ton in the High school department.
there are III pupils, which is nearly
thirty per cent more than last years

more to enter. AS there are but nine.

Will Have Lecture Course.

The committee having charge Of the
Citizens Lecture Course is now max.
ing the final. arrangements for the
course and the last canvass for the
sale of season tickets These are for
sale at Elfstrum's drug store at 81 so
each for five numbers or SOC per mum :.
Der, reserved seats Students tickets
for the season are sold at Sl.O0. The
committee would urge those who have
not yet subscribed for tickets and who
wish to do so, to get them as soon as
possible. There is an opportunity at
the present time to get the Mozart
Symphony Club, of New York, as one
of the numbers of the course if about
twenty more season. tickets could be
sold. This is q first class concert COM
pany of national reputation and such
as q Willmar audience rarely has an
opportunity to hear. For this reason
the committee is especially desirous of
securing it and hopes that sufficient
number of tickets can be sold to in
sure the additional $50 it would re-
quire to substitute this company for
one of those now on the course, The
course will begin with the Columbian
Male Quartette Oct 10, and the sea-
son tickets subscribed will be deliv-
cred soon.
