"THE CLIMAX" WAS FINE

Those who were present at the New
Theater Thursday evening had the
pleasure Of witnessing one of the
very best attractions ever seen on the
local stage. Much has been read and
heard of the Climax" but Thursday
evening va the first time that it has
been presented before a Sioux Falls
audience. 1t is different in many
ways than the usual run of plays.
There are but four characters in the
play, each of whom must be a finish.
ed actor and the two Of whom must
be accomplished musicians. The
mixture of comedy and pathos is SO
splendidly blended that one a hard.
ly tell when they stop crying to laugh
and when they stop laughing to cry.
And there were many in the audience
Thursday evening who both laughed
and cried. The play is out of the
usual in another respect, and that is
while there is a most attractive plot
running through the story there in nu
semblance of a villain. Even without
the villain the story is more attrac.

A VARIETY OF MODELS

American automobile manufacture
ers present to the buying public this
season 1927 models to select from.
There has been very little change in
them over last year, alterations in
body design being the chief differ.
ence. The trend has been strongly
toward Torpedo Bodies. The Fore
Door type has made a tremendous hit
and demands for that style of body,
have been correspondingly heavy.
One model offered this year is not
only different in body design, but
shows a vast change. The Hudson
"33" Is new internally as well as i IN
outward appearance. Howard e. COT
fin. who has been called the master
builder of cars, has been responsible
for the Hudson "33." His a of
European training are plainly dis
cernible in the latest Hudson model.
It has enclosed valves like the Euro
pean cars, its fan is combined with
the fly wheel, making the motor a
more slightly and accessible job. AT
the Automobile Shows held through.
out the country since the New York
Show opened January 7th. the $685.
has been infinitely inspected by mot.
orists. That Ns uptodateness has
been discerned and appreciated by the
motor wise public. il evident by the
fact never since the first "SS" was
put out, has the Hudson factory been
caught up on its orders.

The general usefulness of the good gas traction en-
CINE and the striking economies it affects ecommend it as
a highly profitable investment. The fact that it is solo
absolutely on approval and fully guaranteed makes it as
safe a "buy' as Government Bonds. 1t is certainly
greater profit producer.
Your desire to know what further benefit a goo(
gas traction engine would be to you will lead you to in
v~estigate.
Your requests for information to various concern
will bring you many letters and much literature. To EN-
able you to make a clear-headed choice, the following
suggestions are earnestly offered:
Don't compare a single or two-cylinder engine will
a four-cylinder engine. There is as much difference be
tween the two as there is between a single or two-cylinde
and a four-cylinder automobile, and you know
how great that is.

THE good gas traction engine is on
the job from January Ist until December
3Ist of each year. 1t is idle only when you
want il 10 be, and then requires neither care or
fuel. II IS "ahve" the moment you put fuel in its tank,
set the spark, and crank il up.
II can be used effectively for both traction and station
airy work, and there is no expense connected with it unless
i is running and producing profitable results.
A stableful of horses means the yearly reservation of
at least 20 per cent OF your grain. Oftentimes the very
grain reserved for horse-feed represents the profit on an
entire crop; and it generally requires several S25 or $50 a
month men to feed this grain TO the horses.
The farmer who operates with gas traction can sell
three out Of every four horses he owns. This reduction in
horseflesh will enable him to yearly market fully 50 per
cent of his grain, at the same time making him ~independ-
ent Of Indifferent, shiftless farm hands.

GARDEN WORK AT SCHOOL
Various Cities Feel the Need of Work
That VIII Turn Children to the
Country.

Every city that has done school
garden work has studied its own needs
In that direction and has followed the
subject in the way that will be most
beneficial. The point of view from
which Washington approached the
work has been that OF arousing civic
pride by giving better school surround
ings, and by the Improvement Of back
yards, all Of this to be accomplished
through its teachers. who should
therefore have special training for
this work.
Philadelphia, Boston, New York ana
st. Louis, with their large foreign
quarters. have felt the need Of aWork
that will turn the children toward Nshe
country; so in those places the SUBJ
ject has been worked out on large
areas. Aubdiyided into many small
plats. where children are taught the
value of intensive farming on small
tracts. But one experiment of the
kind has been tried In connection with
the schools in Washington, and this
work has another purpose for ita
foundation than those mentioned.

its object is accomplished

and it should be made of wood about
an inch in thickness. It is oblong in
shape, and the corners are rounded
and the edges bevelled
The rack illustrated is capable Of

tion OF these tools. I'VE rings are
screwed in along the center of the
board. The small sketch at the top
(A9, shows the kind of ring that
should be procured for the purpose
and which may be obtained at any
ironmonger's at a very small cost.
Two further rings are screwed into
the upper edge of the rack, by which
1t may be suspended from nails in the
WALL When completed. it may either
be painted or stained and the whole
cost of making 1t will not amount to
more than threepence or fourpence.

brass rings it will look by no means
unornamental.
