The World Against Him.

This play was presented by COM
pany of home talent under the auspices
OF the B. P. o. e. last Friday night to
an appreciative audience at the opera
house. 1t was a beautiful story in four
acts under the personal direction of
Fred ] Weisard.
The company cannot receive too much
praise for the manner in which each
part was delineated Miss Ruth Cren-
shaw and Mr.. Weisard deserve special
mention. Miss Kathleen Watson as
Mrs. Lee played her part as a profess
sional. Miss Kate Morris as Sadie de-
serves much credit Wallace Moffett
and Corker jackson were well up in
their parts. Mr. Downing brought the
Villains applause, the Kisses, for his
good work. John Sanders was de-
tecitive" of the first quality. Miss
Coble and the quartette rendered some
very beautiful music. It was plain to
see that Mr.. Weisard and Miss Cren-
shaw were associated with good sup
porting cast, and much praise alto
gether is deserved for the success of the
play. The Elks are under obligations
to the company for its splendid work,

INSTRUCTORS TAKE
new POSITIONS
SEVERAL IMPORTANT CHANGES
IN FARGO COLLEGE FACULTY
NEXT YEAR-sEVERAL OLDER
INSTRUCTORS TAKE POSITIONS
ABROAD.

Next year will see a number OF i'm
portant changes In the faculty OF Fargo
college, some of the leading instructors
taking new positions in other Ameri-
can institutions and abroad.
Miss Morgan, the dean of women at
the college, will sail for Paris the lat
ter part of the summer where she VIII
assume her new duties as head of one
or the departments in the Y. w. c. A.
work there. She was offered another
position in the history department at
the University Of Wisconsin at Madi-
son, which she declined to accept the
post abroad
Miss Bestor, head OF the Latin de-
partment, will also 60 abroad at the
time of her resignation from the col
lege faculty with which she has been
connected for the past dozen years.
Miss Bestor Is vice president of the
Classical Association of Western COL
leges and Universities, which post she
will doubtless relinquish aso, as 1t is
understood Miss Bestor will marry a
member OF the German legation at
Rome on her arrival in Europe. though
the latter has not been officially an
nounced.
Professor Fisk, of the biology de-
partment will go to New York to ac-
cept fellowship in Columbia univer-
Hity in conjunction with some adj
vaneed work he viii take there. Miss
Heinsius of the college and prepara-
tory department, will accept a position
in the west.
These vacancies will be filled re-
spectivey by DIR. Lonn, of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, who will become
dean Of women, as announced in The
Forum some time ago. Professor
Luthe, principal of the Valley City
high school and a graduate of Oberlin
college at OberIin o., has accepted the
position of head of the preparatory
department, and will be assisted by
Miss Beckman and Miss Read.
Professor Brown has been engaged
to fill the post of DR. Stratton who
retires from the deanship to devote
himself to teaching. Miss Bestor's
position has not yet been filled. but
will be announced later during the
summer.
