''The Fair Co-ed'' to be Presented
Monday Evening

Monday Evening
At The Colonial on Monday, Oct.
18th, VIM. G. Stewart offers Chas.
B. Dillingham's original production
''The Fair Co-ed," by George AIDE
and Gustave Luders, with Hattye
Fox in the principal role of Gym
thia Bright.
Mr.. AIDE wrote "The College Wild
OWL and he also wrote 1.-THE Fair
Coed and they fay be termed men
tai twins. The scene of the former is
laid at Atwater; the locale of the
latter is at the rival institution of
learning, Bingham.
The success of ''The College Wild
owl was due to it's bright lines and
clever drawing. The idea of having
in co-educational college one
woman who is beloved by everyone,
from the faculty to the janitor, saw
ors of the farcical and that is what
f"The Fair Coed really is-a must
cal farce.
Mr.. Luders has written some
clever music and his arrangement of
college songs, sung by a stentorian
male chorus, will anyways a
male chorus, will always occasion
much pleasure.
The company is large and COM
posed chiefly of youthful looking
men, although bunch of whole
some looking girls swish their skirts
on the slightest provocation, certain
ly add attractiveness.
Alma, Where Do You Live?
A good house was on hand to
greet Alma at The Colonial last Fri
day night. Miss Collins, as Alma
did splendidly and many could be
heard either humming or whistling
her catchy song after the show. Mr.
Friend, as Theobald, was a great
hit and Pierre LIE Peach in the per-
son of Mr.. Bogues was well acted.
The many encores testified to the
enthusiastic reception by the audi
ence, and those who did not see it
missed treat.

FRIDAY, AUG. rs, 1911.
VALUE OF THE SMALL
NEWSPAPER.

There is a very lively agitation
going on in the state press over
the question of the deluge of free
matter that they are being con-
stantly asked to print and much
of which they are actually print
ing. There is no business extant
from which so much gratis work
is expected as from the news
papers. While this is true of all
newspapers, it bears with great
est force upon the smaller news
papers which lack the variety of
resources the big communities
afford. They are expected to
advocate everything that is for
public interest which is reason
able and within due bounds, but
many things that are sugarcoat-
ed under the guise of public in
terests too often conceal private
interests that solely are bene-
fitted byN'the deadheading and
are oftentimes really inimical to
the public welfare.
There is no class which gives
up so much to the public interests
as these small newspapers, and
there is no class whose work
gets so little recognition and usu-
ally such little compensation.
Every enterprise in the commu-
nifty expects recognition it ex-
poets to have constantly poured
forth to it every aid, while on
the other hand it rarely expects
to reciprocate, and when it does,
and that with very bad grace, it
does so little that it might be
called infinitesimal.
There is no investment that the
small community can make which
is equal to the well-conducted,
self-respecting and self-sustain-
ing newspaper. 1t is the mouth
piece of the community so far as
the ,ontside world is concerned,
and by it the community is most
often judged. AS a matter of
fact, it is good reflex of a COM
munity. For this reason it de-
serves to be sustained as a COM
munity investment. The whole
community should not be united
as it now usually is in deadhead.

should be respected and it has

crop yields mentioned in the

Whenever the country news
papers find foreigners invading
the field of the home merchants
with goods and merchandise and
selling them to farmers, they are
asked to raise and whack the in
truders and advise the farmers
to buy their goods of the home
merchants. And when foreign
printing houses send their repre-
sentatives among the merchants
and business men, many of these
same merchants give them their
orders and get inferior work for
their money. That is reciprocity.
