FIRST VISIT TO A CITY
YOUNG WEST ST. PAUL MAN
COMES TO MINNEAPOLIS AND
rs WONDER-sTRICKEN.

Twenty years old and never in a
theater, tho he had spent his life in
West st. Paul, Joseph Kodas yester-
day received his first glimpse Of a real
metropolitan city when he visited Min
neapolis.
Kodas left the little down-river city
on business trip to Minneapolis. He
left had no idea Of the surprise that
awaited him. He had the impression
that st. Paul was the biggest city in
the world and that the quiet, narrow
streets Of that station on the Great
Northern line were about as busy and
congested as could be found anywhere.
But he was surprised and admitted
it. The monster elevators, high office
buildings. the rapid movements Of the
throngs on the streets and a thousand
and one other sights so commonplace
to residents of Minneapolis, but 50 won
derful to the visitor from rural COM
munity, brought EXPLANATIONS Of won
der and admiration from Kodas
Joseph Kodas is the son Of Charles
Kodas, prosperous Hungarian market
gardener Tho his life has been happy
and despite the fact that his father was
rowing man and once sailor, the
nomadic spirit usually inherent in
healthy youth has never appeared in
Kodas. It is not charged that he is
unsophisticated, despite his long resi-
his business dealings in Minneapolis he
showed that he is shrewd. He has nc
desire for the usual sports of boys ant
never yearned to leave quiet st. Paul
He says that some day he may come
to Minneapolis again and may som,
time attend theater, but he doesn' =
bother his mind with these things.
