"GET RICH QUICK WALLINGFORD"


 Get Rich Quick Walingford the famous comedy from the pen of Geo. M. Conan, will ba the attarction at the Elks' theater Thursday night.
 This play is one of the greatest successes that has been launched in the an1us2ment field for many sea sons. The tremendous vogue of the piece has been the means for secnr- ing for it tIe longest run ever re- corded in New York for a straight comedy, and everybody agrees that it is the best play Geo M Cohan's prolific pen has yet turned Out. This is indeed a tribute to young Mir. O. han, whose career has yet to record a failure.
 Prototypes Of Nallingford. the shrewd financial conspirator Of inc comedy classic, are to De found in countless numhars, but to vitalize aud visualize the type as the author has done. to present him in way that awakens the sympathy and com pels the love of an audience which, though realizing that he is 40 more not less than commercial huccaneel, are still in accord with his gei-ricFl quick schemes, is a piece of stage craft equaled by few playwrights cf modern times

M. Z. GIRLS GET MANY LETTERS
POstOffite Official Explains Conditions
In Columbia.

The situation which confronts the
Columbia postoffice force is peculiar,
according to one of the officials. The
University is the factor that causes
the complication. During the regular
session of school there are about
5000 more persons receiving mail
through the Office than during the
summer months. The government
makes no provision for an increased
Office force. So, during the school
year, the Office is overburdened and in
summer there is fifty per cent less
mail to handle. The postal officials
here say that, as class, the Univer-
sity people receive a very large mail.
Individuals, especially girls, often re-
ceive a large mail, chiefly letters.
The situation is more true of Col
umbia than other university towns
because other state universities are
generally in much larger cities than
Columbia. Where a city has a nor
NAL population of, say $4,000, an ad-
ditional 5000 persons has little appre-
ciable effect upon the postal service.

HAD TO TALK FOR DIPLOMA
Years Ago Every Senior in University
Had to Make Speech.


How would you like to make a
speech to get your graduation diploma
from the University? This is what
the seniors had to do when T. c. VII
son, secretary of the State Board of
Agriculture, attended school here. Mr..
Wilson was graduated in 1874.
Every senior had to make a
speech" he said yesterday. 1.-The best
orator was awarded $50 prize
There was more interest in oratory
then than now.
Each year the two literary socie-
ties. the Athenaean and the Union
Literary, invited some speaker of ma
tional reputation to address them.
The year 1 received my degree, Sena-
tor Dan w. Voorhees, of Indiana was
the orator. He talked on The Infiu-
ence of the Physical Sciences on the
Progress of Civilization
Mr.. Wilson still has a copy of SEN
ator Voorhees, speech.

FARM PRICES TAKE A DROP
But Still They Are Higher Than q
Few Years Ago.

The average of farm prices of i'm.
portant crops has declined about g.
per cent since the first of September
of this year, according to statement
of the Bureau of Statistics of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The prices on farm products
are now lower than they have been in
the last three years. They are IL
per cent higher than they were this
time in 1908.
The farmer is now getting 80 per
cent higher prices for his farm pro-
ducts, not including poultry and dairy
products, than he received on an av-
erage for the last forty-three years.
Corn is now three cents higher a
bushel than it was three years ago,
but seven cents cheaper than it was
a month ago. The farmer also gets a
dollar more for ton of hay now than
he did in 1909, but this time last year
he got three dollars more than he
does now.
Butter, eggs, and chickens have
brought almost identically the same
prices at the same season for the last
three years. They are about three or
four per cent higher now than they
were a month ago, due to the change
of season.
A bushel of potatoes and a bushel
of barley bring the farmer almost the
same price. but the barley has in
creased little in the last three years
while the potatoes have gone in the
opposite direction. In 1911 both of
these products brought higher prices
than they bring now.

to get an aeroplane, call in the fire

who defied their pursuers to follow
them led each other a merry chase
