Yes, friends
An early flower bestowed unasked,
A light and cautious tread,
A voice 20 sOftest whispers hushed,
To spare an aching head
Oh, things like these, though little things,
Kindliest love disclose;
As fragrant atoms on the air
Reveal the hidden rose.

IF friends should doubt and misconstrue
The motives of the good we do,
And persecute as day by day
BY all that they could do or say;
II eensure, in her scOrn, should rise,

And grave suspicious brought our name
Down low 70 whisperings Of shame,
Would we perform the loving deed

THE BOHEMIAN GIRL"
 WAS WELL PRESENTED
A SPLENDID PERFORMANCE FRI
 DAY NIGHT.
The First Opera in the New Normal
 Auditorium.

Tine Bohemian Girl" at the ,iew Normal Auditorium Friday evening, was altogether the most satisfactory performance of the> kind that has ever been given at the Normal school. Despite the fact that the evening was unusually cold and uncomfortable. when the curtain went up there were seated in the auditorium nearly 300 persons, and during the three hours of the play, the closest attention was given every detail. Tempe people are not lacking in their appreciation of performances like ''rhe Bohemian Girl" and the efforts of, the Arizona School of Akdsic, faculty and students, received the heartieSt applause. The audience consisted of a class of peo- ple who were discriminating in the recognition of the good points of the presentation.
 Following is a contributed criticism of the productions:
 Miss Luke. as "The Gypsy Queen" was d striking feature of the opera, singing and acting her part in a truly dramatic manner. with the abandon of a veteran performer. Her voice is characterized by great even ness and clearness of quality at all times. with an apparent reserve force equal to any demand of the situation In short. she is small bundle of vital energy.
 Mir. Armstrong sang the part of the Gypsy chief. "Devilshoof.' most de- lightfully. meeting the requirements of it's difficult portrayal admirably. making friends of his audience from the start and maintaining this inti- macy to the close. Mrs. Dameron, as Airline; Mir. Rutherford. as ''Thad- deus: Mir Kerr. as The Count" and Mir Tolleson, as ''F'lorestein." all sus- tained their various parts very cred itably, in an otherwise all-round en- joyablc performance.
 In justice to MT. Rutherford, it should be said that he went upon the stage last night rather reluctantly. as he was suffering from an inflamed throat and general physical disability from oVerwork. and this condition no doubt yelled his vocalization to some extent. His Fairy Land of Poland. however. was exceptionally well sung.
 Especial commendation is here giN- cn for the excellent concerted work of the principals. which was at all times finished and artistic. and satis- fying to the most eXactins.
 The musical department of the Normal is to be congratulated upon the resultss of this event. This de- partment has a reputation for pre- senting nothing but the best in its line to it's patrons. and when It an nounces an entertainment the public may rest assused it will get the worth of its money A tidy sum will be netted and will help pay for the per manent stage fixtures already in- stalled

TEMPE DEPARTMENT 7" s@TTz~ {
\ B0LD ATTEMPT
 AT STORE ROBBERY A ROCK THROWN THROUGH A
 WINDOW. La Mont's Jewelry Store Broken Into
 Friday Evening.

Ope of the boldcst attempts at rob bery that has ever occurred here took place between and 9:30 o'clock Fri day evening at La Monts jewelry store. A rock was thrown through the front plate glass. making large hole in the display window.
 Mir. and Mrs. La Mont had just re- tired to the rear of the store in an other room. where they reside, when they heard a crash. IL sounded very much as if window had been broken, and MT. La Mont stepped to the front of the building. As the store was dark he was unable to sec what had transpired. and there being no fur- ther disturbance. he concluded tffat whatever had happened had taken place outside of the store. He ac cordingly returned to the other room and went to bed. In a short time he was again disturbed by sound not unlike the scratch of coat against broken glass. This time, upon re- turning to the store, he turned on the light, and discovered just what had happened. A hole in the plate glass nearly two feet in diameter
  inside with the jewelry. where it had fallen after doing it's damage. The rock weighed not less than two pounds.
 Most of the more valuable jcwelry. including watches. rings. etc. had been removed from the window and placed in the safe for the night. Mir. La Mont is unable to state whether anything was taken or not, being un- able to remember just what had been left in the window. The loss. how ever. whatever it was. is small com pared to the value Of the window, which will have to be replaced.
 It seems impossible that a stone that size could have found its way through the glass through any acci- dent The only theory that Mir. Ia Mont will accept is that of bold attempt at robbery. So far there is not the slightest clue to the party or parties who were implicated in the crime.

THE CORRECT TIME

to stop cough or cold is just as soon as it starts-then there will be no danger of pneumonia or consumption. Just a few doses of BaIlard's Hore- hound Syrup taken at the start will stop the cough. If it has been running on for some time the treatment will be longer, but the cue is sure.
