re Loss.

The entire city will sympathize with
the Walker Theatre Co. in the loss
OF its theatre-or operahouse, IS IL
was called. Targoans as a whole fully
realize and appreciate what the Walk
ers have done for Fargo in a theatre
cal way and will be sorry if they
have had a heavy financial loss after
giving the city first class shows for
many years at little profit.
But, although it may come with poor
grace to say it, the city will un-
douptedly benefit through the fire,
The announcement made in another
column of The Forum tonight, that
the Walkers are to put up a much
finer and larger theatre, proves this.
The city will regret the loss Of the
shows, especially the opportunity of
seeing David Warfield, but the news
that a fine, new theatre Is to take
the place Of the one burned win go
far toward mitigating this annoyance.
The greatest benefit to the city,
however, will come because it will
bring to a head the auditorium mat
