INADEQUATE POLICE FORCE
One Policeman is Not Sufficient to
Keep Order on the Streets
During the Day.
During the Day.

Ihi1teen years ago when Mitchell
had d population OF about 1900 peo-
pie police was sufficient to main
tain order on the streets. Today the
population approaches nearly 1000
people, and we still have the one
policeman to look after quiet. peace
and order OF the street. Chief Keith
does bis work we'll, so far as he is
able to distribute himself in the var
ious portions Of the city, but his
presence cannot at all times be cut
up to serve the best interests.
What would be considered ade-
quate protection would be to employ
two more men besides the chief and
let them give their sole attention
to street matters. 1t is possible
that they might not make an arrest
for several days, but that is not en-
tirely the question, the number Of ar
rests they might make. 1t is their
presence on the street to avoid any
trouble thas might arise at, a mo-
ment's notice.
IL is sheer good luck that things
nave gone along as quietly as they
have and no great amount Of dis
turbance has occurred. but one
amt always depend ON good luck to
carry them through and there is a
possibility that the city of Mitchell
will find it out some day.
Mitchell is continually on the grow
and the police force and protection
certainly ought to keep pace with
the growth. 1t is understood that
several members of the city council
are anxious to employ additional po-
liceman, but they are i'm the minori-

SOMETHING ABOUT kILTlEs
They are Touring IN the East Now
and Come to Mitchell for the
Corn Palace.

The kilties. the famous Scotch
Canadian band, is now touring in the
east where they are playing to mag
niticent and enthusiasts site audiences.
The Kilties are greeted by some OF
the greatest ..assemblages Of people
that any band has brought together
in the east. Recently at Willow
Grove Park, in Pennsylvania, the
Kilties played to an afternoon audi
ence OF 10000 people, and a photo
graph was obtained OF the same for
use in advertising. Last Friday the
band played at Findlay, Ohio, to "A
great business, and the following
comment is made by the Republican
of FindlaY:
Kilties' band played and sang
annie Laurie and it was done.
Kilties world famous organization
did play and sing "Annie Laurie''
and with only such feeling and emo-
ton as would ne displayed by the
singing OF such a melody by a real
Scot.
The Kilties arrived in Fostoria
Friday. where they are stopping
while playing their engagement at
Reeves park. Friday they appeared
in two concerts at the park casino
and will play an equal number today
at 3 and $50. The band in itself
is a wonder. Composed OF nearly
seventy musicians, all dressed in
lands of Scotland, they attract com
ment wherever they 90.
! The feature of the program is the
novelty OF the affair. First lively,
catchy, whistleable, genuine Ameri-
can tune followed hy a quaint Scotch
melody, then maybe Il selection on
the noises of musical instruments,
the bagpipe, then the sword dancers
have their turn and so on through
the entire length OF the long pro-
gram. Every number is a hit, every
performer q star. To say that the
band pleased would be putting it
tame They conquered. 1t is not
the first success for the band.
III ey are used to it. For many
years, success has crowned their
efforts and Findlay people who did
not attend last evening should not
fail to do so Saturday evening.
Albert Cook, conductor OF the Or
ga~nizatiCn, is a wonder. He is a
master OF the situation. No Crea.
tore style for him. a slight waving
OF his baton leads every movement
Of the big band.
The Kilties have been engaged to
play a weeks engagement at the
Mitchell corn palace. Sept. 1929,
and it will prove a very meritorous
attraction.

The day the letter arrived in Sioux
