FASHIONS FOR CHILDREN.
Blue Cottons Liked for Children s
Clothes and for Their Coats Pom
gees and Shepherd Plaids.

In color, shade of blue somewhat
deeper than the porcelain of last season
seems to be the prime favorite. 1t comes
in all sorts of wash fabrics, from a
serviceable chambray at ten cents a
yard, through the various priced mer-
cerized effects. to the best quality OF
linen. AS to choice, experienced moth
ers say that either extreme is better
than the medium-priced goods, and
very pretty effects are evolved from
the cheaper chambray stitched with
white and trimmed with bit of hand
embroidery. The most desirable OF
those little frocks are made with sep.
arate collar, guimpes or berthas. and
the handwork in white scalloping bow
knots, fleurdelis or small geometrical
| powderlings appear on these separate
| pieces.
| For all-white coats of a dressy char
acter either pongee or highly-finished
silk is employed. Very little plain taf-
fetas or corded silk is seen in coats.
The new sleeves are roomy in the arm
hole and stand out smartly, even as
lthose worn by older women. In colored
coats nothing is more desirable than
the small checks or shepherds plaid IN
black and white. The smartest checked
coats are the simplest, but they show
black stitching with straps and buttons
of black velvet A little gayer are the
same checks. piped and faced with red
and trimmed with gold buttons. Red
and white, always an effective combina-
| ton for dark children, is used this sum
mer, and gay little coats of cardinal red
silk are made with collars showing Eng
lish eyelet work. very simple stitch to
acquire, done in heavy white silk. An
other gay coat was of bright red cloth.
lined with red and white checked silk,
and finished with collar of white lace.
But the observing mother will soon re-
alize that the simpler styles are the
smarter this season. and she will not be
appalled, at the prospect of excessive
trimming
Fancy straws, in quaint poke shapes
and trimmed simply with flowers, are
in vogue, and soft effects are secured By
facing these hats with wee shirrings
or triple founce, the sheerest of habutai
silk being used for this purpose.

1t Was the agreement that Sioux

Mitchell both ways. but when the
transportation came it was only for
one way and the Mitchell hoys de-
clined to be buncoed again us they

they would profit by that lesson. 1t

made to play a baseball game with
the Sioux Falls high school and our
fellows went owe there only 10 find
that the game had been called Off, of
which the Mitchell team had receiv-
ed no notification, and the Sioux
Falls lads refused to pay the expense
Of the team back to Mitchell, and it
had to be made up here. So when
Sioux Falls sent only half OF the ex-
pense money to Mitchell our fellows
were justified in taking the safe side
OF the proposition.

The two young fellows, John Bell

for the robbery of the postofice at
LOOMS, had their hearing in the
federal court Thursday. They rea-
liked they we're up against it. for the
stamps were found in the house OF

robbery occurred. and they pleaded
guilty.

John M. Bell and Arthur G.. Wal

are mere boys and as they were
anxious to have the trying ordeal
through with, sentence was at once
imposed.
When asked by Judge Garland if he
had anything to say, Waldorf stated
that he vas sorry for what he had
done, and expressed the belief that
It would be a good lesson to him.

TOLD ABOUT the COLLEGE.
President Nicholson Made College
Matters Plain Before the
Methodist Conference.

