what ~ Is aud How it Can be Arranged
with Much Success.
The suggestion that some enterprising
society Of town take up a Kirmess for series
Of benefits during the coming winter and a
promise to dwell more fully on the nature Of
a Kirmess has created more interest than the
HERALD anticipated, and while interest is
awakened it has been deemed wise to tell of
the Kirmess without further delay. 1t is
really a fair and series of entertainments on
an elaborate scale From fifty to two
hundred and fifty young people may take
part in it and can easily be trained for the
entertainment within comparatively short
time Whorover the Kirmess has been tried
it has proved wonderful success and in
Robbins opera house would be well suited
for Kirmess. Around the end Of the dane
ing floor the usual booths could be arranged
Then the secret of Kirmess would begin,
These booths and all unsighty places would
be decorated by experienced hands. The
decorations would be exceedingly brilliant
and look as if they cost "a pile Of money
while in fact they would cost compare
lively nothing. The cheapest materials are
used The secret is in the blending Of the
ooors and unique methods of arrangement.
Then the entertainment Of the Kimess
comes 1t consists of pretty pageants,
Japanese, cymbal, harvest, flower tarantella,
matador, fishers hornpipe minuet and long
list Of other dances, with tableaux, and all
who take part in them are dressed in the
costumes of all nations. These costumes,
like the decorations Of the hall and booths,
are dazzling in effect, and like them cost
very little, as it is the experienced hand
which put them together, and not the
materials which make the effect. The
Kirmess is controlled by a copywnght and
can only be given by license Of the owners.
Should any society in town con-
clude to try it communication with the lady
holding the copywright may be opened by
securing the address from the HERALD. II
usually takes about three weeks to drill the
young people selected to take part in the
Kirmess, hence negotiations for it must begin
early. lady undertakes to take charge o
the drilling and arrange all the details, in
aluding decorations and costuming for 6
stated sum or a percentage Of the receipts
from the entertainments, not a percentage on

The public school officials were content to

arbor day is glorious one and one which

Shenandoah celebrated It in a loyal manner.
Children gathered in front Of the school
buildings and planted lovely young trees
which were to grow and some fine day throw
their foliage-laden limbs over the play
grounds. But month or two after arbor
day the stems and branches were found pro-

goats and the trees which escaped the on

These fine autumn days bring life and
energy to a man, and could they be continued,
one would not care for summer or for winter.
Here in Shenandoah, the autumn is the
best part of the year offspring, Shenandoah
has none. Between cold weather and rain,
the spring months are over before they have
really commenced, and then comes summer.
But in autumn, is when life is really worth
the living in Shenandoah. The air is crisp
and clear, bracing and life giving, while the
sun just tempers the wind enough.
