STANDARD oUARrEr GOOD.
Fair Sized Audience Enthused At Star
Course Event.

The Standard Quartet is ct"
If you question the assertion, ask
any one of the many who got rare
bargain in amusement merchandise at
the Baraga Opera House Thursday.
The splendid entertainment was enjoyed
by all.
The Standard Quartet scored one of
the greatest hits that was ever made by
any kind Of musical combination in
Baraga. The evening was almost an
unbroken series of encores with occas-
sional bursts of applause that were not
unlike an ovation.
The brilliant and particular star of
the combination is Ralph Oswald, the
basso profundo. He seems to be pretty
much all voice. 1t is remarkable that
such ponderous weight of sound has
not made the mediumly little man round
shouldered. And, too. it seems almost
incredible that one Of such apparent
respectability could go so low. Oswald
was not only great hit as a bottom
bass, but he was q clever humorist and
in the rendition of ''The Gobblins" he
had the audience going at gait.
But why give the second bass man all
Of the bouquets when all the members
were clever stars? The first tenor,
James A.. Grub, had voice of wonder
full height, sweetness and purity of tone,
and an enunciation that was distinctive
and charming. The second tenor, Geo.
Brant, had fine voice, too, and car
ried more pounds of steam than the very
high man. The first bass, the baritone,
Mansel B. Greene, was q sort of 'born.
to-blush-unseen member of the quartet
He was excellent filling, pleasing and
indispensable. but did not take role
that brought posies from the people
He did the accompaniment work, playet
q piano solo. and demonstrated that h,
was an artist in his lines.
1t seems safe to say that if all VIII,
missed the rare treat of last evening
had known what they were going Il
miss. they wouldn't have missed it an,
there would have been a packet
house to enthuse over the fascinating
four.

est daughter of Mrs. Amanda Ander-
son who lives southeast of Raymer,
was married at Sterling Monday after
noon, Dec. 18th, to Mr.. Lee Singer of
Mt. Vernon, Iowa, prosperous young
farmer living on his fathers farm
twelve miles from Cedar Rapids.
Both of the young people had home-
stead near Brushie, South Dakota, but
the groom had to sacrifice his home
stead for the sake of his bride.
The bride, who is school teacher, is
very charming young lady, a good
musician and an accomplished violinist,
but having an extra hat-box to carry
chats being very large this year, pre-
vented her from bringing her violin.
The hats were given to her as wedding
presents.
Both bride and groom received their
education in the Mt. Vernon schools
and also attended college.
They will make their home on the
groom's farm, where he has nice sew
en-room house ready for the occupancy
of himself and bride.

pull out her chair for her and tie her
napkin around her neck yourself.
Then, with low bow, seat yourself
opposite her and begin to praise the
food. Ask her to make sprightly re-
marks, and laugh heartily at them.
Urge her to tell you about the cooks
doings. Just before dessert, show her
the orchestra seats you have bought
for the opera for that night.
Never light cigar until you have
asked her whether she objects to
smoke. She may always say no, but
there is no telling when her taste may
change, and no gentleman will smoke
when his wife objects to it. Give her
twice as much as she wants for an al
lowance and always fore5tall any re-
quests she may be about to make.
In this way you will retain your
wife's love, and forever lead a Darby
and Joan life.-Suggested
