The
Wild Olive
By the Author of
The Inner Shrine"

Tie Bookman, whose figures
are recognized as the national
authority, now declares "The
Wild Olive" 10 he the best
selling novel in the United
States. The success OF "The
Wild Olive" is even greater
than that Of "The Inner Shrine"
because the story rs greater,
better, finer. "The Wild Olive
has broader basis OF plot, a
nobler conception Of character,
a higher idealism. IL is-abovc

A
Successful
By G.. Dorset

A narrative Of heartbeats-
wifehood through a woman's
eyes. For the first time in
fiction is this done - clearly,
cleanly, truthfully. The girl
grows into a woman and the
woman becomes wife amid the
surroundings we all know. She
tells us exactly what her struggle
was. And she was first of all a
poor little stenographer in New
York. 1t is thrilling life ex-
perience from first 10 last.

The
Ramrodders
By Holman Day

Here is so-oalled "man's
novel" which is being read by
more women than nine-tenths
Of the Spring romances. Why:
Simply because it's real-a GER
uine story of power and humor.
Interest as keen and unwavcr-
ing as that OF 4 hunter awaiting
the coming OF a horn-lured
moose is aroused in The Ram
rodders,' a powerful, important
narrative" This is the opinion
OF the BosIoH G.1bc, which adds:
"And not since David Harum
days has such genuine, smile
making. back on ,he-soil humor
been found between the covers
Of a book"

to request all patrons of the rural

Local III. S. Contests
Jay Truesdell and Miss Nora
Linger, Winners

The local high school boys ora
torical and girls declam atory con-
tests were held in the M. E. church
Tuesday evening and were attended
by a large and appreciative au-
dience.
The oratorical program came first
and was opened by All excellently
rendered piano duet by Misses Char
lene Flower and May Smith. The
first grafton, Napoleon Bonaparte, "
was given forcefully and eloquently
by Jay Truesdell. Character Es-
sential to Great Lawyer" was the
subject of an interesting Grafton by
Neal Taylor. Louis Manion was
awarded second place on his clever
handling of an Grafton entitled
Robert E. Lee" Paul Hawkins
closed the oratorical program with
an able discussion of THE Philip
pine Question" A vocal solo,
"The Complete Angler" sung by
Herbert Toby was heartily applaud
ed and an encore demanded, to
which Mr.. Toby responded by
singing Little One a-Cryin'."
Miss May Smith played the piano
accompaniment.
AS a preliminary to the declama-
tory contest the Girls Glee Club
gave two pleasing chorus songs,
Garden of Roses" and Nanny
Coon" which reflected great credit
on the young ladies and upon Miss
Litta M. Fuller, who had directed
them in the preparation of these Sc
lections.
The first defamation was enti-
tied "Hagar" and was recited by
Miss Nora Linger whose excellent
rendition of this selection won for
her first place in the decision of the
judges. "Tobe's Monument" by
Lola White; "The Soldiers Re-
prieve," by Dorothy Ames and
1.-THE Steeple Chase" by Jessie
Smith were all splendidly entertain
ing. Miss Beth Allen was given
second place through her fine rem
dition of selection entitled The
Hundred and Oneth." The story
of "Bobbie Shaftoe" was beautiful
| ly recited by Vivian Higgins.
Gertrude Green was awarded third
place. Her selection was entitled
Gentlemen, The King" M is S
Blanch Wilcox closed the contest
with thrilling recital of PRO Pat
ria" (For Ones Country.
The program was concluded by
the singing of "Old Folks at Home
and an encore by the Girls Glee
Club.
Jay Truesdell and Miss Linger
will represent River Falls in the
league contest to be held in The
lander's hall, this city, on Friday
evening, April %.

