FIRE PROTECTION IS
NEEDED In MOSCOW

to furnish the water supply necessary
to adequately protect the town from
fire.
According to Superintendent Carl
son, the million-gallon reservoir
would supply water for six hours, up
on the same basis that the present
stand-pipe would last 80 minutes, and
it would not be necessary to start the
pumps until about that time.
In addition the water pressure
would be much better, as after the
first $4,000 gallons are drawn from the
present supply the pressure is prac-
tically nothing.
Citizens generally take very kindly
to the proposed pain for the new res
ervoir, as Moscow is now facing a
crisis in so much as the present res
ervoir is entirely inadequate to sup
ply water for any growth of popula-
ton.

Convinced that Moscow's system OF
fire protection is absolutely made
quate, and fearing that in case of a
serious blaze this city would be at the
mercy of the flames, Water Commits
sioner George Carlson, with the as
sistance of City Engineer Smith, is
working out plan to protect the city
from such a blaze.
The present stand-pipe, which res
ervoir Moscow's supply holds 100000
gallons and in case of a serious fire
Moscow would use that supply up in
thirty minutes, according to Mr. Carl
son.
Surveys made by Mr.. Smith show
that the old Taylor HILL south of town
is but 10 feet lower than the top of
the present stand pipe.
The officials are now drawing up
plans for million gallon concrete res

Perhaps the most pretentious of the
violin numbers was the Sjogren sonata
in E minor, to which the violinist in
vited unfortunate comparison from
casual audience by declaring it better
than anything of Greig's. 1t was a
seriously beautiful composition, with
a haunting, poignant theme, like the
sorrow that sometimes clutches the
heart on a beautiful summer day, but
it had not the living, pulsing color, of
Greig's music, nor the poetry Of his
Interpretation of natures moods.
Miss Alice NTcClung proved a pleas

PRETTY PARTY FOR
OMEGA PI SORORITY

One of the most pleasant college So
cial functions of the year was the
dancing party given Saturday evening
by the Misses Gertrude Miller and
Kathryn Keane for the Omega Pi sOr-
GRITTY. The party took place at the
beautiful Miller residence. The main
entertainment of the evening was
dancing, and three large rooms and
the hallway afforded ample space for
the twenty-one couples present.
Programs were distributed before the
dancing commenced, and the first
dance Of the evening was thoughtfully
arranged upon the programs given the
men,
The dancing ceased at 1870, when
refreshments, in two courses were
served. The young ladies who as
sisted in serving were the Misses Tess
Keane, Margaret Bourne and Bell
Willis. Partners for the freshments
were selected in novel way. A large
carnation, to which was attached a
card bearing the name of young lady,
was given to each of the young men.
One of the pleasant features of the
evening were the two vocal selections
rendered by Miss Irma Turner of w.
S. c., during an intermission in the

new SHOW
HAS FINE FEATURES

| MoscOw's new picture theatre is
nearing completion, and on "wednesday
evening F. M. Mitchell, will open the
Orpheum in it's new location and pre-
sent to the people of Moscow all that
is most modern in ten-cent show
shops.
The new Orpheum is in the Miller
building on Main street. 1t is SO feet
it's floor slopes to the front of the house,
all inch to the foot. The chairs are
large and comfortable, and there are
two aisles to facilitate seating. There
are 81 feet of exhits in the building to
protect it's patrons from fire.
A ventilating system has been in
stalled, which will give 1000 feet ca
pacity of fresh air to each person for
each show. The operating room is
also new and up-to-date, and besides
sides being sheathed in steel has1two
thicknesses of asbestos around it, ef
fectually preventing any danger from
fire. Another innovation is in the light
ing, the concealed lights in the cell
ing permitting the pictures to stand
out plainly, but making impossible OBJ
jectionable darkness.
The balcony will seat 100 people,
and is the choicest part of the house,
being fitted with roomy, upholstered
seats. No children, except with parents
or guardians will be admitted to the
balcony

SKOVGAARD'S PLAYING
BRILLIANT BUT HARD

Brilliant of execution, but devoid of
soul, was the music drawn Saturday
evening by Skovgaard from his price
less Guanarius violin. The technical
violinist might marvel at the Danish
musicians mastery of his bow, the
connisseur might revel in the mag
nificent tone of the instrument, but
the lover of music-the music that
tugs at ones heart strings-was dis
tinctly disappointed by his concert
Once the violinist struck a popular
chord with "Suanee River" which he
played with feeling and delicacy, but
the measure of the artist may be had
in his daring to play 1t as an encore
following the delicately beautiful
Chopin Nocturne Op. 8, No. 2, in which,
despite the marvellous tone of his in
strument, the violinist notably failed,
failed to put sympathy into his inter
probation; failed absolutely to express
the "unutterable longings of Chopin's
poor, and broken SOUL"
Skovgaard is violinist of skill. and
power; but, as an artist, is seemingly
impassive, and without magnetism.
He was at his best in the "show
