"sPaid i'm Full.

When play not only grips the heart
strings but plays an intermezzo on the
teuder chords, it bears the hall mark
of great success. 1t is not surpris-
ing, therefore, that paid in Full'' has
made an appeal which has been needed.
Eugene Walter actually lived the play.
He breathes his very existence into it.
1t is almost unnecessary to say at the
very beginning that the play is not a
sweetmeat. It is very strong food,
and should only be taken by those who
wish to harrow their very souls by a
chapter from the lives of everyday peo-
pie who are enacting the sordid tragedy
of existence where sin is not so gilded
that we are blinded by the glitter. 1t
is story of fallen, vicious, resentful
husband who has become SO embittered
in the daily grind that every spark of
manhood and honor has been wiped out.
He finally sacrifices his wife to smear
over, if possible, with his employer his
theft. The very goodness and inno-
cence of the wife is her most effective
shield.
With a powerful cast of players,
paid in Full will be submitted for
your approval at Royal hall, Sept. 10th.

best known residents of the town of
Christiana, was found dead in that
town at o'clock Friday morning, his
body lying with the head in what is
called Mud creek, in which position he
had drowned. It appears that he had
gone out hunting and in climbing over
a fence on the bank of the creek he
had, from some cause, fallen into the
water where he was found after an all
night search. Mr.. Roam was highly
respected citizen, and this unfortunate
event comes with a shock upon the
whole community Mrs. j. E. Simon
son of Cambridge is daughter of the
deceased who was one of the pioneers
of Dane county.

Cattle prices declined rapidly the first
half of last week, although receipts
We're below normal, but there were
signs of strength Thursday and Fri
day, with positive advances on she
stuff. The unsettled trade in meats
caused packers to hold their orders
down to a minimum last week, there
by discounting somewhat the effect of
the reduced run, and the general mar
ket closed the week with a net loss of
Is to So cents. Yesterday the supply
was 5000 head, smaller even than on
last Monday, and it became the buy
er's turn to show anxiety. Every
body was riding hard as long as the
supply lasted and prices today were
~ to 10 higher on all kinds. Most
dealers believe that the boycott has
spent it's force, although caution in
marketing is still urged, which would
become more legitimate the larger the
run. Nothing prime was here yester-
day. best steers offered going at $6.65,
bulk Of steers $5.10 to $6.15, cows at

also small, steers 1926 to $5,25 Sew
eral strings of Oil Mill steers from

ent days weighing 1,100 to Las lbs.
Hog receipts were heavy first half
of last week, and the market went

Dealers believe that prices will be

this law is more or less definitely
known, and if a million persons should
stop eating meat it would still have
only temporary effect on prices, con
sidering the tremendous stortage in
