OLD TINE PLANTATION
SONGS AND MELODIES
An Attraction OF Unusual Merit VIII
Be Here Tuesday Evening,
December

People who have been in the
south and heard the old plantation
songs as sung by negroes every
where, are always disappointed by
the colored minstrel troups that
travel through the north. Musical
training and q desire to shine as
operatic stars have robbed the
plantation songs Of much of their
charm. People who have heard the
cotton pickers tune up at work and
the ordinary minstrel company very
much prefer the same old songs
sung in the same old way" While
any colored company will delight a
music loving audience, the longing
for the old plantation songs Is not
satisfied by the rendition of more
pretentious music, however well it
may be done.
Carter's Virginia Warblers prom
Use to give the people what they
want. They come with a reputa-
ton equal to any like company,
the "old songs" Anyone who has
built up and sustained by singing
heard a thousand colored voices,
stirred by religious zeal, or half
hundred cotton pickers beguiling
the hours of toll or the care-free
negroes ON the river steamers or
levee, will welcome a chance to hear
them again. If the Virginia War
blers give the kind of an entertain
ment indicated by the press notices,
it will undoubtedly be the most
popular of the season.

Permanent Exhibits of Product


To exploit the resources and aid
in the development of the American
Northwest. the Northwest Develop
ment League will place a permanent
exhibit of the products of the soil,
lakes, rivers, forests and mines of
the various states in a big display
room and show them to thousands
of people who pass through and VIZ
it the city of st. Paul-the gateway
to the northwest territory.
This state has been invited to oc-
cupy several hundred square feet of
this space without cost as the Saint
Paul Association of Commerce has
entered into a contract with the
league to furnish the display rooms
in one of the new buildings of that
city, rental free, If the league will
furnish light and maintain the dis
play. The other has been accepted.
The plan is simply to show every
person who transfers in ST. Paul as
well as those who visit and live
there, comprehensive exhibit of
the products of the following states:
Minnesota, North and South Dakota,
Montana Idaho, Washington and
Oregon. The exhibits will be con-
Quoted without prejudice, the league
publishing uniform information
about each state in attractive book
let's, distributing them and securing
the names of all visitors which will
be furnished the commercial clubs
and the immigration officials of
of each state.
I'VE ought to show from ten to
twenty thousand people every month
this exhibit-we sure will show
more than five thousand on the
average and in the tourist season
as high as thirty thousand

bell. More than one hundred
thousand people year many
right on their way to look over
Canada, will get our literature,
lot of personal information, see the
exhibit, have their names sent to
people who will follow them up and
become wise as to what is possible
in the American Northwest.
1T is the biggest thing which has
happened for a long time and the

better agriculture and a better de-
