The Woman's Civic Club is re-
vlved. There are a few of the old
members with a progressive spirit
left, who could no longer bear to
see things standing still, for that
reason meeting was called to or
der in Masonic hall Friday evening
for the purpose of re-organizing.
The old spirit of unrest has assert
ed itself and they feel that they too
must be doing something for the
betterment and up-building OF our
little city.
1t is fast approaching spring and
the matter of taking care Of the
park proposition is called TO mind
1t was through the efforts Of the
Womans Civic Club that the park
property was secured and partly
cleared up and planted with trees
They feel that they have mater
ial interest in it and desire to car
ry their plans to completion this
summer.
The Townsite company has do
mated $3.50 and the town council
$3.50, provided that the Civic club
will raise an additional $3.50. Here
is clean present Of $500 to do
work with and the ladies do not
feel that they can turn down such
an opportunity, and are going to
work had to capture that prize
They have done bigger things than
this before and do not consider that
they have such terrible big job on
their hands if all will take an in
terest in the matter With this to-
tai of $3.50 expended properly, a
great deal of work can be done.
That amount should clear out all
the stumps, have the ground all
plowed and leveled off and sown tC
grass When all fixed up it will
make beautiful spot.
They are a live bunch and have
a record for doing things and we
know of no organization that can
handle this. matter as eXpeditiously,
so let US all lend I, hand and help
them out.
Al this meeting Mrs Zufeit was
appointed chairman of committee
with Mesdames White, Mayfield.
Monk and Samson as assistants, to
confer with IN Civic improvement
committee Of the Whjtefish Club.
SO that the two could work in con-
, junction with each other on this
park proposition.
The cemetery proposition was
also taken up and discussed. Mrs.
Samson, Mrs Houston and Mrs
White were appointed committee
to confer with the cemetery commit
tee OF the council and see if this
matter connot be fastened little
In order to get little fund start
ed it was suggested that a basket
ball team be organized under the
. auspices of the Civic club and play
an exhibition game with the othe,
local team at some date in the
Shoaf and Mrs Houston were ap
:, pointed to carry out these plans
! The next regular meeting of the
club will be held tomorrow after
noon in the quarters of the White
fish Club. Everyone is cordially in

Vice President NJ. c. Greene hit
the nail right square on the head at
the meeting of the Whitefish Club
last Thursday evening. He was
asked what the subject of the even
ing was and answered Enthusiasm"
Yes, enthusiasm was the proper sub
ject. Everyone seemed to be fairly
bubbling over with it.
The assembly room was filled
with a bunch of Live ones, and it
can plainly be seen that the house
committee will have to get busy at
once and purchase more chairs. The
vice-president and the secretary
had to take turns using one chair,
and when one of the members got
up to speak it was gobbled up by tn
one behind. Well, chairs are only
a small problem with an enthusias-
tic bunch like that get together
There will be chairs enough forth
coming as soon as they can get
here, but because there was a short
age at the last meeting is no reas-
on why anybody should stay away
from the next. Until such a time
as the new ones arrive the house
committee has been delegated to
go to the woods and cut a lot of
stumps and have them placed aroun
the room.
Someone has had the audacity to
infer that there we're some dead
ones in the club. Presiding Officer
Greene evidently was curious to
know how many there were in this
dormant state, and after the regu-
gan at one side of the room and
went the rounds of everyone pres
ent; asked each one to express him
self as to how he felt towards the
club and desired to hear any sug-
gesticns they had for the good OF
the order.
This turned out to be one of the
most interesting talk-fests ever held
in Whitefish, and it developed that
we have more coed public speakers
in the town then most of us thought
for. Everyone seemed to be in
spired with enthusiasm and made
nice little talks. Why, there was
enough enthusiasm displayed to
turn the old town inside out and
back again. Who dares to say ther
Is not boosting spirit in this town
All had different ideas about doing
things and what should be done.
but it was all for the same end the
betterment and up-building of White
fish.
The secretary managed to catch
few long hand notes of expression
made by those who were inspired
and goes to show that his efforts
to |iven things up have not been in
vain.
Mayor Mayfield being present he
was asked to state his views. He
said: This is the the first oppor-
Iuulty nave udu 10 dCIouu
meeting of the club, and ]
must say that l am more than
pleased. This is just what White.
fish needs. and by working hand in
hand with the council great things
can be accomplished that cannot
be done otherwise"
Claim Agent Tenner said: 1.-THE
club is long felt necessity filled, al
l shall lend every assistance l car
to make it q success"
H. C. Karow, superintendent OF
the Somers Lumber Company, re-
piled: "Co-operation is what we
need here in Whitefish, and by sc
doing l can see a great future fol
this section. You have my support
in any way that l can be of any
use to you
H. l.. Gloyde, principal of the
school, stated that he felt very en-
thusiastic over the club since he
found out what it was really organ.

MAY ROBERTS
 G0. IS G00D

To those, who through prejudice or through other circumstances, had the misfortune to miss the performances given by the May Roberts Company on Saturday and Sunday, it may be said that. although the company de- bends upon the patronage of the pub lie for it's support, they, the mdiyidu- als, were the greater losers.
 On Saturday night the bill, 'The Marriage of Kitty, was played to an appreciative audience, and deserved all the applause it received. The tide role. as depicted by Miss Roberts. was beyond question, the finest bit of act ing ever seen in Sllagway and al- though the part is essentially a com edy characterization, portions Of it contained enough of pathos to allow an insight into the capabilities Of Miss Roberts as an actress of great merit. Sir Torrngton Parke, the the titled Englishman. to whom the world and life tn general is "a beast ly bore. don't cher know" was played by L. V. Ginard, and was a specimen Of the quiet comedy that is so se- dom seen in these days of the slap stick variety of comedy. His portray al of the idle rich was first class. Ira Roberts, in the character Of Ken sel Rise. the godfather and legal ad- visor. had his audience anticipating every point. In fact he may be said to have put one over" Miss St John. as the nervous widow, Madame Desemiano. carried Che idea to the audience that the widow was more nervous over the chance Of losing the Parke fortune than of being deprived of my lord. himself This part Is rather difficult and was well rendered Robin Williamson. as Hampton the impertlnent office boy was up to the standard of the rest of the company. and Leonard Carey. as Burberry, the suspicious butler, almost made his audience as suspicious, although they knew better, as he.
 The play last evening, "The Judge and the Girl" was also an excellent bit of character acting on the part Of Che entire company. and especially fine was the work of Miss Roberts who proved herself to be quite as versatile as she is meritorious
 The monologues delivered by Ira Robertson and Robin Williamson on Che first night and the singing Of Mir. Robertson and the dancing and singing or Miss st. John and Mir vii. Hanson last evening would be a ere dit Co any vaudeville house I'm the States.
 To sum the whole situation Che eu- tertalnment is thc best ever seen in Skagwoy and is S25O show for an admission price Of DO cents
