CONCERT BY The
NORRONA SOCIETY
NEXT MONDAY NIGHT WILL BE
ONE OF THE MUSICAL EVENTS.
OF THE SEASON AND IS BEING
ANTICIPATED IN BOTH cI-
TIES.

The Norrona Singing society Of
Moorhead is confident that the con-
cert 10 be given at Concordia college
next Monday night. is going to be the
best one ever given in the vicinity
and the members have spared neither
time or effort to perfect themselves
in their part OF the programme. The
selection OF soloists for this occasion
is an unusually happy one and the
evening promises TO be one Of rare
entertainment. The programme Sc
lected is considerably heavier than
usually attempted and the compost
lions to be used are some Of the best
of male chorus numbers obtainabIe.
The soloisfs, too. have selected num-
bers OF unusual beauty. and the In
terest in the programme viii increase
with each succeeding number rem
dered.
Miss Norma L. Olsen has selected
two double numbers. all Of rare beau
ty. particularly two numbers Of Mac
Dowell which will tax her artistic eff
forts to the utmost, but Miss Olsen
is an artist Of whom too much in
praise cannot be given, and her Sc
lections are always received with the
keenest enjoyment.
Miss Lillian C. Wright has, with
her beautiful contralto voice, won an
enviable name for herself with local
music lovers, and her appearance at
this concert adds considerable interest
to the event She has chosen for this
occasion, Ny Heart at Thy Sweet
Voice, from Samson and Daila, and
her rendition Of the beautiful solo will
be one of the features of the concert.
Oscar G. Martinson possesses BARI
tone voice of rich bell like timbre
with which he has delighted his
many friends numerous times, and he
will add not little to the enjoyment
of the evening.
Mr.. Martinson will sing two obliga-
to solos with fun chorus accompani-
ment.
The closing number Of the very
inviting programme is andkJending,
Grieg's masterpiece. In this exquisite
work he has set the beautiful poem
by Bjornstjene Bjornson, to music in
such a manner that it is one of the
favorite Morse numbers and one that
is used at all of the biennial gather
ings of the Norwegian Singers AS
ISOLATION of America, The tuneful
baritone solo, embodying prayer OF
praise and thanks, will be sung by
William M. Neshiem, accompanied by
the reed section Of the Concordia coll
lege band, and it is certain that Mr.
Neshiems splendid baritone voice has
never been heard to so good ad,
vantage as 1t will be in this number

thankful for RIsssinas.

Halstad journal; yoNext week Thurs
day is Thanksgiving day--a day set
aside for the universal Offering OF
thanks to our heavenly Father for the
benefits received during the past year.
The residents of the Red river valley
have special cause, to be so. While
almost every other part OF the coun-
try was complaining of drought and
no crops, we were blessed with rain
and crops that were above the aver
age. Still later when cloudbursts we're
doing damage all around the rivers
and washing away towns, we We're
exempt and again blessed. And at
the beginning Of winter, while bliz-
yards were claiming lives, threshing
stopped for the year in most OF the
western states, We were quietly showed
in but prepared for it. And many
other blessings that were showered
upon as, passed by others Yes, in
deed, let US be thankful.

DRAINAGE.

In designing drainage improvements
for district, according to statement
issued by the department OF agricul-
ture, the all important consideration
isthemaxium rate at which the water
must be removed. This run-off, as IL
is called, must in nearly all cases be
determined without actual measure
ment OF the flood flow. 1t is usually
assumed according to some empirical
formula that is limited in application
to conditions that may or may not be
similar to those of the case IN hand.
the result tempered by the engineers
Judgment and experience.
Run-off is greatly affected by the
amount and the distribution of tho
rainfall. the slopes Of the land surface,
the character of the soil, and the kind
Of vegetation. Also, from two drain
age basins much different in size, but
otherwise similar. the food flow from
the larger basin win be the smaller
per unit OF acre. The outline OF the
basin and the arrangement OF drain
age channels further affect the rate
Of Allow. Detailed Investigations OF
run off have been made during the
year in Arkansas. louisiana, Missis~
sippi, Missouri and Tennessee. The
Hood now from various areas OF known
size and character have been measured
To determine the relation of the several
factors At the same time investiga-
tions and gagings Of natural and arti-
fetal watercourses have been made to
determine their capacities under diff

INAUGURATION FErEs.
A Week Of Marching and Merrirnent
Proposed at Washington.

Proposed at Washington.
Springfield. (Mass.) Republican:
There is talk in washington about
turning the presidential Inauguration
into holiday week, to be filled with
attractions calculated to draw and
hold half a million visitors, to tine
local financial advantage. 1t is urged
that all the important business organi-
cations unite to urge President Taft
and the District OF Columbia commit
tees Of the senate and house to aid
the project.
Hitherto the inauguration time has
lasted only one day. The new scheme
would dim the glory Of the outside
features Of inauguration only by linn
ting the parade to certain picked
troops. There would be reserved for
the second day a parade of West Point
cadets and political clubs, to be re-
viewed by the president and vice pres
ident, a second ball to the vice presi-
dent would be the night attraction.
For the third day a parade Of naval
cadets. marine corps and fraternal or
gaizations, to be reviewed by the
president, is proposed. with a ball and
operas for the evening. For the fourth
day is outlined a parade of historical
and categorical organizations in the
afternoon, to be reviewed by the pres
ident. and at night bali and operas
again. So with variations would two
other days be filled with marching and
music.
All this Is ingenious, but such q
programme would prove mighty wear
ing. Would 1t enhance the dignity of
the central event? Could men and
women be persuaded to attend half a
dozen balls on succeeding nights
Would any president care to do 80
much reviewing In order to create legal
holidays for the coming Of dollars7 r.
the center of a circus a desirable place
for the president of the United States!

Old Fashioned.


One thing stands out distinct and clear
The midnight ride Of Paul Revere.
Although successful In q way,
Would very different be today,
For. though he did the best he could,
And, s5 the histories say, made good.
You couldn't muck expect. of course.
Because he only had q horse.
There were no autos on the ground,
And SO he did not stand around
And wish he had q yellow car
That he might spread the news afar
And break the limit set for speed
That all the country might give heed.
The car was not his one best bet.
1t hadn't been invented yet.
Had Paul been fixed on that good date
To run an auto up the state,
A forty horse car runabout,
He could have called the country out
And on his journey back to town
Have run the British army down
And scattered arms and heads and feet
All up and down the bloody street
Too bad he wasn't thus equipped.
That was a point on which We slipped.
The war. with all its wear and tear
Might have been ended then and there.
Seven bloody years we had to fight
And keep out pickets day and night,
And all because the doughty Paul
Had not an auto at his call.
