The Mythical Country

In story, drama and poem an especial
and peculiar interest is attached to the
mythical country. Perhaps this interest
is a survival of the days when we love
fairy tales, laid i'm the lands OF romance
and doubtful location.
Anthony Hope realized this when he IN
vented his wonderful Zenda, and his nu-
merous imitators have seized upon the
idea to their own advantage and the
more or less pleasure Of their readers.
The most fascinating of all these coun-
tries it was left for Franz Lehar ana ms
librettists to discover and embOdy in "Ihe
Merry Widow" that exquisite operetta
which has been the marvel and delight Of
all those who have been fortunate enough
to witness it. And if you have not seen
and heard it, it is to argue yourself an
Ishmael, one quite out Of the fold Of up
tO-date people.

GOVERNOR AND STAFF
TO GO TO SEATTLE
Executive Requests Postponement OF
Utah Day to Accommodate
Choir.

Governor William Spry and staff will
leave here by the Oregon Short Line on
the evening of Aug. p for Seattle, and
will arrive there in time for Utah day at
the Alaska Yukon-Pacific exposition,
Aug. %.
Utah day was originally fixed for Aug.
%, but the governor requested that II be
made a day later. Though no formal an
svyer has been received, there is no doubt
the change of date has been made. This
was because the tabernacle choir will not
arrive at Seattle until the morning of
Aug. g. The choir will leave Salt Lake
by special train Aug. p, and will fill
dates at Boise, Ida; LeGrande, Ore.
Portland and Tacoma before arrival at
Seattle At the exposition, Aug. IS, the
choir will give grand concert in the
Auditorium, one of the permanent build
ings on the exposition grounds.
The High school cadets, $50 strong, will
leave Salt Lake for Seattle Aug. q, ar
irving at the Totem City Aug. %. The
bows will thus have over two days at the
exposition before Utah day there.

He reached Salt Lake after a three
months march across the plains from
