opera house Friday evening after

as a whole want TO stay and enjoy it.

young people do not care for such
amusements when Dodgeville debat

three or four Dodgeville young people
went to the dance and the only reason
it was given was to entertain the
visiting young people. There are
other ways to entertain visitors
whether they come for athletic
games or other purposes.
