Interesting Recital of Christmas Music
 By Prof tcpson.

A recital of Christian music was giv- on at Woolsey hall yesterday afternoon by Prof. Harry B Jepson, university organist
 It was a pleasing program which Prof Jepson arranged the only critic ism which might be made being that it was too short. The compositions were especially appropriate to the pre- Christmas season as the following will show:
 ITombclle -Carillon
 Mailing Christmas Suite.
 l. The Shepherds in the Field
 IT. The Three Wise Men from tho East
 III Bethlehem.
 Gigout- t-Intermezzo.
 Dubois -Pastorale, March of the Magi
 Kings.
 Handel Halleluiah Chorus (from the
 Messiah.
 Mir Jepson played with fine taste and many happy effects in registration which displayed tho characteristic features of the program,
 The March of the Mag Kings" by Dubois, in which q sustained high note represents the guiding star, gave great pleasure, and had applause been permitted would have heen repeated In spite of the storm Woolsey hall was nearly filled, which proves tho need of something of ths character on Sunday afternoons In winter If two OF three thousand people can he gathered to listen 10 music of high standard, it Is desirable to encourage the desire which the public showed SO emphatically veg terday If is in line with the opening of the Peabody museum and Art gall lery, but perhaps 1t should not bc left entirely to Yale university to gratlfy the demand for artistic stimulus on Sundays.

Sioux Falls, s. D.. Dec l2, Insurance of bank deposits is a South Dakota Idea to be expressed in new state law this winter. and to be carried to Washing ton by Governor Coe Crawford who will be elected United States senator at this winters session of the legislature.

The South Dakota law will create q department of bank Insurance, prob ably attached to the office of the state examiner lt will he announced that the state Is prepared to insure pay ment of the deposits of any bank that can pass inc required examination. The conditions are to be so exactlng that nonc but perfectly solvent bank can obtain a state policy

 Governor elect Vessey is in complete sympathy with Governor Crawford on this issue. and hls advocacy of it has added weight to tho movement behind tho proposed system, because he is a successful banker

We have a fine cigaret law now, but we often see boys smoking, much to our sorrow.
 We are led to wonder if the authorities are doing all they can to wipe out this evil? We notice that in many places the school boards, realizing that the pupils brains are affected by the habit, are working hard toward break ing it up.
 A practitioner of twenty years standing says: America has done herself proud to scowl on this pernicious habit; that the smoke of the cigaret is so mild that it invites inhalation - the nicotine thereby entering the cerebral circulation dil ectly and henumbs the brain. It also enters the larynx and bronchial tubes, coating their membranes with carbon and acting as an ir ritant. "
 But, boys. aside from any in ternal injury it does, can't we per suade you that the very looks of a boy smoking at all is a sight to offend, not to say anything of the terrible mell you create for a block around you?
 It is past our understanding to think that boy does not want to come up to the best that is in him, and 1t seems that all he would need would be just to be told of these ugly things, and he would quit immediately, but we find such is not the case.
 An! We fear the fathers and mothers have ofttimes transmit. ted these horrible appitites to their children and the children in turn do not try hard enough to assert their eternal will against them.
