A Concert.

At 7:3O Saturday evening the
prisoners we're unlocked from
their cells and marched to the
chapel where they spent delight
full hour and half listening to a
concert given by the pupils of the
Humboldt High School, of St..
Paul. There were twenty persons
in the visiting party.
The entertainment consisted of
singing and Rotations. Warden
Wolfer was master of ceremonies
and announced that the first num-
Der on the program would be
"Down on the Farm" by the
prison band. The balance of the
program was filled in by pupils
of the Humboldt High School.
The participants rendered their
parts admirably we'll and were
accorded hearty applause by the
audience. It is seldom the pris-
oners are given an evenings enter
tainment of this nature. When
they are given an opportunity to
enjoy such privilege they become
so enthusiastic they can hardly
await the completion of song be-
fore showing their appreciation
by applauding the singer. As the
men marched from chapel the Or
chestra played Southern Smiles"
While at the prison the visitors
were the guests of the Warden's
family.

Repeating ITSELF This paper
was we'll prepared, we'll read and
was we'll received. The author of
this paper was familiar with his
subject and brought out many
interesting statements. It was
followed by another class report
on Atrocities of War; which
was discussed at considerable
length. The third was special
report entitled, Business is Bust
ness.' This was a humorous
contribution and caused great
deal of mirth.
The last paper on the program
was class report on "Por6rio
Diaz." The writer paid an ex-
cellent tribute to Mexico's Grand
Old Man. It was one of the best
papers read for several meetings
and was highly appreciated. In
his criticisms the critic availed
himself of the present opportu-
nifty to define the duties of
critic. He said that critic should
give praise when papers merited it
and when they deserved censor it
should be applied with tact and
sincerity. The critic before clos
ing his remarks made special
mention of the paper on History
Repeating ITSELF" and the one on
''Porfirio Diaz."

APlea for a NatureStOrY,

There is nothing SO delightful
or healthful for the tired man or
woman rs to get out in the fresh,
green fields or sunny woods, to be
alone, to study, and to live with
nature. The study of the birds
and creatures of the woods is not
only interesting, but instructive
to those who see and read much
on the face of nature. The bird
and animal life interests the CON-
mon observer the most, while a
few find delight in studying the
flowers, forest, etc.
The birds and animals, perhaps,
do not have elf-consciousness;
man alone seems to be endowed
with that faculty The lower
ANIMALS have to live by their wits
in their struggle for existence,
but they are provided by nature
with natural weapons of defense.
The skunk has dull wit, but a
terrible weapon of defense, also
the hedgehog and armadillo. It
would be superfuous to 60 into de-
tails and mention the different
animals, birds, etc., to describe
their peculiar ways OF defense and
manner of procuring sustenance.
We all know they lead very busy
lives, while their end is nearly
always tragedy. Fear, love, and
hunger are the agents that have
developed the wits Of the lower
animals.
We all delight in nature stories,
and many of us could no doubt
relate interesting stories about
birds and animals. Those of us
who have been close to nature
take keen pleasure and delight in
the perusal of true nature stories.
Not the magnifed, CARRIED tales
we sometimes read or hear, but
the unadulterated, unsweetened
observations which a real nature
lover Graves. No man can invent
incidents and traits as interesting
as the reality. If you counterfeit
the truth, do it so deftly that you
won't be detected. In natural
history there is no need to coun-
terfeit the truth; the reality always
sufices. If you have eyes to see
it and ears to hear it, even the
life of a bumblebee is a true
wonder book in itself, the enchant.
ment of poetry welded to the fact
of science.
Nature stories seem to be neg
lected in this little home journal
OF ours. We would suggest that
some of the able contributors try
their hand by writing some pleas
ing little tale from nature that has
come under their observation; it
will delight the hearts of many
who love and worship Natures
God. BEARD.
