TWO HEADS

Two heads are better than one
mot always, but sometimes
When one head is better than
an aggregation Of heads, IT is
called genius.
We are DEPRESSING somewhat,
but we want to anticipate a
possible criticism.
We don't want a wrong con-
struStion put on our talks on
improving real estate
As a matter of fact, property
owners are calculated TO know
more about their property and
its possibilities than we do.
In any event, we are not pre-
suming to give them advice.
All that we aim to accom-
plish is: To stimulate those
owners who may be delaying
their building operations.
And, occasionally, perhaps,
TO help some owners to finance
their building operations along
the most conservative lines.

High Class Musical Concert

The coming to Langdon last week of
the Minneapolis Symphony Quartette,
with its concert of high-class instru-
mental and vocal musical numbers at
the Opera House on Wednesday evening
was an occasion of eager anticipation on
the part of lovers of music That it was
a success was easily proven by the size
of the audience present and the warmth
of the reception accorded the performers.
The musical numbers by the quartette
together with the instrumental solos by
Fran Anton korb. the first violinist
and Carlo Fischer the cello soloist, were
each and all given such effective rendi-
tion as to call for unanimous appeal
for encores, which were generously
responded to. A central figure on the
program was Miss Adelaide Pierce, the
contralto sololst who added a pleasing
variation to the program, the equal
of which has never been listened to by
Langdon people. Nearly if not all of
the surrounding towns we're represented
in the large audience present. Superin-
tendent Ridlington of the city schools,
and others who put forth the effort
made to secure the appearance here of
the Minneapolis Symphony Quartette
are greatly pleased at the satisfactory
outcome of an attempt to make success
