IS
MAKING GOOD


sion of 1911 is making good. There
has not been a failure on the pro-
gram SO far. The crowds have in
creased every day since the open
ing. A great many of the best things
are still to come, and we look for
finish in attendance that will vindi-
cate the fine program provided.
The Metropolitan Ladies' Orches-
ira of Chicago which will be here
during the entire season is furnish
ing daily concerts that are the de-
light of all who come. Every member
is professional musician Of more
than ordinary merit, and they play
together with dash and finish that
is thoroughly enjoyable.
Miss Grace Lamkin's work with
the children and her daily round
table talks to teachers, parents and
others is new feature here that is
winning it's way. Miss Lamkin is a
director of physical training who
stands second to none in the country
in her lines and the fact that she has
only about sixty children yet with
her instead Of two or three hundred
is due entirely to the fact that par
ents do not realize what boon they
are denying their children when they
fail to place them under her influence
for the week. If you are in doubt
attend one Of her round table talks
after the afternoon program.
The Willmar Military Band is in
good form and are furnishing daily
concerts which are appreciated by
all. 7 he geat program they have
made during the past year is mark
ed by all. Willmar has now a band
of which it may be proud.
The platform is in charge Of DR..
Lanham, who gave three lectures at
last years assembly. He gave a
lecture-sermon Sunday night and
lectured on the Gland Of Possibili-
ties" Monday night. His daily Bible
hour beginning at l AS p. m. is draw
ing growing class. Besides his
work as platform director and Bible
instructor, he has one more number
on the program to fill next Sunday
evenings sermon-lecture, which we
are sure no one will wish to miss.
Col. Geo. w. Balm Of Kentucky
lectured. last Saturday evening and
Sunday afternoon. Hs fell in love
| with Willmar at first sight, and the
Willmar people who heard him recip-
rocated the feeling. No one could
possibly hear one Of his lectures
| without being better for it. With a
platform experience of more than
forty years, he combines the ripest
knowledge with rare eloquence
sparkling wit and touching pathos
Col. Balm will come back to Wilma,
for future assemblies if still avail
able. That is the universal wish OF
| those who heard him.
Hon. Edward Russell Perry from
| New York City captivated the larg-
est audience 80 far of this season
last night in his great lecture "Sam.
son Aroused" Public opinion is the
Samson which Mr.. Perry is trying te
arouse against public abuses. HI
speaks again tonight on the subject
Of "The Golden Cornfiela" and We
predict large audience.
The Executive Committee made
announcement last night, Of a spec
ial rate of admission for children
to the grounds Of 10 cents where the
children do not occupy a seat in the
auditorium which will be in force
hereafter. It was also announced
that number of auto owners have
agreed to carry passengers to the
grounds or back for l5c either way
These autos will stop for passengers
at Carlson Bros. store on Fourth
street.
Look over the announcement o1
the features still to come in another
part Of the paper. Study up the AS
sembly program which has beer
mailed to you. Every loyal Wilma,
citizen should come out to every ses.
sion for which he can possibly break
away during the remaining days
That is the least you can do to help
make the Assembly a success.
