RUBY THEATRE OPENED
Webster Now Has One of The
Best Picture Shows in State

BEST PlCture SHOWS in state
The Ruby Theatre opened Monday
night, under the management of Miss
Ruby Leen, and every night the house
has been filled to its full capacity.
The theatre has been greatly improv-
ed by the new management-in fact, it
will now compare favorably with the
best in the state. The walls have been
beautifully decorated in panels, COM
Portable chairs have been installed,
mating laid in the aisles, the lights
rearranged, and the theatre is now an
attractive and comfortable place in
which to spend a pleasant hour.
One of the principal features of the
theatre under the new management is
the music furnished by the orchestra
composed of Miss Alpha Peterson,
pianist; Miss Lillah Leen, cornetist and
Miss Ruby Leen, violinist, and the Illus
trated songs by Miss Julia Aldrich.
The music is excellent, and lovers of
good music show their appreciation by
patronizing the house literally.
A new motion picture machine has
been installed, and as the management
is securing its films from one of the
largest firms in the northwest, the pic
lures are all that could be desired. Two
shows are given each evening, and
matinees are given Tuesday, Thursday
and Saturday afternoons at $3.50 o'clock,
an admission fee of sc. being charged
school children at the Saturday matt
nees.
Mr.. Leen deserves credit for the
great improvement he has made in the
theatre, and for the manner in which
it is being conducted. He deserves a
liberal patronage, and to judge from
the opinions expressed, he is certain to
receive it.

creased cost of conducting the various
state offices, amounting to nearly $3.50,
900, the Performers" have burdened
the state with eighteen new offices.
Just why it was necessary to create
these offices is the great mystery of the

The Difference

The stalwart state treasurer has con.
Quoted his Office during the past two
years for $500 per year less than his
predecessor. This is the only office that
has not used from 25 percent to 200 per
cert more money than was found nee
essary under staiwart rule. 1t might
be we'll to add that the state treasurer
is a stalwart and that the balance of
the offices are filled with "reformers'
who were elected on a platform of
economy.

friendship from their friends in this
city to his wife and children, and will

accord them a cordial welcome when
they decide to come and make their
home with us again.

THE LAST ESPECIAL" VOTE OFFER
Final Opportunity to Secure Extra Votes.
test Interest at High Pitch

Announcement is made this week of
fine special offer of extra votes. This
is for few days only; and it is an as
sured fact that contestants will avail
themselves of this last opportunity to
get votes in excess of the regular seed
ule.
The last issue contained the last OF
the newspaper coupons. The only way
to secure votes in the future will be by
getting subscriptions for the Reporter
and Farmer and trading at the stores
where merchant votes are issued.
In order to keep an office record from
which to figure special-offer votes, all
subscription ballots have been issued to
individual contestants. Their respec-
tive names have been written on each
of the ballots and on the stubs which
are numbered to correspond with the
ballots issued. These votes are not
transferable and are so marked. They
can be voted only for the contestants
to whom they were originally issued.
Beginning next Thursday, May 5th,
however, all votes will be issued in
blank. No record will be kept of the
names of the contestants to whom sub
scription ballots are issued, and the
contest manager need not know to
whom the votes are going. Voting bal
of the proper denominations will be
issued, and the names of contestants
may be written in afterwards. By
adopting this course, no one in any way
connected with the contest can know to
whom votes are being credited.
After next Thursday morning all
votes may be deposited by contestants
or their friends in the ballot box with
out count by the contest management
The ballot box will be locked and sealed
and the keys turned over to one of the
judges, so that the contents can be
known to no one until after the judges
make their count on the closing night.
This method of closing the contest is a
guarantee of fairness to all.
Prizes Guaranteed
The violins, mandolins and guitars to
be given away in this contest have been
unexpectedly delayed. They were ship
ped from Chicago and should have been
here several weeks ago. 1t has lately
been learned that they were by mis-
take sent to Webster, North Dakota,
and they have been ordered sent tc
Webster, South Dakota, at once, and
are expected any time.
These instruments are guaranteed tc
be of excellent value They are of the
same high quality as the piano, and viii
stand any reasonable test to which they
may be put.
The government authorities have put
the stamp of their approval upon the
recognized integrity of the Stone Con
test Co. by continually permitting the
publications through which they worl

ance with Day county people and their
needs, makes him eminently qualified to

More Contest Interest.
Interest in the contest is growing
more and more intense as the end APP
proaches. The rivalry among the con-
testants is keen but good-natured and
the candidates for the head prizes are
bending every effort to secure a lead.
All contestants for high honors realize
that the steady, persistent workers are
the ones who win. Untiring energy
and irresistible determination charac-
terizes the spirit of the contestants as
they enter the last lap.
Conjecture as to the final outcome is
heard in all quarters, though any at
tempt at an accurate forecast of the
result is out of the question. The
friends of the various contestants are
backing their favorites to a man, and a
score or more of guesses would be re-
quired to name the first prize winners.
