glee club gleefully rosmed,
aud OF the seductive strains from Prot.
Davis violin. But our musical education
was deplorably neglected in our great
grandfather's childhood days. % they
must take it all for granted II they did
not hear, and their absence II their own
