Shall We Have a Lecture Course This
Winter!

That is the question that is up to the
citizens of Welsh to decide, and it is
certainly to be hoped that they will
decide it in the affirmative. There is
nothing that adds more to the educa-
tiona1 value of any community than a
good lecture course. Welsh was for
tunate in having such course last
year-thanks to the efforts of the
ladies of the Alpha Ava Club, and the
same ladies are endeavoring to secure
even better course this year, but in
| order to do so they must have the CO.
operation of the citizens of the COM
munity.
That the matter may be clarly un-
derstood we will give brief account
of the method by which the previous
lecture course was secured and by
which it will be secured again if we
are to have it, Through the untiring

There is no doubt but that there are
fifty more people who will attend the
lectures than have purchased tickets,
they expecting to buy their tickets at
the door. But since it is necessary
for the Lecture Bureau to be assured
of their money, and as none OF these
ladies feel disposed to add to their
labors the responsibility of guaran-
teeing this money, it becomes impera-
tive that the tickets be sold before
hand in order to secure the course.
We trust that when thecti2ens of this
community understand the situation
as above set forth that they will see
tOit that the lecture course does not
60 by default for lack of patronage.
We would also suggest to 4 few
chronic kickers, whose actions in re-
gard to the free ticket feature referred
to above would seem TO indicate that
they would be worthy rivals OF
Maud" of comic picture fame, that if
they think a lady has failed to earn
her right to attend the lectures after
she has gone out and sold ten tickets,
helped to arrange the auditorium and
place the 200 chairs for six entertain
ments, helped in the draw of seats for
six entertainments, and done such
other things as necessarily come up
to be done in carrying out u course OF
this kind, their conception OF the
value of labor is rather below the par.

In eight commandments given for

health may best be preserved and the

He advises temperance In all things,
particularly In regard to stimuants
and ice-cold beverages. People should
eat one-fourth less than they do dur
ing the winter. since the heat energy
is one-quarter less thanin winter. He
advises also against the use of raw
fruits and vegetables, as they con-
tain, In most instances. legions OF

He says that oxidized alcohol is moth
