Mr.. Brown "Came Down."

The plays put on the stage at the court
house on Tuesday evening gave much
pleasure and amusement to as large an
audience as the house would hold and
MANY. had to stand all the evening. In
an amateur performance like this all par
Elephants deserve credit for the labor and
effort put forth without reference to the
talent displayed, and in this all are
equally deserving. But the performance
of Tuesday evening was of such char
acter that all merit praise from a theatri-
cal point of view as well. Both plays,
particularly "Mr. Bob" were in them
selves full of fun and the audience we're
laughing heartily most of the time. The
make-ups were very good. Of course
this doesn't refer to the ladies, they al
ways look charming but in this line per-
haps it is not saying too much to note
that for protuberant dignity that 'Jenk-
ms" mayo Ashley was whole play in
to which Ethel Kneeshaw as the
ladies maid played splendid offset. We
hope to see our Young folks get up
another evening entertainment in the
future.

A Popular Young Officer.

County Treasurer Frank Anderson,
and Daney Carey drove over from Penn
bina Saturday evening, intending to re-
turn the next morning, but they became
storm-bound here and had to have their
vehicle driven back while they returned
on the flyer. The Andersons compose
one of the popular families over in Penn
bina county. They are among the few
Swedish people that reside in county
almost entirely populated by Canadian,
American, French and Icelandic people
and to show the non-clanishness of that
community, Mr.. Anderson's father was
elected to the office Of Register of Deeds
four successive terms while he Crank
is serving his second term as treasurer.
He is hardly % years of age but he
earns his s., 900 year as we'll as any Of
the other county officials and the people
think he is all right-and he is too.-Hal-

different ways to solve it Was ia ked ov-
