SOUGHT
NORTHWEST

--e residents and his friends every
where know that the success of the
band depended largely on him. He
has, at least, established his reputa-
ton in the twin cities to such an ex-
tent that other bands will have to do
the competing, while the Warren
band will remain at the zenith of pop
ularity and watch the others struggle
for public acclaim
Mr.. Johnson, however, showed his
interviewer postal, which tells a
good story. 1t came from profess
sional musicians of Minneapolis who
assisted the Warren band in the place
of an absent member The writer
speaks of the success of the Warren
band, but adds that he would prefer
to play at all times under the direc-
ton of Mr.. Johnson. That is fine
compliment to Mr.. johnson, and COM
ing from musical critic, it is good
news for the home city.
The band a few days ago received
an urgent request to be present at thee
North Dakota fair to be held in Bis
marck, beginning Sept rs and contin-
uing for three weeks. The offer of
such contract is the finest compli-
ment to any musical organization in
the Northwest. Directors OF the
North Dakota fair were present at
Hamline and in a quiet way asked for
information concerning bands, at the
same time listening to the music crit
ically. The result was that the War
rem band was singled out as the most
popular and best musical organization
and the invitation was rendered Mr..
Johnson without the usual and formal
inquiries about the ability of the
band.
Mr. Johnson also had invitations
from the South Dakota fair manage
ment for a two weeks contract at
Huron. The Roseau Comfy (Minn)
fair officials also sought the Warren
band All these invitations had to
be refused, as the Warren oasad .aoys
have regular employment in their
home city and cannot get leaves of
absence to fill so many dates.
AL. this proves that the Warren
City Band has made good" both for
itself and it's home city, which takes
a special pride in the boys, who es-
tablish a reputation for themselves
and their home in all parts of the
Northwest.

After all, in the country is found
the ideal home. There you see the

and every forest a fairyland. In the

MUSIC AT STATE FAIR AND IS
{ GIVEN INVITATION TO PLAY AT
NORTH DAKOTA EXHIBIT

The Warren City Band is sought in
all parts of the Northwest. The re-
cord It set at the Minnesota state fair
has been annotated by musicians ev-
erywhere, and invitations are now
pouring in from Minnesota and the
Dakotas. At the present time Bis
marck, N. D., is trying hard to "land"
the Warren band
AS result, there is no happier
man in Warren than Director George
G. Johnson, who yesterday spoke of
the success of the band at the State
Fair, as well as of the invitations on
hand now.
.'Our boys received much credit in
the Cities" said Mr.. Johnson, "and it
is assured that we do not have to so
licit place at the fair another year.
The invitation will come unsolicited
from the fair management have
been assured of that"
He added hesitatingly and with mo-
desty:
"Our band was rated above most OF
the others at the fair. The fact that
we were assigned to concert pro.
grams, which, we thought, would go
to more famous and advertised
bands, is evidence that the Warren
boys made good The directors
stated that the Warren band was
more popular with them than any 9th
er musical organization.
Then Fir. johnson smiled, and that
smile meant more on this subject
than a long interview.
:. The genial director gave the War
rem boys much credit. He said they
were always present ION the dot" an6
that they took undivided interest il
the performance of their parts, which
meant much to the success of the en-
tire band
'eAll the boys We're gentlemen" he
continued" and I can do nothing but
praise every member and give each
one credit for our success

anything about himself, but all War

Music by the Warren City Band
means much toward the success of
the fair That band has distinguish
ed itself in the twin cities and has
won renown throughout the North
west. The fact that such an excel
let organization is right from home"
will make it a pleasant feature every
day of the fair. It will supply music
in the agricultural building and the
sgrandstand during the day and will
render excellent concert programs in
the evening.
While all Marshall county residents
have seen numerous exhibitions Of
grains, grasses and all sorts of home
products, there will be much to learn
at the fair this year. Samples, gen
orally, will be better, and the expert
nents made by successful farme rS,
will be demonstrated, so that others
may profit and have the same success
next year. The farmer who is a stu
dent will derive the most benefit, as

mean greater success next year.

The fight against tuberculosis is

Ee will be assisted by the visiting
nurse, Miss Ida Olson.
DR.. Daugherty is noted for his
study of tuberculosis as disease. He
is in charge of state institution,
which seeks to curb the plague and
his faithful attention to duty, as well
as results he has achieved, places him
among the foremost experts of the
country.
The doctor is supplied with COM

POINTS BEHIND PRO RATA
CLASS AT FIRST EXHIBIT

Marshall county did not receive a
prize at the state fair, but the COM
mendations given the men in charge
Of the exhibit show that there was a
narrow margin between this county
and others. Lack of time was a great
setback TO the men in charge, SO they
could not gather the variety OF pro-
ducts necessary to place the exhibit
n the pro rata class. The only thing
sEarshall county lacked for getting a
higher average was canned goods, and
such were not to be had in the short
lime given the men in charge.
c. b. sjostrand, in charge of the ex-
shibit at the fair, said today that Mar

many counties which have exhibited
several years. This was the first
time our county had made an attempt
ito stage anything at Hamline. One
serious drawback was in the matter
of forage plants. good samples OF

count of the lateness of the season.

which is worth $l50. Many other
counties, which had exhibited several
years, fell far short of that. The su.

Dr.. G. S. Wattam, Member of the Ad-

Conditions are Generally Good Re

Those Afflicted with tuberculosis.
Dr. G. S. Wattam, one of the five
members of the Advisory Board for
the State Sanatorium for Tubercular
patients at Walker, returned last week
after trip to Walker, where he made
a careful investigation of conditions
in connection with. charges which

ner in which the institution has been
conducted relative to care of patients
and the supply of food. In an inter-
view, DIR. Wattam said:
II found conditions generally very
good. The patients we're unanimous
in stating that the care of the physi-
clans and nurses was excellent. They
were all agreed that the treatment in
this connection was good, all that
could be desired.
There has been some complaint re-
garding the food provided, but this
was prior to three weeks ago. There
had been a bad lot of potatoes, and
some of the eggs were not as fresh as
they might have been, but any house
wife knows how hard it is to always
get fresh eggs. There was also COM
plant as to the milk, and lack OF
cream for cereals.
"In connection with the milk, cream
and eggs, am thoroughly Of the opin-
ion that these should be supplied by
cows and chickens owned by the state

it is the only way that they can be
supplied in a thoroughly satisfactory

played havoc on the farm operated by

a feW minutes was reduced to ashes
by the flames resulting from the bolt.
The horses and harness we're saved

of hay was destroyed It has not
