The sound of the axeman has
been heard in the Gilger grove.
Here where the trees have been re-
garded with a feeling akin to sa-
cred reverence for years and years,
the sound Of the axe has echoed
during the past week. But no
alarm need be felt that any undue
vandalism will be permitted. It is
only where absolutely necessary to
make room for the buildings of the
Willmar Park Assembly that the
trees are cleared away. At the
east end of the auditorium will
stand a grand old oak, which must
be some seventy feet tall and which
has stood as a grim sentinel for
many generations back. It has
seen the countless bison Craze on
prairies all around and has shell
tered numberless times the tepees
of the Tetons and Yanktons when
on their hunting and trapping ex-
peditions. With it's gaurd Of old
gnarIed oaks of less height it will
furnish a grand approach to the
tempel of progress and enlighten-
ment now being erected in the

grove blythe people of Willmar and
vicinity
!! The executive board of the as
sembly has fixed the dates for the
firt assembly from the goth to the
29th of: July, inclusive. The pro-
gram committee is busily engaged
at securing talent to make this the
first assembly at Willmar a memoir
able one. But they will need the
hearty cooperation of all the citi-
zens to carry out successfully the
features for the special days. It is
yet little early to attempt to out
line the program, but we wish to
again emphasize the fact that it
will be, as good a one as it is pos
sible to get. The arranging of the
programs for the two Scandinavian
days will be left to committees re-
preventative of the two national
tiles, and it is expected that there
will be a little friendly rivalry en-
gendered to make these days the big
events of the assembly. There will
be a farmers day. and possibly a
health conservation day. Special
pains will be taken to make the
musical features very attractive.

Furniture Store Rem0delled.

The interior Of the Andrew Pc
terson furniture store has been
completely remodelled. The Office
in the center was taken out, and
the stairway moved so as to give
more room for stock upstairs.
The office rooms on the east side
have been enlarged, and the large
room on the south side has been d.
vided into two apartments, one for
pictures and smaller pieces Of fur
niture and the other to be used as
undertaking parlors. A fine wait

the Office. Besides these changes
the walls have been repapered, pre-

REPORT OF JOHNSON
MEMORIAL BOARD

G. W. Ames, secretary of the
Johnson Memorial fund, has issued
his detailed report of cash received
in the numerous contributions that
make up the $24,2 Somewhere
between rs, 900 and 100, 900 individ-
ual and spontaneous contributions

town and county contributed. The
amount raised in Kandiyohi county
was $317.61. The Willmar Gazette

Tribune with $89. The receipts
from the schools Of the county were
$86.12.
The Commission is now engaged
in consideration of the important
choice of the sculptor. That he
must be an artist Of the first rank
is conceded. Nothing but the best
will be good enough to satisfy Min
esota; and the money which has
been contributed by the state at
large will be used. to the best
ability Of the Commission, to Sc
cure work of art which shall be
of the highest artistic beauty and
of permanent value. At this writ
ing. nothing has been decided ex-
cept that the Memorial shall take
the form Of a bronze statue Of he

HOME TALENT
SCORES SUCCESS
IAN Unequal Match Presented
. TO Crowded House Pro-
ceedS about $3.50.

Home talent scored another tri-
umph Monday evening when it pre-
sented IAN Unequal Match to a
crowded house. The cast was prac-
tically the same as that which gave
"Nevada" some time ago and the
acting was if anything better last
Monday than it was on that occa.
sion. Everyone of the Ihespians
did remarkably we'll, and as the
audience was a thoroly appreciative
one, the evening proved a most en-
joyable one. Special mention must
be made of Mr.. Forsberg's splendid
portrayal of Joseph Garland, the
pld farmer with the backwoods
manner but big and tender heart.
Il was difficult part. but Mr..
Fprsberg carried it with an ease
ssad sureness most pleasing. Scarce
ly less SssA saz be said of The work of
Mrs. Geo. W. johnson as Rose Gar
land, the unschooled but by no
means ignorant farmers daughter.
Mrs. Johnson's Interpretation of
the part was admirable. Mrs. F.
A. Rogers made a capital widow"
and Geo. W. johnson proved most
ardent and devoted wooer. It is
needless to say that he won out.
Miss Esther Sorenson and Harry
Fairfield as the "engaged' and
"disengaged" couple furnished a
good deal of amusement. as did
Viggo Larson as ALT Gordon and
Harold Ramsett as Jake Garland
Mrs. William Kent portrayed Mrs.
Gordon with the proper aloofness
and dignity, and Selmer Berg
played Jack Gordon with much feel
ing and sincerity.
The specialties were all received
with favor, and they helped great,
to dispose Of the unavoidable
"waits' between the acts.
The receipts were about $3.50, thu
largest ever realized from "a home
talent play here. Of this amoun
about $130 goes to the Mems Clu|
of the St. Luke's church. unde
whose auspices the play was given
Enough cannot be said about tn
excellent work of Mrs. Showalter
under whose direction the play wa
lpresented. The success of this per
formance as we'll as that of "Ne
vada" was due largely to her pa
tient and efficient coaching.

Fund of $40 Raised by Friends

In another column will be found
a card of thanks from Mr.. and Mrs.
Austin Amundson and family, for
whom a fund of about $40 was
raised by O. F. Landberg, car fore
man, and Mrs. John T. Swenson.
1t will be remembered that short
time ago the Amundson family
suffered siege of dipbtheria, and
that one daughter 10 years old died
from that disease The Amundsons
came to Willmar from Norway
about three years ago and since
that time MIR. Amundson has been
working as car repairer. Natural
ly the long siege Of sickness was a
heavy financial drain. and the fami-
ly is more than thankful both to
those who circulated the benefit
lists as we'll as to everyone that sub
scribed.

Swedish Author Wins Prize.

The magazines now all contain
biographies and sketches of Selma

won the distinction of receiving the
Noble prize for her contribution to
literature. On inquiry at the Will

of her books are to be found in the
Swedish section of books, and none
of the several excellent English
translations are to be found there.
The two available ones are "G0sta
Behring'S Saga" and "En Herre-

Office may be found two of her
works, "Jerusalem," in two VOL
