Students on Strike

Losing the north end OF the county
by division isn't the only thing that's
worrying La Junta these balmy spring
days. There is trouble In the high
schnol-that high school which cost
u> nf this side so much and out OF
which we got so little.
The high school has a janitor. like.
wise a princi pal, seven instructors and
20 students, but the janitor seems to
be- most Of 1.-THE works" He refused
to take orders from Principal Thomp.
son or anyone other than the school
board, whereupon the Indignant prin-
cIpal went on strike Monday morning.
The other Instructors followed suit
and the entire student body, includ-
Ing the janitor's own son, walked out.
The janitor declines to arbitrate. the
school board refuses to fire him and
the professors and pupils will go back
only when they can dangle the scalp
OF the rccalcitrant broom wiclder ut
their belt. which seems remote con-
tingency from present indications.
Later-The war has been settled on
terms satisfactory to all parties aud
the sessions have been resumed.

SYMPHONY CONCERT
Is HIT AT COLLEGE
Large Audience Enjoys the Closing
Number of the Lyceum
Course.

/ Before a good sized audience the Au-
gustana symphony orchestra rendered
one of the best concerts it has given
in years last night at the college chapel
1t marked a fitting close for Mrs. Ger
trude HouselFrykman's appearance as
leader Of the college orchestra in its
annual concert, Mrs. Frykman having
resigned as head OF the violin depart
ment Of Augustana. This was also the
! last number on the lyceum lecture
course. The orchestra is composed of
25 instruments, being larger than in
former years. The work last night
showed they had been carefully drill
ed, playing together with a spirit and
a dash.
Ten classical numbers constituted
the repertory of the symphony musi-
clans for the evening and every one Of
the difficult compositions was well
rendered. The numbers being of a var
led nature, the versatility of the or
chestra was also brought out. If any
piece was rendered better than any of
the others it was the Spring Song"
iMendelssohn), bringing out to good
advantage the characteristics of this
composition. "Nocturno.' from Mid
summer Nights Dream" also by Men
delssohn, was especially well given.
Theo Moses Festival Procession" a
composition with a marchy air. was
well received. 'Elegie" (Massenet), a
violin solo. was well rendered by Miss
Margo Kohn. one of Mrs Frykman's s
advanced pupils. She played with fine
technique and much expression. An
encore was called for. Miss Helene
Forsberg, also an advanced pupil of
Mrs. Frykman, appeared to good ad-
vantage in two short violin selections.
"Cavatina" (Carl Bohn) and "Obertass
Mazurka' H. Wieniawski). Being a
natural musician. she plays with much
ease and abandon. al the same time
putting great deal of feeling into her
playing. The work of Ralph Lind
strom as accompanist is worthy of
special mention
