Met at the Beautiful City .oG'
+ .as Adrian. y: ..si:ss \
The editorial meeting at Adrian
last Tuesday was one of thepleasant-
est and most profitable sessions the
association has ever held. The peo-
pie of our sister city spared nothing
to make the meeting agreeable and
long to be remembered by the
visitors. A carriage drive about townn"
was the first on the program, and
we had an opportunity of seeing
more of the city than ever before.
We doubt ifthereis is town in the
state the sane size of Adrian that
can show as much enterprise. Its
public and private buildings are,
monuments of industry, thrift and
enterprise: Electric lights and water !.
works are being put in which will
give the town a really citified appear
ance. The meeting was held at the :
opera house, President E.. C. Hunt
ington presiding. The exercises
opened with music by the doublas
quartette, followed by an able address
from the president Miss Mamie
Thompson gave vocal solo-O Bird
of Joy. Hon. A. Schaefer spoke on
the subject of Partisanship and
Patriotism of the Press. Being
something of a partisan himself Mr..
Schaefer handled the subject admir-
ably. Papers were read by Miss
Perry, of the St. Peter Journal, Max
H. Voels of the Luverne News, G. S.
Eastwood of the ADVANCE and w. r.
Edwards of the Tracy Republican.
Gertie Schaefer delighted the audi
ence with a solo-The Widow. Mrs.
A. Schaefer also favored the CON-
pany with solo. Hon. H. G. Day,
of the Albert Lea Standard, president
of the state association, was present
and made speech teeming WITH
good points. H. J. Miller of the
Luverne Herald, Senator Frank Day
of the Fairmont Sentinel, Will Wells
of the Alton Democrat and Mr.. Cas-
we'll of the Sibley Tribune made
speeces that were of interest to the
craft and to the public. The crown
ing feature (of course) was the splen-
did banquet ats the H0tel sSlade. at
|NHicif felif d ii d ~
present. The after-dinner speeches
were good; the principle addresses
were delivered by Mayor Melick and
President Huntington.
Great credit is due Brother King,
of the Democrat, for the splendid
work he did in the management of
the affair-he will always have the
prayers of the association.
The newly elected officers are:
j. E. King, President.

Prof. Sims Lecture.

An audience Of about 200 people
listened to Prof Sims lecture Friday
evening at the Opera House. Mr.
Sims is large well appearing man and
a good talker, tho not what we cal
eloquent. He talked steadily for two
hours and was not as severe on the
Catholics in his talk as he was reported
to be at Kaukauna. We think the
Professor has imagined huge "bug-
bear" in the Catholic church so long
that he now really believes that il
exists there. He seemed to have it in
for the Irish more than the Catholics
We can really see no good reason why
such lectures will not only prove bene-
fetal in the end, for Catholics will be
better patrons Of their church, aud
members of the A. P A. will not be
any different than they now are unless
the Catholics are offensive. Only 8
few Catholics were present in which we
thought they exhibited excellent
judgment. Those present listened
attentively and went away better
Catholics than ever.

The firm of Will Gross & Co. Centralia,
are becoming widely known as "Hust-
lers." Nearly every person in the
south half Of Wood County is familiar

solicitors who make regular trips
throughout the twin cities taking orders
for groceries, flour and feed. They
engaged Messrs. Charles Gotchia and
George Frechette, two honorable young
men who are favorably known and well
liked. This firm have five men in theil
employ and are doing rafting bust
ness which is gradually increasing
They believe in advertising and make
judicious use of it. Mr.. Will Gross
spends about ten days each month
selling -four by the car load in cities Of
our Immediate vicinity. The past week
he sold two car loads and half.
The REPORTER takes pleasure IL

Our Grand Rapids Neighbors.

