ger ale to drink, and that the press
people got riotous on ginger ale. A
ginger ale jag is terrible. When a
man is full of ginger ale his intestines
loop the loop, and tie up in knots, and
grippe like cholera infantum, and un-
less his friends hold him he goes out
into the world and wants to kill the
women and children, and non-com-
batants.
Last: year our press agents filled up
the members of the local press with
ginger ale, and when we struck Phil
adelphia this time the newspapers had
sworn out warrants for our show, on
the charge of compromising a felony,
which I suppose is the legal name for
ginger ale. The way the Quakers pat
ronize a show is to put on their gray

On this ground drawing has a place
in public school education; as a means
Of expression alone and not as an ART
whose proper training is in the school
Of fine arts. From this standpoint the
teaching of drawing may be relieved of
many of it's objections in the public
schools and it's teaching and study may
be placed within the grasp of the av-
erage teacher and pupil. Would not a
system that does not require the
draughtsman's knowledge on the part
of the teacher or the ability to draw
on the part of the pupil meet the CON-

course the company must carry these
men until they get back employment
again, because they never have a cent
above their monthly wages. Mr..
Danyes, Sr., has placed upwards Of
10000 pianos in the states of Utah,
and Idaho, and at the present rate,
If he continues in business for another
twenty years will double this number
Mr.. H. S. Daynes also has an active
part in the business, in fact, he has
assumed a good deal of the RESPONSE
bility, from the fact that Mr.. Daynes,
ST., his father, does not care to be
bothered with the details of the bust
ness.
Mr.. A. 7. Christensen, the treasurer
of the company, has been in the piano
business for twenty-five years, and
has sold directly more pianos and or
gans than any two statesmen in the
state of Utah. He is very congenial
man and always lives up to the prom
Uses he makes his customers, conse-
quently is liked wherever he goes.

pany were recently purchased by
