The Coming Assembly
Magnificent Talent and a Splen'
did Program Arranged.

Now that the trials and tribula-
tions Of the new and somewhat inn
perfect primary law have been passed
over and the victor and vanquiShed
have settled down TO a more peaceful
condition of life, we can find time to
devote our energies to other pursuits
with pleasure and profit and look for
ward to the annual session Of the
Canton Epworth League Assembly
during which every man, woman and
child will find something pleasing,
amusing and instructive.
superintendent Gave has a magni
ficent array Of talent engaged, The
ablest specialists that have appeared
on any platform will entertain oul
people from the evening of June 30th
to July 18th, and among the old time
favorites non will be more welcome
than Prof. ID. w. Robertson with his
attractive and amusing motion pic
lures. He is a master in his line and
no mar aver entertained an assembly
better.
The other attractions are equally
good and our people can prepare for a
season of real enjoyment.
Canton has won a splendid reputa-
ton through the annual highly moral
and intellectual entertainment pro-
vided by the assembly management,
and 1t is needless to say that Canton
has a plain duty to perform in giving
this great festival moral and financial
support, without which it cannot be
maintained. The receipts so far have
Just about met expenses every year
with the exception Of one when the
management had to make up a slight
deficiency. This may happen again
but we hope not for few men will go
down in their pockets very often to
provide entertainment for the people
If the people fail to appreciate the eff
fort to provide a great assembly pro-
gram which has done so much to
honor the good name of Canton in
the past. Every man and woman in
Canton should appreciate this annual
feast of good things and the LEADER
is sure they do from the splendid eff
forts to sustain it so far, but in this
as in many other things, some seem
to think it will get along without
any special effort on their part. This
may be true in a measure, but we all
know that the Assembly a not long
exist unless our people are united in
it's support. Every one who buys a
ticket gets good value for
their money beside helping to main
tain an attraction that some other
town would give considerable to Sc
cure.
Most of us know what it costs to go
to Sioux Falls or Sioux City to enjoy
such attractions as our Assembly af-
fords. The price of admission to any
outside amusement would be much
higher than 1t is at home to say
nothing about the railroad fare and
other expenses.
Canton must not fail to appreciate
a good thing when she has it and
Canton must never permit our AS
sembly to fail for lack Of a united and
generous support ii she wants to
maintain her reputation as one of the
cleanest and best towns in the state.
Canton has a future if her people will
work and pull together and the fu-
ture of any town depends upon the
public spirit and patriotism of her
citizens, therefore, if you want to see
your town grow great as a moral and
intellectual center with a season of
attractions that are just as good as
you would see in Chicago or Mime
apolis' you must prepare to do your
part. The Assembly will be with us
in less than three weeks.
The LEADER crowd feels so ALFRED
good this week that they feel more
like celebrating than getting out a
paper.
