The contest for the Demorest gold
mAdal held at the opera house last FRI
day evening brought out a crowded
house to one OF the best oratorical con
tests ever held here. To say that the
contest was a success would not express
tit was more than success, because
it will bedhe III ans of stirring up an
interest and rivalry in oratorical con.
tests that cannot help but be very bene-
acial to the young men and women, and
to the more aged as we'll. The proceed
ings OF last Friday night brought up
the question to more than on- person in
the audience, why cannot We have
these contests oftener,' and there GER
iaiuly can be. no good reason given.
Every school district in this section
should encourage these contests for the
benefit OF the scholars. IN training the N
to appear before audiences and to be
at home on the rostrum. Besides,
the medal given is worth striving for,
for the honor Of its winning more THAI
lis inlrlnslcvalue.
The contestants each and every one,
acquitted theme mselves ably and well. and
each received hearty applause that
showed the well wishes OF the audience.
The tirst orator was MIR. Glen Cory OF
O.athe, young man Of fno presence
aud good voice, with perfect ease OF
manner ON the stage. but who was han
dicapred somewhat by the hustle and
noise Of The arriving and seating OF the
audielce. Miss Nina Merrill. also Of
Olsthe. came next with a sketch "Oid
Sospy,f which wss well rendered. Miss
Emma Ward and Corydon Williams
were the next two with selectiors in
poetry, to which they did justice. but
poetical pieces are often very hard TO
render and make effective in public
spoakiIg. Both did very well. Miss
Minnie jackson in "A Vision OF Prohi-
bition" gave rendering in clear. bell
toned voice that brought out the mean
ing very distinctly. Miss Sadie jack
sou had as her selection an extract from
an attorneys speech in defense OF u
druukurd who had committed felon-
Gus crime. which was finely rendered
with telling effect. Miss Anna Perry OF
Cedaredge was the last 10 speak. To
the Rescue the theme OF the discourse
being the all night search FOR little
child lost in tho woods. and the effect OF
the news OF the rescue as it was carried
over the immedist. country, the moral
to which was NJ II brought out. the ne
cessit! OF rescue work for the lost Young
mon OF today.
On the judges retiring for their find
ing. the male quartette sang The Old
Osken Bucket and Miss Allen OF Cedar
edge, reciied comic negro selection.
The finding OF the judges was that
Mise Sadie jackson was entitled to first
pri &c, the medal, and Glen Cory second.
