Famous Cartoon Production Played to Good
Sized Audience at Morris Grand Monday.
The Buster Brown Company was the
bill at the Morris Grand, Monday
night at a regular performance and
Tuesday afternoon at q matinee and
was greeted on both occasion by fair
sized audiences. The company was q
very clever one and staged this pro-
duction in we're creditable manner.
The principals in the cast we're very
good, Johnny MoCabe as Buster acted
his part we'll. He is some midget and
as seen on the stage looked about like
an eight year old child. The class of
the show however was Babe Hudson
as Mary Jane. This little lady is a
good singer and one of the cleverest
little dancers ever seen here The
comedy parts of Mirandy and Seth
were above the average and some of
their stunts were very original, espec.
tally Mirandy. The chorus hardly
came up to the expectations of many
but aside from that feature the show
was indeed very good.

The "Hemple of Fame. :" q home talent

theatre going people Of the city. The
cast included about sixty young people

the direction of Mics McCune, a very
talented lady in this line of work, and
they we're exceptionally good in their
parts.
AS the title indicates, the piece in.

ancient and modern history and the
makeup of each would be credit to
many professional stage artist. 1t
would be difficult to single out any one
particular character and lay stress on
their ability and acting on these occa-
sions rs all were equally good. The
little tots however deserve special
mention for their drills and pieces as
they played their parts so unconscious
OF the audience and in such perfect
manner. The old fashined quadrille as
executed by them was one of the most
mirth provoking numbers of the en-.
tire performance.
The play was greeted each evening
by packed house and all we're more
than pleased. The young people under
whose auspices it was given realized q
neat sum which will be used in helping

Should Provide Funds For Farmers Institutes
And Short Courses.
Inc time has come when more atten.
tion must be given to advanced
methods of agriculture. Our farms in
South Dakota could he made to pro.
duce double the amount they are pro-
ducinp today if the men who are oper-
atipg them could be induced to put
into practice more and up to date and
economic methods of farming. Farm.
ing is more nearly an exact science
than is that Of medicine, but how few
farmers really understand even the
rudiments of that science.
The Farmers Institutes, carrying a
corps of practical farmers, are visiting
as many points over the state as its
limited funds will permit and is preach
ing the gospel of better farming, Of
better live stock, of better homes, Of
better business acumen, etc; but the
Farmers Institutes are handicapped
by lack Of funds. 1t is conceded
that the appropriation available for
this year will be exhausted before
many of the towns now scheduled can
be reached and many other towns not
on the regular schedule are said to be
clamoring for an Institute.
There should be number of Short
Courses, or Schools of Agricultural
Instruction conducted at various parts
of the state so that all might avail
themselves of this method of instruc.
tion. The Legislature at it's oomitR
session should see to it that funds are
provided so that all who desire may
have the benefit of Farmers Insti.
tute this year, and that both Institutes
and Short Courses may be conducted
the next succeeding two years.
The amount of money it would cost
will be mere bagatelle. but the good
that would acrue from 1t could never
he computed in dollars and cents. Let
the present Legislature do something
for the farmer. He has been feeding
us now let US show him in this way a
small measure of gratitude.

engaged in the publishing and other
business ventures. About three years
ago his wife died and early this fall he
settled up his business affairs there
and came to this city to spend the win
ter with his son. Up to the time of his
last illness he has enjoyed the best of
health since coming here and was very
much taken up with the city and its
people. He was a member of the
Presbyterian church and had been ac.
cepted by letter into this church.
He is survived by three children
namely, Rev. D D. Tallman, of this

ACIRL'S BEST FRIEND
Some Sound Logic By That Noted Evangelist,
the Late Sam Jones.


A mothers girl is worth her weight
In gold anywhere. But some girls care
more for one of these little dudes than
they do for their mothers. See the old
hen clucking around, and the little
chicks playing about her! A hundred
little birds may fly athwart the sky,
and she clucks on. but let chicken.
hawk dart in sight, and she instantly
gives chirp that brings every little
chick up under her wing. She in,
stinotively knows when there is danger
in sight. God Almighty has put in the
heart Of every mother an instinct to
protect her child from harmful in
fluences. II your mother dosen't like
the man who comes to visit you, give
