Nearing Completion.

AS the new Normal school
building nears completion it be-
comes more and more apparent
that it is far ahead of the old one
in points of convenience and utili-
ty as a school building. While
it is not SO imposing a structure
as the old one, and while the
cupola seems diminutive as COM
pared with the massive and sky
piercing tower Of the destroyed
building yet the new structure is
much larger, and more convenient
in many ways than the former.
Of course there will be no bell
which is an undisguised disap-
pointment to our citizens, and the
question is freely asked, Chow
will they get the model grades In
from the campas at school time?"
Can 1t be that this contingency
has not been provided for, or per-
chance forgottens Or has the dis
covery just been made, after all
these centuries that the time hon
ored bell is of no practical use2
Custom is changing in regard to
school bells and new buildings are
dispensing with them altogether.
AS our new school house is very
fastidious and somewhat
given to new fads it cannot be
blamed for wishing to be Sin
style" in this respect, and our
citizens must reconcile themselves
to the inevitable. The building
inside and out is thoroughly up to
date and nearly every room is be-
ing wired for electric lights. 1t is
the intention to provide the school
with dynamo in the near future
providing of course the city does
not put in an electric plant.
There will be seventeen tele-
phones in the building, an cleo
trio clock, with class bells in the
corridors. The building will be
supplied with the self regulating
heat system, bath rooms with hot
and cold water and closets. The
big fan is powerful enough to ex-
haust and refill every room with
fresh air every twenty three min
utes. The floors will all be of
hard wood and the rooms kalso-
mined in various colors, giving
a very pretty effect.
Frank Thayer will otficiate as
ianitor. He is thoroughly COM
petent being practical engineer
and electrician.

Romeo and Juliet.

A rare treat was that given by
Mr.. Norval McGregor and Miss
Waldorf at the residence of Mr..
Burhyte on Friday last.
1t was of course especially in
teresting to the citizens of River
Falls Of the older growth as they
we'll remember Mr.. McGregor as
one who grew up among them
and whose career has been always
a matter of interest to his River
Falls friends.
But apart from the personal in
terest, was that inspired by the
dramatic power exhibited by the
readers.
It was very easy for those who
have heard the play of Romeo and
Juliet, under favoring circum-
stances in theatres fitted for the
purpose in the highest style of
scenic art, to forget that the
readers were in a private parlor,
and carried away by the power OF
their art, to create in the ideal
all the surroundings which are
supposed to add so much to the
scenes they read.
It was easy to locate Juliet III
balcony listening with wrapt at
tention to the passionate words of
Romeo and just as readily could
ore imagine Romeo clinglng to
the railing of balcony gazing
with warm passion into the eyes
of his Juliet.
It was potent exemplifcation
of the power Of real art which
makes itself felt regardless of
surroundings.
We can never forget, that the
first performances Of the plays of
Shakespeare were upon a stage de-
void of scenery or stage decora-
ton, that the change of scene was
denoted by placard which told
the audience what they were to
imagine but the dramatic power
of the actors covered all defects to
their appreciative audiences, and
hence it was a treat to listen to
the impassioned tones\ OF the
readers relieved from the glare OF
foot lights and the illusions of
scenery and find that art makes
itself felt no matter what the ac-
cessories may be.
Then too it was pleasure to be
able to be so near as to watch the
facial expressions and see how
much of dramatic power there is
in silent pantomime.

Splendid.


It begins to look that way now.
After these many years of patient
forbearance our citizens have at
last woke up to the happy re-
alization of the real needs OF a
public park. The real moving
spirit in this enterprise is John
Barrett. Every body knows Mr..
Barrett to be liberal, public
spirited worker for the best inter-
ests of the city and true to his re-
cord he is now interesting himself
in this movement. Pursuant to
his invitation many of the bust
ness men met at the band stand
last night to consider the advlsa-
bility of buying fifteen or twenty
acres Immediately west of the Cas-
cade mills taking in the glen and
the beautiful grove south of 1T.
This land can be gotten very
cheap and committee was ap-
pointed to bring the matter before
the council Friday night to con-
slider it's purchase by the city for
park purposes. We confdentially
predict that the council will not
hesitate over the purchase Of this
ground, for a park, for a moment.
It is a very beautiful and pictur-
esque place, redundant in natural
scenery with shade trees and wa
ter in abundance. 1t seems in
credible to think that so romatic a
;spot should have been neglected
by the city for SO many years, but
we will now make up for this by
Transforming it into park that
will make the going burgs
about us turn green with envy.
