SPOKE ON DECISIONS
Dr.. Knowiton of Fargo College De
livered Excellent Address to
Students Today.

DR.. Knowlton, the head of the philo-
sophy department at Fargo college,
spoke to the students this morning on
Decisions, a very appropriate subject
at this time.
In a very interesting way DR..
Knowlton asked and answered the
questions: What is a decision? Who
is to make the decision? How is it
to be made? What should the motive
be? When should a decision be
made? and What makes a decision eff
fectiye2
The speaker showed that the word
decision implies a cutting off, a
choice between two alternatives. 1t
should be made by the person him
self. although the advice of his best
friends may be considered, "A de-
cision should be made in your better
moments said the speaker, when
you are actuated by your better mo-
tives. To be effective a decision must
be poured red hot into the mould of
action" f

At the Grand.

The Merry Widow, is one Of the best
of the many so-called musical coined
les and it contains some Of the best
and catchiest music, and has usually
been produced by very large compan-
les, but it is a question whether it
ever pleased a Fargo audience more
than it did yesterday when it was
presented at the Grand's inauguration
of a season of musical comedies, the
producing company being DeLoy's
Dainty Dundines, twelve in number.
The choruses were pleasing, the solos
brought forth much applause and each
and every individual was given an en-
core.
The work of the DeLoy family was
par excellence, Myrtle as Tina and
Tolla as the widow, making great hits,
while the comedy in the hands of
Harry Wolff and Eddie DeLoy was all
that it should have been. George
Beireg and A. Double, each had good
parts and the chorus was gratifying.
The bill was appropriately costumed
and staged with fitting scenery and
the musical numbers, ten in number,
all catchy.
The Merry Widow runs a full hour
and following and preceding it is a
reel of first class moving pictures by
the deluxe moving picture process. The
entire show is a m~eritorious one.
For the last three days of the week
the bill will be The Two Tramps, Civ
ing each member of the company
plenty of work and introducing some
new music and songs.

Co. and the applause was at all times

CO.. and the applause was at all times
generous.
The big bin of the programme was
that of Paul Case & Co.. in their
own new comedy sketch, The New
Minister, which was replete with
comedy situation, pathos and taking
dialogue. The different parts were
well sustained by a competent com
pany.
The Richards were again at their
best and introduced a new novelty song
that took exceedingly well.
Carl James, has a German dialect
turn in which he introduces some crisp
dialogue as we'll as several new songs.
DAILY & Shawbrook have a comedy
singing and talking act that permits
them to produce good wholesome fun
and they had to respond to several
! encores
Morgan e. Thompson, a clever song
and dance team made an instantan-
eous hit by their clever singing and
dancing and they have a new line OF
rapid fire stuff that caught on. Then
there were the Grhpeumscope moving
pictures and the orchestra. the whole
making a fine bill.

there is only one bit Of autobiography
in the book or play. 1t is an incident
of Mrs. Virgins school days when she
was Kate Douglas Smith and lived
with her parents near Hollis, Me-, her
childhood home. 1t was in a little dis
trict schoolhouse and the happening
had escaped Mrs. Virgins memory
until years afterward she met the
teacher who asked her is she recalled
the day when she had been told to
conjugate the verb ito know She
got along very well until she came
to the subiunctive mood, when her lips
began to culver and tears welled up in
her eyes, and when she reached the
words "if they had known" she broke
down completely and ended with the
sobbing exclamation, "Oh, it's such a
sad, sad verb, I can't bear to say it.,
Her imagination had overcome her
sense of the present and her heart
was filled with the idea that '1ife
would have been kinder to them, who
ever they were, if they had only
known. 1t is UGH bits of life as this
that make Mrs. Virgins play a de-
light and a lesson to people who have

The drama that thrilled all Paris
is the way Madame x is spoken of.
And this is literally true, just as 1t
it true that Madame X has thrilled
and moved to tears all New York.
Madame x is an adaptation from the
famous French success, La Femme *,
by Alexander Bissen, the marvellous
piece of dramatic craftsmanship that
created such a furore last year in the
French capital, and then over night
became the sensation of the American
stage. Henry w. Savage is the man
ager fortunate and keen-sighted
enough to secure this triumph for AM
erica. With a splendid company and
a production exactly like that which
has been used in New York, Madame
x will appear at the Fargo opera
house this evening. Curtain at 8
O'Clock sharp.
