DEFINITE PLAN FOR THE MUCH

mittees, one from the commercial
club and another from Co. b have
been appointed to work together and
they will meet either this afternoon
or tomorrow to discuss ways and
means.
The committee from the commercial
club consists of James Kennedy, III.
L.. LOOMS and J. B. Folsom. They
were appointed about a week ago, but
owing to the fact that Mr.. Kennedy
has been out of the city they ave

tee proposes to go ahead and build
an auditorium, and will probably work
with committee from Co. E for a
joint armory and auditorium.
AT the banquet given Saturday
night by the losing squad of Co. b,
the proposition Of building an armory
was brought up Lieut.. Wayne EDDY,
in al address, told of the necessity of
an armory, not only for use by the
company, but as an auditorium. An
is to be built in this city
whether the company enters into the
movement or not said Lieutenant
Eddy, referring to the action of the
club, land we can get a.
better armory and the city a better
IL the two propositions
are joined"
The matter was further discussed
oy Captain Fraser, in which he urged
immediate action and the appointment
Of a committee, with power to act.
The matter is being gone after in
in the city, AMI il we ar to
get into the proposition we won't have
lime to first refer it to the company
Ind then back and forth for an in
definite period"
Capt. r. A. Thompson. president of
he civil organization of the company,
vas present, and at the call of ten of
he members present special meeting
vas held around the banquet tables,

N. D. SOCIETY
DOES GOOO WORK
STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY DO.
ING CONSIDERABLE FOR THE
sTATE-WAs ORGANIZED IN
1895 AND HAS ALREADY DONE
MUCH TO PRESERVE HISTORY.

An organization rendering timely
and Invaluable service is the State
Historical society of North Dakota.
Organized in 1895, the society was re-
organized in 1908, and since that date
mas been under the efficient direction
or Prof. o. G. Libby, head of the de-
partment of history i'm the University
Of North Dakote at Grand Forks.
The society's library and museum
occupy rooms in the state capitol at
Bismarck, the Office of the secretary
is located i'm Grand Forks. The society
renders the state varied service. A
complete file of all newspapers i'm the
state Is kept in bound and easily ac-
cessible form. This collection is of
especial interest for the new and ran
idly growing towns in the western and
newer part of the state. The paoers
now received number 800. There is
also reference library of several
thousand volumes on the state and
northwestern history.
The museum is treasury of re-
mains from the three historic tribes of
the state-Mandans, Hidatsa. and Ari-
kara. OF the two former tribes the
collection is unique and is the ONLY
one In existence. Its value increases
with time, and is greatly enhanced by
the additions form the annual field
work and surveys of Indian village
sites. The material thus preserved
would otherwise have been DESTROYED
and lost
Valuable are the annual reports of
which the third volume is now in pre-
paratlon-to appear soon. The vol
umes contain maps OF chief village
sites, reports, logs, diaries and the re-
suits OF extended Investigations. AL
ready this work has received generous
praise from critics competent to Judge
A state history and social science

lied as section of the State Educs-
tIonal association. The object Of this
organization is to stimulate inter. n :,
local history and loyalty to state in
terests, and to. cultivate a larger and
more intelligent interest in the nroner
methods in history teaching. In con-
nection herewith free illustrated lec-
lures are provided wherever ca;ied for
the purpose being to promote popular
interest and knowledge and to invite
citizens to cooperation. Secretary
Libby is saving North Dakota from

Mrs. Wigs of the Cabbage Patch.

Rarely has Tupelo had the opportun-
ity of witnessing such d splendid COM
edy as vas presented Wednesday
evening at the opera house by amateur
talent under the auspices of the Glen
wood Cemetery Association, when
''bIrs. Wigs Of the Cabbage Patch"
the Princess of Patches" and other
peculiarly patched people appeared in
the House of a Million Patches"
Much histGionic talent was evidenced
in the local caste and it was the con-
sensus of opinion that the acting of
the evening vas up to a high grade of
perfection, and frequent bursts of APP
clause from the audience showed their
appreciation and enjoyment.
All parts were we'll casted and well
taken, and there was not a du | moment
from the rise to the fall of the curtain.
A large audience greeted the FER
formers, and all left loud in praise of
the splendid entertainment and of those
under whose management it was given.
Miss Sanders, of Jackson, Tenn, d.
rected the entertainment.
