Mr.. Southwlck's Reading.
The appearance of the opera house
Saturday evening well repaid the
students for the effort expended.
The effect upon entering was beau
tiful. The entire house had been
converted into a bower of green, up
on which the class colOrs marking
the various sections gave an effec-
tive color note. The stage was bank
ed with branches of locust trees in
flower with masses of white, while
from the arch was suspended a
white banner bearing in green the
words Glass of 1911"
The house was we'll filled and
the light summer gowns added much
to the festivity of the scene. The
students passed the time before the
reading began with their school
songs and cheers, and the ANNA
ton and enthusiasm that attends
such functions made it an occasion
long to be remembered.
Mr. Southwick has been in Man
kato so often and is so well known
that it is not necessary to say any
thing except that he was in his u.s.
ual happy vein and read Julius
Caesar" with the artistic apprecia-
ton of which he alone is capable

Mr.. and Mrs. Robert e. Brown
gave very pretty dancing party at
the pavilion i'm the White City Sat

about hundred young people and
young married people, and Lamm's
orchestra furnished the music. 1t
was the first time that the floor had
been used, and it proved to be a
first class dancing floor
A feature of the affair was the
elaborate decorations. The pavilion
is brilliantly illuminated both with
in and without with arc and other
electric lights, but in addition to
these, numerous Japanese lanterns
were used, and the large room was
made still more attractive with flags,
plants and flowers. The scene looked
like veritable fairyland, and the
guests were loud in their praises.
Refreshments were served in one
corner of the pavilion on small tables
during the evening. The party was
a most enjoyable one, and one Of
the prettiest ever seen in the city.
Among the guests was Mrs. Adolph
O. Eberhart of st. Paul, who is Wis
iting in the CITY,
Treat for st. Clair.
The people of st. Clair were great.
ly entertained by the Harmonic
band, Professor H. Frey, director,
Saturday evening. A concert and
an entertainment combined were
given at the town hall at st. Clair
by the Harmonic band. This was an
exceptional treat to st. Clair and

was never rendered there before.
The appreciation was testified by the
hearty applause given to every num-
Der that again several encores had
to be given. st. Clair has expressed
the wish that Professor Frey will
soon take his band again to this
village and present them with