1t is an interesting and suggest
i've fact that the parsonage most
discussed in the press and wherev-
er men and women are gathered to-
gether at the present time is not
the President of the United States
or any civil potentate, European or
Asiatic, but an ex-president, who,
after year of isolation, and immo-
lation, as far as politics is con-
cerned, has barely emerged from
exile. He no sooner reached a
modern city than he resumed his
role of preacher and teacher to the
half-mutinous subjects of a Moham-
medan ruler, restless under the
suzerainty of nation that only
few years ago snatched them from
barbarism and bankruptcy and did
more for them than their rulers had
been able to accomplish in 5000
years or since Egypt was the high
ly civilized and progressive country
of prehistoric times. A thousand
years is but day in history, and it
is still doubtful if any country on
this planet is fit for self-government
Since only one man here and there
can govern or direct his course with
wisdom, where is the logic in sup
posing that the mass which is no.
toriously ignorant and unwise can
govern itself? OF course, certain
agitators among the Philippines,
the Cubans, the East Indians and
other countries, under the benign
rule of more stable governments,
make it appear that these peoples are
yearning for freedom and national
ity, than which there are no words
more beguiling. But to return to
our ex-President. He leaves Cairo
in a ferment and landing at Naples,
finds himself in controversy with
the Roman Catholic Church which
to him, as to all Protestants, is not
1.-The Church." but "a church"
but to all Catholics it is THE
Church." The effect of the contro-
versy will be to strengthen the popu-
larity of Theodore Roosevelt in this
country. The President who ap-
pointed a Catholic, Bonaparte, in
his cabinet, who appointed Catholics
to high judicial positions and to
high diplomatic posts, who has re-
ceived their most distinguished prel-
ates at the White House, who has
addressed them from their church
es and assisted in the dedication of
institutions cannot be placed in an
inimical false position to real Cath
olicism. A few more such episodes
as those in Cairo and Italy will keep
interest on the qui vive, if such
stimulation can be imagined neces-
sary, but can do little to add to the
top-notch popularity of the most
popular man in the world.

A sandy loan soil usually pro-
duces potatoes of better quality
than the heavier soil. 1t remains
more mellow, giving the potatoes a
chance to become more shapley and
making them easier to dig. Heavier
soil sometimes yields larger be-
cause of its greater fertility, but the
tubers are more subject to brown
rot in such soil than in sandy loan.

BASE BALL

The first game of the city teams
schedule for this season will be
PLAYED here a week from next Sun
day. The Sunday trains are ex-
pected to be put into operation on
that date and the local manager
sliced the opportunity to secure the
fast North ST. Paul team fer the
first game.
Financially, the last season was
not a success here, the gate receipts
at each game being always far be-
low the expense Of the visiting team.
If the fans are enthusiastic enough
to want to see River Falls we'll rep
resented on the diamond and to wit
ness some fast games this season
they should turn out strong for the
opening games-and pay admission
at the gates.
If River Falls is to have base
ball team it should have good one,
as an Indifferent team or poor one
is a bad advertisement for the town.
Manager Fortune, realizing this,
has taken great pains to sign up
PLAYERS whose combined ability
should make the team a credit to the

Knowing that the many River
Falls friends of Herman F. Parsons,
formerly of this city, will be pleased
to learn of his business success,
we print the following clipping
from the Minneapolis Journal of
March 81, 1910:
"The firm of Meager & Parsons,
wholesale produce dealers on Com
mission Row, was organized Jan. /,
1908, and is composed of l. E. Mea-
ger and H. F. Parsons. Previous
to the establishment of this bust
ness, Mr.. Meager was connected for
five years with Swift & Co., South St.
Paul, as manager of their produce
business and Mr.. Parsons, for a
like period, was connected with the
same firm as head salesman in the
the twin cities. From a small pro-
duce business at the start, this con-
Germ has developed into one of the
largest poultry and egg houses in
Minneapolis. They make special
ty of poultry and eggs and their
business last ye r aggregated
$500, 900. They are located on Com
mission Row, Central Market, and
occupy a building equipped with
modern facilities for handling and
dressing poultry. One entire floor
is utilized for feeding and prepar-
ing for the market what is known
as "milkfed poultry" They have a
feeding capacity for $500 birds.
During the busy season, which is
around the holidays, this firm last
year received from country mer-
chants an average of carload OF
live poultry per day. In the busy
season from thirty to forty people
are employed"

Human Life For April

HUMAN LIFE has a birthday in
April, which it proposes to cele.
brate in royal style by an issue that
is an all-star cast.
The cleverest fool in Christendom
so clever that big New York
manager has corralled him for life
is the subject of an enormously
interesting story by Rufus H. Gill
more. His adventures line up with
those of Sindbad the Sailor, with
the added merit of being all true.
In "The Mystery of Dreyfus"
Charles Edward Russell, looking
back through a perspective of more
than a decade, throws new light on
one of the most amazing and mo-
mentous happenings in modern his
tory. Alfred Henry Lewis with
this issue closes his series, "Travel-
ing with Taft" with some sur
prising sidelights on the Utah end
of the trip, and the mighty and
little understood power of the Nor
mon in politics.
Leigh Hunt, the man who inocu-
lated Roosevelt with the African
hunting bacilli, has had about the
most fascinating career man could
have. Read it in this issue.
A wonderful and most indispens-