When the o'clock train on the Green
Bay road arrived Thursday afternoon,
upwards of one hundred and forty peo-
pie from The neighboring cities of Grand
Rapids and Centralia aighted, to take
part In or witness the spectacular pro-
duction of "Michael Strogoff' by the
young people Of the twin cities. Most
of the visitors found accommodations
at the Curran House, where a telephone
message had been received ordering sup
per for an even hundred. Some. on
account of the large crowd stopping
there, went to other hotels, while others
were the guests of friends. The Grand
Rapids brass band accompanied the
party, and rendered a number of
pleasing selections on Main street. At
7:40 o'clock many chairs in the Rink
were occupied, and at $50 o'clock when
the curtain went up, there was standing
room only. The play throughout was
successfully rendered, and the audience
was highly appreciatve. Among the
number of dramatic and musical
entertainments the young people Of
the twin cities have so ably given here,
none can cope with the success of
Michael Strogoff. The participants are
certainly entitled to much credit for the
able manner in which the entertain
ment was given, and many of the parts
were rendered in a manner equal to
professional players. Many who were
present pronounce it the best local
talent attraction they have ever wit
messed. Their costumes were very
fine, and in every appointment the
play was complete success. During
the evening their orchestra, which like
their band is exceptionally fine, pleased
the audience with number of their
best musical selections. After the play
a social hop was enjoyed by all who
cared to remain, and few hours were
very pleasantly spent. The special
train which conveyed the visitors home
departed at 80 ock.-Stevens Point

schools.

Frank L. Tibbits was born September
IS, 1916, in the picturesque little village
Of Andover on st. Johns river in the
province Of New Brunswick, and is
consequently a Bluenose. Was reared
on farm and received a common
school education. Like Henry Ward
Beecher he did not like the way his
scythe hung, so hung it up on tree at
the age Of twenty and has not taken it
down since.
He spent ten years in general store
and dealing in spruce logs in his native
town, and has had hankering after
logs and lumber ever since. He came
west in 1878, locating in Grand Rapids,
Wis, where he entered the employ of
Wharton Bros, Of Appleton, taking
charge of their Office, yard and planning
mill in Centralia, remaining with them
five years until they sold their Vesper
property which was the source of
supply to the Centralia yard. He then
bought the planning mill and yard at
Centralia and operated it four years
and sold out to J. E. Ingraham in 1887.
Then entered the employ of the Wilbur
Lumber Co., with whom he still
remains as manager and general
purchasing agent.
Mr., Tibbits, during the sixteen years
he spent in Wisconsin, has devoted his
entire time to the lumber business,
especially handling the manufactured
product, and while he is modest in his
claims as to his mastery of the business,
is one of the best judges of lumber and
the shrewdest buyers that search the
Wisconsin forests for stock. He is a
we'll known and welcome visitor to the
mills, and is buyer who is not afraid
to call at the same place second time,
as, while he is extremely loyal to his
employers and works actively for their
interests, he does business fairly and
honestly with all those he has to meet
His family consists of wife, three
sons and one daughter. His oldest son
Fred is travelling in the old world-now
in Egypt. His second son Heber is
attending the State University at
Madison, now in his Senior year. The
youngest son Charlie and his sister
Maude are at home attending the High
School. His beautiful home on the
brow Of the hill is the scene of many
festivities and place where his friends
are always welcome.

F. |. TIBB|TS MAYOR.
A Worthy Man TO Hold the Highest
Office in the Gift of the People.

1t gives US great pleasure to note the
fact that Frank c. Tibbits will serve the
people Of Grand Rapids the coming
year as Mayor. He was elected with
out Opposition-an indication of the
high esteem in which he is held in
this city. He has served the city as
alderman from the old second ward, in
which position he proved his value to
the community. Young, active, ener-
getic, he was firm believer that the
city government should be conducted
the same as his own private business
carefully, economically, but well. He
still holds this opinion. Like his
predecessor, Mr.. T. A. Taylor, he will
be in favor of Improvements and
good government. He has also been
an efficient member on the school
board and has always taken great
interest in the welfare of our public
schools
