Our "Fake Newspaper" Party.

One of the most unique events in
the history of the social life of River
Falls occurred last Saturday after
noon when Mesdames Kaler and
Davis gave a Fake Newspaper
Party" at the home of the former.
The rooms were appropriately deco
rated with copies of the local papers
and the ST. Paul Dispatch and the
energetic reporters representing
the three papers We'd with each 9th
er to secure subscribers for their
respective periodicals. AS each
guest decided upon the periodical
she wished to subscribe for the
name of the paper was pinned upon
her. These decisions caused many
merry comments as the guests went
about among their friends. AT
four o'clock sharp" the items"
went to press. 1t is not often that
the patrons of the papers have an
opportunity 10 see the Printer
Devil" at his task of getting out his
edition before it is dark, but had the
publishers of the New York World,
or the Chicago Record-Herald seen
this one at his task surely money
would have been no object in secur-
ing his services. Ali had loaned a
helping hand and many bits of non
sensical news, and queer ads were
printed in each paper, but the three
editors had time to read only few
of them. One of the Journal items
was quotation taken from real
Journal of thirty-four years ago.
In soliciting subscribers for the
several papers the Journal came
within one of being the most popu-
lar flake" of the three. The re-
porter who succeeded in securing
the largest number of subscribers
was privileged to take them first to
the dining room. The dining room
table had a cover of newspapers, and
the paper napkins bore the heading,
"Our Newspaper Fake, with quo
tation from one of the papers. These
and the decoration o. violets made
an effective presentation.

Memorial Day at Ellsworth.

The citizens of Ellsworth took it
upon themselves to arrange a pro-
gram suited to proper observance
of Memorial Day and their efforts
were crowned with success. The :
large auditorium was filled be-
yond its seating capacity by an au-
dience which listened to a rare intel
lectual treat. Judge Charles Smith
of Superior delivered an address
which was touching tribute to the
heroic self-sacrifcing devotion Of
the dead and the living who wore
both the blue" and the gray"
The speaker incide ntally pointed
to the progress of the movement in
the direction of a universal peace,
when nations shall learn war no
more" and looked hopefully for
ward to the results that may be ac-
complished either by the Hague
tribunal or some other arbiter of
peace more comprehensive in form
which shall be sustained by healthy
public opinion whose watchword
shall be Peace on earth, good will
toward men,"
At the conclusion of the exercises
the Ellsworth Woman's Relief Corps
served an excellent lunch to over
two hundred guests, after which oc-
Cured the ritualistic Memorial SER
vices by the Grand Army of the
Republic, in Maple Grove Cemetery.
A horse belonging to VIM. Foley
became frightened at passing auto
Saturday and, breaking away from
the hitching post, dashed down
Main street, freeing itself from the
buggy and running some distance
into the country before it was stop
ped. The buggy and harness were
somewhat damaged.

High School Commencement

The city schools closed their
years work last week. The annual
commencement exercises were held
in the Opera House Friday evening,
when class of fifteen were given
diplomas of graduation from the
high school.
Our high school has been in the
habit of graduating good classes.
and this class was no exception to
the rule. Judging from the exer-
cises Friday evening it was one of
the best classes that has yet finished
the high school.
AS class it was an innovation in
one respect at least, in that the girls
outnumbered the boys, there being
ten girls and five boys. Only six of
the class appeared on the program
Friday evening Fannie Smith
and Miss Bertha Jensen, who had
won first and second honors respec-
tively-Miss Ida Foley who had a
history of River Falls Schools, and
Miss Lille Cudd and Messrs. Roy
Knapp and Earl Whitcomb repre-
senting the rest of the class.
The parts of each were we'll pre-
pared and we'll given. Miss Jensen
showed the force of nationality in
determining peoples music. Miss
Smith had defense of Virgil and
his Kneid. Miss Cudd gave char
acter sketch of Robt. E. Lee. Mr..
Knapp showed the place occupied
by the U. S. as an exponent of Arbi-
tration, while Mr.. Whitcomb showed
the Importance and power of the
work of the orator.
The music for the evening was
furnished by three of the teachers
of the public school-Miss Irma
Armstrong, Miss Eva Henderson,
and Miss E. V. Ames, and by a
quartette of high school girls
Misses Margaret Smith, Loretta
Bailey, May Smith and Ethel Chap
man.
Prin. Ames gave short talk on
the value of an education as an in
vestment, and presented the diplo-
mas to the class.
The stage never looked better
than on Friday night, the class of
'08 having arranged woods scene
with banks ofevergreen intertwined
with white flowers, the colors of
this years class being green and
white.
The exercises of the evening were
very successful and brought to a
close very successful years work.

WANT A SYRINGE?

OF course every we'll regulated
household wants one. But there
are Syringes and syringes-
those that don't work and those
that do. If you care for the first
we haven't them: if you want
the last, the kind that work we'll
and always work, we have them.

Wyoming FlOcl1master Delighted
With Outlook for 1908.

Speaking to a Riverton, Wyoming,
News reporter. j. w. Blake, the well
known wool and mutton millionairs-
said of Wyoming sheep conditions:
1.-THE year of 1908 is to be of ex-
ceptional value and return to the
Wyoming sheep industry.
From Converse, Natrona, Fremont
and Johnson counties alike comes
the same great story Of good grass
and coming fat winter ranged sheep.
1.-THE flocks Of these four counties
represented at least one and one-half
million sheep, all of which are now
on excellent ranges-every sheep
concerned coming out, beyond doubt,
fat and hearty next spring.
"In all my sheep experience have
never seen a more favorable Wyo-
ming range sheep season at this time
Of the year.
At present about $4,000 sheep have
been placed on the winter ranges OF
the ceded portions of the Shoshone
and Arapahoe Indian reservation, a
number which will be increased by
the first OF January next to $50, 1000
head"
Mr.. Blake himself has in excess OF
10000 head Of sheep on these res
ervation ranges.
