Cost Of Band Music.

There are two sides to every propo-

Sunday afternoon band concerts, and
according to figures promulgated by

is rather discouraging. Over and over
again the remark is heard, why is
there not more, band music in Fargo?"

private organization, incorporated un-

Stubborn Cinderella. There were the
sweet-voiced Grace Esmond. as Lady
Leslie; Ethel Dovey as Lois, and a
lot Of other geode people in the cast.
There were the prettiest and most
shapely chorus girls seen here in a

tuned, the stage settings were magni-

was catchy and altogether A Stubborn
Cinderella was one Of the musical
things that appeal to the ear and eye
and that go with swing and dash that

Mason was on the programme in
black face caps-and he was entitled

spontaneously funny and pleasing to
look at. The production was put on

out about 1t he imprisons her in the
old red mill, which has the reputation
of being haunted. How the two Amer

spectacular development of the first
