A choice and we'll rendered program
was given at the Presbyterian church
on Tuesday evening by the ITALIAN
Ladies Quartette. This quartette is
composed of local talent and is under
the direction of Prof. Mann, who has
their voices trained to a high state of
efficiency. The ladies are Frances
West, 1st soprano; Rilla McElmurry,
2nd soprano; Lila Alton, 1st contralto;
and Elsie Leekley, End contralto, with
Miss Ruth Westcott, accompanist.
The concert went off without a hitch OF
any kind and the performance was one
of great merit for an amateur organi-
zation. More should have heard it.
The REGISTER feels that it ought to
make an apology on behalf of the
good people of Watertown as it might
be supposed that the bunch of rooters
who came down from that place
Thursday to skin Brookings at base
ball by fair means or foul were a
representation Of the whole people.
To be sure some OF the better element
was present, but the "gang" was made
up OF "sports" who thought because
they controlled the umpire from that
place they had sure thing and bet
on scinch. Brookings likes clean
ball and only wants to win fairly.
Foul methods always create i'll feeling
and this should not exist between
these cities.