The Watertown Public Opinion
gives the following report Of the adj
dress of DR.. Thomas Nicholson made
before the Methodist Conference at
Watertown Thursday evening:
Following the address Of Bishop War
e Thursday evening Rev.. j.. w.
Taylor, presiding, introduced DR..
Thomas Nicholson, president of Dak-
0ta Wesleyan university at Mitchell.
DR.. Nicholson told the conference
many interesting things about the
Methodist school and the work it is
doing.
The school. has today the largest
enrollmentsi in its history. 1t has an
increase over last year Of forty-two
per cent, and in the college classes
of fifty per cent. Contrary to plans,
it, was necessary to complete the an
mex to Memorial hall, and even at
that every available room is occupies
and the president has teen compell-
ed to turn students. away.
DR.. Nicholson said that he was in
timately acquitted with the schools
of Iowa and familiar with those Of
Nebraska, Minnesota, and North
Dakota, and he stated that in his
opinion there is not a stronger, more
adaptable college west Of Chicago.
The problem OF finance is the
greatest one with which the school
has to wrestle. He presented facts
and figures showing how much the
school is doing, how many students
1T is instructtng, and the amount Of
money it has available each year, an
n no0VprH ho1Ner chat n~~a~vo.$nk0 rS
for state schools. He made an appeal
to The conference asking for concert
ed effort to create a larger vision and
greater gifts for the school.
He spoke OF the work that the col
students in attendance. They go in
Germans. Swedes, Danes, Hebrews,
French, English. and all come out
Americans. In Mitchell there are
students of no less than fifteen de-
nominations enrolled. The college
disturbs no man in his faith, but
makes a systematic effort all the time
to make Christian men and women.
: DR.. Nicholson gave an extended
comparison Of the secular college and
Of the state institution, both from q
moral standpoint and from a financial
standpoint. He closed with a strong
earnest peroration showing how the
test OF an institution is the type OF
men and women turned out. He said
that in raising 1926, 600 to liquidate
the debt against Memorial hall he
had been disappointed and had been
able to raise but a little over SO, 600.
He asked the conference to make ar
earnest effort to help him raise the
balance of SI5. 600 before January
Of the coming year.

LECTURE COURSE OPENING
1t Was an Auspicious Affair and Wa
Attended by the Largest of
Audiences.

The immense audience which at
tended the opening number of the pop
ular lecture and concert course Mon
day evening at the city ball auditor
ium must have been gratifying to the
managers OF the curse and likewise
to The members of Mr.. Kryl's concert
company, and the nature Of the en-.
tertainment was. worthy of the splen-
did crowd of people which was there
assembled. Practically every seat on
the lower floor was occupied aud
there were but few vacant seats in
the gallery.
1t was a strong combination Of
musical and elocution talent that
was presented in the concert and the
audience went into raptuIes over the
playing OF Mr.. Kryl on his cornet,
encorinR him again and again. Miss
phoebe Roberts. the reader, shared
the honors Of the evening with the
famous cOrnet player and she was re-
called twice. The playing Of Mr.
kryl is as finished a piece Of work
that we have " heard, and in fact
his execution was far superior to any.
thing we have heard, not excepting
the great Levy. The tones he pro-
duced we're clear and brilliant, and
highly colured, while his sustaining
power was something marvellous.
Miss Roberts presented a varied line
OF selections in which she appeared
to an excellent advantage. She
speaks with an abandon in her man
ner that leaves out stage mannerisms
and makes her work all the more
enjoyable. Miss Heinrich, the con-
t.alto, possesses a beautiful voice OF
wide range and many Of her tones
are rich in color. Her singing OF
Raff's "Ave Maria'', was her best
work and her voice found many ad-
mirers in it. Mr.. Heinrich, the bar
itone, vas fairly acceptable, as a
soloist. but in his duets with Miss
Heinrich, his voice was much more
effective. The next..attraction is the
Rogers rilley Recital Co., which
will appear Nov. 20. The succeeding
attractions on the course are all good,
i'm fact 1T is the strongest that has
ever been presented in Mitchell, anc
few, if any, equal it. west OF Chicago.

held a half hour early so that Miss
Roberts could have more time She
gave as a reading Monsieur Beau
caire" by Booth 1arking, a reading
OF which she was required to appear
almost simultaneously in different
characters and in whicl she render
ed the difficulties OF dramatic or ator
i'm a high degree Of perfection.
Every n was delighted with Miss
Roberts power Of expression and her
personal charms we're captivating TO

for its delivery. she "a applauded
with much enthusiasm, but she was
unable to respond to the encore as
