JUDGE AMIDON
AT The NORMAL
FARGO JuRIsT GAVE TALK ON
WHAT He TERMED IN OPENING
HIS ADDRESS WAS TREASON
PRACTICAL ADDRESS FOR THE
STUDENTS.

Judge Amidon OF the u. s. district
court at Fargo was the speaker at the
chapel hour exercises at the normal
school this morning. The distinguish
ed jurist startled the students and
ladies and gentlmen of the faculty
with the tenor Of his opening words
which were thought strange falling
from the lips Of a federal jurist. His
remarks which followed, however. put
every one at ease for he showed clear
ly that there We're two kinds of
treason.
Opening his remarks the judge said
in substance he had come over to the
normal school to preach treason, but
not the kind Of treason they would
think about as soon as the words fell.
First, the treason he was preaching
was, that you study too much from
books and too little from life" and I'M
folding this idea the speaker was most
happy and practical and made this
assertion plain to the hearers to who
his remarks were addressed particu-
larry.
Second. Judge Amidon said, "a great
deal too much time is used in learning
what you do learn" And in discussing
this the speaker offered many valuable
suggestions. Third. like all Americans
they were disposed to educate the mind
to the neglect of the feeling.
Incident to his remarks the judge
paid the Moorhead normal a great
tribute, that it was truly one of the
best educational institutional institu-
tions in the whole country. He had
one daughter in the school now and
other of his children had been among
other student bodies in that school
and he deemed himself well qualified
to express the opinion he did.
Closing the speaker congratulated
the students and hoped they appreci-
ated to the fullest extent the splendid
educational advantages which they
had at their disposal-the best that
money can procure

Prominent vIoIinist.

Prominent among the first violin
lists in the orchestra which played the
accompaniment for the production of
Gallia and Stabat Mater by the Phil
harmonic club, at the Masonic temple
last night, was Harry Robert Beh-
rens, the talented violinist on the fac
ulty of the Dakota Conservatory of
music. Mr.. Behrens distinguished
himself at a faculty recital given a
few evenings ago, offering a pro-
gramme which disclosed the gifts Of
a born artist, very especially so in
Grieg sonata in which he was so
ably accompanied by Mrs. C. H. An
heier. In all of his work Mr.. Behrens
Is aided by sound technique, master
ly firnness and good taste and it was
conceded last night that he was a
very valuable addition to the string
section of the orchestra-accurate in
execution and always ample in ex-
preston.
