PASSION PLAY.
The Great Spectacle to Be Given at
Vinewood Next Week.

1t is a wonderful exposition and one
calculated to do a vast amount of good.
To be seen at Vinewood park all next
week.
The great reproduction of the Pas
sion Play which will be given all next
week at Vinewood appeals with unerring
force to the religiously inclined. How
magnetic and attractive the full repro
duction of the Passion Play will
prove can best be judged by the enor-
nous patronage that will be given the
spectacle at Vinewood. Thousands of
people spend money and time going to
Oberammergau, Bavaria, to see the
Passion Play presented by people
whose language they do not understand.
But next week the people of Topeka
VIII be afforded the opportunity of wit
Messing this gorgeous spectacle.
The cast of the Passion Play in
cludes Christ, his disciples PLATE, King
Herod and other famous Biblical char
acters. The spectator will realize more
of the sufferings of our Saviour in two
hours of the Passion Play" than by
years of constant studying. That it is
strong favorite with the clergy is m
disputable. for it disseminates truths
which the theologian is endeavoring to
install in the breasts of people every
day in his life The Passion Play has
been commended by clergy and laity:
words of praise from so eminent an
authority as Cardinal Gibbons are ex-
preSSiOnS of highest value.

that the future will see many perma-

on the Islands. 1t does not take
very comprehensive vision to see this,
for with a soil so fertile and fruitful
as that of the Hawaiian Islands. II
is moral certainty that certain lines
of Island productions, other than cane,
will be developed into paying propo-

1905. We are trying to reach the
800 mark for the Great Bend lodge
before January I, 1905.
A WORD ABOUT THE DECREE OF HON
OR, THE AUXILIARY TO A. o. U. W.
The Degree of Honor was orga-
nized In Kansas In January, 1888.
Kansas has about 800 lodges of the
D. of H. The Degree of Honor has
social and beneficial members COM
posed only of members of the A. O.
u. w. and their families. Any lady
can join the degree of Honor who
has a blood relative in the A. o. u,
w. lodge, between the age of Is and
As. Kansas has over 10000 mem
bers in the Degree of Honor. The
purpose is to cultivate, cooperate and
engage all in the work of the order.
The Degree of Honor issues a policy
from $500 to $4,000. 1t also has a
total disability clause in it. The ex-
pense is so comparatively light that
people of very limited income may
participate. This is the 10th month
of the year: the Degree of Honor has
only had 7 assessments this year.
Remember you can become mem
Der of the Degree of Honor and be a
social member. You do not have to
take out a policy. 1t only costs 81
to join our Degree. Why not be
come member?
Great Bend lodge of the D. of H
has so members. Let's make it 10C
before January 1st, 1904.
The D. of H. was organized ir
Great Bend in 1894, with only Il
members.
