IS GIVEN
FOR new DIRECTOR

There was something doing every
minute last night at the Y. M. c. A.
and the new physical director in
whose honor the reception was given,
was of the opinion that he had struck
a live bunch Of association men, as
not only was the greeting given Mr..
Lamb a cordial one, but he was taken
the crowd in a lively fashion and took
the sports in style that met the ap-
prevail of the bunch.
The novel reception and entertain
ment was arranged by Messrs. Claw
son and Miller of the reclamation
service, active members OF the asso-
citation, and consisted Of athletic stunts,
musical selections and refreshments
consisting of cider, doughnuts and
apples.
The musical numbers of the evening
consisted of selections by the orches-
ira and vocal solos by r. w. Zim-
norman and c. j. Mckee. Wrestling
matches and other athletic stunts were
pulled off for those who enjoyed that
kind of sport, while checkers and
shuffleboard games were provided for
those desiring a milder form of rec
reation.
Mr.. Lamb has already taken up his
work here in the physical department
and last night his acquaintance was
extended as most of the members of
the association were in attendance.

scene of Thanksgiving today which
touched the hearts Of those in the con-
gregation and they gave freely with
glad hearts an offering for charity work
for the hospital maintained by the de-
nomination.
Special chants and anthems were rem
dered by the choir and Dean Everett p.
Smith preached an able sermon touch
ing upon the material prosperity Of tho
land, explaining why people should lift
their voices in thanksgiving for the
great increase in the number of people
who are working to make conditions
better in the communities in which they
live. but declared It was better still to
adhere to the text Of the sermon, which
was. THAT We may show forth Thy
praise not only with our lips, but In our
lives by giving up ourselves to Thy
service"
He cited several reasons why the
parish should be thankful for the past
year. and among the things he men,
toned was the fact That two OF the
members had gone forth in the home
mission field, one taking up work in
Montpelier and another at the Fort Hall
Indian reservation.
The attendance at the service was
large and the services were beautiful
throughout.

OF
. DICKENS CHARACTERS

William Sterling BATHS, Of national
reputation as interpreter of Dickins
characters. gave his program on Life
Portrayals" last evening at Emmanuel
church, being the second humber on
the Lyceum course. Mr.. BATHS devel-
oped In make up" the prominent
characters presented in Dickins' writ
ings, and as he did this he rehearsed
the setting of the story, it's value In
literature and philosophy. Then, with
remarkable powers of impersonation
of his character in hand, he gave the
audience selections from the writings.
His dramatic work has certainly never
been excelled in our city.
His first impersonation was that of
Dickens himself, which captured the
audience for its accuracy. as most of
us imagine the personality of MT.
Dickens.
David Copperfield. Micawber. Pick
wick and Uriah Heep and many others
were wildly portrayed. Grandfather,
in Old Curiousity Shop, was perhaps
a great favorite with most of the au-
dience in point of strong dramatic
art. Mr.. BATHS is certainly a genius
in the portrayal OF Dickens charac-
tiers and held his audience with rapt
attention in presenting some ~ or 15
of the leading characters in Dickens
writings.

Concrete Illustration of What Re-
publican Tariff Really Means

Concrete examples Of how pro-
tective tariff operates are causing the

All through the present tariff law,
passed by Republican congress and
endorsed by a Republican President

tions, the higher duty on the cheaper
